The fucking hypocrisy of the religious right in America is practically vomit-inducing at this point.
Religious right households have a tendency to kick GBLT children out on the street so that they're homeless at a VASTLY higher rate than any other segment of the population. At the same time, the people within the movement are attacking anyone who is homeless as lazy bums who need to get a job. However, when the GBLT young adults try to get a job, the religious right is firing them from it just for being GBLT in the first place, and fighting tooth and nail against putting protections against that so that they can actually work and make a living-- all the while they're also also trying to tear down hate crime laws so that the violent criminals who attack homeless people can be as violently homophobic as they want and practically get away with it.
Jesus wept.

"Love the Sinner, Hate the Sin"
If you believe in this, you are a liar.
By saying this in response to gay marriage, you are explicitly saying you believe that the love they share between them is a sin against God and that it should be torn apart, ripped asunder. It is unequal, it is lesser, and they are less human because of it. Using mistranslations and re-translations (don't think that everyone has forgotten that American protestants changed the wording of the bible for the sake of politics) to justify hate is nothing but an attempt to defecate on Jesus' message.
I am not as gentle as others are about this topic-- nor do I claim to be. Actively hurting people because you call them sinful is, itself, a sin against God. As is preferring children to starve than to associate with "sinners"-- if there are fiery pits of hell like many such bible-thumpers believe in, then that is a sin explicitly stated in the bible that you will be thrown in to it for committing. Lying is also a sin, ESPECIALLY lying in order to hurt people-- which is something that bible-thumpers love to do. Reducing people to nothing but their sex drive is nothing but hate as well.
Love though, is not a sin. Be it the gentle, playful love of a close-knit family, the passionate love of newlyweds, or the everlasting love of lifelong partners, love is the opposite of sin. Love is, in fact, God.
There is too much pain and suffering in this world. Stop spreading more...

DVD Burning is a pain in the ass.
Every single dvd burning software is full of bugs, bloatware, spyware, bugs and bloatware, bugs and spyware, or bugs and bloatware and spyware. No exceptions.
They all require me to jump through hoops just to get their basic fucking functions to work-- just to burn data to a dvd so I can back up files and save space on my hard drive.
Every single time I try to burn a dvd something goes wrong and I have to spend hours fixing it-- and, inevitably, the customer service of every single one of these programs sucks more proverbial ass than a gay black hole with a scat fetish, telling you a few basic things you need to do, then ignoring you after you say you've done them (or just repeating them, which means they're probably actually forum bots rather than real human beings).
ArcSoft, Nero, DeepBurner, CDBurnerXP-- no exceptions. They're all like this. Why the hell can't someone create a simple, barebones dvd burner for backing up files that actually WORKS without having to reconfigure your computer a dozen times and restart it half another?
