The Declination of Independence

About Me

Magnetic declination is the angle between the local magnetic field and true north. The angle varies depending on when and where the compass holder is standing.

In much the same way, statements and interpretations of independence and freedom seem to vary from person to person and situation to situation. What's "right" in one time is not always "right" in another.

These past several weeks have been eye opening. I'm not a new person, but I'm realizing more and more who I am and where I am. I still hate just as much as I did, it's just directed in more constructive avenues.

My Interests

audio, black metal, chains, cigarettes, combat boots, death metal, industrial, knives, linux, mohawks, noise, PBX, piercings, razors, religion in general, scarification, synths, theology, thrash metal, *bsd

I'd like to meet:

Anyone. Everyone, as long as they have a bottle, pack of smokes, and an instrument. I prefer people with musical instruments, but blunt or sharp instruments are cool too.

Music:

Fucking evil music
