Speaking of scraping the bottom of the barrel…
…here’s some homegrown depravity for you, in case you didn’t get your fill with ISIS’ latest:
Following up on Science of Us’ recent illuminating interview with a woman who was engaged in a sexual relationship with her father, Jezebel on Tuesday published a gut-wrenching and thought-provoking essay from yet another victim of genetic sexual attraction (GSA). This time, it’s not a happy love story: in her remembrances of her experience with GSA, Vancouver-based writer Natasha Rose Chenier describes the psychological whirlwind of falling in romantic love with her biological father, whom she did not meet for the first time until she was 19.
Over a two-year period after they first met, Chenier explains, her father seduced her — but she also experienced a phenomenon that is estimated to affect at least half of relatives who meet as adults (though the figure is disputed).
Here’s your fresh hell for the day
Just when you think they’re scraping the bottom of the barrel of depravity, they drill right through and find something else to shock the world’s conscience:
A top Iraqi diplomat told world leaders that ISIS is harvesting the organs of its victims to fund it murderous operations, the latest charge of barbarity in a list that already includes mass beheadings, burning people alive, crucifying children and throwing people off of buildings.
The shocking new claim was presented by the Iraqi ambassador to the United Nations, who said bodies have turned up in mass graves bearing surgical incisions and missing organs such as kidneys. Ambassador Mohamed Alhakim leveled the charge as he asked the Security Council to investigate whether harvesting and selling the organs of those it executes. The claim followed an unconfirmed report late Tuesday that as many as 45 people captured by the Islamic State in the Anbar Province town of al-Baghdadi had been rounded up and burned alive.
“We have bodies,” Alhakim told his international counterparts. “Come and examine them. It is clear they are missing certain parts.”
Alhakim, who said a dozen doctors have been executed in Mosul for refusing to participate in organ harvesting, briefed the council on the overall situation in Iraq and accused the Islamic State group of “crimes of genocide” in targeting certain ethnic groups. The outgoing U.N. envoy to Iraq, Nikolay Mladenov, told the council that 790 people were killed in January alone by terrorism and armed conflict.
This is what “going full retard” looks like
Is he arguing, among other things, that the 19 hajjis responsible had “legitimate grievances?”
The three scariest words in the English language are:
IT’S ALL TRUE
And it is all true that our president, the commander in chief of our armed forces, is a left-wing radical terrorist-sympathizer.
This is why he his always proposing “political solutions” which include ISIS, the Taliban, or Al Qaeada. He believes they deserve a seat at the table because Obama shares their grievances and rages against the Western World.
He agrees with the terrorists. That’s why he pals around with them.

Which image of Obama mugging for BuzzFeed’s cameras diminishes the presidency the most, ranked
Which image of Obama mugging for BuzzFeed’s cameras diminishes the presidency the most, ranked
Could the drive-by media’s scales finally be falling from their eyes? One thing they noticed: the White House needs some Windex.
(This sequence with a selfie stick made the cut, but even it wasn’t considered the worst of this bad lot.)
Take flight 666 to HEL on Friday the 13th? What could possibly go wrong?
This is probably the only time you’ll see me link the Grauniad…this is kinda funny:
Friday 13th travellers take chance on flight 666 to HEL
Would you board flight 666 to HEL on Friday the 13th? For superstitious travellers, that might be tempting fate. But Finnair passengers on AY666 to Helsinki apparently were not too bothered. Friday’s flight was almost full.
“It has been quite a joke among the pilots,” said pilot Juha-Pekka Keidasto before flying the Airbus A320 from Copenhagen to Helsinki. “I’m not a superstitious man. It’s only a coincidence for me.”
The daily flight AY666 from Copenhagen to Helsinki falls on Friday the 13th twice in 2013.
I guess he really does like fishsticks

Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg Wasn’t ‘100 Percent Sober’ During State of the Union
Given who was giving this particular speech, I can’t say I’d blame her for trying to drown out the pain:
Ruth Buzzi Ginsburg Wasn’t ‘100 Percent Sober’ During State of the Union
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg admits to sharing some wine with her colleagues and not being “100 percent sober” for President Obama’s State of the Union address in January.
During Obama’s speech, which lasted just under an hour, many viewers on social media pointed out that the 81-year-old liberal justice appeared to be snoozing.
“The audience for the most part is awake, because they’re bobbing up and down, and we sit there, stone-faced, sober judges. But we’re not, at least I wasn’t, 100 percent sober,” Ginsburg said during a talk at George Washington University on Thursday night, according to a report by The Blaze.
