24 Percent Majority

The fact that I spent ANY time reading a political blog this morning came as a huge shock to myself, let alone any of you.  I have RELIGIOUSLY avoided politics for my entire life (now there’s a statement, eh?), but after I saw 24 Percent Majority plugged on Boing Boing last week I thought I would check it out, and I liked what I saw.  Basically the whole site is critical of the Harper government, but it’s an enjoyable, rambling read.  If you read nothing else, be sure to check out the wrap-up of the craziest crap the government has done this year.  It’s almost enough to make me become a real grownup and pay attention to stuff like this.  Almost.  🙂

Still, nice work over there, I like it.  Definitely a lot of research and linking going into those posts, and a good engaging tone.  You must be doing something right if you kept me reading to the end, and I even clicked on a few things to read more!  My god.  This fit of mature, civic responsibility will certainly pass soon.  Or is this what my 40’s will be?  A gradual awakening to the world at my doorstep, an ever increasing involvement in my civic duty as a voter and a participant in democracy?

Ha, probably not, and I’m sure this blog will soon revert to whatever stupidity I’m looking at on the Internets real soon now, never fear.
