Tired from the pub

phew that was a hard shift, and I'm doing it again tomorrow! Argh, but more importantly, I go back to university on Saturday & i wont have a net connection till I sort something out with BT, so I'm not sure how long its going to be before I'll be able to update this blog again! Write soon I hope with some more thoughts on the world.

A difficult business . . .

. . .this changing the world. I really should find some time for it at some point, lol. The difficulty is, is that babylon is set up to keep us all busy, that's just part of it's plan. Keep them busy then they'll be so run off their feet just trying to survive, that they wont have any time to do anything stupid like protest, be creative or, heaven forbid, have independant thoughts!! People today are becoming increasingly aware of their surroundings and what's wrong with them. But the same scenario is also turning a lot of people off from politics. And when the news reports daily on death, destruction and the failings of democracy, really, who can blame them?
I'll write more after some sanity-returning sleep.

Oops

So I know my intentions were good last night, but that didn't materialise itself into a post did it? lol. Ah well, I have some time now as I'm waiting for tea to cook. Today's subject: the perfection of the system. Basically, the system is perfect. Not only does it satisfy the majority of people with the lifestyle it offers them (in the West, that is), but for the people that try to criticise it, today's system just brushes it off. For the current state of capitalism has learnt that the best way to deal with criticism is encorporation, not opposition. Wherever people have a problem with its nasty underbelly, the system has learnt to 'encorporate their needs' or 'listen to their views', all a facade to passify the masses. People in power now know, because of increased communications, all the other people in power, and this is a potent and dangerous scenario. The ability for those with to get away with the atrocities they do, because of their power to cover their tracks, is ever on the increase. And this just helps create a culture at the top of manipulation and corruption. Power now to encorporate the minor changes prompted for by the masses to keep them happy. A worry for all of us.

Thinking About the Impossible

I know it's been, like, a month since I last posted, but thinking has been done and, I finally feel like I can begin writing my thoughts and feelings down. Of course the turmoil in my life hasn't helped things - it's certainly been an eventful month! But that aside, I've talked with a lot of people and my attack on the system will begin when I put the first post proper up later this evening!
