I have just embarrassed myself tremendously.

Go back 2 previous posts. I wish to amend /retract my entry. I misread what was said, and have ended up doing further damage to an already precarious friendship. If indeed, there was still one there to damage.:/

With all this Peta rigmarol on the streets this holiday, I have found myself galled by the force-feeding of propaganda. I don't condone animal cruelty, why would I? But when confronted by what I call militants,  my blood boils. I don't want to be bombarded by shit I already know from strangers who have not even considered that their facts are not as cut 'n' dry as they hold them to be. I am omnivorous, as is the vast majority of the world. Because we are evolved to be that way.

It's something i've thought about a lot recently. Maybe it's my Asperger's, but I see things in a somewhat different light to others. Causes and organisations for this and that remind me of cults. They prey on people's doubts and insecurities, and they twist them into something frightening, something that is, to me, ugly. And I think of a friend being caught by them, and I feel confilcted. It's their choice. Or is it?

I don't sleep well right now. And when I do manage some, it's in my clothes. Last time I did that, I was in depression.
