pride

the more you compassionately struggle to be truly aware about the horrible things happening all around you, and the more you actively work to spread that awareness in the hopes of making an impacting change, the more you can feel good value and a strong heaviness in your soul.

ignorance is not strength. we must pay attention. corporations are hiding seriously evil crimes from us. they are, clinically speaking, immoral psychopaths. they have no soul to save and no body to incarcerate. i want my loved ones to know what these psychopaths are doing, and to protect themselves from it.

in related news, i just learned that the Vice President's "rider" requires that when he walks into the room, the TV has to be on FOX News, or what i sometimes call 'asshole-America's favorite #1 channel of 24/7 deceptive propaganda, ignorant distraction & harmful brainwashing'

---

also, yesterday, the major TV news networks spent hours and hours and hours and hours covering three simultaneous terrorist threats in Oakland, Pittsburgh, and the White House, which in the end turned out to be absolutely nothing. just a 'delicious' taste of absolutely needless fear. so much for ACTUAL news happening around the world... sorry world, there's no money in your tragedies.

come on, 3 billion of us are in horrible poverty (that's about half of us) and half of those people are children... not to mention all the innocent women and children being violently maimed and murdered...and i won't even begin to describe the Hell-on-Earth situations this culture forces billions of animals to suffer miserably their entire lives through...

"hundreds of thousands of you have survived the relentless propaganda you've been subjected to...if you join the battle, not in your hundreds of thousands, but in your millions, you will be greeted joyously by the rest of the world, and you will see how beautiful it is to be gentle instead of brutal, safe instead of scared, befriended instead of isolated, loved instead of hated...yours is by no means a great nation, but you could be a great people. history is giving you the chance. cease the time." --Arundhati Roy

my advice is subscribe to The Alternative Press Review's email newsletter (www.altpr.org).
it's amazing to read and maybe even better than their website itself.

---

see what you think about the real world, the one beyond what corporations focus us on.
we must resist what is happening if we can in any way, shape, or form. the best way is to learn and teach.

but don't forget to laugh and have fun, like (as you know if you know me) i always do.
live 4 peace & love, my ninja!

imagining bliss

this morning i experienced the complex emotion of uncontrollable overjoyed laughter mixed with sadness. i had been dreaming for what seemed a very long time about living a day in the life of being in a seriously fun, successful & sexy relationship with two ideal girlfriends in the likenesses of britney spears and christina aguilera. until you've wrestled around making out with the two of them fighting playfully over you on camera for the polygamous entertainment and education of millions of wrongfully-cultured people, i might have to say it's time to start plotting to make your wildest dreams come true, if only so that you might have some 'wildest' dreams similar to mine. yeah, wow.

real time with bill maher

ladies and gentlemen, i just about died laughing again tonight.

on the HBO tv show "Real Time" at least two wonderful things i feel obligated to share were spoken by the host, Bill Maher.

first, he brought up the subject of George Bush's argument that we didn't expect terrorists to hijack and fly airplanes into the World Trade Center, that our military wasn't ready for such a possibility -- the way they put it was 'thought the oceans would keep us safe.' on this topic, Bill essentially said "bullshit. even the stupidest Americans DEFINITELY knew that the terrorists had figured out BOATS and FLYING MACHINES." (that's paraphrasing)

...i wish more people with access to mass media would stand up and say this, as it blatantly & obviously illustrates the government & military's secretive involvement in what happened to this country back in 2001.

later, he talked about Anna Nicole Smith and her recently becoming a widow and having to fight her 89-year-old husband's son for inheritance at the U.S. Supreme Court. about this, three great things were said:
- The Republicans are repealing the Estate Tax (a.k.a. the Death Tax). I don't understand the Republicans on this. They claim to be for low taxes, but they tax people so much during times in life when they really badly need the money! If they're all about low taxes, shouldn't they be fighting to tax people at times when they DON'T need the money? And then, isn't the Estate Tax is the best time to tax people? You know, because of the fact they don't need the money... due to the fact that they're dead?
- The Republicans, who are all about hard-working, should support Anna here 100%. That guy's son is fighting her for his money in the Supreme Court, but he just sat around and waited for him to die, while she worked HARD for it. She took initiative. It's like Fear Factor, if you look like Anna, and you can have sex with an 89 year old man without vomiting, you deserve the prize money. Every night she slaved away on that man's tiny shriveled penis until little spurts of air came out...
- If you're a rich elderly oil tycoon, there's only two ways you wanna go out in life, getting blown by Anna Nicole Smith, or getting shot in the face by Dick Cheney.

also mentionable is the fact that D.L. Hughley (comedian) was a guest of the show, and at one point said "If i hear one more motherfucking time about how George W. Bush is a man of faith, i'm going to have to kill myself." Cheers, D.L.

all this stuff i've written is paraphrased, as my memory to these things isn't quite word-for-word.

the academy awards

ladies and gentlemen, it's hard out here for a pimp

...

...by three 6 mafia just won BEST SONG at the oscars, right after performing it onstage, with an uncensored & extensively repeated chorus that included the line "it's hard out here for a pimp, whole lotta bitches talkin shit."

that was such a deliciously delightful metaphoric slap in the face to all families who practice overly anal-retentive religious lifestyles that it made me laugh very very loudly, just bursting at the seams with happiness. i could practically feel the laughter rumbling with me in all of you similar minds watching across the country & the world.
