I'm not really in the mood for this shit,
I don't think I care much for humans anymore,
Why do I fucking bother?
I went to a reading last night,
Richard Hell, what a Voidoid,
He talked about the "seedyness of portland,
How you could almost smell the drugs and decay in the air,
I loved it.
He then read a passage from his book,... Read More
Your description reminds me of a scene in Northampton, the "Berkley" of this area; I saw a bunch of college kids pan-handling outside of a bagel shop once. I was sickened to see they were clothed in Abercrombie & Fitch or some other capitalist-insanity clothing brand that costs more than my rent. I thought, these kids will never know what it's like to be alive, or to struggle to stay alive. Begging was a pastime to do between shopping excursions and frat parties. It made me sad.
Hopefully you're not done with your WRITING... which reminds me: I'm still waiting for that ending! Send it as a full piece, so I can read the beginning again.
The past few mornings I have awoken to a brightly moonlit bedroom. I lay in bed looking out the window and gaze at the moon, and all is well with my world. Except that I am alone. I hate sleeping alone, but the girl always sleeps on the couch when she doesn't feel well, and she has been sick for the past 4 days or... Read More
The government failed to respond adequately to Hurricane Katrina, Bush said Thursday night from storm-damaged New Orleans as he laid out plans for one of the largest reconstruction projects ever. The federal government's costs could reach $200 billion or beyond.
Don't worry, be happy.

Yes. I just saw a bit by a comedian that had the closing lines, "I don't blame President Bush for this mess. I blame the American people! Y'all knew he was a moron and you voted him in anyway! It's like blaming a blind guy for crashing your car when you're the one who gave him the damn keys!"
Damn conservative Heartland and Bible Belt; they f*&cked us up. Bush is just an idiot.
On this day in 1935 Anti-Semitic Nuremberg Laws are passed by Reichstag; Jews lose citizenship and civil rights.
Over the next ten years the Nazi annihilation of about 6 million Jews occures(two thirds of the pre-World War II European Jewish population), including 4,500,000 from Russia, Poland, and the Baltic; 750,000 from Hungary and Romania; 290,000 from Germany and Austria; 105,000 from The Netherlands; 90,000 from...

1971, 1,300 prisoners rebelled against their guards and took over the Attica Prison facility in Western New York State. They held forty guards hostage. They had a list of demands for better living conditions including showers, education and vocational training.
On Sept. 13, after seven days of negotiations between the prisoners and government authorities, the national guard and state police seized the prison, killing forty-three... Read More
Yeppers.
I just gave out a worksheet to my juniors on the racial ratios of prisoners sentenced to death in the United States. The graph shows that killers of WHITE victims are overwhelmingly sentenced to death moreso than killers of any other race. Regardless if you are a death penalty advocate or not, you have to agree the penalty is racially biased. Pretty f-ed up.
Beaches is still going as far as I know, I dont know if I'm going this week or not. It is too early to tell but I'll keep you posted. The rod run was a blast!

The sky was a clear, brilliant blue, the air was filled with the scents of
nature as the open carraige carried them further into the countryside.
The sound of the horses hooves echoed through the forest as they passed.
She could feel his eyes on her, quietly appraising the effect of the cool
breeze on... Read More
