The sad thing is, if an issue is laughed at and patronized by mainstream media, then it's up against it big-time. I read some journalist recently lecturing the anti-globalization lobby, saying, 'This is the way capitalism works, all capitalism is exploitation and to make it try and do something else, it's never gonna happen.' And it's like, yeah, but where does that leave us? This is somehow God's will? All this? It's God's will that we sit in traffic? It's God's will that millions of people are gonna die this year because of some outmoded economic policies? No, it's not! It's like some deranged sacrificial altar, the high priests of the global economy holding up these millions of children each year, like 'We wish to please you! Oh Gods of free trade!' It's like... give us all a fucking break! If there is a Devil at work, then he rests in institutions and not in individuals. Because the beauty of institutions is that any individual can abdicate responsibility. The assumption that we're all utterly powerless, that's the Devil at work.

We're at a time when we are being presented with undeniable changes in the global climate and fundamental issues that affect every single one of us, and it's the time we're listening to the most hokey shit on the radio and watching vacuous bullshit celebrities being vacuous bullshit celebrities and desperately trying to forget about everything. Which is fine, you know, but personally speaking, I can't do that.

Why do people live 'right beside' cemetaries? Don't they know that when the shambling hordes of the undead rise from their sealed concrete tombs, and claw their way through 4 feet of hardened earth, that their house is like the 7-11 of the underworld? Just curious...

My Aunt passed away today. I didn't cry... I'm not surprised by this, I've never cried at a funeral, but many of my family members insist that I do so. This perplexes me in the same way that they try to 'push' religion on me at times like these, as if it's the perfect time for the pitch. As if I would all of the sudden realize the whole 'mortality' thing on the spur of the moment. I have nothing against religion, it's just not for me, I've tried it, it doesn't work for me. Sorry. But I just think that I shouldn't be harrassed into christianity, simply because someone I love died. So, I'll miss her, and I'll be there for my uncle. And if you've actually read this, well, I don't have any kind of reward for you... But thanks for stopping by!

I've decided right here and now, that there will be absolutely NO way in hell, that I'll ever be tempted to eat hot pockets again... No matter how catchy their jingles are...

I cleaned my room three times today... I think I have a problem... I'm out of swiffer pads...

Right, so I have one of these now...

Yeah, that's about it.
