See? The international community totally forgets about Burma (although the focus on Darfur is a positive thing, we can do both - multi-tasking is a-ok) and look WHAT THE FUCK happens.

How many of you have forgotten the situation on Burma already ( Read more... )

So, I'm here and it's been a few days since I wrote and I don't care. Fuck y'all. <3
Also - HALLO FATTYTAKI. I hope you are well. I am unable to MSN at work so I shall make an effort to not hate the computer at home and go on more.

I still need to get my Buddha costume in order. I'm basically planning to go as a Nepalese Medicine Buddha since he' ( Read more... )

Oh, look. Look what's still making front page news but is being shoved, more and more, out of the spotlight. Look what's missing fact-wise.

I think what pisses me off about the entire situation is this intro peice - One hundred shot dead outside a Burmese school. Activists burned alive at government crematoriums. A Buddhist monk floating face down ( Read more... )

It's 4:25 and I'm pretty much done everything I've want to and/or can justify doing (ha, rationilizing work is terrible!) so now I'm just sort of having talks with Cheryl about her girlfriend and the like and so on, but there's more.

I had to leave earlier (at around 6:40) since my father had to drop off some pickets at the painter's. Now, I have no problem with this.
