"In poor countries in Latin America, the dominant culture functions as a dominated culture, because the class that produces it is dominated from afar - a copycat, impotent bourgeoise of managers, whose popularity doesn't reach beyond its demogogy. But at the same time that the dominant culture distributes knowledge - or rather, distributes ( Read more... )

when the prophets make liars out of philosophers, who will you trust? the free-thinkers or the insightful.

What would it be like if this was real, now? When will it be real again? I miss you, Callie.

Hey wow did that die. AF ( Read more... )

I think it's kind of funny how promiscuosity is becoming less in the underground but still crazy in the mainstream media. A million tv shows and songs making nothing of feeling-less sex, but the straightedge movement rapidly infiltrating hardcore and other examples, too. Senses Fail: '... you're addicted to this drug of lust...' and Give Up The ( Read more... )

I'm excited for Underoath in a few days. I'm also excited for the election coming up soon, too. I miss everyone. And when I say everyone, I mean a whole six people. Yeah, I'm that cool. It's too bad some people in life are sincerely terrible people. Oh well. Anyway, I miss Callie and I want to go to N.C. this Christmas to see her. I need a job, ( Read more... )

It was very contentedly lonely. It was cold. Sunset. It was raining downtown. That was cool to see. It was cool to see the river, too. I just love to see the sun shining on the rain ( Read more... )

So this is me checking to see how many people are still on this as were last June. That's when I gave up on it. Since June - not a lot. Princeton. That's in my real journals though. Just something about a girl and a wonderful month that I miss. I miss learning, too. I feel stupid now. School is easy. Yeah, anyway. This is for everyone that still is

Last night was so much fun. Falling Closer isn't my style but they were good at what they played. They're really nice guys, too. I hadn't heard Last Day To Live before, but I expected them to be emo-pop-punkish... kinda like I had heard Dayton was like. Well, seeing as that band has more than 8 others going into it, it's pretty crazy, and they blew ( Read more... )
