The amount of wine Ive consumed in the last week has far surpassed any amount I've consumed up to this point in my life. And it's all been perfect.   Living with Sara and Jamie. WHAT THE FUCK. Finally.  I love tearing Sara away from her sparton studies at 11pm to smoke a fatty and bitch about the trivialities of everything anyone lives for and the fact that the very least we can do is be fabulous while it all goes down. Present your booze and drugs or leave this fabulous house.

My parents came with their truck to pick up shit tons of furniture today. It all came from different places but all superbly fits together, like a glove.  It's a wee bit swank for my taste, but I can adapt. It's all too easy, you know. Having a gorgeous bathroom with a two seated shower, vaulted ceilings and cheap jewelry draped about... it's not half bad you know. Of course we're still doing our part to save the whales; No meat, rollies, fatty jays, recycling and minimal electricity.

It sucks living in a world where you're silly and "rebellious" for giving a shit what happens to the planet. If there's ANYTHING real out there... it's fucking nature. It was here long before you and -hopefully, though doubtfully- will be here long after. If you think that your actions daily, wasting resources, polluting the air, purchasing goods from the corporate devils of the world, supporting them, giving them reason to keep strong in their focus isn't COMPLETELY INTERCONNECTED with every other problem with this world, you're fucking ridiculous.

VOTING: and what?  so, some of you vote because you want to have a voice.

Some of you vote because it's better to try than not.

Many of you don't because you realize the world is already to hell in a hand-basket and you'd rather bitch over a bottle of wine than waste energy on voting when you're only ONE person.

Many don't care anymore, and realize their is no paper trail in the voting ballets. With digital voting scores, who's to say what you punch in is even recognized?

BUT FUCK ALL THAT. forget about it for a moment.

EVERY DOLLAR YOU SPEND IS A VOTE YOU MAKE.

You think, even if you vote it won't make a differnce.

Every time you [and I, unfortunately] purchase a pack of cigarettes we're feeding the company out to take our money and let us die with no remorse.
Every time we purchase gas we're doing the same.
Every time you shop at a big store and hate how they've monopolized everything, that's just one more person rooting them on and making it all possible.

I know sometimes it seems that being the person you should be is pointless, seeing that hardly anyone is these days anyway.

Well, I had an interesting conversation that hit a good point.

There are so many kids out there, floating from foster parent to foster parent in the name of a social security check for said guardian. Kids floating in and out of fucked up homes where they're raped or just not quite nurtured properly enough to be someone that isn't a waste of space or air.

People worry about what may come if they raised 6 kids.  They all worry they'll feel either neglected or just be too much trouble.
DOES ANYONE HAVE FAITH IN THEIR OWN HUMANITY. IN THEIR OWN CAPACITY TO LOVE OR NURTURE HOW ONE SHOULD BE. WE ARE ONLY AS POWERFUL AND BRILLIANT AS WE ALLOW.

All of those kids being tossed around like puppies from the dog-pound who may or may not be house trained. THEY'RE ALIVE AND THEY ARE THE NEXT GENERATION OF PEOPLE. LIVE A LIFE THAT MAKES YOU CONFIDENT IN YOUR ABILITY TO RAISE ANOTHER HUMAN WHO CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. GET OFF YOUR SELFISH PEDESTAL AND FORGET AND BULLSHIT FOR A SECOND.

Probably not possible because none of you realize the interconnectedness of EVERYTHING.  "this or that may be fucked up" but my actions won't affect anything.
