taking over the world
I define my character by the music I listen to because I lack substance as a person and need other people's creativity to fill the void. I'm a music nazi who only listens to one genre and automatically assume that everything else is crap because its not quasirockpsuedorapintelligentdnb In essence I like what I'm listening to.mspmb allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" enableJavaScript="false" allowScriptAccess="never" allowNetworking="internal" allowScriptAccess="never"
TV Kills or:A life is a terrible thing to wasteThink about the damage TV has done to our self-image, our dignity, and the quality of our lives. TV kills motivation: The entertainment cartel has spent millions of dollars to determine the most effective ways of keeping you glued to the set. Your brains are being sucked out your eyes. They know how to keep you hooked hour after hour. Oh well. Time for bed. Too late to start it now. Another day slips by... What aren't you doing? What were your dreams? Whose life are you living?TV kills a positive self-image: You can't measure up to stars who are air-brushed, surgically augmented or reduced, have personal trainers, beauticians, nutritionists, designers, hair stylists, etc. Girls are starving themselves to look like women who aren't really real. They are surgically manufactured images, nothing more. Celebrities' fairytale lifestyles are created, presented, and maintained by public relations people. They are fairytales. They are not real.TV kills self-esteem: You can't ever measure up to the pretend, scripted lifestyle of the characters on TV, either. You are human, they are somebody's idea of a human. They are fake, guys 'n gals.TV kills creativity: TV creates all the images for you. MTV even determines the images you connect with a song. You are not creating anything. You are not imagining anything. They are creating the images, the sounds, the colors, everything. They are creating your mental world.TV kills contentment: TV maintains the constant illusion of "lack." You can never have enough or be enough. There's always something else you "need" to have or "need" to be. They're constantly upping the ante with new, improved, must-have stuff. What you have now or who you are now is never enough. And it never will be.TV kills conversation: Sitting and watching TV fosters social seclusion. If the people talk at all, they are rarely involved in a true discussion of ideas. The topic is the show, the comments superficial. It's becoming difficult to find a restaurant that doesn't have several TVs siphoning away the attention that would have been given to fellow human beings.TV kills intimacy: Centering lives around watching TV does not lead to interpersonal intimacy. Couples are increasingly alienated from each other by lack of true conversation. We judge our partners by ridiculous television images of men, women, relationships, sexuality, marriage, etc. TvLand is increasingly nothing more than an animated stroke magazine, which creates an unrealistic sexual landscape for men. They become even more alienated from real women. Your reality has been replaced by some lonely writer's fantasy life. Once again, the real thing just doesn't seem to measure up. So, we gotta buy more stuff to fill the empty spaces in our hearts and lives. The divorce rate soars.TV kills family bonds: TV is on during dinner and other could-be family times. Usually, each member of the family spends the evening in a separate room watching television. Parents are working longer and longer hours just to pay off the toys and status symbols this false TvLand mentality demands. That's time that could be spent with their loved ones. Many people can tell you everything about what some bimbo wore on some award show, but can't tell you why their kids are failing at school and at life.TV kills economic security: Because we have been brainwashed into believing we need the newest, latest, fastest, shiniest whatever, we're not saving money anymore. We live hand-to-mouth on our high salaries, slaves to the credit industry. Save and invest some of that money wisely, instead of buying some self-esteem packaged as a car, and maybe you could work less and do more of what you'd really like with your life. Why use YOUR money to make someone else rich? You're sending some car executive to Cancun every year on YOUR money. You are financing someone else's dreams, while funds for your own dreams trickle away into someone else's pocket.TV kills time: Watching TV gives you the illusion of having done something. You haven't. You have sat and watched something someone else has done. Mantra for our times: "Well, I've always wanted to ____, but I just don't have the time." The rest of the conversation is taken up with discussions of the newest episodes of the latest slop. It is strange how these time-pressured people are able to find the time to watch 3 hours of TV every night.TV kills childhood: TV is consistently sexualizing younger and younger girls. It sends the message that molesting children is appropriate behavior. It feeds the fantasy life of perverts, and tells them they're ok. SEXUAL ABUSE OF CHILDREN IS ILLEGAL AND WRONG. Manipulating children to make money is wrong. Filling our children's world with ugliness, greed, perversion, brutality, degradation, cynicism, blood, and gore is unconscionable. No amount of money can launder that stain.TV kills children: Don't kid yourself. TV violence IS one of the factors that has created a United States where YOUR CHILD IS NOT SAFE FROM OTHER CHILDREN http://www.mizgril.com/tvpt2.html
Thus spoke zarathustra.The order of things.
Maat Other Names: Ma'atPatron of: truth, law and universal order.Appearance: A woman wearing a crown surmounted by a huge ostrich feather. Her totem symbol is a stone platform or foundation, representing the stable base on which order is built.Description: Maat was the personification of the fundamental order of the universe, without which all of creation would perish. The primary duty of the pharaoh was to uphold this order by maintaining the law and administering justice. To reflect this, many pharaohs took the title "Beloved of Maat," emphasizing their focus on justice and truth.At any event in which something would be judged, Maat was said to be present, and her name would be invoked so that the judge involved would rule correctly and impartially. In the underworld, the heart of the deceased was weighed by Anubis against Maat's feather. If the heart was heavy with wicked deeds, it would outweigh the feather, and the soul would be fed to Ammit. But if the scales were balanced, indicating that the deceased was a just and honorable person in life, he would be welcomed by Osiris into the Blessed Land. Maat's presence in all worlds was universal, and all the gods deferred to her.Worship: Worshipped and revered widely throughout all of Egypt. Even the gods are shown praising Maat. http://touregypt.net/godsofegypt/maat.htm
