The Union: The Business Behind Getting High | Watch Free Documentary Online

This is the best pot documentary I’ve seen yet. It tears into the most commonly heard myths regarding cannabis. This movie is to cannabis/hemp what food inc. was for the food industry.  It puts everything into perspective for the average human. It is easy to understand, its not boring, it has quite an array of different personalities from different sides of the war on drugs that range from Tommy Chong to Marc Emery, politicians, underground marijuana growers, and lots of average people. This film directly confronts many misconceptions surrounding cannabis. For people that need more education on the subject, this film outlines and debunks every major myth that has risen(some of which many people still believe). For the experienced veteran activist it is an amazing piece of work & a potential tool to help spread consciousness on the issue. The numbers are staggering, the propaganda that has been forced upon generations of Americans is staggering, and the degree to which people are still in the dark  is staggering. Politicians should stop trying to govern based on so-called morals, especially when the facts are against them & the people are rightfully questioning the source of those morals.

state of the onion(rotted or not?)

I ended up finally catching the presidents state of the union address. I had forgotten all about it and had to find it online. While I don’t agree with much of what I heard, i do remember thinking somewhere in the middle “man, i’m glad he isn’t george bush”.
The last election has served as a reality check for the nation. It has proven to me that our country can no longer achieve anything under the current two party format, it has made the idealogical flaws at both ends of the political spectrum painfully obvious, and it has also enlightened us on where the power lies ($$$ not people).
Obama like Bush,Clinton,Bush, and Reagen before him is typically just a cheerleader for his party. The president of the current United States does little more than talk in actuality. They basically just play the mouthpiece of their party and tell the nation what direction that particular party wants to take us. Whether we get there or even anywhere close is always another story.
Even though the tone of the speech was extremely optimistic its hard to be very positive when you observe the buffoons we call leaders in action. Its alarming to me that these elitist politicians from the left and right cannot just sit down & shut up for one hour while the president gives a speech. They as always were whispering, laughing, and shaking their heads after just about every single remark like schoolchildren. Do they not know that cameras are on them at all times? Or has it come to the point that they just don’t care?

   I ended up supporting Obama in the election, not because I thought the world would miraculously become nicer, but  mostly because another four years of conservative evangelical politics would have sent permanent shivers up my spine. I’m not going to defend Barack Obama (he’s a lawyer, he’s pretty good at doing that himself). For all i know he might be a complete fake. I think to get to that level in politics you have to be somewhat corrupted, you’d have to step on some toes & lie your ass off to get anywhere in the American political world, but whether you think he’s an evil genious, a muslim, a communist, terrorist, or alien you cannot deny that his message is right on. The american people are sick of partisan politics, they’re sick of what the government has become.. I didn’t vote for him because of who he is as a person. I voted for him because I agreed with the message, because like I said all the president does is cheerlead, you might as well vote for the one thats gonna speak about things you agree with. Most people that oppose him don’t oppose most of what he speaks about, its just that they don’t believe he can do it, or that he’s really working in their best interest. So basically its not that people disagree with the president on every issue, its just that they don’t trust him, which is understandable.

   No matter your stance on the issues. No matter how you felt about bank bailouts, which seemed like histories largest heist, no matter how you feel about the healthcare debate, or anything else. Its hard for even the staunchest critics to deny that the country is more stable now than it was when the president took office. Whether its just bandaids in the form of stimulous dollars or people simply complaining less because they’re getting unemployment and welfare, you cannot deny things are going better than they were a year ago.

   After having said all that I admit that I’m largely skeptical of the democrats fiscal policies. I am one who tends to believe Ron Paul at least in economics. I think the federal reserve is wrong, unfair, and dominating our lives, and both political parties encourage this type of  fiat currency economics.  Still though, the nations debt was already over a trillion when the presidency changed hands, as Obama said is was projected to get much higher if the same policies stayed in place. Contrary to what many people believe, federal spending is a relatively tiny portion of the budget & funding the policies that Obama is pushing would considerably help our deficits in years to come. Point being all this debated spending is really nothing compared to our nations GDP annually & all this spending is aimed at curbing our nations long term problems like energy & healthcare.

   All in all I just wish we could all show some empathy and if we can’t get on the same page we should at least be in the same book. If you disagree with whats happening thats fine, people should openly discuss things they don’t support, but we should not disagree simply because we represent one side or another, we shouldn’t allow the political demonization that occurs to interrupt us from solving our problems. I urge people to try and learn from those who are different from yourself. Try exchanging views and ideas with people of  different race , ideaology, or heritage. I believe that sharing and understanding each others views instead of simply fearing  the unknown is the only way we could ever possibly come together, form understandings, and hopefully sort out our differences.

2012 & psychedelics

I believe humanity is at a major intersection on our way to whatever it is we’re going to become. The decisions we make as a species in the next few years are going to be big players in our fate. We face environmental disasters ranging from climate change to hurricanes and earthquakes. We face problems with our excessive way of life & even with the currency we use to fuel it. There is also the threat of plagues, human weaponry, polar reversals and much more. Many human beings are ready to turn the page and change the way they think, yet even as the problems build up to the point of crisis right before our eyes the majority are still stuck in nuetral. There are many aspects of the 12/21/2012 date that I find interesting, but I must say the entire subject of the mayan 2012 date has invigorated an interest in astrology for me. The astrological significance of the 2012 winter solstice cannot be denied. The media as always is the bearer of ignorance for our culture and the depiction of 2012 that they gave the masses in theatres was unfair to say the least. I must say that they have done a grand job of desensitizing the public to the subject & given them only a small portion of what should be discussed when talking about that date. Most people are not aware of the many positive interpretations from modern scholars and prophets, many are unaware of the syncronicity between the mayans, egyptians, and hopi’s when it comes to that date, and almost nobody I’ve met has heard Terence Mckenna’s side of the story with his “timewave zero” program and the way he modeled time as a wave using the I-ching, which showed human novelty spiraling toward an endpoint that happened to be 12/21/2012. Its hard to deny the acceleration of this spiral being tightened. The huge increase in human technology in the last 200 years is evidence of the ancient mayan prophecies holding truth. They tell of a time when humans forget or lose their connection to nature and the divine. Due to the restriction and outlawing of psychedelic plants we have demonized our direct link to the natural intelligence of nature. It is not merely coincidence that habitual users of psychedelics when educated often come to the same conclusions that life is all connected. These substances are literally a wake up call to the disillusioned. Ever since the discovery of these plant teachers such as psilocybin, mescaline, and even LSD and synthetics they have lead us to unimaginable blossoming in thought. They nearly already caused a revolution in the 1960’s but were banned and demonized by the United States government partly due to their unsuccessful trials of weaponizing them but also undoubtedly because they allow the user to step back and observe life from a different point of view than normal, a more natural point of view outside of the way humans are normally programmed to think these days. They not only offer an alternative view of life but also an alternative way of thinking and living. Psychedelics threatened the normal status quo and offered hope rather than fear at the end of the tunnel, therefore the elites of society felt their wealth threatened and waged all out war against psychedelics. I don’t think people were prepared to properly reintegrate psychedelics into culture at that time. Human consciousness has undergone much change in just the last few decades & as we move closer and closer to 2012 it seems like we change psychologically more in a year than we used to in ten or even a hundred years. We’re living in an age with cellular phones that can access the internet, gps units, the large hadron collider, genetically modified foods, Nintendo wii’s.. Things that we would have never considered possible are indeed coming to light, but at the same time there seems to be a message shining through. The more we’ve used this technology to try and make our lives easier the more we’ve disconnected from our natural ways. Its so simple to me, everyday it seems im reminded that people that don’t use psychedelics or moreover are not even open to the use of them are the people that are confused and perpetuating all of our earthly problems. In order to solve one or any of our major problems we will need to be on the same page, and I know of no better way to do so than psychedelics. Its so easy to criticize this point of view without trying otherwise, but you see once you’ve experienced a psychedelic state you then have taken your perspective farther than someone who has not. How far of a perspective shift depends on how far you let yourself go, not to say that people cannot be enlightened without the use of psychedelics. Its more like these substances are just the best thing around to illuminate the dark tunnel we’ve placed our species in, or to serve as a smack upside the head of humanity. Sometimes all it takes is one trip to drop all of your misconceptions and your ego, to flush D.A.R.E, the D.E.A and western mindedness in general down the toilet in favor of living simply. All of us shamans of this age must continue helping people understand this transition as best we can. We must urge people to trade in their use of alcohol for something that opens your mind for a change. You can make a near direct link from alcohol consumption to the end of tribal living. Instead of modern religious leaders having a direct connection to the divine through the use of psilocybin, ayahuasca, or other psychoactives which is how most modern religions started (including christianity) they rely on information passed on by other generations who have also been restricted. We’re living in a time where all the puzzle pieces seem to be available we just have to work together to make it whole.

an era of ideas

4/16/2008 – 12/15/2009 The following amounts to a journal of what was going through my head during the dates above. Much of it is political but there is also alot of poetry and other thoughts as well. It offers a perspective that I feel is unique and it amazes me how much things have changed since this time period. Much of it still represents how I feel, although I’m not as passionate about the politics anymore. Either way this is a very interesting chronicle from a very interesting time period.

opportunity 4 improving
Current mood: groggy
Category: News and Politics
For once in my lifetime we have an opportunity to change our country for the better. An opportunity for the regular, non-rich Americans to finally have a say. We have witnessed a revolutionary campaign in this political year. Its been a campaign that has sparked the interest & thought of so many average American’s. Barack Obama has gotten so many people from different backgrounds & perspectives to join together in a way that has not been seen in almost a half century. He has done this by speaking about things that the American people truly care about in ways that no politician has in my lifetime. We have witnessed this extremely powerful & youthful movement struggle over the past weeks with the politics of old. The Clinton’s look like political dinosaurs these days due to the way they have been attacking Obama. Clinging to negativety, and creating statements that are directed to the large portions of the population that don’t pay enough attention. The Clinton campaign has again & again tried to break the spirit of the Obama supporters, just to fail again & again. The fact is people are so fed up with this type of politics. This is what people have seen most of their lives. Hillary has recently attacked Barack over and over about the fact that he said working class citizens in the small town America are “bitter”, and frusterated about the government, and their own working conditions these days. It has been called an elitist comment. Now the problem I have with all these attacks is that its a true statement. The truth is not always the fantasy that most politicians usually make it out to be. How is it that people are upset that he is telling us the truth? I know alot of people that are bitter (including myself) about the current state of our nation. Not that Hillary Clinton would not be a huge change, because she would. She is one of the closest things we’ve seen to a socialist running for office in recent times, but she’s part of a dynasty, and for a true change I think our country needs to look beyond just Bush’s & Clinton’s. In the last eight years We have witnessed a downturn in our economy, crime rates in big cities have skyrocketed under Bush & Clinton, We are viewed now as a bully instead of the great liberator that we used to be, We have witnessed our government steal elections (which im still worried about this year), we have seen our government torture, hold people in prisons illegally, go to war with not a shred of evidence supporting it, the gap between the rich & poor has gotten much larger due to the Bush tax cuts for the wealthy, & THE PRICE OF OIL. Finally before George W. Bush took office there were not half as many commercials on television advertising prescription drugs. He has truly sold out to the oil, and drug companies, and big business all over our nation. You used to go to the doctor if you were sick, and your doctor would decide what is best for you. Now you see a drug on T.V. and you go ask your doctor about it. How is it that people don’t understand our own government is pushing pills on us? The list goes on and on. The patriot act, spying on anyone they please, appointing evil republican judges to the supreme court. All we need is a new leader with new cabinet members, and a democratic led congress. Don’t take my word for it. All you have to do is pay attention just a little bit to be upset about the state of our nation. VOTE OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!

planet fever
Current mood: complacent
It aggravates me that the United States is ranked relatively low among countries trying to become green or carbon friendly. We need to begin making our vehicles more fuel efficient immedietly, or at least much faster than we are. We consume 10% of the worlds oil daily. China, India, and many other nations are becoming more like the western world everyday. These people are beginning to buy vehicles on much larger scales than ever before. They see us over here parading around in our trucks, and suv’s, and they want to live like that as well, and who could blame them. point being we truly need to slowly shift off of oil altogether, because if we don’t do it soon our attempts to combat global warming will be useless, because huge portions of the world population are beginning to drive.
It amazes me that 15 years ago it was still split as to whether or not global warming was even happening. Now you hear nearly everyone talk about climate change. George Bush is just now acknowledging it. Proving that he truly is at least five or ten years behind the rest of the world mentally. He is trying to improve the fuel effeciency of automobiles by some measley number by the year 2025. That is not half as fast as it needs to happen. The earth is in rough shape, and humans are truly looking like a virus or plague on a once healthy planet. If not for the kids or the animals. Since alot of Americans are selfish they should do it for themselves. Adults need to remember we are still gonna be here for a while. I mean its not like we don’t live on this planet. Improving the condition of where we live seems like a damn fine idea to me. So i just urge more people to bring up the topic, and give your idea’s. Somehow we must beat our polluting ways.

The smallest things in our environment are great examples of the problems. honeybee’s freaking out, amphibians in the rainforest going extinct, the loss of so many animals habitats due to developing cities and suburbs. We just need to remember life is very well modeled as a web or chain. No matter how great or smart we’ve become we cannot forget the fact that we happen to be part of that web of life. Losing little bits and pieces of it randomly all over the planet could prove to have a horrible effect on such a delicate balance.

Current mood: high
4:20 to me is much more than just a day to enjoy ourselves. Its a statistic that shows we are ready to move beyond the ignorance of the past & stop putting non-violent people in jail. April 20 is a day where there is an inside joke going on worldwide. The day where even the casual user comes out to puff. There is no doubt that Mary is here to stay. Its been over a half century since it became popular in the U.S., and continuously kills less people a year than anything else, is not addictive, helps many peoples personalities,& has many medicinal qualities. how much more science do we need. Do the research, it could save the world.

patriotic (naw)
Current mood: awake
Category: News and Politics
Im so fed up with the laws & traditions of this country, the lack of health care, and the arrogance thats shown by the rich portion of our populous. Im so sick of seeing so many people suffer, thinking that they are doing the right things to make their lives better, only to run into more and more obstacles. Why is it that we cannot look at each other as equals regardless of money, race, religion, or education? Rarely do you see people that are kind to their neighbors anymore, especially in areas as populated as Florida. How can we make people see that no matter how many differences we have, or how big the differences are, we have more in common because we are all humans? We all want the same things, we all need to eat, we all want shelter, and we all want the best for our friends and family. Sadly in this time & culture the elite make our decisions. 10% of the people in America own 90% of the money. Therefore the other 90% are scraping the bottom of society acting as the pillars for the rich to stay on top. We need to begin to look at one another as brothers and sisters, and this is something that im dead serious about. There is trillions of dollars on this planet, and only about 10 billion people(if that, id have to check that figure). Point being there is more than enough resources to go around if humanity could just transcend selfishness. Why are so many people obsessed with taking more than they need in life. So many people live in the lap of luxury. Keeping their riches in the bank, then they die and give the money to their next of kin(if their lucky) just so they can do the same thing with it. I don’t think the government should have too much control in any aspect of peoples lives, but I almost think they should pass something forcing people that have certain amounts of money to share. Charity is not enough, when people give their money to charities they never know how its spent. If i was a multi millionaire I would buy all my close freinds a car & a house, or a boat (whatever they wanted). I could easily get by with 30 grand a year, but you have people that make over $100,000 a year, and nobody ever see’s any of it.
Now I have absolutely no problem with people working hard to earn their money. Of coarse they are going to be a little defensive about what they do with it, but most of those people are from past generations (that have fucked the current generations in the ass). These old rich types that run America & assume the way they live their lives is the correct way just don’t realize that things are not the way they used to be. They lived in a time when you could conquer the world with just a high school diploma. You could save some money, start a business, and create a small monopoly. Well guess what these days everything is already monopolized. The politicians & business owners expect kids to work twice as hard as they did, and not end up with half as much in the end. In this state your pretty much required to have a college degree to prosper, your required to pass certain tests before you can even complete high school. These are things that today’s seniors didn’t have to deal with when they were young. How can today’s politicians say that kids need to have a C average to pass high school when a D- was adequate in their day? I guess they are trying to improve the world or some stupid shit, but increasing the dropout rate, and making kids feel helpless is doing the opposite of that.
Sadly most of these old mofugga’s don’t care. They are too preoccupied with protecting their silly little values like religion, stopping cutting edge scientific research, and stopping abortions. On that note I’d like to speak some rationality about something that should be common sense. People need to respect the choices and descisions of others. If you don’t believe in abortions thats fine, but don’t open your mouth about it. I can understand being upset about women that are reckless with it, but to be totally against it to me means that your an absolute elitist that wants to be god. How could you be against an abortion for a woman that has been raped, how could you be against it for a girl that made one mistake in her teen years? Then the question must shift to “what if it was your daughter”?. I believe life begins with conscioussness. Nobody remembers being born, or being in the womb. This may seem cold to those who are afraid of reality, but to me an abortion is no different than cutting down a tree. I mean are we really that sacred? There is already too many of us, and we are doing immense harm to the earth, and all of its inhabitants, many of which are harmless creatures that don’t have the capability of ill intent like humans. At least a tree helps the Earth, and keeps its mouth shut, so maybe cutting down a tree is worse.
I didn’t intend to get so deep into this particular writing, but sometimes my mind just lets go of things that i feel need to be written. Basically what i was meaning to get at was just the elite/selfish issue. I know many good people, some of my best friends are the least selfish people on the planet. I know the human brain has the capability of understanding and respecting one another. Unfortunately the world is being controlled by a generation that has locked their brains like a box of ideas never to be opened. So many of the kids/adults i know from my generation are ready to change the world, and share my views. Even those who don’t share my ideals are still able to see how far off track humanity has gotten. We have exceeded our natural food supply, were in debt, were causing suffering around much of the world. All i have to say to most of our representatives in congress is “SPEAK FOR YOURSELF”, and When is it gonna be our turn? VOTE OBAMA

who u is???
Current mood: blessed
Category: Life
something i feel is important for everyone to do is challenge their beliefs. It doesn’t have to be often, but i think once in a great while its completely logical to stop & take a look at things, & think about whether or not you have the correct stance on certain issues. So many people float through life always believing what they’re told by teachers, the media, parents, ect. I truly hate it when people express opinions not based on facts they know, but rather on what they’ve been told by the news, or someone they are led to believe is superior to them. The way some people get brought up is an almost certain path to being narrow minded. People are taught from the get go that you are supposed to go to school & try your absolute hardest. Then your supposed to get a job, just to benefit the government which rules our lives. Some people never look outside the borders of the box they get raised in. A little bit of perspective is all most people need. The ability to see and understand things from many different points of view is something much of the population lacks. Many amazing experiences in my life have helped to shape the way i see the world around me, and allowed me to gain a million times the amount of perspective i was born with. Not everyone is lucky enough to experience such things. Alot of people in this country have such a chip on their shoulder that they cannot even phathom not being the best. They have a hard time understanding that just because we have cars, computers, and all the other things that make us Americans doesn’t at all mean we are any better than people in tribes, or of different religions, and cultures. If people do not challenge the things they are tought, and refuse to open their minds to others opinions, they often end up with deep seeded contradictions at the bedrock of their personalities. I often think of when I was in school, a great example of people believing only what they’re parents tell them. The kids, they all love to go around and talk about politics, especially during an election time, but if you start to break down specific issues with them they would end up not knowing what they are talking about 99% of the time, and eventually just sound like they are repeating the exact words they hear at home. The sad part is alot of the time its the same way with the parents, and their parents and so on. We are a nation that knows nothing, but wants to control everything. How can we even wonder why so many other nations view us as the primary evil on the planet? I know we are wrong as a nation, because i was once this way. As a young person I was nearly fully conformed, and surely on the wrong side of certain arguments. Since then my mind has been opened, expanded, manifested, whatever you wanna call it, and im sure u know what i mean. hardy har har lollolol. What really gets on my nerves is when I see psychiatrists, and psychotherapists controlling peoples minds. People who are under the guidance of some of these individuals often begin to think they have figured something out, or understand the world, but many times that psychiatrist/therapist just might be pretending, attempting to get on your good side so they can have further control of your head, & prescribe you pills you most likely don’t need. Certainly this is not true with the whole field, and I respect anyone who goes into this area of medicine in hopes to benefit it, or change it for the better. To know & understand how the masses think at the same time as being able to see they are wrong feels like a curse, but things are changing all the time, and the world seems to be getting more consciouss, or at least I hope. Jus remember one thing the word psychedelic is latin for mind manifesting, or consciouss manifesting, manifest means to make clear or evident, so to make clear or evident to the mind. consciousness expansion.

Current mood: argumentative
Category: Religion and Philosophy
I hate it when people ask God for this, and ask God for that. Truth is, if we could get religious extremists out of the picture we could solve alot of this worlds problems rather quickly. We need to begin problem solving, because God knows he aint gonna do it. Hehehe or maybe he doesn’t know. One thing I know is there is alot wrong with our nation & world, & having a little faith is not going to solve anything, except maybe some issues deep within people’s heads. Why is it that Americans refuse to elect anyone into office that doesn’t have some radical religious connections? Americans think that shows character? I think it takes more character to step up to the plate against these RELIGULOUS CRAZIES and speak the facts. You know the stuff we actually know and have evidence of. I’m not against religion, in fact I believe it has the potential to really help some people, but as Ive stated in the past “Religion has changed over time”. I don’t even mean the text, I mean the way its percieved. It is now used by those in power as a tool of obedience. A way to scare the simple minded into staying in line. I think i’m on the correct side of this argument because I don’t pretend to know the truth. Most religious extremists (of any religion) act as if they do. I do know that I refuse to be led blindly.

Needless 2 say I post alot of controversial thoughts & ideas. I know alot of what I say is highly offensive to some. Highly agreeable to others. Anyway people should never hold a grudge on me for what i type, because no matter how opinionated I can be, im always open to others perspectives. I love 2 debate & argue so feel free to express yoSizelf. I never pass judgements based on peoples beliefs or thoughts, and rarely am rude in person, except 2 what I consider extreme ignorance. You can take what you want outta what I say and think, you can hate me if you like, but if theres one thing I’d like people to remember about me its that- I LOVE ALL YA’LL. Peace B wit cha

GOP denial
Current mood: argumentative
Category: News and Politics
Ive been getting really upset lately about how most republicans view the countries recession. Ive heard people say “oh this kinda thing happens, It’ll go back up”. While that may be true sometimes people are failing to realize the seriousness of the situation. Most of the people that make comments like that come from privelaged upper class backgrounds, and sadly the people that have no say (simply because they don’t pay enough attention) are the ones that are struggling. Just because someone has a good life, and everytime they’ve struggled they made it, doesn’t mean the economy works the same way. I often speak & write about today’s economy, and im going to try & stay away from that here. What Im actually upset about at this particular moment is how certain people’s position is just to “trust the government”, thinking that our economy can rebound while we wage an astronomically expensive war & continuously lose jobs to other countries. Republicans like to talk about how much money we could save if we cut spending (that shits rediculous). Sure it seems like common sense & thats what they are going for. They aim comments like that at the simple minded portion of America (which is amazingly large). Truthfully any economist could tell you that spending cuts could help in some small ways, but its a laugh that it will bring us out of debt & recession. Its never worked in the past & theres no way it will help now, especially considering the extreme state we are currently in. Republican presidential candidate John Mccain is proposing to fix the economy by cutting spending in areas he has deemed “irresponsible”. These cuts are very large, in fact larger than any past administration in some spots. We the people must see this & understand that it will only further this continuously growing gap between rich & poor, it will only make us weaker economically, it will set us on the wrong path in the global economy, and most of all its like kicking someone while their down, it will hurt the middle & lower class Americans even more. John Mccain & most republicans in congress believe helping the rich maintain their wealth is the way to keep the economy stable. Their idea’ s may have worked in the past, and in fact when the country is not in debt & struggling some things they say still make sense, but they have had eight years now to prove their point, eight years down the toilet. The only point they have made is that their political philosophy is out of date, & it no longer works in our current society. Our population has grown alot since the 1980’s. The trickle down economic style is just too selfish for today’s United States. There is simply not enough of a rich business owner to common citizen ratio anymore, therefore you cannot expect the nations wealth to trickle down. The main philosophical divide is whether you believe this problem starts at the top or bottom of society. Ive never seen it be so clear that the top is the problem . Greed, selfishness, ignorance, hate, and flat out blindness are the core root of our national dilemma. If we ever want things on this planet to be fair & pleasant the change must start in the mind.

corporational institutions causin damage 2 the union
Current mood: cynical
Category: News and Politics
Today people in this country are overwhelmingly dependant on large corporations like grocery stores, wal-marts, reseraunts & fastfood. We have exceeded our natural food supply by quite a large margin. We make ourselves vulnerable to disasters because we are not self sufficient. More people should have their own food growing on their properties, or at least some sort of natural nutrients based on what they’re climate permits. At this time in history things seem to be making a swift 180 degree turn from what most of us grew up thinking. We are actually getting to the point where we need to rely less and less on these conveniences in order to not let things get any farther out of hand. The money hungry in this country see nothing wrong with whats happening, and greed motivates them to protect their pocketbooks.
The soft drink industry also has a stranglehold on businesses. People tend to drink alot of soda, mostly because everyone serves it (& because its deliciously sugary & oily). The coca-cola & pepsi corporations have monopolized fast food & other mainstream resteraunt chains world wide.
Anyway fast food is one of our nations worst plagues. It lowers peoples life expectancy quite a bit if you make a habit of eating it often. Its the human equivalent to giving your dog table scraps, they just don’t seem to last as long if you always do it. Unhealthy food is causing lots of our countries health problems from heart disease, obesity, and diabetes to possibly even autism or cancer. Healthy eating is something that schools and educational programs should focus on more. I know personally that I was not made aware of just how unhealthy the average American diet was until I reached high school. Kids should be adapting their tastes for healthy foods like fruits & veggies at a young age, and should be told of all the long term negative side effects of unhealthy eating just as they do with drugs, violence, or any other public health issue.

We have surely come a long way from the horse & buggie era. Since many of the planets current problems are the fault of, or at least enhanced by humans, I thought a good question to ask would be “What would happen if we just left it all behind”? What if America was the first, instead of the last to lead in this fight? I mean what if our government started putting major restrictions ..ular phone usage? Cell phones are one of today’s biggest conveniences, but being one of our modern accomplishments makes them something we really no very little about, or at least the long term usage of them. Hell I remember when there wasn’t cellphones available for everyone, I remember when they didn’t exist at all except for in star trek & things of science fiction nature. Some people a bit older than me are saying ” I remember when we didn’t have them at all”. Today they are one of man’s main neccessaties. We have clung onto cellphones faster than the discovery of ibuprofen. Sure they help us constantly & get us out of bad situations, but how much excess radiation does it take to begin to effect our environment? Its just an idea so don’t label me insane yet, but why not put a limit ..ular phone usage for certain individuals. I believe you should either have a VERY GOOD reason or be in danger to be yappin on a celly.
Fast food is another problem, and the solution to that has to begin with early education about whats good & whats garbage. McDonalds, Wendy’s, Burger King, Arby’s, Checkers, Taco Bell, KFC, & many others are the staple of many American diets. Therefore its not just a coincidence that as a nation we are the heaviest & unhealthiest. Most people simply don’t have the self control to eat healthy and thats understandable, believe me I’ve been there, but being the top species on this earth, having as much intelligence as we have, and having such a great understanding about how we should eat healthy makes room for no exuses for treating yourself like swine. Some of this problem has to do with our fast paced lifestyle which is my next subject.
If Americans didn’t spend as much time on the roads we would obviously not depend so much on all this shit food we eat. Driving is something that this generation must absolutely sacrifice a little bit. Even non-civilized nations are beginning to drive, so its time for us to set the example backwards & put climate change to a halt. People commute long & short distances everyday. Almost everyone we know either owns a car or rides in one on a daily basis. Buses, semi trucks, trains, boats, and airplanes. So once again i pose a question that most people can’t phathom. Would it really be so bad without cars? Community transportation is one option, but surely not something everyone would go with. Cars really just need to be electric, hydrogen, or ethanol powered, or at least extremely fuel effiecient. I don’t think anyone wants to completely cripple the planet we live on, so everyone should care a little and give their input. With billions of folks ideas we just might figure something out, because thats the real problem, too many human beings just don’t get involved very much or at all.
I could go on & on about the faults of our generation, but i’d rather offer this idea. Maybe us humans have conquered our world to the fullest extent. Maybe there should be a limit to how much we explore & how far we take our ideas. The more we “pimp out” nature the more unpredictable she gets. I think what would truly transcend us from our past generations ignorance, & remove our names from the future struggle to me is simple. You see because as a species just because we know something is possible doesn’t mean we should tamper or experiment with it. The day humans realize all of our potential & then ignore it will be the day we find our peace, because sometimes its better to know than to experience. Final point, Just because there are endless possibilities doesn’t mean we want to know everything thats possible.

the evolution of the talking fungus
Current mood: devious
psychedelic mushrooms may have had a large part in the evolution of language. This is an idea that cannot be ruled out by any means. Anyone that pictures cavemen sitting around a fire might imagine a brutal, barbaric scene. In the case that these cavemen ingested psilocybin mushrooms & began to realize the nature of the mushroom. They may have begun to understand how similar they all were to each other, It could be the reason language even came about. A bunch of cave men sittin around tripping on mushrooms making voices they’ve never made before, and with repeteded experiments they may have been able to form common words, hence the beginning of language, caused by a psychedelic drug. THEIR IN OUR BRAINS.

THE CORRECT VIEW
Current mood: smart
Category: News and Politics
Its amazing how much I disagree with the republicans in congress these days. Their plan on attacking Sen. Obama is to label him a super duper liberal who is not in the mainstream of the senate. Come on now, they say that like its a bad thing, just because he’s not part of the evil empire of washington D.C.

First off the Liberals used to be looked at as a well respected group, but then the Nixon/Reagen/Bush’s completely changed the average Americans views on what a liberal really is. Tell me now who wants another president from mainstream congress? To me being non-mainstream is the exact quality I want in my next president.

Now that it finally looks like he’s gonna wrap up the nomination, he can start focusing more on John Mccain. I cannot wait to see the debates between Mccain & Obama, because Barack is gonna make that old man look stupid, out of touch, & just plain wrong. Even with all the bickering inside the democratic party, I still don’t think the republicans have a chance at the general election. The economy is horrid, the war is evil, unemployment is at very high levels, & important funding that could be used inside our country is being spent on military actions that should not have taken place to begin with. My big issue against Mccain & republicans is their attempt to make the Bush tax cuts permanent. Basically that means anybody who makes millions of dollars a year only has to pay taxes on $90,000 or their fortune, while anyone that makes under 90,000 pays taxes on every penny of it. Sounds to me we need a ROBIN HOOD in the white house to reverse this madness.

Everyone is a hater. Thats the absolute truth. Everyone in this society talks shit & has opinions about other people & the way they do things. Its kinda silly to take offense to criticism these days because you’ll find it anywhere you look. I feel the best way to respond to the national hater population is just to show them nothing but love on a regular basis & let karma do its thing. I know I’ve got alot of hate. If I hate you then your gonna know it. Luckily, most people I hate are people I don’t even know. Trick ass punks that I’ll never meet like rich business owners, politicians, celebrities & anyone else that has the ability to better this world but ignores it.

I don’t know if eliminating hate from the human brain is anywhere near possible, but maybe hate doesn’t have to be such a bad thing. People just need to start hating the right things instead of the wrong. They need to start hating the people controlling the problems & not hate each other. I’ve said before that whatever is going to happen on this planet is going to be directly related to humans. So if we are going to begin to improve the way we live & the way we treat each other it needs to start with kids & good early education. The solution to so many problems may be right within our mind. We just need to spark the idea of love & peace being a realistic goal to our younger generations. School needs to be more reality oriented, the media should be more blunt & honest, and people should take more personal roles in creating a better world.

This is what it sounds like when I’ve had to much of my medicine (cough cough cough)

Why is it that the majority of people these days cannot escape the grips of fear & hate? I think this is a good question because I see it everyday, some people believe everything they hear from any anonymous source. The media in all of its many forms help fuel negative stereotypes toward so many different people, and shape the opinions & ideas of many. The media tries to show whats happening from every possible view & perspective, but the way the information is presented has alot to do with how an individual might interpret it. So many factors go into news programming, things such as the amount of coverage something gets, or even the reporter giving the news can have a tremendous impact on how one shapes their thoughts.

crazy daze
Current mood: pure
Category: Blogging
Technology is amazing… Its crazy how much data can be fit into devices the size of fingernail, Its crazy that GPS is a normality among people these days. The internet truly changed our species as a whole. It seems like evolution just keeps getting faster & faster. We’ve changed more in the last twenty years than anyone would have ever imagined then. Seems like everyday new electronic gadgets & other products are invented. There were so many more advancements since I was born than in the fifty years previous to that. It took hundreds of millions of years for humanity to start & now we evolve more in a day than we used to in decades or even centuries. Life most likely began with simple single celled organisms. Those organisms continued to divide & reproduce until we eventually got the web of life we have today, the web of life that humans are destroying piece by piece. We have examples of evolution right in front of us in life. For example the human small toe is dissappearing slowly, its getting smaller as generations go by & may not exist at some point. This is due to the fact that nearly all humans wear shoes & no longer travel long distances with bare feet. Its happening the most prominently in areas where shoes have been common for ages. The human appendix is a great example of evolution. A small organ that has absolutely no use today, but is full of stuff capable of nuetralizing bacteria & was used to help digest raw meats. I hate it when people try to debate evolution. How can you tell me that television, computers, & cell phones haven’t changed the way our brains work? There are still a few members of congress that openly state that they don’t believe in evolution(which is rediculous). Look this planet, galaxy, universe, dimension, or realm may be the work of something intelligent. I’ve never doubted that as being a possibility. There is no way to know, but just because somebody believes in a god doesn’t mean they can’t or shouldn’t believe in evolution. Most people that know me know how I feel about religion, but I don’t think its a bad thing & I generally don’t judge people based on it. Its when you start putting your faith above reality & visible facts that your delusional. Remember “put your guns up its 2013, Karma’s a bitch all hail the machine”.

Finally the odds are stacking up against Hillary Clinton… Today Barack is in Kissimmee & Tampa declaring his victory in the majority of delegates. All I can say is thats its about time… If the situation was opposite of what it actually is & Hillary was on top in the count she would be arguing the exact same thing Obama is, & he would have already dropped out because earlier in the year Hillary was pretty much the presumptive nominee for the democrats… So finally we can prep for Obama vs. Mccain. One good thing is that no matter what we are not gonna be led by a Bush or Clinton. America is not a land for kings & queens!!!

So many people are fools & when people listen to those fools, they too end up on the wrong side. I know who I trust & I ignore all h8ters. So many people in this world are always waiting to break someones spirits or trick them. Anyone who I declare a trustworthy friend is someone who has been tried & tested a hundred times over. I’d be willing to smash skulls for most of my friends & know they’d do the same for me. Its sad when friends buy into falsities, especially when they’re about you. The way I see it is (I know who I trust, & I generally block out everyone else. You run into problems when you start listening to people that you normally wouldn’t trust.) People shouldn’t let themselves become close to others if they can’t come to the conclusion that they are trustworthy!!!

LUCID DREAMS
Current mood: insubordinate
Category: Dreams and the Supernatural
Lucid dreaming is an amazing thing. Its pretty nuts that our brains can take collections of memories from our entire lives & allow us to relive them, or at least revisit them in certain ways while our normal consciouss is in a resting state. I had a dream the other night that had at least 20 – 30 people from my past & present. In this dream I got my life threatened in many different ways. I was chased by police thru edgewater & other places that I have not been to in years. When I woke up I could have sworn that it actually happened. It was so real I could almost convince myself that I had sleepwalked somewhere & done some stuff, but I hoped that was not the case due to the nature of the dream… lol… I’ve been in a dream cycle lately. Seems like my brain has been having trouble shutting off & jus continues on thru the night. There is a legal supplement that is relatively new that is supposed to enhance lucid dreaming. I think that could be a little scary because as of right now I don’t know that I would want my dreams to be any more lucid than they have been. Maybe I should start taking it though so I can remember my dreams… LOL I’d prolly have a full fiction novel by the end of the first month. ON THE REAL YO, HOW I FEEL YO, UNDERSTAND THAT IT IS THE DEAL YO!!!

Left vs. right
Current mood: weird
Category: News and Politics
To me the when you look at the differences between the democrats & republicans its very simple, & its not just differences in ideals & philosophy. It comes down to politics of hope vs. politics of fear. Republicans play off peoples doubts, while democrats try & inspire people to realize what could be possible. Its a true case of optimism vs. pessimism. Or as I’d like to call it good vs. Evil.. Barack Obama’s speech tonight declaring himself the presumptive democratic nominee for president was very powerful. While John McCain gave a speech that was criticized as being “horrible” by political analysts. He took every opportunity to get a shot at Obama that he could. He tries to make people see him as experienced and tested, & warns about Obama possibly being naive. This is what really gets to me about the republican party. They take these great democratic candidates Kerry, Gore, among many others & paint a fake portrayal that electing them would be a risk due to the drastic shift in views. The fact is that a drastic shift is what is needed. Bush stole his first presidency so I’m not even going to acknowledge that, but with Kerry he made the American people think that changing course so drastically would be a bad idea & somehow they bought into it. I think the chances are about 99.9% that Kerry or Gore would have been better than eight years of Bush. So the question is now whether or not the republicans can pull off the same fear based political victory they’ve achieved in these past elections, but I truly believe we are at a time that Americans are fed up with putting they’re trust in these status-quo politicians. When we have seen nothing but backtracking & no progress, along with the war & the economy, & everything seeming to be headed negatively, I think Americans are finally ready to take a chance, because there is no way things could be worse. A drastic ideal shift in Washington is at least an attempt to fix our struggling machine. I know speaking from my generations point of view, or at least the majority of us ( the ones with brains that work). It just makes more sense to me to elect a president that is a middle-age African American, who has lived in a foreign country, is a product of the middle class, & makes people feel good about America then electing a 71 year old white man who’s wife is worth over $100,000,000, has no idea what a struggling family or individual goes through, & tries to scare people into voting for him. At 71 years old he is more out of touch with my generation than almost anyone else the republicans could have nominated ( although they all pretty much suck). I just want a president that stands up for the masses, for everyones rights. Not just the wealthy & elderly. I think everyone is this country should have to donate half thier money into a national fund. The rich, the poor, all of us, & then split that money evenly among every citizen. Thats how you combat poverty!!!! SO FUCK the GOP & FUCK Mccain & all ya’ll sheeps out there too!!!

raw uncut reality
Current mood: hyper
My insight seems to come in bursts & waves that come and go. Sometimes I’ll be blank on useful thoughts for weeks, and other times I am unable to stop the continuous flow of what seems to be raw uncut reality… I see things the way they should be, but probably couldn’t be. Strong emotions seem to provoke these feelings. I know anger is a useful tool. Usually if something really pisses me off, or just strongly affects me deep down I am unable to stop my mind from racing. Over the past few years I have developed ways of organizing these thoughts & given myself the ability to comprehend them. I often find myself reflecting for hours after something shitty or traumatic happens. Then I take all the neccessary steps to avoid repeating those feelings. I think most people, if not everyone learn from anger though, so thats not all that special, but its just that. Its the consciouss issue. Being consciouss of how you learn & how you think, in addition to knowing how the world works. Most people simply don’t take the time to stop & ponder these quick impulses & thoughts & actions. I know for a fact that most people don’t sit down after something angers them & think “how can I learn from this?” Some may do it instinctiveley, but probably are not aware of the complex brain actions taking place. Your life experiences all play a part in who you are, & who you’ll become…

Why is it so hard to eat healthy in this country? The reason so many Americans have a diet that consists of garbage is because thats whats most readily offered to them on a regular basis… Everything people order seems to have extra this & that, extra cheese, bacon, extra sugar… You have to go out of your way if you want to eat something that is healthy… I think all the major governments around the globe should make it mandantory for all landowners to grow certain crops on their property.. This would eliminate having to ship food long distances & would also have many health benefits, plus knowing how to produce your own food seems like a good thing for humans to learn.. Lets be Smart people, Get a fresh start people…

Here in Florida we seem to either be on fire or drenched. In the summer we are either begging for rain because we don’t want the whole state to burn, or wishing we could get one day of outdoor enjoyment… This year has had a much more typical start to the rainy season than the last two or three years. Its truly amazing how much & how fast weather on this planet can change… To be honest alot of these thunderstorms we get on a daily basis are more terrifying to me than hurricanes… barring that it be a cat. 4 or 5. At least in a hurricane all you get is rain & wind… These damn everyday storms regularly knock the power out, & force people to run for cover & pull off to the side of the roads if they’re driving. I don’t remember the power going out half as much when I didn’t live in this state. All in all I guess its much better than fire though….. great compromise we have to deal with huh?

Extending life
Current mood: strong
Category: Food and Restaurants
I recently tried Tempeh for the first time. It is soy/rice product that tastes amazing when fried. I thought it tasted like healthy bacon. Its a complete protein so I could easily see eating alot more tempeh & alot less meats. In fact I’ve been eating alot less meat on a regular basis & it is beginning to appeal to me less and less. With all the soy/rice/tofu/vegetable/bean&rice dishes i’ve eaten lately i’ve really been gaining an appreciation for this type of food. I can’t say its not a good thing. I really enjoy the health benefits. I like the idea of healthy food having cancer-fighting properties & extending life expectancy as much as 10 years. This country really needs to begin to think about what it is we’ve been putting inside ourselves all this time. I would compare it with quitting cigarettes or something like that, because its obviously come to light that eliminating meat from the diet has countless health benefits. The unhealthy things that most Americans eat are most likely the root cause of many deaths & diseases & obesity, ect… Anyway im just trying to do the best thing for everything involved.. me, the animals,the people i love & the planet itself.

Category: News and Politics
I love election years because everybody is always arguing. Everyone tries so hard to show who they are & what they stand for. Its staggering to me how many people are uncaring & unaware about the world. Elections allow the true colors to shine for so many of us. So often it shows how narrow minded & uncaring so many people are. It brings out the ignorance in folks. You hear people that wouldn’t normally speak their opinions open up & you realize “wow they’re dumb” . hardy har har! I can’t speak for everyone, but generally you can say that as a whole people are unaware, narrow minded, and non-consciouss of their actions. Although that might just be my analysis based on where I live & what I can see. Anyway my people, we cannot make the same grim mistake this time around. it would be overly devastating to entrust another elitist republican for the next four years. Why is it that the younger people are overwhelmingly for Obama? Because its in our best interest to not have a 71 year old president, Because its the younger generations that are going to be handling the brunt of this massive debt, Because more young people give a damn about the environment, Because young people have transcended the racial divide. I could never vote for Mccain because he could never even pretend to understand who I am or how I live. (among many other reasons). He could never relate to myself, or any of my peers for that matter. With all this Rove/Cheney/Bush corruption & scandal how can anyone want to give the republicans another turn. At least Barack speaks truth to the people. He tells people he’s going to tax the rich more across the board, he understands that not everyone can be happy in the process thats necessary to fix America. Mccain sugarcoats his plans to milk the middle-class dry by talking about tax cuts. These tax cuts are for wealthy business owners. To me it couldn’t get more obvious…. Its Robin hood(Obama) vs. Robbin the hood(Mccain).

All my modern day pirates out there.. Ya’ll know who you are.. I think its silly & impossible to not download media off the web. With so much music/video/books at the tips of your fingers why would people refrain. Let all the musicians & actors bitch it up. I’m sorry that the masses are finally having a say in how much money you make!!! The internet has certainly taken much of the power from the record companies & given it back to the people. Although copyright laws say its not legal, the entire world cannot be punished.. I consider myself a responsible consumer anyway so I don’t feel bad. If I respect an artist & want to support their material then I’ll go out & buy their shit, & that goes the same for movies, but I’m not sorry that I download the majority of my music. I’m not sorry that multi millionaire artists have to deal with one less zero in thier banks. THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE ARE FREE PEOPLE.. If myspace wasn’t free people would surely do without it. No matter how cool something is, its not quite as cool if you have to pay for it. & that Be the Real yo!!!

Special Interests!!!
Current mood: thoughtful
Category: News and Politics
If evil (the GOP) wins the election this year, I think it will have to do with Obama not accepting money from special interests & Mccain embracing them. Sadly the American people don’t seem to fully understand how large of a statement it is to not accept this money. Barack Obama’s campaign has consistently raised way more money than the republicans as far as average citizens go, therefore Mccain would have pretty much been throwing in the towel had he not accepted this lobbyist $$$$. Now Obama’s lead in the polls is slipping & Mccain has been raking in more cash & spending more cash. Its sad that money has so much to do with our politics. Its sad that a few t.v. commercials are what most Americans base their votes on. How is it that people cannot see that these special interests funding Mccains campaign are the superpowers that have had the most say during the Bush years. Oil/drug companies are still going to be in charge if Mccain wins. Its absolutely rediculous when you hear people say “the winner of this election makes no difference”. The candidates couldn’t be farther apart on issues. They will select very different politicians in their cabinets & yes oil & healthcare are two things that will be very different based on who wins. All the people in power that want Washington to stay as is are doing everything in their power to get Mccain elected. I mean if you look at the numbers, way less people are prosperous under Bush than before him. If the masses weren’t so blind & payed attention they would realize that four or eight more years of these policies would be devastating. It really is CHANGE vs. Status quo. Continuation vs. new perspective. Peace vs. war. People need to smarten up & cast their vote for the candidate that runs his campaign on the peoples money & not the candidate who’s main donors just want to keep control of the people. Lets stop running our government like a business & start being fair to ALL who live here. Lastly Mccain will not make us safer, his age makes him way out of touch with most generations, & if you wanna talk about elitist, take a look at how rich John Mccains wife is. Take a look at how he wants to continue tax breaks for the wicked & wealthy, John Mccain made a joke the other day on a radio show saying that increased tobacco sales to Iran “might be a way of killing them”.. Why are so many people ready to elect another man with this type of mentality.. Bush’s approval ratings are in the 20’s. Bush endorses Mccain(simple as that). Vote 4 change, VOTE OBAMA

addiction
Category: Friends
People with serious addictions sadden me. They sadden me because they are in a constant state of denial. I’ve seen the most real people become morons in so little time. Cigarettes are something I just don’t understand. Not just because of the overwhelming amount of information compiled about how deadly they are, but because these days there are many more enjoyable & respectable ways to smoke tobacco. Alcoholics are a joke. Always talkin shit, split personalities like a mofucker, & they repeat themselves every day. Its especially sad with alcoholics because in a way they lose their abilities to think at all. People hooked on stimulants are the most untrustworthy people on the planet. They will stab you in the back or rob you first chance they get. Even people you may have known forever can become intolerant & shady from coke or amphetamines. People hooked on pain meds & other downers are the easiest to deal with ( I think) because although they are shifty & untrustworthy they are also sloths. So they’re less likely to do anything drastic, & you can keep your eyes on them, but you can’t really understand them at all, they puke alot & detoxing is hell. Its not always drugs though. People get hooked on sex, money, music, games, computers, ect. All of which can cause people to close out others. KEEP YOUR EYES ON THESE SNAKES. Now notice I said up at the top “People with serious addictions sadden me”. Im not gonna sit here & front like I have no addictions. I’m addicted to my girlfriend & I have a healthy addiction to not so leafy greens.(whatDAfuckYouGonnadoboutIT). On the real tho peeps keep your habits moderate & keep your minds right.

Barack in Berlin
Current mood: argumentative
Category: News and Politics
I watched Barack Obama’s speech today in Berlin Germany & I wish they could vote in our election instead of Texas or something… It looked like woodstock. I saw somewhere that 10,000 people were expected, but to me it looked like even more than that. It was a really good speech, something that Americans & Europeans can both cheer for. I’m glad Barack is getting all the media coverage he is & I’m glad John Mccain is crying about it. Obama deserves the response he gets from the media. Just look at the response he gets from the civilians over there. If Mccain went to Europe he wouldn’t get 1/50th the turnout. The media has always broadcasted what people want. If people get excited about something, then they put it on T.V. . People like the positive attitude of Obama & Europeans like the idea of having a U.S. president that will actually listen to others. He’s like the perfect mixture of J.F.K, Martin Luther King Jr., & Bob Marley. It would be incredibly sad if Americans don’t elect the candidate almost the entire world wants. It should really be a sign to us when so many countries are so caught up in whats happening politically here. Barack Obama really is the perfect uniter & it really is time for all of us to come together….

I’ve come to the point where I just laugh at people who constantly quote the bible, or seriously use it as a reference for their lives. People get that shit pushed into their heads at such a young age in this country & so many never question it. They never take the time to realize that the original writings are Hebrew, which is the very first documented language on this planet. English on the other hand is the newest language. Therefore the translation is not only controversial, alot of it is just rediculous. To convert hebrew to english you literally have to change words. This causes many different interperetations. This means what people worship in this day & age is the opinions of people. The opinions of what hebrew words would mean in english. When you change a few words here & there you can easily change the entire message. The point is we’ve lost the meaning & message of these writings through history, & to base your entire life around the opinions of some people you’ve never met seems REAL DUMB.

why my people, why?
Current mood: inspired
Category: News and Politics
So I’ve been reading Barack Obama’s book (The Audacity of Hope),& I cannot believe that anyone is even considering electing dinosaur mccain for president. Mccain gets the evangelical republicans to laugh by answering tough questions with what they consider humorous one liners. He gets blind Americans to support him by pushing fear into thier heads. Obama has clearly said that not everyone is going to agree with his beliefs or policies, but at the same time he says that he respects everyones opinions & believes in empathy. That to me is the most important thing. I am going to vote for Barack because he reflects my own views down to the pinpoint. Being able to see things from others perspectives even if you disagree, Being able to respect those opinions & understand that others are not neccessarily wrong is very important for a leader. Its the complete opposite of the leadership we have now. John Mccain graduated 894 out of 899 in his class in the naval academy & the only reason he got admitted in the first place was because his father & grandfather were both four-star generals. If you look into George Bush’s records from school & business & obviously politics it is full of error & failure. Not to mention Bush has spent more time on vacation than any president in history. John Mccain seems scarily similar. He takes days off on a weekly basis from campaigning, although being 71 years old thats what you’d expect. If you make under $100,000 a year you’d be rediculously silly to vote for Mccain. I can understand believing in working for your money & getting what you deserve & not rewarding the irresponsible, but so does Obama. The truth is the republicans form of governing is just irresponsible. Americans like to talk like they care about the future generations, but nobody seems willing to pay for the future. Tax breaks for the wealthiest corporations is morally wrong. You know in the fifties & sixties CEO’s of wealthy corporations made about 75 times what thier laborers did. Now those CEO’s make two-hundred sixty something times more. People like Bush & Mccain keep increasing the line between the rich & poor. John Mccain likes to act like he cares about small business & the middle class, but he talks about these tax cuts from Bush being permanent… People don’t seem to understand that when republicans talk about tax cuts its not for you & I, its for their rich buddies. If social security ended tomorrow John Mccain would do just fine, his wife is worth $100,000,000… For this country to continue being the same powerhouse its been in the past 50 years , its gonna take some immediate sacrifice from the wealthy… Most Americans are just so caught up in their everyday lives that they don’t pay attention to what politicians say & allow tricky political tactics to persuade their votes. There are somewhere between 6 & 10 billion people on this planet. There is hundreds of billions of dollars, more than enough money to make everyone secure. I don’t think a complete redistribution of wealth would be proper. I just think the rich should be taxed slightly higher than people who are barely getting by on minimum wage. We’ve let the republicans have their way for quite a long time now, its time for a balance. If we can get past our greed & selfishness, & focus on empathy this country would be a much happier place for all its citizens. Then maybe just maybe if we are all content with our own country we can begin to tackle the bigger worldwide issues.

Obama-Biden
Current mood: amused
Category: News and Politics
Yesterday was a good day for me. Barack Obama chose his vice presidential nominee. Joe Biden is a great choice if you ask me, because it gives Barack somebody that can combat John Mccain on many different levels. He’s got the foreign policy experience & the respect of the senate. He is also someone that is not afraid to speak his mind. I have been an Obama supporter from day 1. I supported him when there were still eight democratic candidates & now he is not only the democratic party’s nominee, but he’s got his vice pick & the convention is within the week, & my favorite part is that the debates between Obama & Mccain are inching nearer and nearer. Finally we get to see idiocy vs. common sense, past vs. future, old vs. youth right before our eyes. I think the head to head debates will open alot of peoples eyes.

Unconscious florida?
Current mood: angsty
Category: News and Politics
I’m so sick of living in a town full of rich assholes. I’m going to cast my vote for Barack Obama and I have my reasons, hell they are all around me. First off, I’m sick of this country being controlled by the rich. George Bush got elected twice the same way John Mccain is attempting to this time, they aim baseless comments at the huge portions of the population that don’t pay enough attention & vote based on soundbites. They say things like “we will lower taxes”. People don’t realize that these tax cuts are not for you or me. The only people that get tax relief under the current republicans are already millionaires. They talk about defense and keeping you safe, when really so many of them have made a profit out of this war, and none of their kids are fighting in it, not to mention we’ve been losing ground in the places we really should be fighting. (afghanistan for one). I’m fed up with the healthcare crisis in this nation that the republicans fail to even acknowledge. I’ve said it before John Mccain is 71 years old, therefore he cannot relate the slightest bit to the younger generations, and based on his policies he doesn’t care about the future he leaves the kids. Everyone knows about the tremendous debt that has built up under George W. Bush, but so many don’t seem to see the totality of this issue. If Bush/Mccain get their way Medicaid/Medicare and social security will all be a wash by sometime near 2050. John Mccain doesn’t care because if his social security went out today he’d do just fine. He & his wife own somewhere between 5 and 10 homes( a fact they continue to avoid) that are worth near $13 million. Barack & Michelle Obama have one home… Barack Obama came from the middle class. Joe Biden who is the official running mate of Obama has a son fighting in Iraq(something Mccain & Bush cannot say) and he wants the war to come to an end. The republicans these days have a seemingly endless lack of perspective & lack of empathy. I’ve been reading sen. Obama’s book The Audacity of Hope & not only do I basically agree with him on every social issue, he stands for empathy something that I stated a couple years ago “was something all humans should feel and understand”.. The ability to be able to see others perspectives even if you disagree. To be able to respect peoples views & understand that all people come from different backgrounds and upbringings & almost nobody shares the exact same outlooks on life. Barack thrives on empathy & doesn’t just step on those who disagree with him like the republicans of recent years. Something that truly angers me is when I hear peoples reasoning for supporting Mccain its often just one issue, or one thing they hear, or sheer ignorance. My generation has almost transcended racism, but this election has forced many racists to surface. So many of Mccain supporters are either voting for him based on race, religion, fear, or like I said they just don’t pay enough attention. I urge those who think this way to JUST NOT VOTE. If people actually look at the views and study them, and then after that still want to vote Mccain I have respect for that, whether it be prolife or what. You see theres my empathy thing, because even though I obviously disagree with prolifers on the subject of abortion & when life starts I still respect their views, because thats what they are THEY’RE VIEWS, not mine, but if your voting for the republican just because your a republican thats always voted republican, thats where I draw the line & tell you YOUR WRONG. The facts are that we are no safer than we were eight years ago ( have people forgotten that 9/11 happened while Bush was president), we are in skyrocketing debt, the planet is in peril, most of the world doesn’t trust us, the gap between the rich and the poor in the U.S. continues to get wider, the republicans don’t even have the decency to raise minimum wage, instead they continue tax breaks for Wal Mart, ExxonMobil, Microsoft and other power houses, drug companies have gotten they’re way for the entire eight Bush years. It’s like Obama says in his book “I don’t like sitting down and watching a football game with my daughters in the room & being forced to see erectial dysfunction commercials on television every fifteen minutes”. Well thats what happens when you make all the lobbyists happy, and let drug companies have they’re way with the country. ITS FUCKING REDICULOUS THAT SO MANY AMERICANS ARE STILL BLIND TO ALL THIS. I beg these people not to vote. John Mccain stated a couple weeks ago that he basically agrees with president Bush on all the major issues, AND IN FLORIDA HE’S STILL AHEAD IN THE POLLS. Now i know there are alot of senior citizens in Florida, but come on are we really that unconscious in this state? On a better note I was watching the Democratic convention and Hillary Clinton gave a powerful speech not only strongly endorsing Barack Obama, but almost angrily addressing her supporters telling them they need to get over they’re bruised feelings and get with the democratic party. It’s rediculous for any of her supporters to even consider voting for Mccain. Her views are nearly identical to Obama’s & if they are not going to vote for him it means they were only voting based on gender, and if they went as far as to vote for Mccain it kinda means they are racist because of how drastically Mccains and Clintons views differ. POINT BEING IF YOUR GONNA VOTE DON’T VOTE BASED ON PARTY LOYALTY OR RACE/GENDER, OR ONE NEWSCAST. DO YOUR HOMEWORK AND VOTE ON THE ISSUES THAT YOU CARE ABOUT, ALL OF THEM NOT JUST ONE. Things are too important at this point in time to let the republicans trick America for the third stait time….

Real vs. unreal
Current mood: artistic
Category: Religion and Philosophy
For centuries humans have been debating facts vs. religion. Everytime throughout history that we’ve had a major scientific breakthrough religion has had to change its position in order to co-exist with scientific findings in an ever changing world. At one point in human history seemingly everything’s explanation was God. God gave us this, or God gave us the power to do that. Over centuries, and these days decades, years, and months, ect. Science has continued to give us better and fuller explanations for why certain things happen or are the way they are. This has forced religion to back itself into a corner, where the only argument it has left is ” you cannot prove we were not created “. Which is true, science cannot go back in time to the beginning of this planet, but this is why in religious families peoples grandparents are generally more religious than their parents, and their parents are usually slightly more religious than they are. This is not my personal experience, thats what the statistics say. So why do so many people still devote their entire lives to something with no proof or scientific basis? In my opinion its probably because of the promise of eternal damnation if they don’t. Fear is a powerful tool that can make people do anything. I honestly believe that George W. Bush and his right wing religious fanatics have cut funding for scientific research so drastically exactly for this reason. They are afraid that science may soon uncover something that would further downgrade their faith. A fear of finding that christianity is a hoax. Why else would they be so afraid of stem-cell research? Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think cloning would be good just because I think a child should grow up with real parents, but it truly scares the shit out of the deeply religious. Christians basically ignore all the other religions on this planet whether they came before or after them, and deem them wrong without any study. I don’t pretend to know what or where we came from, and how we’ve become the way we are. Nobody knows and to act as if your completely sure about something like that is silly if you logically think. I’m not saying we weren’t created, in fact I think its very possible that everything we know may be the work of something higher, but I certainly don’t believe in modern christianity, a religion that has translated scripture from the oldest human language to the most modern, and disregards everyone elses views on this planet. Everyone should watch the film Religulous by Bill Maher. Its a great way to get some laughs at the same time as getting a very modern perspective on this issue.

Gun control
Current mood: aggravated
Category: News and Politics
I’ve heard many people , most of which are old bible thumping NRA advocates, but some that are my age say that Obama is antigun. First of all there has never been a politican nominated to run for president in the United States that is ANTIGUN. In this country it would be impossible to get elected on such a platform. There is a huge difference between gun control and abolishing the purchasing of guns. Yes the constitution does say we have the right to bear arms, but that doesn’t allow us to have RPG’s, or 50 caliburs at our houses, that doesn’t mean we can purchase missiles or hand grenades for home defense. The gun control most politicians speak of is an effort to keep assault rifles out of the hands of gangsters in the inner cities, or to stop the trafficking of these guns to underage people and violent felons. You will never not be able to purchase a handgun in this country(so long as you have a clean record). I’m not sure what these people are afraid of anyway, they seem to forget we live in the south. Good luck trying to take guns away from people in the south. Truthfully democrats just believe in common sense for the most part, as opposed to the BLIND FAITH party(GOP). People need to understand that the circumstances are much different in a big city than in small towns and rural areas. Hunters will never not be able to hunt, as long as they’re are enough animals to kill. I think a handgun should be plenty enough to protect your home. Anyone who thinks they need an AK to protect themselves probably has something to hide, or has an ego problem. Anyway if people can cast a vote based on just that issue they should really take a few steps back and look at the bigger picture. This is a perfect example of how the republicans these days try to make huge monumental elections about silly little issues. My point is when people vote they should vote be thinking about things like the economy, healthcare, the environment, war, and other things that effect us all, not base their vote on small idealogical differences they have with a candidate.

Upon Conversating with me, or even just looking at my myspace you can easily tell I’m very opinionated. I’m always thinking about or talking about things, that depending on who you are make you very passionate, angry, or simply turn you off. I feel its important to address these things, because they are the pressing issues of our time and often without open discussion we cannot find solutions. I’m very open to opposing views. In fact I love to hear everyones perspectives, and in fact I love debate. I think it brings the best out of people. I’m not saying arguments are always good, and some peoples views are just not worth arguing, but a civil conversation from two or more opposing sides is something that helps move us forward as humans.

Current mood: content
Category: News and Politics
Republicans make me laugh. I have done my best to avoid watching their convention because it gets me angry, but I have not been able to help seeing some of it in the news.. All they do is get up on stage & spew negativity. They talk so much about what the democrats are doing wrong, and don’t seem to have anything all that good to say about themselves, except the same old propaganda that we’ve seen before. Most of which is completely filled with lies ( like telling people they will lower taxes for working families, when really that means millionaires). In my perspective people making $250,000 a year or more are not your average working families. They are nominating a 71 year old jackass & a women from Alaska(of all places) with absolutely no experience in foreign policy, or really anything that would qualify her to be president for that matter. Still though the worst part of it all is the complete lack of good ideas on the republicans part. They are offering no new plans for anything. All they want to do is continue rewarding the rich. If you happen to see any of their pathetic exuse for a convention, just notice how out of touch each speaker is with YOUR everyday life.

Mccain can talk about change all he wants, but with his voting record it just aint gonna happen. As for sarah palin trying to dismiss Obama’s experience as a community organizer, He was an organizer in one of the biggest & most diverse cities in the world, while she was mayor of a town with probably only whites & eskimos, & less people than most towns average Americans consider small. They really have no arguments on any of the main issues, they have no answers for the big problems, hell they don’t even have anything positive to say. They would rather spend thier whole convention laughing at & mocking not only the democratic party, but its supporters. These people running for president and vice president with the republicans are prime examples of whats been wrong with Washington D.C. for nearly a decade. Their policies are the reason for the astronomical debt, the assault on science, broken healthcare system, the country being run by oil & prescription drugs, and a divided nation…

Who wants to be god?
Current mood: argumentative
Category: News and Politics
The prolife republicans always say on the issue of abortion that its nobody’s right to play God, but that seems to be exactly what they do on every important issue. Now I know its a “moral” issue to them, but its a prime example of why voting based on only morals is wrong. They try to impose thier views on everyone, and think everyone should have to live under rules that apply to thier faith & morals. They need to realize that not everyone is like them, therefore we should not have to live like them. Just because they feel abortion is wrong, doesn’t mean everyone else feels the same way, so why should they be able “to play God” and make people conform to what they think. At least the democrats give people the choice. How is such a common sense approach wrong. If you don’t believe in abortion then don’t have one, but if your not religious or more specifically prolife why should they have the right to make that choice for you. This is one of the main reasons I am a prochoice person, because I think the republican extremist views and policies make us less free. We came here from Britain to escape persecution & become more free, not to let a bunch of elder christian extremists decide our lives for us 200 years later. The current republican vice presidential nominee doesn’t believe in abortion even in the case of rape or incest. Now let me say this, Sarah Palin is from Alaska, its highly unlikely that she could ever put herself into the shoes of a woman from New York, LA, Chicago, Miami, Daytona Beach, Detroit,ect. that has been raped. So how is she right to tell women like that they should just have the babies, just because she feels abortion is wrong. Why should a woman not have the right to choose for herself, especially in a situation like that. If Mccain/Palin get elected thats something that will be on their agenda, overturning roe v. wade on the supreme court by potentially appointing new extremist christian right wing judges that feel the same way they do. This all has to do with the complete lack of perspective the republican party has these days. I won’t even get into it right now, but she also feels that Global Warming is not being caused by humans, something that any sane scientist on the planet will tell you is an overly extreme view, its undeniable that humanity is the primary cause of global warming. So on the subject of playing God the republicans seem to be more in the wrong than anyone, because in our current modern society its absolutely rediculous to impose such extreme views on everyone. They just think they are so right & everyone else is so wrong, that they should just go ahead & make some of the most important decsisions of people’s lives for them. FUCK THAT

THE WAR ON DRUGS NEEDS TO BE THE NEXT CIVIL RIGHTS REVOLUTION IN THIS COUNTRY
Current mood: sneezy
Category: Life
Man I hate having to report to a place with people I don’t even know & give them samples of my urine. Just so they can act like they are trying to help me with things I don’t even have problems with. Its especially lame in my case because I’m not guilty & the program the court offered me costs less than an attorney would cost if I decided to fight the case. Its sad when people that should be pleading not guilty have to plead guilty because it costs less.. WTF right…. Just one small example of how corrupt & out of date our criminal justice system is. I hope one day our country comes to a realization & stops putting non-violent people in jails, prisons, and the probation system. Its things like this that can be attributed to our union being imperfect. In reality I’m sure it cannot and will not ever be entirely perfect, but it just seems like so many of the problems we face as a society could be fixed with just a little common sense. Anyway this is why I’ve been so damn angsty lately.

American health!
Current mood: tested
Category: Food and Restaurants
Over the past six months my diet has changed alot. Partly due to the influence of others, and partly due to an increased awareness of the negative health effects caused by the average American diet. I started by eliminating fast food, or at least fast food choices that consist of only meat, grease, and cheese. In the current world you have to eat quickly sometimes, theres no getting around that, but cutting out burgers, deep fried junk food, frozen dinners, ect. was much easier than I’d expected. Hell I haven’t even eaten pizza in months, and if you know me well, then you know thats quite an accomplishment. I have always had a liking for most vegetables, so increasing my intake of them was pretty easy as well. I began decreasing the the portions of meat in my meals, and increasing other sources of protein along with hefty vegetable servings. Fruits are probably what I’ve lacked more than anything most of my life. Growing up as a meat & potatoes guy, I never really developed much of an appetite for sweets, and I suspect this is why fruits were not something I ate alot of. To be honest including fruits into my diet has been one of the more difficult changes I’ve made. I started by drinking fruit juices of all types, and moderately began to enjoy eating all sorts of fruits from citrus, to apples, bannanas, grapes, melons, berries, and many other exotic fruits. Mona Vie juice from Brazilian accai berries offers many health benefits, which is why Jenna & I mix it with other fruit juices and drink it on a very regular basis. Dairy has been my main issue though, and is really the only part of this transition I continue to battle with. Although I’ve drastically cut down my dairy consumption(this is a guy who used to go through ice cream, drink glasses of milk, and order extra butter on popcorn), I still have difficulty not using cows milk in cereal, coffee, ect., but with all the negatives that come with cows milk(hormones causing everything from acne to temper issues), this too is something I intend to change. There are plenty of ways to get calcium and those vitamins without putting myself at a higher risk for prostate cancer when I’m old. I’ve come to choose tea & juice more often that soda or coffee as beverages. I’m pretty big on fish & turkey, and don’t care much for beef, chicken, or pork anymore. I’ve come to enjoy tofu or tempeh with black beans & rice in my burritos now, instead of steak & cheese. I even prefer veggie burgers, and veggie hotdogs over the meat counterparts. All of these nutritional changes coupled with good amounts of exercise have changed the way I feel on a regular basis so much for the better. I have more physical & mental energy, and feel altogether happier. I’ve never had the type of metabolism to allow me to get fat, but the shit & garbage in most American food can manifest itself in many ways besides obesity. Our country has seen spikes in diabetes, autism, ADHD/ADD & other behavioral disorders, even depression & anxiety, ands its all starting to come to light that its our food thats causing these things. For decades now doctors have prescribed drugs to treat these things. Well if you do the research its not drugs that are the answer, its lifestyle changes. Doctors are just now starting to admit these facts, but they are under such a strong influence by the drug companies to keep prescribing. Its time doctors, and the people of this country begin to stand up to drug companies, somebodies gotta do it. No wonder our country is currently ranked 19th in healthcare, just ahead of Mexico.

voting for the interests of many vs. voting for the interests of yourself
Current mood: impatient
Category: News and Politics
In early November we have a chance to elect someone to be truly proud of. For the first time in my lifetime, as well as many other Americans we can elect a president that embodies the bob marley, martin luther king, JFK, Tupac type figures of history. This man (Barack Obama) represents us all, not just the rich. He respects all views, not just those that fall in line with his party. As usual Florida is a battleground state. With a mixture of so many different ethnicities & cultural views you’d think it would be an easy grab for the democrats, but there are countless senior citizens (that are pretty much guarenteed to get out and vote), and ignorance/rednecks are always something you can count on, plus alot of rich people that Mccain can continue to caress. All these factors make Florida a difficult prediction in any election. To all the young people that give a damn, I urge you to get out & keep this country free. So many more people ages 18-35 have registered democratic this year than almost anytime in history. If the young people show up at the polls Obama will surely win. We must also remember that in 2000 Bush beat Gore by only 55 votes in Florida(although he almost surely won, considering the recount blunder, and the votes disregarded in the most highly democratic area in the state). We need to stand up for the constitution & not let the right wing restrict our freedoms, we need to protect women’s rights, we need to get healthcare under control, and step up educationally in the world, we need to get ourselves off of the oil addiction thats destroying the earth. We need to vote for Barack Obama, because a continuation of the policies we’ve seen recently will definetely be a disaster, & the people who are going to vote for Mccain this year are either, blind, ignorant, rich, racist, or haters. Haters of intelligence, Haters of science, Haters of anything outside the traditional beer drinking, oil guzzling, war starting selfish American ways. Well I hate to break it to them, but the traditional American ways are not working. Just look at what had to happen to wallstreet (out of taxpayer money).

EGO
Current mood: annoyed
Category: Life
Ego is a structure that is erected by a nuerotic individual who is a member of a nuerotic culture against the facts of the matter. And culture, which we put on like an overcoat, is the collectivized concensus about what sort of nuerotic behaviors are acceptable.

The rednecks & alcoholics in our culture are a great example of this. I was in a convenience store last night & I witnessed two guys sporting camo making fun of a man (probably gay) wearing flambuoyant earrings & a rainbow shirt. This man being made fun of was probably much more intelligent & friendly than the hicks making comments. I shook my head at them & considered making some comments of my own directed at them. How is it that they think they are so perfect. They were buying a pack of busch & I find the way they dress rather funny (with thier wranglers & camo hats). I just don’t think such comments are neccessary, & I certainly am above making arguments toward them, because thats the exact action I found myself angry about. People need to realize this is America & this is 2008. Not everyone feels the same way about everything or almost anything for that matter. People need to accept others ways of life & views, no matter how much they differ from thier own, or at least keep their narrow minded views out of public. When will empathy be felt & respect be shown… This is the same for racial issues, drugs, religion, politics, ect..

People these days
Current mood: nauseated
Category: Food and Restaurants
People have been making a really big deal about this Chinese milk contamination thing. I think its a good time to point out that all milk is pretty much poison. It changes peoples temperments, causes skin problems, gastrointestinal problems, more people are becoming allergic to cow’s milk, & its now coming to light that its most likeley carcinogenic to the prostate. Its sad because its one of those American mis-steps through history. We just assume the safety of certain things, without thinking at all about the potential for long term issues. More studies have been conducted on the stuff we spray on our grass than things that most Americans consume so readily like milk. Things are beginning to look slightly more positive though, more people are becoming consciouss of what they eat, and the federal government is slowly but surely actually warning us about the problems we could face consuming certain products regularly. If not for you, do it for the next generation. Dont Raise Your Children on Cow’s Milk.

last night
Current mood: optimistic
After watching last nights democratic vice presidential debate I was amazed at how many people the GOP can still trick when they are on thier game. Biden was laying out the facts & all Palin could do is stick to what she does best, which is lie & spit out bumper sticker responses that are aimed at the ignorant viewers. Sadly these ignorant people are the ones that haven’t made up their minds yet & are likely to get swayed by silly little soundbites. Anyone that thinks Palin won that debate is thinking & voting based on personality & gender, not substance or issues. Although I’m very confident about the election on Nov. 4′th. Obama is way ahead in the polls right now, especially in the states he needs to win. If the polls hold up he is going into the election way ahead in the electoral votes at around 250 while Mccain has 189. You need 270 to win & there are still nine tossup states. As of now Obama leads in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, and has even taken the lead here in Florida. Those are some of the most key states & if he can win all the states he is supposed to & then just win one of those then its done & Barack Obama will be the next president.

Religulous movie
Current mood: handsome
Category: Movies, TV, Celebrities
Last night Jenna & I went to see the movie Religulous by Bill Maher. I advise anyone to go see this movie. I have been a longtime skeptic of most religion & this movie offers alot of perspective, at the same time it tears at religion & shows how funny it really is. Like Maher says religion “is like a comedy gold mine just waiting for someone to tap into.” Although they are not playing it at any theater in our county, so we had to drive to Winter Park to see it. The theater was packed, everyone was laughing out loud, & people actually applauded at the end. I can’t remember too many movies I’ve seen that end with clapping. To me organized religion is something that is holding humanity back & even causing alot of the violence & cruelty that people exhibit. Religion justifies so many of the things our society & many others have gotten wrong over the centuries & continues to offer these outdated ideas to new generations. At the same time now more people are non-believers than ever. According to the film 16% of Americans are skeptics. Thats more than Blacks (12%), Jews (2 or 3%), and NRA members (1%), & all these demographic groups have places in the political platforms, or at least get mentioned in debates. The movie was hilarious & I think anyone who is a skeptic, non-believer, or doesn’t get easily offended should go see it. Probably the best time I’ve ever had in a movie theatre. I think its long overdue that this subject gets addressed. ALL HAIL QUETZALCOATL – bring on 2012!!!

Literal
Current mood: cultured
Category: News and Politics
The republican party never ceases to amaze me when it comes to distorting the reality of things, they even change the way words are percieved by so many average citizens. For the argument I’m about to make I didn’t need to go any further than the Webster’s dictionary at my own house. The argument that one of the largest portions of the platform they run their campaigns on is actually not even true to its dictionary definition.
You see many republicans (I’m sure the majority of the base) identify themselves as pro-life. The fact is these people are not pro-life at all. Pro-human maybe, pro-birth maybe, pro-human embryo for sure, but in no way are they pro-life.
DICTIONARY DEFINITION OF LIFE- THE FORM OF EXISTENCE THAT DISTINGUISHES ANIMALS AND PLANTS FROM INORGANIC SUBSTANCES AND DEAD ORGANISMS – THE CHARACTERISTIC STATE OF AN ORGANISM THAT HAS NOT DIED.
First of all the vast majority of republicans support the war & support the death penalty. This alone should disqualify them as having a pro-life stance, but the dictionary definition of life allows me to criticize them further. You see anything living clearly falls into the category of life, and this includes all plants & animals. To me people that don’t eat meat are more pro-life than these republicans. I’m sure that most of them not only eat meat, but pay no attention to the amount of cruelty & death that surrounds the process in which they get their beef, chicken, pork, ect. Most of these people also turn a blind eye to the destruction of the rainforests, which is probably the largest loss of life(plant & animal) on the planet. Most republicans don’t seem to mind chopping down trees, in fact their party doesn’t exactly have a record of conservation.
Point being to actually be a pro-life person you’d have to be vegan/vegetarian, environmentalist, antiwar, anti-death penalty, anti-abortion. Now thats a tough stance to have, but I would have an enormous ammount of respect for anyone that called themselves pro-life and actually lived up to that. The people that are calling themselves pro-life in this society these days are nothing more than pro-human embryo. They are irrational, closed-minded, and scary.
They say that they are pro-life because its the less difficult approach, because that way you don’t have to take a stance on a difficult & controversial issue. They do it because it sounds good. They even go as far as calling their opposition “babykillers” and saying they are “trying to play God”. Tell me this, what sounds more like playing God to you? Those who want to give the choice to each individual women & family, or those who want to make the choice for them?
There are a couple more definitions that I find interesting. Republicans constantly praise themselves as “conservatives”, while trying to mock the democrats as liberals like its a bad thing. Again these definitions came right out of the dictionary, not my head.

CONSERVATIVE- INCLINED TO PRESERVE THE EXISTING ORDER OF THINGS, OPPOSED TO CHANGE. MODERATE, CAUTIOUS.

LIBERAL- CHARACTERIZED BY OR INCLINING TOWARDS OPINIONS OR POLICIES FAVORING PROGRESS, OR REFORM, AS IN POLITICS OR RELIGION. NOT INTOLERANT OR PREJUDICED; BROAD-MINDED.

Its no secret that Barack Obama represents change, progress, reform, and a more open-minded approach to many of the current policies. Whats funny is that recently John Mccain has been preaching change and reform as well(due to falling poll numbers), but this goes against the definition fo conservative(something all republicans consider themselves in one way or another). Change and reform from John Mccain, come on now, this is not who he is or what he represents. They’re lying to us. Not only does his campaign think we’re all stupid, but like Bush he’s counting on the fact that much of America is. They know that alot of Americans base their votes on T.V. commercials, soundbites, and personal feelings rather than actually looking into the issues. So when the politics of fear & hate stop working they’re now showing that they will actually just lie to you. Like all of a sudden we are supposed to believe that the party that has always sided with business, corporations, and the wealthy is actually on the side of the middle class & women. (ITS FUCKING BULLSHIT)

The energy issue is another spot that the republicans don’t seem to understand the words they’re using. Both the Obama-Biden & Mccain-Palin tickets talk alot about energy independence, but the democrats are the only ones who seem to know what it would mean to be independent with our energy. Mccain-Palin see energy independence as tapping into all the oil reserves surrounding our country. The facts clearly state that only 3% of the worlds oil is in our territory. The United States guzzles 25% of the worlds oil, so even if we drill everywhere we know of we’d still be purchasing alot of oil, and thats not being independent. Barack Obama wants to use clean-coal & nuclear power at the same time as giving scientists the proper funding to utilize renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, biofuels, waste, ect.. As well as make sure automobiles have better fuel-efficiency standards as we shift off of oil in the next 10-15 years ( something Mccains plan couldn’t accomplish).

The GOP these days doesn’t seem to know what energy independence even means, nor do they remember what it means to be conservative, hell they don’t even seem to know what the word life means. I think they should at least figure out what it is that they’re talking about before they’re aloud in the white house again.

These days everybody likes to drink, scared to think, scared of what you’ll find beneath. Even though your gut is big & you got rotted teeth. Your scared to analyze things cuz ur mind is weak. Started off drinkin beer then you turned to tweak. Lookin like a crazy man, feelin like a freak, and aint nobody feelin ya cuz ur crazy G. I mean how you gonna front when ur mind aint free. Often a victim of hostility, cuz your peeps all lack mental stability. Listen son & you will soon see that ghanja is the only remedy to help you cope with stress & emotions, well except for synthetic potions, but I guess thats for another verse, so jus sit back while I rehearse, the next ones so phat you might need a nurse, so get one on standby & jus relax.

amazingly satisfied
Current mood: accomplished
Category: News and Politics
This country finally decided to go with common sense instead of voting because they are afraid. Instead of allowing politics to completely divide us we have chosen to mostly come together over it. Jenna & I feel so strongly about all this because we worked so hard to help make it happen here in Volusia county. We went out to knock on doors countless times to help fight the status quo. The status quo is DEFAULT here in New Smyrna Beach. many old people & people who live in rural areas bought into all the negative ads. We had to fight a level of ignorance that I’d forgotten existed & even surpassed my expectations in many ways. We had to work hard to beat the people that stand with picket signs yelling “vote for change, not for color” & “Vote for oil”. I’m so glad its all over & I’m overwhelmingly happy with the decision America made. All of the misconceptions about Obama were disregarded because the people realized they were not true. We the people decided we were not going to vote based on things that would have no effect on us when the president gets into office. Obama stayed positive the entire time & I think at times Mccain seemed like a bully when he continued to beat up on Barack & Barack just kept coming with the positivity. At the end of the day there was a enormous amount of satisfaction for me because Obama won here in Volusia. If anyone here doubts timewave zero/mayan prophecy you should look at it. Timewave zero shows a huge descent into novelty at some point in early November 2008 & I don’t think anyone could have predicted that this election would be this big 25 years ago when timewave zero was created. So in my opinion we are in for a ride here leading up to 2012 & my personal belief is we will end the age of war & begin the age of peace for humanity.

Its humorous these days watching the divided republican party try to excite their base and defend their stupid outdated policies on the economy and healthcare. The so called fairness and moral values that they promised to bring with them to the white house have shown an enormous downside. The economic policies that Ronald Reagan introduced that worked so well in the 80’s and even worked somewhat under Bush 1 have proven to be inadequate for dealing with the global economy today. When you continuously give the biggest tax breaks to the richest people, and then constantly deregulate their activities on wall street your essentially trusting foxes in a henhouse. What you end up seeing is the gap between the rich and the poor growing larger and larger until it gets unbearable(like now). You see many people falling out of the middle class into poverty. No country has ever had much success historally with a shrinking middle class, because then even the wealthy peoples businesses and investments start failing when nobody is spending money. What we have seen over the last eight years is what the republicans have been trying to achieve for two decades now. When Bush took office in 2000 and they gained control of the house and senate soon thereafter we began to witness what it is their ideas mean for the majority of us. Privatization of everything from healthcare to social security has been on their agenda. Less money spent on education, infrastructure, & science, and more directed towards military offense. More money in the bank accounts of the wealthy and less in the pockets of the poor. More people without healthcare than I can remember at any point in my life or most anyone elses for that matter. The costs of nearly everything have skyrocketed because corporations have gained control. So with this election within a week they’re trying to use the same fear tactics that worked to beat Gore & Kerry. None of their positions make sense anymore so their scare us by calling Barack Obama a socialist, wealth distributor, tax and spend liberal, and trying to tie him to things like terrorism and voting fraud which they have never had one shred of evidence to support. Its crazy to me that anyone would support the policies of the republicans or buy into the false propaganda they spread, but they’ve truly brought out the crazies this election cycle. They have once again exploited the uneducated and since they are running against an african american it has shown how much racists and the republican party have in common. They have harbored this racism and pandered to it in discrete ways. The American people have shown a great resistance to this massive ignorant extremism though, and finally I think the grand majority are seeing past the bullshit lies and negative campaigning realizing that socialism, changes in the tax code, and phony claims are not what WE THE PEOPLE should be afraid of. What the people really need to be afraid of is Johm McCain allowing this countries situation to worsen by further embracing the ideas that brought us to this point. We need to drop the philosophy that puts the private sector before the public and get ourselves out of this age of materialism and division, and once again become the land of opportunity for all.

Don’t ignore ignorance
Current mood: chipper
Category: Life
Ignorance, racism/hate, and in my point of view organized religion are a plague on our country that resembles an infectious disease. In this so called land of the free so many people don’t think freely. Some are influenced by the media, some are influenced by their peers, some never think outside of their church, but the point is with so much information available to us why do so many people just let life float by not giving much thought or caring about anything outside of our own existence? I think the fear that lives inside religious circles has alot to do with it. Most christians think there will be a judgement day or end of times, many of them think this will happen in their lifetimes(just as so many did in the past). When people feel certain that doomsday is right around the corner I don’t think its all that important to them for things to change or progress to happen. When large portions of society feel this way it makes sense that progress is slowed and nothing ever gets done. Thats just one example of religion holding people back and encouraging closed-mindedness. (IF YOUR CONVINCED THE WORLDS GOING TO END SOON IT MAKES FIXING IT NOW SEEM ALOT LESS APPEALING EX. GEORGE W. BUSH, SARAH PALIN)

I don’t think very many people consider themselves ignorant, but for those of us that use our brains regularly they’re easy to pick out. So many people on this planet want to express their own opinion, but not listen to anyone elses. This to me is one of the major problems with human beings at this point. We could get so many things done if we’d all just start listening to each other with respect and focus on the things we have in common, instead of being so divisive all the time. Seems like everyone these days wants to criticize someone else. I’m criticizing heavily right now as I do so often, but I feel that ignorance is one of the few things that deserves constant criticism. If everyone that was bias of gay, different ethnic groups, different religions, and different ways of life directed their oppostion at ignorance there would be a whole lot less uneducated people.

I KNOW SOME PEOPLE WOULD SAY “WELL YOU CRITICIZE RELIGION” AND MAY CONSIDER THAT HYPOCRITICAL. I’M NOT COMPLETELY CRITICAL OF ALL RELIGION, I’M JUST SKEPTICAL OF MOST OF IT, AND CRITICIZE MUCH OF WHAT RELIGION HAS BECOME IN THE ERA WE LIVE IN. TO ME RELIGION SHOULD MAKE PEOPLE BETTER & BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER, NOT CLOSE PEOPLES MINDS & TEAR US APART.

Current mood: loved
Category: News and Politics
I Went to see Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton at a rally earlier. 60,000 people showed up. I’m optomistic about the outcome of this election, because Obama is ahead in the polls in some of the battleground states like Florida, Colorado, Nevada ect. He has the entire west coast on lock, the entire northeast on lock, Michigan, Wisconsin, pennsylvania, minnesota on lock. As of right now (14 days til election) John Mccain would have to win all of the states he is supposed to, plus every single one of the battleground states (not gonna happen), plus win a blue state or two(probably won’t happen either). So its looking like I might actually be able to be proud of my country for the first time in a long time. If things hold up we will see the first African American president, the first president who was not born into riches, a president who fights for social & economic justice& equality, A president that plays the role of Robin Hood, taking a little money from the rich so everyone else has a chance to do well. A new generation in American politics.

What you end up seeing is the gap between the rich and the poor growing larger and larger until it gets unbearable(like now). You see many people falling out of the middle class into poverty. No country has ever had much success historally with a shrinking middle class, because then even the wealthy peoples businesses and investments start failing when nobody is spending money. What we have seen over the last eight years is what the republicans have been trying to achieve for two decades now. When Bush took office in 2000 and they gained control of the house and senate soon thereafter we began to witness what it is their ideas mean for the majority of us. Privatization of everything from healthcare to social security has been on their agenda. Less money spent on education, infrastructure, & science, and more directed towards military offense. More money in the bank accounts of the wealthy and less in the pockets of the poor. More people without healthcare than I can remember at any point in my life or most anyone elses for that matter. The costs of nearly everything have skyrocketed because corporations have gained control. So with this election within a week they’re trying to use the same fear tactics that worked to beat Gore & Kerry. None of their positions make sense anymore so their scare us by calling Barack Obama a socialist, wealth distributor, tax and spend liberal, and trying to tie him to things like terrorism and voting fraud which they have never had one shred of evidence to support. Its crazy to me that anyone would support the policies of the republicans or buy into the false propaganda they spread, but they’ve truly brought out the crazies this election cycle. They have once again exploited the uneducated and since they are running against an african american it has shown how much racists and the republican party have in common. They have harbored this racism and pandered to it in discrete ways. The American people have shown a great resistance to this massive ignorant extremism though, and finally I think the grand majority are seeing past the bullshit lies and negative campaigning realizing that socialism, changes in the tax code, and phony claims are not what WE THE PEOPLE should be afraid of. What the people really need to be afraid of is Johm McCain allowing this countries situation to worsen by further embracing the ideas that brought us to this point. We need to drop the philosophy that puts the private sector before the public and get ourselves out of this age of materialism and division, and once again become the land of opportunity for all.

amazingly satisfied
Current mood: accomplished
Category: News and Politics
This country finally decided to go with common sense instead of voting because they are afraid. Instead of allowing politics to completely divide us we have chosen to mostly come together over it. Jenna & I feel so strongly about all this because we worked so hard to help make it happen here in Volusia county. We went out to knock on doors countless times to help fight the status quo. The status quo is DEFAULT here in New Smyrna Beach. many old people & people who live in rural areas bought into all the negative ads. We had to fight a level of ignorance that I’d forgotten existed & even surpassed my expectations in many ways. We had to work hard to beat the people that stand with picket signs yelling “vote for change, not for color” & “Vote for oil”. I’m so glad its all over & I’m overwhelmingly happy with the decision America made. All of the misconceptions about Obama were disregarded because the people realized they were not true. We the people decided we were not going to vote based on things that would have no effect on us when the president gets into office. Obama stayed positive the entire time & I think at times Mccain seemed like a bully when he continued to beat up on Barack & Barack just kept coming with the positivity. At the end of the day there was a enormous amount of satisfaction for me because Obama won here in Volusia. If anyone here doubts timewave zero/mayan prophecy you should look at it. Timewave zero shows a huge descent into novelty at some point in early November 2008 & I don’t think anyone could have predicted that this election would be this big 25 years ago when timewave zero was created. So in my opinion we are in for a ride here leading up to 2012 & my personal belief is we will end the age of war & begin the age of peace for humanity.

Current mood: cynical
Its so funny to me how people can be so hypocritical.. Talkin shit about something & then reppin it with pride the next minute. Actin generous & stingy at the same time. Crazy fuckin egos on folks these days. People so easily forget that we are all part of the same struggle. We have similar problems, emotions, and enjoyments. So detached from what life should or could be, like your living in one of those snow globes & have absolutely no control. Its amazing how people say one thing & do the exact opposite. Humans don’t even respect one another, certainly don’t respect the animals or the planet we live on. People act like they care but continue to promote the problems. I guess its better to act like you care than it is to just be a complete asshole, but then again at least those people are being honest. its wishful thinking for me to hope the immature dramatic bullshit will end. I try to be an optimist but sometimes you can’t kid yourself..

you gotta eat
Current mood: angsty
Category: Food and Restaurants
Its been a good little bit since I’ve gone crazy typing about something, so I think its high time for a rant of sorts. Some things get on my nerves so much I feel the need to address them one way or another, so here goes. I hate it when people show disrespect to vegetarian/vegans over what they eat. The other day I actually saw two scrawny little rednecks in a shitty old truck with a bumper sticker that said “Vegetarian is an old indian word for poor hunter”. I thought to myself what could thier motive possibly be? Why target vegetarians? Other examples are more subtle like if somebody that you know offers you food with milk or eggs in it knowing full well that you don’t eat milk or eggs, or even worse if you ask them if there is milk or eggs in the food & they tell you no just because they want to see you eat it(that shit is fucked up). I hate having to be hesitant when people offer me food. Its almost like people think that WE THINK we’re lactose & tolerant and think we’re going to get sick, & just wanna prove something. Really though most people that change thier diet drastically into a vegan or vegetarian diet do it because of moral reasons & the health benefits, not because it makes us sick.. We do it because we don’t agree with the large scale breeding & slaughtering of animals & the treatment they recieve. Not too mention all the cloned meat these days. Personally I do it because it makes me feel much better. I’m never short of breath, I’m nowhere near as tense as I used to be, I can run farther & longer then ever. So show some respect to people that don’t eat meat or dairy, don’t try to slip that shit into something or continuously offer people things they don’t eat to try and prove it tastes good or something. I know some of that shit tastes good. I didn’t stop eating it because I don’t like how it tastes, I didn’t stop eating it because it makes me sick. I made my descision based on what I believe and feel. The status quo might be real warm & comfy sometimes, but that don’t make it right. I don’t even think about eating meat these days. I’ve grown to love what my diet consists of. If anything the variety of foods I eat have grown. I don’t care what people eat & I don’t expect people to care what I eat. SO DON’T…

Some people find me irritating & can get sick of me because of the way I speak my mind, but let me ask those of you this… Isn’t it better to have a friend that tells you exactly how they feel about something, rather than sucking up to you & letting you hear what you wanna hear. I can think of many of my good friends that invest thier trust in the wrong people. They base their friendships on what & how much people can do for them, instead of real reasons for having friends such as actually caring & being there when it matters… It makes me sick to my stomach when I think of good people hanging out with people who talk massive trash about them behind their backs. I guess thats life, being a hypocrit may be convenient at times but your true colors bleed through eventually.. I say what I mean & I’ll say it straight to your face…. If only ya’ll people knew the type of things others say about ya…

Let us escape
Current mood: blissful
Category: Life
I really hope that the modern generation of youngsters can escape the way of life that we’ve been brought to accept. The baby boomers are destroying this planet swiftly & surely, leaving behind a gigantic mess that will need to be taken care of by everyone under 30 years old now. Don’t get me wrong many of these folks are truly great people & its not completely there fault. They were just as mislead by thier elders as we have been today. I’m crossing my fingers that the next few years will be filled with healing & not cataclysm, and although its certainly hard not to be concerned in the modern period we inhabit, there are some positives beginning to surface.. Still most of the time it seems that the false timing frequency we embrace & know as the gregorian calender is subconsciously leading us to an inevitable end, or at least to a point that we will need to drastically change the way we are. All throughout documented history whenever a civilization has reached its full potential it then starts to fall apart. Once all possibilities have been realized and exausted we evolve. In our case its going to be a mental evolution. Most people rarely think about how our calendar effects our lives. People are so used to it that they don’t see how it acts as a programming device for how we live our lives. Our current world is stuck in fake time & it seems we’re running out of that. In my opinion we need to stop running on solar time & switch back to the more accurate lunar calendars of the indigenous maya. We need to turn away from these technological devices that are severing us from the planet that birthed us(unfortunately we’ve become completely dependent on them, i hate the fact that I have to communicate this over a computer..). We need to merge the knowledge we’ve gained over the last hundreds of years through sound scientific research with the vast wisdom of indigenous tribes & thier shamans of the past. We must in fact escape this chaos we’ve created by reverting back to the earth & remembering what we are & where we came from. We need to live life & not let life live us.. the current age is expiring

Nba finals tonight – Magic & Lakers… If this series was happening 2 or 3 years from now I would probably think the magic were going to win, but in this particular season I believe that L.A. has a serious edge. # 24 still in his prime with a very skilled set surrounding him, not to mention how much more finals experience he has than probably any of the magic players combined. Although I wasn’t sure the magic were going to get by the celtics at first & I really didn’t think they’d beat cleveland, so it should be interesting.. I’m not really a fan of either team(or any team. I’m just a fan of the game of basketball(hate all other mainstream sports).. So it doesn’t matter to me who wins. Although I don’t believe Orlando will win this year, I think its almost inevitable that they will eventually. As long as they have dwight howard on their team they will most likely be in the playoffs every year.

New era of ME!!
Current mood: hopeful
Category: Life
It has taken me a good while to configure my playing board right. You have to be able to count cards to manipulate your hand in this world. Those are metaphors, but they speak true to the life I live. I have proven that a positive mindset along with the right attitude can change nearly any aspect of your life in a positive way. Well, I’ve proven that to myself at least. Still though no matter how happy I am I find it impossible to ignore the chaos so much of humanity is creating all the fucking time. I realize that last statement could mean many things & I don’t mean wars, laws, politics, or anything large-scale(thats a different conversation). I mean peoples mentality & the global ego that much of our species is consumed with. Why must we be so instinctively entranced by money, material possesions, power, fame, ect. All the reading, studying, observing, & thinking that I’ve been doing over the last 6 to 8 years, along with the profound inner experiences I’ve grown accustomed to having have led me to certain conclusions. I don’t want much more than I need. My friends & family, shelter, food, and freedom to do what ever I want as long as i’m not hurting anything(i mean anything, not just anyone. Big diff.). There is this idea deep seeded in people that your somehow better for having money. Everyone is so preoccupied with getting college educations so they can eventually have more money than everyone else. People say “you gotta have a college education to make it in this world.”. Well I plan to fight against THAT world as long as I can. Why should people have to be trained from early childhood all the way through high school, just to be coerced into paying for more school, so they can eventually fill their position in life collecting money and keeping the cycle going. My goal has been simple. Find something I don’t mind doing that doesn’t consume all of my time, save up whatever funds I need to get by & just fucking live life. Why be so concerned with getting yourself to some high & mighty status? Work your ass off to get to where you think you wanna be, just to realize its over & you didn’t enjoy yourself. Maybe I’m wrong about everything(i’m open to the mere chance), because I know some people would call me crazy for saying I’d rather be homeless than be filthy rich. Money makes people insane. Theres always haters in every situation, people can criticize all they want about my lifestyle, but let me ask this. If you live your entire life happy is that not all that matters? If your a stressed out rich asshole thats only true love is money does that make you right? If you feel that the rush for drama is more appealing than a plain life cuz life is insane so insanity is a sane life, I say to that FEED your HEAD.

So sit back listen and get your head str8 – I’m all up in it – sittin here grinnin – keepin heads spinnin – with the continuous rythyhm – just keep talkin, gossip like women.

Current mood: annoyed
Category: Life
It is an interestingly beautiful world that we live in. Full of wonderous astonishing experience. Which is why I find it hard to believe with all there is to learn out there, everything there is to see, feel, think, ect. So many of us get caught up spending our lives doing the most trivial of things. It seems our cultures obsession with dominance and materialism has led so many otherwise smart influencial people to get stuck in the glittery, money hungry, supertechnological aspects of our civilization and forget about the fine print of our species, The magical fantastic side of the human mind, that shamans, poets, prophets and others used for centuries before dominant male mindedness suppressed certain sacred altered states of consciousness. From that point on logic & materialistic science have replaced mother earth as our supreme source of knowledge. Over the centuries time and time again the idea that plants could give rise to true religious experience has been suppressed by the dominant male ego. Here we are watching first hand the consequences of our ancestors ancestors abandoning their true values. The hypocritical nature of our entire system(especially the capatalist westerner system) has led many young people to question their judeo christian upbringing in which a single god-king deity is worshipped and there is no direct relationship to the divine that all humans at one time had access to, and actually still do but don’t know it. This cry goes out to any and all who understand what I am speaking of. We need to once again understand the nature of this planet and ourselves by bringing back to light certain methods that empowered the minds of previous humanity, and that today some still know to be true, but are not spoken of because of the fear of persecution, or because of the brainwashing abilities of government and religious institutions. Modern day religion in the west is another story for another day in which I can go on and on. The problems we face as a species are now so great that they cannot be politically fixed. Our current crises will only be addressed when we remember what we are & where we came from. When we once again view this world as a living thing which we grew from and not our playground. When we stop letting a monotheistic religion based on peoples anxieties and fears control our population. At a time when information is more readily available than ever, the majority sadly ignore it or if anything use it against progress. It is time to wake up, many already have, and if you haven’t your about to be abruptly shaken awake. A new worldview is inevitable if our species plans to survive. Those who are less conscious of this will have a harder time adapting, those who are already conscious of such things will be considered the priest and/or shamans of a new religion in which humanity opens its third eye, invokes the logos, and truly connects with the cosmos once again, allowing us to begin healing our planet at the beginning of a new golden age. This has been about as positive as I can paint the future. Many other outcomes are far more likely and far worse. As you can see I don’t wanna destroy religion, just one part of it. I think religion is great if we can all adopt a new one. Jesus Christ created one of the greatest religions of all time, that is until he wasn’t around to control it anymore, it went nothing but downhill from there, and so did we. Modern humans have the ability to shape the physical world into nearly anything we want. Let us now reshape our psychological world as well.

drank
Current mood:chilled up
Category: Life
One of the first things I believe we must do to fix our current society is slow the consumption of alcohol. Alcohol to me explains alot about our culture and is a major reason we see such an unfair image placed upon females. Think about the extent to which images of sexual desirability in our society are associated with sophisticated use of alcohol. How many women have thier first sexual experience in an atmosphere of alcohol use that ensures that these crucial experiences take place entirely on dominator terms. The strongest argument for the legalization of any drug is that society has been able to withstand the legalization of alcohol. If we can tolerate alcohol use, what drug cannot be absorbed into society? We can almost see the toleration of alcohol as the distinguishing feature of western culture. This tolerance is related not only to our approach to sexual politics, but also to, for example, a reliance on sugar and red meat which are complimentary to an alcohol lifestyle. In spite of natural food fads & an increase in dietary awareness, the typical American adult diet continues to be one of sugar, meat, and alcohol. This is neither healthy nor ecologically sound. It promotes heart disease, abuse of the land, toxic addiction and intoxification. it exemplifies, in short everything that is wrong with us, everything we’ve been left with as a result of a millenium of the wrong ideas being promoted. Alcohol has always been there to continue us down this path. Alcohol helps prepare a man for battle, helps nerve a man or woman for love, and keeps any authentic perspective of self and world at bay. It is unsettling to realize that the delicately maintained web of diplomatic agreements and treaties standing between us and nuclear armageddon was fabricated in the atmosphere of misguided sentimentality and blustering bravado that is typical of alcoholic personalities everywhere.

Current mood: blah
Category: Life
Unlike most of my disillusioned peers I’ve decided to make a mission out of my life. To actually live by what I believe in and not only make a difference literally, but to set a good example as well. I took my diet on a drastic 180 degree turn 8 months ago and stopped eating animal products of any kind. Not only did I make this decision for my personal health and the welfare of animals, but for environmental reasons as well. Most meat eaters, although maybe conscious of their own diet, have no idea how bad their habit is for the planet(just look into it). Once people are aware of certain facts, I find it disgustingly irresponsible if they don’t change their ways based on what they’ve learned. When I see someone do something so childish as throwing trash from a car, or trashing things that could be recycled, it makes me want to react as if they just dissed my mother(and ya’ll don’t wanna see that). We must avoid the mentality that tells us its okay to do such things just because we’re only individuals, because its the collective consciousness of people that think that way devouring our planet. Maybe it is too far gone for the actions of any one individual to make a difference. Then again though I think of someone like me who used to rep fast food chains and consume copious amounts of sugar, and if I can stop thinking about taste and redirect my diet toward what foods can do for me , anything can happen. Instead of trying to fit into our social structure I’m staying true to myself. I’m trying to exemplify a complete open-mindedness. We can no longer ignore our responsibilities to this planet and think it will never effect us, because a massive consensus of the smartest people on earth says it will. Anyone with a spine, conscious, and brain needs to wipe the clueless look off their face, stop looking like a child that doesn’t care their mothers are yelling at them, and lets make an attempt to fix things. An attempt to stop the mass extinction of species that has been happening over the last 50 years as a result of toxic scientific industrialism. Its easier than one might think to reconnect with the origins of humanity. The tools are certainly available. All the ancient forgotten knowledge of humanity is available to us through plant teachers and their derivitives, and if legalization of drugs sounds radical to you, that just shows how far America has drifted from what our founders intended it to be. If we don’t act very quick I have a feeling we will be a computerized version of humanity stuck in a purgatory where we can’t remember at all where we came from or where we even are, surely no idea or control over where we’re headed. 10 years from now I hope our culture isn’t still worshipping drug, oil, insurance companies, and other giant corporations disguised as god.

Its sad to see the downfall of a well intentioned community organization like acorn. Its even sadder to see the enormous influence the corporate media has on our public perspective. Too many folks take things they hear on t.v. way to literally, and once one of these giant media outlets reports something its as if it enters the minds of millions without question as the truth. The two party system has such a stronghold on Americas mental that people are immediately cautious and untrusting of any newly emerging party or movement. These ignorant tea parties are most certainly a product of the mass media. The opinions of the rich and powerful are all that gets portrayed on t.v. news, stirring up fear and paranoia about changes to maintain their world the way it is. They have even been so bold as to lie, fabricate, and use scary terms. Even though the fringe elements and racial biases are minimal, it continues to be what the media chooses to talk about, failing to recognize the decline of our current healthcare system, and playing off the need to reform it as simply a liberal agenda or the opinion of Barack Obama. They’ve made it seem as if he is alone and this is singly his plan, when in reality the ideas for health reform have been being discussed for decades by medical professionals and politicians alike. I unfortunately heard Mitt Romney saying that the people freaking out in town halls have “made sure he won’t get his way”. Talk like that is upsetting. It seems he forgets how many people it took to vote Obama into the white house, and of those millions of people a very large percentage support the presidents plan and want to see it implemented. The funniest part of all this is that while these people go to these tea parties to protest what they think is the government ripping them off (or worse), they fail to recognize that these parties are funded by huge corporations that would lose profit from Obama’s policies. Just think about that, people gathering around supporting and protecting mega corporations that constantly rip off the public to protest our government trying to give us healthcare. Wow am I glad I don’t see things their way. Let me just say this is America, anyone alive now that was raised here has enjoyed the benefits of our government. Whether it be protection from criminals, emergency workers, schools, hospitals, hell even mail, so why the hell are people bitching a government health insurance option?

global media
Current mood: artistic
Category: Life
As more and more Americans are turning to their computers for an alternate news source, it makes me wonder how long it will take before the major media outlets change and give the people the truth they so desperately want? Or until the government decides to strip us of our rights and censor the internet the way the do everything else. These could both be possible outcomes. Many Americans are becoming wise to the fact that the corporate news networks have their own agendas to push and will lie and distort in an attempt to control peoples views. It becomes obvious when some of the most important issues on the planet are nowhere to be found on television, but can be found on independent news sites all over the web. None of the television news networks report what the people actually care about. They report what they care about, and sadly many naive people then believe thats what they should be concerned about. When you see CNN, Foxnews, and NBC taking jabs at one another it becomes increasingly obvious that these companies care only about their own bottom line just like the big banks and oil companies. We the people need to speak up like this and take the power away from the giant corporations that control the way we think. Citizens of the U.S. have been tricked into handing their country over to a handful of very wealthy folks, and the main platform for this scam has been television news. The internet takes some criticism for some of its elements being too easily accesible, but that indeed may be what saves us from this conspiricy, because the internet has blown the cover of wall street fatcats, politicians, CEO’s, ect. Not to say the internet is perfect, you can find more misinformation there than anywhere else, but some of the truthfullness you’ll find on the web cannot be found anywhere else. We need to not only use the computer to get our news, but also use it to make ourselves heard, never before has it been easier to get your opinions to the rest of the world. Communication of thoughts and opinions is precisely what we need to be doing. There is no doubt that people will always disagree on many things, but if we could all just figure out what our common ground is and decide how to move forward with it, that alone would change the world dramatically for the good.

I think the entire planet is less divided than the U.S. population. If we must leave the right wing white christians in the dust in order to make progress, so be it.

ponder
Current mood: mellow
Category: Writing and Poetry
The environment around me makes me ponder many things. Things of importance, things of novelty, things of sight and what they bring. For each conclusion theres analysis of what there should, but peoples aspirations are often not driven by good. Undeniabley they quiver when presented truths, and wonder why they don’t deliver when the moment of truth arrives. Comprehension isn’t possible without first giving look, but its impossible for most not to be born blind. Against the current we must go, until the current is NO MO. A new idea of all is right where we’ll arrive.

Don’t let stress muck yo ass up, shorten yo life, or wrinkle yo face. Lower yo sperm, make ya gain weight, make you lose hair or make it turn gray. Eventually its gonna take its toll but let it come with age not with rage, with hurt not with dirt, from out not in. Control that tiger and put on a grin. Stress in life is sometimes manufactured for ya. So evade the tyrade and people might ignore ya, but that ignorance bliss thing, kinda hard to argue, so if your gonna go that route at least you know you once knew..

war with babylon
Category: Life
I’ve decided I’m going to make another rather abrupt change to the way I live. Last new year I stopped eating animal products and ten months later i’ve honestly never felt better. This new year I’m going to take the crusade even further by attempting to regulate my corporate intake. My goal is to make my environmental impact nearly as low as humanly possible by 2012(not because I think something catastrophic is going to happen, although I won’t rule it out. I think to completely rule that out means you’ve paid absolutely no attention to the hype surrounding that year, at least never given it serious consideration, but since the mayans viewed that date as a time of great change I want to be a completely changed person by that year..) Taking the steps neccessary to cut corporations out of my life won’t be all that simple, but since this is a real moral issue to me I’m positive I can achieve my goals. I was very skeptical at first about becoming a vegan, not just because I liked to eat meat & dairy, but because I wasn’t sure if I could do it. It was an idea that I’d never pondered seriously until then, I wasn’t sure how my body would react(mostly because of things i’d heard from people about veganism that ended up being totally false), but now that its done I have that feeling like I could do just about anything. It amazed me how easy it was, the positive mental and physical aspects are valuable, and perhaps best of all it was a serious learning experience for me. Changing my diet in such a way forced me to learn about the nutritional needs of humans, and I now have a much more conscious view of what food is. I hope to learn just as much when I stop giving corporate fatcats my money. I’m sure it will be a different set of lessons being learned, I assume much is to be learned about surviving in a less developed society(which is something that may come in handy when the bottom falls out on this shaky capitalist economy). I don’t intend to do it all at once, on january 1st I’m not going to be able to say I don’t support any massive corporations. Even when you do your shopping differently(at mom & pop shops, the internet, ect. ) corporations still have hefty influence & their products are sold nearly everywhere. Therefore it will be a slow change, but most meaningful changes are over time. I have a basic idea of how I’m going to go about it & I have a shortlist of the places I intend to avoid from the get go. The first mark on my list is Wal-Mart and anything that closely resembles it, for me this includes all their competitors & all the main grocery store chains such as publix, winn dixie, food lion, ect. . Fast food is next on the list, obviously I don’t eat much of this shit anyway due to my diet and all, but I have been known to throw down some bean & rice burritos from taco bell & veggie subs from subway, this will be no more. There are also boatloads of other not so fast resteraunt chains that fall into my corporate avoidance project, but like i said I don’t suspect this will be too hard seeing as I can’t eat most of whats on most resteraunt menus anyway. Nearly all popular clothing chains will be part of my boycott, this I expect to be a challenge, not because I can’t find other sources to buy my clothes(eco-friendly clothes at that), but because my closet is currently filled with designer clothes, you can find average clothes much cheaper than eco-friendly clothes, and because clothing is so copious its flat out hard to avoid. my T.V. will be mostly shut off(I may decide not to even own one), the computer will be on a must use basis, and many more vegetables will be grown by Jenna & I. This is a serious undertaking. I know for a fact that its a mission impossible at this point. There really is no way to live a semi-regular life in this country without giving in to some corporate luxuries. Like gas for instance, unfortunately I’m not anywhere near a position that I could officially stop using automobiles, therefore I will still have to give in to some of the worst, richest, most destructive corporations there are(for now, not forever). Anyway its sure to be a work in progress for quite some time. I don’t even have it out for all of the corporate world, there are some corporations that are responsible & do good things with their money, but they are outnumbered. I always hear it said that if people want things to change they have to demand it. I disagree I think they have to act. Act based on what you believe. Take a few minutes when your in the checkout line to think about the people your supporting & I don’t mean the low level workers, think about what that company stands for, and even do some extra research to find out what they do with all their money. The actions that I’m preparing myself to take are intended to do more than just make a point, they are intended to make an example & to make sure that I am no longer a slave that supports the richest assholes on the planet. They’ll be fine, bring your business elsewhere.

God aint great, beers alright, rednecks are crazy
Current mood: restless
Category: Friends
Okay let me start this off by stating that I try not to pass judgement on people based on how they look, honestly I try not to even form much of an opinion after the first time I meet somebody. We all have bad days & I think people deserve second chances in most cases, but there is just one stereotype of this culture that I just can’t seem to see eye to eye with, and that’d be the redneck. If I see someone that is in wranglers with a camo hat or jacket chances are about 99% that I won’t get along with them. Not to say there aren’t some rogue rednecks, even some that I probably wouldn’t mind hanging around, but they are far and few between. Maybe its the alcoholism, the dip, the complete disregard of environmental issues, the hunting, the ego, the country music, all of the above. I think its kinda silly to embrace any of these things, but to be all about all of them makes you the hatebreed white american redneck whose ignorance I can hardly tolerate. I’m someone that preaches tolerance like the pope preaches against sex, yet these folks can get on my nerves like no other. I know that ignorance is bliss because I can see it in their faces, its a form of happiness my mind won’t even try to duplicate. I’m just baffled by their inability to look beyond the realm of how/where they were brought up. Other peoples opinions go in one ear and out the other. We will never achieve world peace as long as there are rednecks on this planet(I believe that statement to be true). Whatever I’m not gonna sit around and be a hater all day, i’m just glad the good ol boys are on the decline. We have a black president, christianity is not the all powerful political force in America that it used to be & will most likely continue to decline, science is on the come up, and we’re closer than ever to seeing marijuana legalization in the states, so I guess I can’t bitch to much. As of right now my sides winning.

something phillysophycalol
Current mood: validated
The drunk talks endlessly, but has nothing valuable to hear. One that avoids controversy may find happiness, but should not lead others in times of turmoil. Accepting other peoples ideas is great, but further inspection is needed before we consider them right. Thinking you know without previous thinking is the way of this world and it brings consequence. Hobbies are great, false hope is bad. Work with reality not to create fantasy, but to create reality that you can accept. If your worried about what people think, just think yourself about how silly they are. Many think their perspective is unique. What would really be unique is if they were correct. Next time you think your so correct and unique, remember your not and just show pham some love..

Halloween thoughts
Current mood: indescribable
Category: Writing and Poetry
October 31st, awake all night. People dress up, the most are too old, they dress like children. The young are too young to understand or accurately appreciate. I use it as an exuse to dress like myself. Bum ass hippy toker, but then again here I am in this damn uniform. Why must we don the attire of those who are higher. The lowest in life sport labels like they are tattoos. 7-11, Mcdonalds, or clothing brands that are simply the name of a rich person. Our young are transported from house to house, neiborhood to neiborhood. Expectations are that people will give children candy, candy thats tightly rapped and sealed, processed and sent here by corporations that live off of holidays like such. Anything homemade is unnacceptable, of course, because we cannot trust our neibors. We fear them, and so rightly we should, their homes are filled with sharp objects and brightly colored fabrics. They’re practially monsters. Instead we trust companies. Aren’t these holidays supposed to be about community? Valentines day, halloween, and easter all belong to the candy companies. Everything is so imperial. Love turned to money, community turned to corporate.

end

Why do the worst things always happen to the poorest most defenseless people?

I’m horrified as I’ve learned about the earthquake in Haiti. Its not enough that those people have to live in such a country, but now there country is in complete ruins & hundreds of thousands of their people, friends, family, neibors are all gone. I hope people will take this event seriously. This should be a lesson to each and every one of us that disaster can strike anywhere and we should never take our luxurious existence for granted..

speciesism & the current holocaust

Vegetarianism and Climate Change

The report from Worldwatch Institute shows that livestock raising is responsible for at least 51 percent of global warming.*
A Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency report showed that global shift to vegan diet could cut climate change mitigation costs by 80% *
According to the UN report “Livestock’s Long Shadow,” livestock production is the greatest contributor to global warming.*

Meat-based diets require 10-20 times as much land as plant-based diets – nearly half of the world’s grains & soybeans are fed to animals.

Proportion of GHG emissions from different parts of livestock production Livestock production emissions: 18%
Global Transportation emissions: 13.5%
18% of all greenhouse-gas emissions from human activities, including:
9% of CO2
37% of CH4(methane) – 23 times the Global Warming Potential of CO2 over 100 years, 72 times over 20 years
65% of N2O (nitrous oxide) -296 times the Global Warming Potential of CO2 over 100 years, 275 over 20 years
Source: FAO, 2006 (1)

Producing 1kg beef:
Leads to the emission of greenhouse gases with a warming potential equivalent to 36.4 kg of CO2 .

Releases fertilising compounds equivalent to 340 g. of sulphur dioxide and 59 g. of phosphate.

Consumes 169 megajoules of energy .

1 kg of beef is responsible for the equivalent of the amount of CO2 emitted by the average European car every 250 km, and burns enough energy to light a 100-watt bulb for 20 days.

Over two-thirds of the energy goes towards producing and transporting the animals’ feed.
SOME DISEASES RELATED TO MEAT CONSUMPTION / PRODUCTION:

Swine flu
Blue tongue disease
E. coli
Salmonella

Millions of people are newly diagnosed with other meat-related cancers every year.
DIABETES

246 million people are affected worldwide
An estimated US$174 billion spent each year on treatment.
OBESITY

Worldwide 1.6 billion adults are overweight with 400 million more who are obese

A solution for world hunger:
Free up 3,433 billion hectares of land
Free up 760 million tons of grain every year (half the world’s grain supply)
Consumes 1/3 less fossil fuels of those used for meat production.
Reduces pollution from untreated animal waste
Maintains cleaner air
Saves 4.5 tons of emissions per US household per year
Stop 80% of global warming
PLUS MORE…

So theres your science.. I always get funny looks from people when I try to explain that I’m not just a vegan because I feel badly for the animals I do it for the environment as well.
Our species is going to drown itself in bad karma. Speciesism is the favoring of any species over another. Most humans are speciesists & almost none of them are aware of it. Human beings that eat meat are no better to the animals than the nazi’s were to the jews. People may not want to know what happens inside slaughterhouses but anyone who participates in this holocaust doesn’t deserve to be shielded from this information.
All creatures on this planet are just trying to survive. Creatures that cannot speak for themselves if anything should be protected by inalienable rights even more than us. The way we as a species treat all other earthlings is disgusting, disturbing, and almost unnaddressed in mainstream humanity.
Due to increased costs at animal shelters many strays are being put in gas chambers instead of standard pain free shots. In slaughterhouses over 6 billion animals a year are killed very brutally in America alone. All animals that are eaten are branded and dehorned with plyers(with no painkillers) , Pigs tails, ears & teeth are all cut off with no painkillers. Pigs are even drowned in boiling water to remove bristle.
Humans consume as much chicken in one day now as we did in a whole year in 1930. Millions of chickens are killed everyday. Cannabalism occurs in every slaughterhouse. Farmers have even been seen jumping on chickens to kill them. Statistics like this may seem staggering but they are catastrophic and truly sad when you actually give your time and conscience thought to them. Animals suffer & i mean suffer worse than any human can imagine, all just to please selfish people who never have to witness the pain. So many people like to think they are morally superior to others & that humans do this business in a humane way. Well I’m not even sure what the word humane means anymore & if you’ve never seen for yourself what happens inside a slaughterhouse then I don’t think its appropriate to talk about morality & thats especially true for  the so-called prolife christian folks who traditionally eat meat, i dare you to watch a documentary about the meat industry and not question your faith. There is just no way anyone with emotions and feelings could be in the know about this and proudly say “yea i support the meat industry”. For me its much less wrong if you know the way business is done and are evil enough to continue supporting it than it is to just not pay attention like most people.

Stop supporting wal-mart PLEASE

My new years resolution for 2010 is to stop supporting wal-mart & many other large corporations. There are plenty of giant chains that ignore human rights, the environment, and morality but wal-mart is the largest of them and has a business model that many other companies are now trying to duplicate. I urge any human to get involved in a boycott whether your American, Chinese, indian, ect.. Wal-mart is unfair to everyone, replaces good wage jobs at local companies with minimum wage & bad benefits. Wal-mart also knocks property value off of other businesses. Walmarts profits are in the billions annually yet they pay their employees unfair wages and even promote the use of welfare and other government programs, they have even been accused of using these government assistance programs as they’re benefit package. In California alone wal-mart cost taxpayers $84 million dollars by not providing adequate healthcare for their employees. Wal-mart is the most actively and aggressively anti-union corporation. If union activity is suspected at a certain wal-mart location they send in the corporate executives in private jets to actually take control of the store & fire anyone they think is conspiring. Wal-mart training videos have been known to be full of anti-union propaganda, and they have even been able to use unions to turn employees against one another by freezing raises for all employees when any union activity is taking place. Wal-mart has spent up to $7,000 in some locations for camera packages, $30,000 for undercover spyvans, and $100,000 for anti-union hotlines all to keep unions out of their stores & even more out of their employees minds. When employees ask their higher-ups for advice or help, some have been told to use their tax dollars & even given a list of government programs. If employees begin to lobby for a union then wal-mart execs take over that location and weed out anyone troublesome. They seem to be on a mission to destroy unions altogether. In Alabamba over 3800 children of wal-mart employees are currently on medicaid. In Florida that number is over 12,000. Wal-mart employees that have unions in some parts of Europe ore promised 36 vacation days a year & competitive benefits. Many previous wal-mart managers have said they were told by regional managers to manipulate peoples work hours so they don’t get overtime by putting any extra hours toward the next week. In one particular case wal-mart settled out of court for $50 million dollars in overtime that was robbed from employees. Multiple lawsuits are currently underway. Managers are under constant pressure to cut expenses & have even been known to hire illegal immigrants and make them work overtime unpaid. Under our current tax system wal-mart recieves massive subsidies from taxpayers to help them finance building new stores, while at the same time they are putting those very taxpayers out of work by forcing local businesses to shut down. Wal-mart annually gets over 1 billion dollars in taxpayer money. Therefore you could argue that wal-mart is a literal cause for the lack of fireman/police/schools,ect. Sadly there are even 26 million square feet of empty walmarts just in the United States. They have also been fined multiple times in multiple states for enviromental violations including dumping hazardous chemicals into local rivers and lakes. In 2004 walmart was fined $3.1 million for clean water violations in multiple states. Thats not even the worst of it. In Chinese walmart factories people work all day for about $3. Toys that cost as little as 18 cents to assemble in China sell for nearly $15 dollars in the U.S.. In Bangledesh women work 14 hours a day, 7 days a week at 13 to 17 cents an hour and are even beaten by supervisors at walmart factories. Now you don’t have to be of my political persuasion to be upset by these numbers. Walmarts CEO made $27.2 million dollars in 2005. The average walmart sales employee made about $13,800. You can argue trickle down economics all you want but the fact is its not fair. Five members of the Walton family together are worth over 100 billion dollars. Just 10 billion of that could cover every walmart employees healthcare & make sure they get fair wages, but instead it goes toward things like an underground bunker for the family in case of a cataclysmic event such as a nuclear attack. Walmart has a fund set up to help their employees in case of an emergency. This fund is strictly donations. Walmart employees donated millions of dollars toward this fund themselves & the waltons gave a measly $6,000. The waltons recieved a federal taxcut of $91,500 an hour in 2004. They have given less than 1% of their earnings to charity, whereas Bill Gates has given over 50%. Oh but I must not forget to mention that they had enough to spare for some $3.2 million in political contributions in 2004. I beg the rest of the world to wake up to these atrocities. The Walton family is a success, they no longer need our support & continuing to give it to them will continue harming the enviromnent, the economy, and our freedom. When you only go to one store for everything you need, every other store begins to go out of business, and the more we give into these corporations the more control they have over us as a whole. Eventually if we continue down this path we’ll all be living in a giant ant colony in the shape of a W with no rights or power to change it back. Just remember that you get things so cheaply at walmart because chinese,indonesian,indian,ect. people work day and night for almost nothing in unfair and unsafe conditions. This company takes the easy way out in every situation they can, they have many people believing that they are there to help, but all they seem to do is grow, make more money, and give less of it. If for nothing else, you should stop shopping at walmart because they don’t care about you, the most precious resource they have, their customers. It seems that once you leave the store after spending your money they couldn’t care less what happens to you. 80% of crimes at walmarts (many of which are robberies, rapes, and even murders) take place in the parking lot. This is a statistic walmart is well aware of, yet they have only four cameras in most parking lots(mostly concerned with stopping union activity)and 200+ cameras inside and security. Even after finding that employees in golf carts patrolling the parking lots helped drop the crime rate to near zero, they still are yet to have regular parking lot security for a miniscule cost of probably 10 dollars an hour at their stores. So I ask you again.. how can anyone support a corporation that steals our taxmoney, cripples local schools, pollutes our waters, puts our locals out of business, treats workers unfairly, and provides us with lower quality goods then we could make ourselves? Well thats America… corporations flex their muscles and are proving to be too much even for our government to stop.. I’ve heard it said that “you can save a little money at walmart, but the quality of your product goes down, and then once walmarts in & the locals close shop you cannot get the quality back. Please my friends make the descision that a slight convenience is not worth all this..

the united states problem with prosperity..

The United States & all other countries connected to the global economy seem to be on a quest for false prosperity. The federal reserve continues to print bills faster than most can comprehend, these bills are expected to help us solve all of our problems, but indeed seem to be the root cause of them. Our governments are expected to make the best descisions for the citizens within them, but are instead promoting the same activities that got us into this mess in the first place, the exact same philosophies with a new stylish look. Those who have benefited the most from the current economical structure are intent on milking the situation as long as possible & they use the power of their money to maintain this capatalistic status quo of excess and waste. Its easy to persuade people to continue living in this game of corporate shoots and ladders, all they have to do is lure people in with money, especially in a world in which we don’t grow or hunt our own food. Most people are not even mentally equipped to grow vegetable gardens or emotionally equipped enough to hunt their own food. The survival methods of past humans seem to have been forgotten or have become a simple footnote as to how we became the way we are. Its not as if we are all being tricked, we are being forced to live a certain way whether we agree with it or not. Banks are a great example. When money is the most important part of survival people need a safe place to keep theirs. Banks hold on to our money for us, but in the meantime they use it to give people loans & to cover expenses. This pyramid banking scheme creates a scary fact, the fact that there is nowhere near enough money to cover an event in which everyone withdrawls their money at once. Still people trust these institutions without much question to protect their funds. The fact that people are afraid to hold on to their money for fears of losing it and their life should alone convince us that money is evil. There really is no way to keep money safe other than in your home or in a bank & so we are forced to use banks. The most disgusting part is that when these banks get too excessive or make mistakes and lose our money the federal government gives them more of our money in the form of taxes. Then you have massive corporations such as retail chains & grocery stores who use their billions of dollars to set up stores everywhere and make sure they have the cheapest prices around, effectively running small merchants across the world out of business & creating more lower-middle class workers while the corporations stacks up billions in profits (in the case of food, I urge everyone to support local farmers & eat organic). I don’t neccessarily think its some kind of grand conspiriacy, or at least not a very organized one. I actually think its just the result of the type of economical ideas we have accepted. All forms of government that rely on money result in vastly more poor than rich just to slightly different degrees whether they be liberal/socialist, conservative/freemarket, communist, ect. It seems to be human nature at this point to accumulate as much money as possible & I know its human nature to protect it once you have it. I guess in the type of world we’ve created it is only human nature to step on feet of others. When will all this change? When will human consciousness as a whole reach the point that we realize we’ve made mistakes & need to make changes? I’ve made many important and drastic changes in my life that are meant to help myself, the planet, and everything on it & I know many others who have done so too, but at the same time there seems to be nearly as many united against any sort of change to their fairy tale existence. These people will deny facts, become belligerant, lie, and literally become extreme in an effort to stop or curb social change. Its much easier to unite around negative things than positive. There is always going to be those stuck in the past remaining blissfully ignorant. It is our challenge to rise up against the power structure and stand up against things we don’t agree with. Those who fear positive social change need to realize that most of this change needs to be within our minds & not through the sciences and technologies that helped lead us to where we are. Now that humanity has such control over this planet, so much knowledge about our surroundings, and such infinite technological potential I believe we should revert to something more simple. I mean whats wrong with just knowing that we could, just knowing whats possible, instead of flexing the full capacity of our technology. I’ve come to the point where I think the best & most effective method of change would be for people to quit their jobs, begin growing food, boycott large corporations, and really try to make this work on a community level first. The day that happens will be the day we realize life can be fun again. Life doesn’t have to be about work and money. As a whole we could make the descision to stop the stresses and bring back the enjoyable side of life again. Just think of that, enjoyment coming from non-material means. At least then the only stress in life would be survival and food, the stuff all other living things are concerned with. Our species has become one big egomaniac. If we could drop our superior attitudes & stop trying to dominate the planet down to every plant I think we’d find ourselves in a much better world.

how can you be prolife if you eat dead meat?

The prolife argument is a hyprocritical argument. How is it that you can call yourself prolife yet you support the mass slaughter of animals. The way animals that people eat are treated in mass production is equivelant to the holocaust if you ask me, the only difference is that people have the ability to speak up. I’ve never been able to relate to that side of the debate anyway, because I’ve never thought any group of people should be allowed to make everyone elses personal descisions. The modern conservative view would make abortions illegal across the board, so that nobody in any circumstances would have the ability to have one. To me the major decider in the debate is the fact that different people are in different situations with different circumstances & what works for one person may not be the answer for another, but any individual should be able to decide for themselves. The prolife argument would argue that the babies should have rights because they don’t have the ability to speak for themselves, but in that case wouldn’t it be the same for animals and trees being cut down. Thats why in my view these people are not prolife at all, they are simply pro-human or pro-human fetus. What is it that makes us so sacred, when humans are the cause of pain and suffering for nearly all lower creatures I find it kinda hard to be sympathetic to the anti-abortion argument. Nearly all prolife people eat meat, and lots of them support the death penalty. So their saying that its ok to kill millions of defensless animals & plants, and to destroy the oceans, but its not okay to prevent a baby from being born (into a bad situation at that). Maybe if I actually met a prolife person that was pro-all life I could take them more seriously, but the fact is that their views are simply driven by religion & us sane folks decided a long time ago that we don’t want religion controlling our lives.
