this world...
So, this morning while drinking my coffee, I decided to read/watch some of the links my friends have been posting. One was about a cage fighter who supposedly had some magic mushrooms and tore his friend's heart out (and tongue, and eyeball...) and the other was a video of a sermon given by a NC pastor that was just absolutely disgusting. And my response to that video is "I think we should take all the conservative religious right and put them behind a big electrified fence...." If you've seen the video you know which one I'm talking about.
Stuff like that does nothing to quell my anxiety about anything. I do not find it relaxing to find further fodder for my misanthropy. And there is plenty out there. If I were a less sane and reasonable person, there are people I would have lit on fire by now. Or, in a nod to roadnotes, put heads on pikes.
On a more positive note, we saw The Avengers last night, and that was fun. And I got to hang out with a friend I hadn't seen in a few weeks, also fun.
I'm worried about one of my friends, though, and one of the people that I work with, and unfortunately there's nothing I can do for that.
I have a long to do list for today, so I should go and take care of that. And I am making a vow to NOT click on any links which I am SURE are inflammatory and will piss me off. I will sign petitions but I do not need to hear any more examples of what utter bigoted intolerant idiots humans can be.....Which probably means I need to stop logging on to the internet altogether, stop watching tv or listening to the radio, stop leaving my house....Anyway. I will now go fix the things that I actually have control over and can fix.
Like pie.
