I think that the TV is the Soma to the emerging Brave New World. It can be a powerful tool for learning, although it doesn't compare to reading a book. In practice it is used more like a billboard/opiate. I think that a black out lasting a week may solve allot of human problems, but most people seem too hypnotized to give…
I think this surge in public condemnation of smokers (not to mention the fucking cigarette tax :facepalm:) is a conspiracy. Cigarettes are a conciousness expanding drug, partially due to the fact it is common knowledge they are bad for you. If you are willing to potentially cut years off your life and food from your money…
I think that unless you flirt with death you cannot fully be aware of life. Not wanting to smoke is one thing, but people who deamonize it often appear to be terrified of their own mortality.
Either 5 years in the future or the early to mid 60's. I have always thought that Victorian English era may be fun if you were rich enough to live a life of rampart drug use at the time heroin was given to infants, but I think the general attitude of that era would be generally unpleasent.
The only reason I signed up to vote is so I don't get fined later, so I will probably vote for nobody. I really don't give a fuck about politics, particually given the spectrum of political choice we are afforded. Maybe if there is a party looking to decriminalize drugs I will vote for them, but from the brief amount of…
I guess I will have to go with the government sanctioned 20 cups of coffee a day, a bottle of whiskey a night and when I get slightly older a list of prescriptions as long as my arm. Hoo-Ray for sobriety!!!
I want to try and emulate the best aspects of William S. Burroughs, Terrence Mckenna's and Lou Reed's careers. Failing that I would like to find a way to make money without having to work for somebody else if at all possible. At this stage I am probably going to wind up a bum though....
I have a raging case of meglomania, the urge to overthrow governments and sometimes occasionally fuck my horse (depending which Caesar I feel like being at any point)
A drunk walked into a bar crying. One of the other men in the bar asked him what happened. "I did a terrible thing," sniffed the drunk, "Just a few hours ago I sold my wife to someone for a bottle of Southern Comfort." "That is awful," said the other guy, "And now that she is gone you want her back right?" "Right!" said…
I hope they actually try and outlaw it. I think it would be enough to push people into never taking the government seriously again, unless I am underestimating the stupidity of the masses.
I don't like the word "god" but I think God is conciousness. The act of worshipping conciousness directly tends to bring forth models of behaviour, and models once they become habit often cease to be concious. So if god is conciousness; it is also novelty and chaos. I think that conciousness is in the process of trying to…
I think that most of these problems will be solved by the more definite mission statement totse has. Unlike Zoklet this place will hopefully avoid taking the form of a pseudo social networking site... and keeping "thanks" out of the equation should keep the atmosphere more relaxed . Debate is a good thing, just as long as…
I agree that fun is what it's all about, but I am all for information exchange allong with the entertainment. The main problem with zoklet was that there was a fuckload of debate, but very little information. Having a pissing contest over who is right or wrong is frankly a boring and totally pointless persuit; it should be…
I had some fucked up dreams involving a crime commited by some people I know and me having to become involved. I think a guy was being tortured over owing money and I was torn between helping and abandoning the people. The other one was of Hitler, Churchill and Stalin ordering soldiers to submerge themselves in canals and…
I never quite looked at it like that before. When I think about it I was probably turned onto drugs after taking flu medication at a young age and feeling "tingly" because of the codiene. In a larger sense it seems difficult to properly define "drugs" at all. If you feel bored and turn on the TV for a few hours how is that…
If you are going to commit social suicide, do something less bitchy than snitching them out on a test. Running to the authorities to get even with people is pretty fucking weak.
