Old Facecrack Note from January 2010

The year 2010...a great time to start fresh.
I have been posting links to Peta as many of you have probably noticed. I realize that people feel uncomfortable about activism ect but I do urge you to watch this as it does affect your health and the health and welfare of animals across the world. I am not asking people to be vegetarians or vegans...I am asking people to KNOW where their food is coming from and hopefully after watching the videos they can make an educated decision about eating at places that knowingly purchase meat from suppliers that scald animals alive, use outdated and often unsuccessful forms of killing the animals and force them to live in spaces that are not big enough for them to move. It appalls me that we as a society would rather turn a blind eye, eat our hormone laden foods from animals that were pumped and plumped to the point of breaking their limbs then watch an informative albeit disturbing video on what we eat! we EAT each and every day...why is it that we do not seem to care what is happening to our food? Not to mention what all of these mass produced cost cutting methods do to our own health. Why is a cow producing TEN times the amount of milk that they should? how do you think that happens? how do you think those hormones affect our own health? I cannot possibly change my past and how I blindly purchased, consumed and have partaken in this industry I can however make the decision to purchase or not purchase. We as consumers have the most power in these situations. What we buy touches all facets of society, the effects of our purchases can be a positive or negative one. When we purchase food from stores, and restaurants that do not care how or why the meat is so cheap we are sending the message that it's okay, that we want no better for these animals. I listen to everyone's rants on here everyday regarding everything from religion to breastfeeding and though I may not agree with it...I DO read it. I read it because I am not always right, because another persons passion, idea or belief can in fact enlighten my own. I read it because I firmly believe that I am better off opening my mind to possibilities then closing it out of ignorance.
My personal plight of 2010 is to be an informed consumer, to make the changes I can make to impact the world in a more positive way. We are all consumers, and we all hold a great deal of power...why not use it for something good?

On Horrible Tragedies To Kittens...

Hello again. Nothing fun and fishy today. No, today I am going to shit on you. Today I attempt to ruin your life.

Does that sound fair?? What gives me the right anyway?? What did you do to deserve this??

Nothing. Nothing at all.

That's the point. You see, it seems to me that people believe in this fairness idea. They think that they should be given an equal share or chance. Why?? What for??

We all do it though. We all think if we have a shitty day, that tomorrow will be a better one. It will be, (unless it's not), but it's not going to be better to make up for the shitty one you had. The shitty one was just a shitty one, and tomorrow may simply not be a shitty one. There really is no difference in the days, only how you see them.

This reminds me of watching people at a cross walk. They sit and stare at a light that tells them it's safe to cross. But is it?? How does this light know anything? It's a fucking light. It's a signal that tells the cars to stop, and the people to cross, but what if someone doesn't listen to that light?? What if you walked out into that street and were hit by a car. Is it your fault? Is it the drivers fault?? Does it depend on the colour of the light at the time?

Know what I think? It's all of our faults. We have conditioned ourselves to trust these little things like they somehow have our best interest at heart. But here's the thing. They have no hearts. They are just things...like days...they don't care, they don't look out for us, they don't do a god damn thing.

As a group we get together and create these helpful little things like cross walks and traffic lights. We think they keep us safe, but they don't. We do, we keep ourselves safe by following the rules we have set for ourselves. But we don't know this anymore, we don't think about it like this. We think that someone else out there somehow knew what the best solution was, and put in in place. The result is that we avoid being responsible for ourselves.

How many times has someone walked out on a cross walk assuming the cars will stop, and when they don't, they yell at them that it's a cross walk?? Call them fuckers and shake their tiny little fists at them? Why didn't they look around and judge if it was safe or not? Why did they trust paint on a road and lights hanging in the sky to somehow keep them safe?? Is it really ok to be hit by a car, or to hit someone with a car, and it not be your fault? Shouldn't that be called retarded?? Shouldn't anyone who can't watch out for themselves enough to not get hit or hit people with cars be called a retard??

Nothing against handicapped people here, they know how to cross the fucking street. I'm straight up calling 'normal' people pants on head retarded here.

Anyway, back to the point I'm trying to make. The thing is, we have these little systems to keep us 'safe', and we do the same things inside our own heads. Thinking there is a balance and structure to our lives. We think that if we're nice, good things will happen, and bad things will happen to the dickfucktards we all have in our lives.

It doesn't work like that though. Chances are the dickfucktards are confident (or at least do a good impression) and that confidence will be a huge help to them. Doesn't mean they wont walk into traffic one day and get hit by a car either. But what is does mean is that most people will be at their funeral cause it's better than going to work that day.

And the nice people do tend to have their karma come back around. Know why?? Being nice is a good thing. People appreciate it, and if you are genuine and honest, when life shits on you, and you need help, all those people you were nice to will offer it. Unless their dickfucktards...

What I'm saying is, Karma isn't some energy floating around balancing out your life. What we think of as karma is the natural byproduct of people getting to know who you really are.

So how does this relate to fairness?? I don't think such a thing really exists. I think it is an illusion. Something we dreamt up for ourselves so we don't have to admit that we have no idea what is coming. There's just as big a chance it's more shit than it is something good, which is terrifying. It's much nicer to think that any shit that happens will be balanced out later with good stuff. Some folks even think if things are going well then shit must be coming.

I say just roll with it. See how your day goes. Don't compare it to yesterday, yesterday is gone, it only exists in your memory, and a billion other peoples memories. It was a shitty day, and a great day, Tomorrow will be the best day ever, and a cat is going to be hit by a bus as in front of someone who loves it. It's going to be a day., and that's all we really know about it.

Now Really, if Fairness existed, this picture would not.


Besides, if you never had a bad day, you wouldn't feel so good when you have a great one. Maybe don't worry so much about what is coming, or what is owed you.

Why not try making today better than yesterday?

Kneel Before Your False Idols

Everyday, throughout my day that is void of cable TV, magazines, and other such intelligence robbing materials I am still subject without my consent to witness the world worshipping their false idols.  Don’t get me wrong this isn’t some biblical rant, it is however the only way I can possibly convey the worlds obsession with the mind rot of celebrities and their god-like hold over the entire world. 
We are living in a world where people are being murdered, raped, molested and victimized every minute of everyday and here I am in the bloody godforsaken line up at the grocery store being assaulted by these “rags” about Angelina Jolie and her fucking marriage falling apart or Britney Spears losing her marbles…you have GOT to be kidding me.  This is news? This is important? This??? This trite I am supposed to give a shit about? I wouldn’t even wipe my ass with this mind numbing drivel…I wouldn’t even wipe my ass on their faces, you know why? Because it’s NOT important.  I would hate to think that my life is so worthless and my interests so shallow that my biggest concern in life is the marital breakdown of some person that buys babies like tourist T-shirts and makes so much money in one year she could seriously put a huge dent in the world’s most impoverished countries. 
The part that gets EVEN worse is that people; your coworkers or your slightly retarded friends actually TRY to engage you in conversations about these people.  So now I have to sit there and watch the clock tick away the minutes of my life that I will not get back? No, no I do not and I don’t.  I put an end to it and god forbid; I change the topic to something meaningful, to politics, I would rather debate abortion then have minutes of my life sucked down someone’s cakehole as they go off about some celebrities extra marital affairs.  We live in a country where 50% of marriages do not succeed so I’m guessing (geez I hope this isn’t a shot in the dark) that a LOT of people have affairs, I would be more interested in say; my own marriage, maybe the marriage of my close friends or family members then I would or should ever be about these people. 
People that buy into these ideals about celebrities and worship them above all else are like the mere peasants at their feet.  Why put so much time into someone that A) is dominating the world through superficial means B) has a cult-like following of other half retarded morons and C) doesn’t care whatsoever about your own puny little existence? How self depreciating that is.  You will hold these people in highest regard in your life? You will dedicate hours, days and even years of your life reading scathing articles about them, paying 7 bucks to look at unflattering pictures of them in swimsuits?
I understand on their end at least, I mean even they have more intelligence then the idiots buying into it because they are selling the world’s least intelligent (vast majority of the world) what they want and they do it without effort.  Then afterwards they will sell you overpriced clothing produced in sweatshops by small Asian children with bloody finger tips, perfumes that are being tested on and killing common house hold pets…oh yes they are definitely worth caring about.  I mean with such a high regard for people outside of their perfect little life and their consistent compassion for the common man/woman…yes I can see why they are on their pedestal and why the world is on their knees.
