shouldn't couldn't wouldn't avoid ness blank stare space gaze human race a phase of human deficancy war bombs destruction evidence that we are all animals a fucking game of survivial of the fittest where we all loose because our shirt was tucked in a bit too tightly when we were little, us americans with a stick up our presidents ass... what the fuck...? I hate being part of a country that's seen overseas as that moron... it's unfair to judge me and everyone else I know who seem to all despise the man who represents us. If we all voted I bet America would be plenty different right now, except I didn't vote because I was too young for the presidential election and I have yet to register cuz i'm lazy and I live in a different state than the one I have residency but ya know what it's really ridiculous how one person can't change the world but one person times one person times one person can do a whole lot of good bad and then some... and there's an explosion of firecrackers, sirens screaming in the distance up and down the city streets, the thick murmurs of the el screeching off past the Fullerton el stop- I look out my window and see peace that will soon be interrupted-- hatred is in the air, I feel it poisioning my flesh as it paints itself thickly on to my pinkness... I want to run and pretend the world does not encompass hate more than love more than like more than okay so you're different so lets be different and appreciate that we're not the same... no -- the world is all about hate, deception, power, pain, agony, suffering and there are going to be hundreds of innocent victims on both sides- oh, hundreds if we're "lucky", thousands if we're not and... war is not the answer, but peace won't get us anywhere, it seems as if there is no answer and humans want conflict in their lifes... it's been 10 years since we've been in a war, it's about time to bring on the drama bring on the tears the mothers crying because their only son is now just a name on a carefully designed monument somewhere in DC... And why does it matter to-- why should a person even try to think for themselves when in all honesty sometimes you feel that animalistic nature in you and you don't think that peace will ever work, you want to survive and you know they don't give a fuck about you- they'd kill you in two seconds just because you're a white american (and a jew) if they didn't have to worry about the entire world turning on them... but now they're getting the world on their side.. and we're looking like the bad guy cuz we're gonna send over our troops and... WHAT THE FUCK IS WITH THE FREEDOM FRIES? I'm GONNA order my FRENCH fries and i'm going to EAT my FRENCH FRIES.. I Don't want any FREEDOM FUCKING FRIES. IS this freedom? After 9-11 I felt a sickening sort of patriotism I had never felt before... but now-- now I'm sad to say I'm an american. I'm sad to say I'm a HUMAN. What's wrong with everyone? Why are we all so blind to see that we're all the same, that religion is bullshit, that land is not worth killing for, and...
oh fuck it. We need drama. We need war. We need all this crap because it gives the artist something to paint about. to draw about or write about. It gives the newscasters something to talk about and the filmmakers something to create oscar winning movies on. A peaceful world would destroy art. Without ignorance... what a boring place we'd live in. They make those freedom fries so someone can go and write a song about how they love their french fries, french toast and long so much for a sweet french kiss...
who would have ever written a song about french toast before some stupid americans decide to go bonkers and change the name of all french-named food? -- Eh. Inspiration comes from human stupidity way too much for it's own good.
End rant.

Anyway, I don't think we need war to get people to write good music/make good art. The 60s were overrated anyways.
Anyway, the whole reason I read your journal is that I loved the comment you made about the set Bettina did. I really agree with you, the site needs more sets like that. So, so far I like everything I've read of yours... better watch out before I start liking you.
