SUM THEORIES AND SHIT
this is some shit I been thinking about these days, I just wrote this Myspace comment to Kyle H. Mabson, President of the New Weird America:
these are parts of an argument I had in this post I made in a community called LipstickParty (it's about my 4/20 LA River Music/Art Party which you totally missed out on:
me: "some people showed up by the time it was over, some couldn't get a ride, some were too stoned/drunk to leave wherever they were, others didn't know me or anyone else there (i left a lot of flyers at The Smell, Perhspace, galleries, coffee shops, boutiques) and decided to leave after ten or 15 minutes because the majority of people in LA are awkward and shy sticks in the mud (in my opinion judging from the amount of awesome dance shows I've been too where NO ONE BUT ME DANCED, pssh)..."
after some comments about a fox purse promotes the fur trade and how me wanting to celebrate Hitler's birthday is fucked up:
treesandsleep: "really. I'm so tired of people's "shocking humor" these days. Wow, SHOCKING MOVIES SHOCKING ART!!!!
my reply: "yeah. Fuck John Waters, Patti Smith, Harmony Korrine, (+Beavis and Butthead and various other 90s MTV cartoons), (+Damien Hurst and the Bodyworlds exhibit) spitting in public and smoking cigarettes around people, even outside. (this is sarcasm on the interweb)
but anyway, seeing as America's been under conservative rule for like 8 years now....i can't blame anyone for acting out. personally I feel people need to be shaken, not stirred...our economy is down the shithole, healthcare is fucking expensive, housing is exspensive. and besides being young, able, talented, and educated, i can't even find a job (besides the odd craigslist art gig/nude art modeling) and i've been looking for 6 MONTHS.
fuck. i'll probably just end up becoming a train hopping, hitchhiking squatter like half my friends in this country. and once I save up enough, I'm moving outta here before world war three breaks out. shitt.
PS: WW3 was predicted by a web bot that totally predicted shit like Hurricane Katrina. I bet you the republicans rig the voting machines (fuck, doesn't like Bush or someone own the company that makes them???) so Obama and like Mccain or whoever is ahead now are 50/50, but the reds win by one vote. Or Hilary Clinton will win and fuck shit up, I don't trust her. (My mom is really into political facts/conspiracies) also, history repeats itself. a new age is coming, perhaps like the 1960s or roaring twenties. I predicted this a long time ago, like in middleschool. Like how I started wearing colored tights, now american apparel sells them. Or how I thought homelessness would come into fashion in both fashion and lifestyle, and now trainhopping and hitch hiking and squatting/living cheap in bad neighborhoods and living off government ham (FOODSTAMPSYEAH) is way cool. I don't blame people for that, America is so behind, so many other countries have free/affordable healthcare and/or free higher education. so WTF? get with the program "land of the free" conformist uptight psychomedicated consumers. hahaha. i'm so punk rock. jk. though I still think Jello Biafra is AWESOME. real punk rockers don't dress in plaid and wear leather and studs and multicolored mohawks though.
BUT ANYWAY, fuck. okay okay, so 2009=WW3. and 2012=end of the world OR a worldwide change of consciousness ummmm....what else? oh yeah. I think people are becoming more "out there" due to the speed technology is advancing.
Like, in the Industrial Revolution...there were a group of artists and poets and writers and musicians and mathmeticans and philosophers, ETC that said "FUCK SOCIETY, LETS GO LIVE IN WOODS and make shit and think shit ourselves, BY HAND and live off the land.
that's my theory at least of current times...
anyway, can I be dubbed vice President of the New Weird America? also, get Party Steve or Rotten Milk or Will Leffler in the office. WE NEED A MUTHERFUCKING TREASURER.
also, despite that last comment, I love technology. The internet rules. It's what people in the 1960s were hoping for. An ever-expanding interconected web of knowledge, ideas and communication, all over the world. Like shared consciousness. I think I first internet existed on select college campuses in 1964. not sure. gotta read through my senior thesis from highschool again...
AND Chuck Closterman rules, I don't care what anyone says, they elitist bookworms if they talk shit, his writing is hilarious AND smart. I love shoplifting his books from Urban Outfitters. Sonic Youth sold out to U.O. too but I still love them. Free Kitten Rules. But that shit is overpriced, I could make any of those clothes myself in like, 5 minutes, HAHA suckers.
ALSO, +people who wear/model/work for American Apparel are not cool, they look like clones, do too much coke and are generally unintellegent and boring people (even if they know about all the cool parties and can pose pretty for pictures by Mark the Cobrasnake/various other party photo websites). The other night that model Dora almost ditched me near downtown when I was drunk. Then I got picked up and me and Travis got some 40z and went into Perhspace while the girls sat in the car. We came out after a band and they dissapeared without a phone call or anything. They had gone home. We were stranded. Thankfully, Brendan woke up and picked me up and Travis has $$$ for a cab back to Echo Park. Pretty, popular, (rich) "cool" people usually make bad friends in my experience. I'm selfish sometimes too, we all are, especially in LA/New York, but hey, I'm an only child with some trauma, lies and other fucked up shit in my past. Yeah, yeah, we all got our problems, but experience makes you who you are today. Everyday is a learning experience, so I say live life fast and hard, before North Korea drops a A-bomb on our asses. APOCOLYSPSO 2012!
