So I wake up all dazed and confused...

I wake up all confused, and I lean over to the side of the bed and puke up water. Just water. I don't know why I puked. It's hard to type, I'm trembling very very hard. I decide to watch the movie Dazed and Confused and I have a bag of popcorn as I watch ( Read more... )

I'm beginning to question relationships in general, on a biological level. Sure, they work in a society, for the most part (or do divorce rates reflect otherwise?) but in nature, most animals do not stick together for very long. I think we all have a personal quest to seek our 'other half' when, in fact, there may not be one. There is (predominately female) need for comfort and for motherhood (where 'mother' simply represents one who nourishes, not necessarily one who gives birth), and a relationship, by default, can provide this. The relationship, or even the significant other, becomes so known and depended upon than the female can easily lose sight of how to depend on herself. Contingent upon her self-worth is the ability to keep the relationship going, her ability to nurture. This is why so many women do significantly less well after break-ups or bad relationships. The male need is probably to protect and to spread. Protect himself and protect his woman, and, if applicable, his family and his personal belongings. It is probably ( ... )

And yeah, fascism could come easily to a woman. Consider the concept of motherhood. Also, consider the concept of family. "We stick together because I am Mother and you are Child" as if neither individual counts as anything more. Do they even exist without these titles? Do they even care? "We stick together because we are a Family," where Family is simply a unit of people trapped together and forced to work together simply to continue being a unit of people called a Family. Less time spent supporting and nurturing each other, more time spent keeping the Family going, no matter what ( ... )

Yeah...but it always seems like male fascists always have grander schemes, it doesn't involve the family. They take their beliefs and try to convince their community. But it wouldn't be without the mother. Or the wife. She keeps him tied down, so he won't self destruct. It's a parasitic symbiotic relationship, wouldn't you say? Where it both hurts and helps both partners.

What I meant by the idea of Family is that it can be applied to any level. The community is, in a way, just an extended family. The ideal community works hard to take care of one another, keep the community going. Women are known to do very well at controlling communities. But I know what you mean.

And yes, I agree that it's a symbiotic relationship, but not necessarily parasitic. Symbiosis means they give and take from each other. Parasitic relationships only benefit one side, while taking from the other. But it's easy for a symbiotic couple to mutate into parasitic, or to even go back and forth between them.

"O T S S only the strong survive only the strong survive"
i love that scene. that whole movie makes you think. if you are in the right state of mind i guess. i have never, ever watched it stoned. and i have owned it for about 5 years. but if in the right mood it can definately make you wonder a lot of things. like the scene in which the girl sings about the aliens. and rory cochranes charactor goes on this long spiel about george washington and his harvest. it makes me think of how much simpler life was back then...

That's why I don't want to have kids...it would be so selfish of me to raise a child in tomorrow's world, seeing as how everything is going to be so fucked up. Things are so complicated now...we're moving forward a mile a second technologically, but we're sliding back culturally and morally. I mean, let us compare music...

How many chords are there on average in a Pink Floyd song...as compared to a song by Sum 41? As one said..everything has been said before, there's nothing left anymore. Things are going to be so shitty in the future.

Things were only simple in comparison.
People back then didn't think they had it so easy.
Nobody ever does. The grass is always greener, and so on and so forth, insert-cliche-here.
