I spent maybe an hour creating this image to be a background for a powerpoint presentation. I’m kinda proud of how it turned out. It’s also interesting to realize just how comfortable I’m getting with photoshop.

I like Moby, and enjoy reading his blog except for when he’s being political, as he has been for the last, oh, nine months or so–he’s extremely liberal, to the extent of (and, in some ways, beyond) “OH EM GEE APOKYLIPS” if McCain wins. (Which is the great thing about believing in God–He’s in control either way!) I just had to laugh at today’s post, though. I know he’s just being facetious when he suggests giving right-wing fundamentalists Oklahoma to found their own sovereign nation, but, really? Are you going to push the Cherokees out again in order to do so? Because your idea totally isn’t a return to Manifest Destiny and Indian Removal in the first place!

Honestly, I think I’m more surprised he didn’t suggest giving away Alaska instead.
