Raise your hands to your mouth and scream. Scream the roof down!
Kids these days don't know what good music is. I've been thinking this because I just listened to some 4Kids anime music, then some Pioneer anime music. Such differences. I think companies already anticipate that children are drooling mindless bags of flesh even before the mind-turning begins.
The fact that Pavarotti has retired saddens me. But he is old, so he earns the retirement. I think it is human effort that makes music good. A real human voice or by instruments not being filtered through a synthesizer. That must be why choir and opera always gets to me. ^_^
If anybody knows of any Space Metal bands please tell me. So far Hawkwind and Jefferson Airplane are the only ones I know of. I'm kind of on a Space Metal kick, you see.
It's christmas eve! *Bounces* :D I've got six gifts under the christmas tree so far. I look forward to reporting to you what I have been given.
I've been a good girl this year. Santa's gonna give me good stuff. Even though I'm FAR too old for it, I always leave a cookie and a glass of milk out for him before I go to bed. I know dad steals it as soon as I go to bed, but I feel more connected to the Christmasses of the past if I keep on doing this.
This year I'm going to be doing Tarot readings for my friends on New Years eve, free of charge. (I usually charge thirty bucks when I use my Crowley deck X3)
I have both an Aleister Crowley and an Arthur Waite deck. I find it funny, cause the two creators of the decks hated each other. I bet the cards come to life at night and fight each other to the death.
What I really would like as a gift is the book called 'The Equinox'. But it's a HUGE book (2000 pages), and when its hardbound it costs about four hundred dollars. O_O But I still want to read it. I know Crowley was a raving doped-up madman, but I entertain his theories for the fact that he sacrificed himself so much to even come to those conclusion. He was a misogynistic racist, but he was a viciously smart misogynistic racist.
In slight relation to this, I believe that everybody has a degree of evil within them. Not evil as just evil, but an evil side, an evil persona. I can participate in gruesome acts by just allowing the evil persona to dominate.
For example, the other day I was at Ed's farm and he asked me to behead a large chicken. Of course I felt awful to lop off its head, but I did it because I just gave in to the fact that it gave me sick pleasure to do it. After that it was just terribly easy to do a balance-shift and go back to theulsion-filled me that I started with. I hope this isn't a sympton of bi-polarity.
And then I got to wonder if I could do the same thing with a human being. The other part of me argues that a human is just a larger chicken that spurtsmore. :S
But I think I know how people can murder and still stay sane. They can attach the bad reactions to a small part of their mind and bury it, deep and quietly inside the backs of their psyche. And so can I.
I get the feeling that this world we're in is on the verge of something big and terrifying, something evil in itself. When that time comes it'll behoove people to understand the baser parts of themselves and use it to survive. I'm probably going to be one of the ones who will fall by the wayside during that time, I guess I can accept the fact that if survival of the fittest rings true, then I'm deader than dead. Maybe it won't have to be that way.
I think I could kill. If the necessity came up, I think I could. If it became a regular thing, then I'd probably take pleasure in it as well.
I scare myself sometimes. ^_^;
