Girl’s don’t like to move :( (Taken with instagram)
That’s my LITTLE sister. Graduating. Damn kids…making me feel old… (Taken with instagram)
The 90’s was a great time for spooky music.
The Dresden Dolls
I finally got around to checking out the Dresden Dolls. I missed them before, glad I’m catching up.
The resistance of memory
I think that as a culture and as humans, we have an aversion to memory.
We don’t want to remember really significant ’things’.
Perhaps when we die, we look back on our lives, and we don’t like that breathy feeling of someone, ourselves, looking over our shoulders. We can almost feel the inertia.
It reminds us that we are going to die.
Even if those memories are good.
Unleash the bots
Tumblr has porn spam bots now.
(sigh)
Suppose it was just a matter of time.
It took three boxes to pack up my spice collection (Taken with instagram)
The tragedy of credit: a one act play on the poor
I am so fucking sick of credit scores and credit reports.
Have a bad month, low on cash, pay a bill late - they charge you a late fee.
Then, that late payment is immediately reported to the credit tracking companies. Now in additional to a fiscal penalty, your credit score takes a hit, now everyone you have credit with that can, WILL increase your rates.
Now the credit you have out is less affordable, making the above scenario more likely to happen. It creates a spiraling effect that is almost impossible to stop.
Our entire economy is based on consumer spending, but consumers don’t have anything left to spend, because the financial system has been squeezing every last ounce of value out of Middle American until there almost is no Middle America left anymore.
Why do we tolerate this predatory and inherently biased system as a culture? The income disparity in other countries is much more equitable.
Some (Republicans, etc) claim that without this incentive(?) to keep money, people won’t want to make money.
YOU are never going to be rich. YOU are never going to be in the 1%.
Start fucking voting like it.
Symphonies
To me, pain has a sound. Or sounds.
My body raises such a din.
Heads
My head has been killing me lately. I keep getting these terrible headaches, and they almost always hit me just above the left eye (but before my eye brow). It kind of feels like someone is poking a knitting needle into my skull.
