Friday Link Dump 3/29/13



This may come as a shock to you, but we are media addicts here at LH.  So when something as historic as two Supreme Court hearings about same sex marriage hits the internet we tend to read an unhealthy amount of articles.  Here’s just a few from our culturally biased, although morally justifiable perspective.  Followed by the fearful reactions of those opposing SSM.

When Activism Meets Internet: The 21 Best Marriage Equality Symbols If you plan to change your online avatar in support of SSM, College Humor recommends these memes as a way to stand out while following the cultural wave.

Society/Culture
Guns don't offer protection – whatever the National Rifle Associatio​n says Antagonistic title -but read it anyway.  It makes some good points about the psychology of the gun owner.
Popular science blog is run by a woman – to the surprise of some on Facebook I don’t actually think this is news.  I’m posting it ironically.
