Absence

I will be absent for a while - my internet service has died.

When I can bring it back to life I will continue posting regularly. Sorry about this...

Commenting Policy

Granted, yes, I write this blog. I am an individual, and I am biased by my own desires. However, this absolutely does not give anyone the right to completely disregard netiquette and attack the individual. I'm not selling myself here, I'm not saying, "Hey, Hire Me" or anything of the like. I'm an information hunter-gatherer, and anything that is not strictly adding to the topic of discussion will be deleted without hesitation from this point on. Also, if you do not at least state a screen name in your anonymous postings, your comment will be deleted.

If you would like to speak with me regarding something personal, use mayobrains at gmail dot com to email me. Please note, spammers will be incessantly hunted down.

Question the topic not the writer. You know who you are and you know your actions have been far from mature. Grow up, grow some balls, and be accountable for your actions. Read up on comment etiquette, then we'll talk.

Much Awaited Update

I've been very sick in the last couple of weeks, although I am better now, updates will be slow here for a while. I need to catch up on a few house duties, but as inspiration strikes me I will continue to write.

In the meantime, I'd like to clarify a few things. Firstly, some if not most of the entries here are in prose, and I don't generally link to the related news stories because I feel that you should keep yourself updated enough to already know about these things. Everyone needs to know what's going on in the world right now, because in a very short span of time a very great number of things are going to change in the way we live.

Another item you might have noticed is how outwardly bombastic and generally disgusting some of these entries can be. This is our world today. This is what you are living in - you are living in a world of filth. You need to see it, and you need to understand that there is something you can do about it. Don't go wandering around in your daily routine like the imperialist zombie you've been taught to be - have an active part in your world. Do something to make it better. Question it, seek to find the one correct end-all answer. Empower yourself, because in the near future, your job will be very different. The time is now to find yourself, or find yourself lost in the American meltdown to come.

America will lose this war. Indeed, we already have.

Our nation as we knew it is crumbling from the inside out. CIA leaks, upscale indictments, scandals everywhere you look, lobbyists having all the say over the people - everything is falling to shambles. Riots ensue when Bush goes anywhere for a good reason. I'm not even calling him the President anymore because I feel, as do many others, that he made the ballots lie. This nation has become a dictatorship, the politicians have figured out a way to manipulate the system in such a way that the people who should have control no longer do, and there inlies the problem - we have a system.

Granted, since Somalia took down its government in 1991 it hasn't done much better either, but they will see how to work together soon enough. Venezuela has done quite well for itself, and for those of you who aren't capable of surviving the battle to come, I recommend you move there.

Another item I'd like to bring up - I wish reporters would stop slinging around the word Anarchy. Anarchy is not chaos, it is a large group of people working together for the same cause without a leader. They are each their own leader, bringing up ideas and acting upon them. For a few perfectly stable examples of Anarchy, look at anything Jim Henson produced. I still feel it was particularly misfortunate that he got that headache, but he left enough of a legacy for us to learn from.

Until next time, keep your eyes open, read all you can, and know your world.
