Look: I wish I knew more about what’s going on in Uganda, and I don’t want to hate on Kony 2012 just because I’m a cynic. But it took me about the same amount of time to read up on this criticism as it took me to watch the video itself. That’s still under an hour, about the same time it takes to watch an episode of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta.’ I recommend doing the same before you get behind any cause. It’s awesome to hear my Facebook friends say they feel “empowered” by sharing the video — but remember that charity isn’t really about you feeling empowered, is it?

Finnish Dog Wows Critics and Bores Fans With Avant-Garde Piano Music
Composer and performance artist Petu of Finland has completed a new work that has music critics spellbound.
“It speaks to the very soul of the 21st century,” writes Serge Pan, a European music blogger who covers Avant-Garde canine composers. “Connected, yet disconnected. Having everything and wanting everything in the same moment.”
But regular music fans tend to disagree.
“He sucks at singing,” says Joe Palance of Staten Island, NY. “No disrespect.”
