It's the End of the World As I Know it... I don't know if I feel fine...

I generally try to shy away from blogging about things having to do with popular culture and politics, but my heart is heavy and I felt compelled to comment on the fact that it disheartens me that the esteemed Golden Dome was blown off of Iraq's most famous Shiite mosque! I must openly and honestly admit, that I was also a little perturbed after reading that G.W. Bush thought it a wise idea, to elect a United Arab Emirates-owned company, to be in charge of six of our U.S. ports. Sorry, I don't mean to offend anyone, but I could understand the concern. This could, quite possibly, make us susceptible to future terrorist attacks. It also makes me sad, that we have to listen to the classist, rambling drivel of Italian socialite and "it boy" wannabe, Cody Franchetti, who has dropped little pearls of wisdom, such as, “I am an elitist. I believe in an elite, I believe that people want an elite … because there’s always been one, whether it be an oligarchy or a dictatorship. and “Have you noticed that you can tell that your plate has been wiped on the sides? They always wipe it to keep it clean, but you shouldn’t see streaks. Or at least they should arrange that the light be less direct so you wouldn’t see these streaks of the wipe, no?” But, ladies and gents... nothing, and I mean nothing, quite prepared me for the onslaught known as K-Fudge?... K-Fed... errr Kevin Federline. Must we be subjected to the likes of a song entitled "PoPoZao"??? Why does "the industry" think it necessary to administer record contracts to those people undeserving of such? *sigh* Why must Kevin Federline dabble in rap and PoPoZao? The question is beyond me. I've completely lost faith in the music industry. I've lost faith in our leaders. I've lost hope that we'll ever resolve universal conflict. Lastly, I've lost faith in anything, even remotely resembling good taste. :o( It's official. The world has indeed, gone mad. Pardon me. I think I'll go dig my hole now.

Coffee i dont even know where to start. just when i think i've figured it all out ...

see the ultra conservative has no remote interest in the affairs of his nation. take the port for instance. what matter more to Bush. money and how to make more of it. terrorist attack? when he invaded iraq he ensured there'll definitely be another one. never mind the six ports.

I refuse to even listen to anything the Fudge boy has to say. some marketing department somewhere will be toasting to the new "Eminem". I'm off to tune in and listen to channel zero.

oh yes *sighs* i can completely relate and man, even if everybody s gonna think they were so right in thinking that europeans are all arrogant snobs, i won't buy into all that bullshit. i mean, sorry if i compare so much, i AM homesick. and no, Europe isn't that great either. I feel like all those people should go to America and see what they have back home. and then stop copying fucking American culture. I am sorry, don't wanna insult anybody, but that pisses me off! just because it makes money.....argh.
well, so me too, i resign to the underground. and i am getting seriously sick of all that pop culture talking in my school. people constantly talk about who did record what and is cool or not cool or a real musician or not a real musician in the history of pop culture. maybe i am ignorant because i really don't know all those facts. but it bores me extremely. sorry. yes, maybe i will go back to berlin. yes, probably. sorry, didn't wanna bother anybody....

and yes, nobody said politics should make sense. politics should be profitable nowadays. in a way or the other.......

who cares????

in the end, coffee, i think faith can only be restored in the little things and in the big BIG things like the universe. i mean, this purple flower the other day, with a perfect yellow middle. AMAZING how nature does that. it is SO FREAKIN AMAZING. faith in the glory of nature has never failed me.....

and neither has it when it comes down to children.

man, this post makes me want to crawl under a rock and die.
i never thought i would hear this from you , sister.

WHile there are quite a few people (some won't admit it) who believe in the elite....There are millions upon millions who understand the power of the people.

that many spiders weaving one web can ensnare a lion. Knowing this, i go to sleep peacefully every night..
