Welcome to the Oasis! This desert watering hole is famous for its cool drinks, hospitality, friendship and acceptance. Whether you are a disinterested observer trying to figure the primary wars out or a seasoned pie fighter wanting to cool off after a long day's blog battle, we accept all kinds. Please remember to keep it light, cordial and fun in accordance with the vibe we want to keep around here. Not all politics is banned here at the oasis, but the angry politics of the election cycle will bring in the hot desert air that we are trying to avoid. Good news, pooties/woozles/birdeez videos, positive messages, music, cartoons, support and good vibes are what we are about here.
Please feel free to kick back and refresh yourself for another looong campaign season at the Great Orange Satan. And here is a drink, on the house! Please also enjoy our legal weed bar, compliments of Colorado, Washington, Oregon, Alaska, and Washington DC!

I was trying to think of what to write about for this diary and was having a total brainfart. My summertime TV show obsession is So You Think You Can Dance, and you can pretty much trust me when I tell you it's basically me and a bunch of teenage girls who watch the damned thing. (I started watching it years ago with Little Shiz, and we even vote for our favorites every week! It is so sad.)
I can feel some of you judging me right now. Oh right, like you don't have your own guilty pleasure, gimme a break. :)
I started thinking of what TV shows I love that other folks my age actually watch and, ya know, respect and stuff. My favorite show of all time is, of course, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, because why wouldn't it be?! Joss Whedon, the creator of both the movie and the TV spinoff, is fucking brilliant, and it's nice to see him getting big-league kudos these days. If you haven't heard of him, I can only assume that you have lived under a rock for the past 15 years, and I'm sorry for you.
So I thought I would include a few clips from the show. There are SO SO SO many to choose from! 7 seasons is a fucking long time!
What is your all-time favorite TV show? Feel free to include a vid or two in the comments. :)

Awesome humans in Japan are turning abandoned golf courses into solar power plants!
This teacher is going straight to heaven because she cares more about education than money!

Michael Tabrizi owns a restaurant and Baltimore and he's feeding homeless people for free all week long!
Randomness and Love
This video always cracks me up. :)
Thought of the Day
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” -- Marianne Williamson
