Thom Yorke Endorses Another Green Movement
StopGlobalWarming.org pulls over a million, including most prominent names in rock.
StopGlobalWarming.org is the latest cause that everyone's favorite profound pundit, Thom Yorke, is shoving in the faces of the collective Radiohead fanbase. It's an online petition with more than one-million signers voicing their want of the American Government to freeze and reduce carbon dioxide emissions across the board.
Sure, this whole UK Rocker telling America what to do shtick is getting pretty old.

Go sign the petition if you agree or rant below about why online petitions do little or why you're sick of Thom Yorke championing anything green.

The Swine Flu Mixtape

Hysteria took over a few weeks ago with the spread of Swine Flu across the globe. The news and media was flooded with warnings of a possible epidemic. Trips to Mexico were canceled, Purell was purchased in large quantities and I even saw a few people wearing facemasks to cover their mouth on the train. Sure, Swine Flu has killed less people than the regular flu, but the media took it and ran with it...
