How come DU is so pessimistic about climate change?

Shouldn't we be taking steps to help stop it? Obviously our first step is to get rid of those wackos in congress in November. But we all should do small things to help. Instead of saying "Ah we're all gonna die!" we should say "We might die, but to make things better let's walk to work/school, recycle, turn off necessary lights, and vote in November."

I got in a fight with my parents today...

For my job I'm going to get a little over $8,000 a year, which I think is too little for a college student. While my parents think that it's fine. My parents are both democrats but I'm more liberal than they are, so while I was complaining on how bad the minimum wage is and high tuition, they started calling me a socialist. Since when did my parents become part of the right?

I tried telling them how it was easier for them back in the day, but they still didn't understand. I'm just frustrated with what happened and I'm almost crying right now. I want to move to Canada.

During the primaries...

I will vote for the most liberal person of them all. If Hilary wins I'll vote for her in 2016. She's still better than the maniacs on the far right. But that's not important, we have a little over 4 months to take back the house and win the senate. If the repoops win we'll have 2 more years of nothing. GOTV for 2014!

The World Cup has won me over.

A couple of weeks ago some of you may remember my dislike of soccer, well, after watching some matches I am now a fan of soccer. Me from a couple of weeks ago would of been saying "WHAT?" But now I realize that soccer is pretty entertaining and the world cup is so amazing with all these countries celebrating one sport. I just wish that I was a fan when the US was still in. And to all those people that were celebrating the US's win. I'm sorry.
