About Me

"Missionaries are murderers. All social reformers are dangerous. And people who are seeking service can be very, very violent, aggressive. They are. If you are in the grip of a good man, it is difficult to escape. You are imprisoned. And he is doing everything for your sake. And whatsoever he is doing, he is trying to find a way through you to his own heaven. You are just the eans. And this is the most immoral act in the world, to treat a man as a means. I call it the most immoral act, the greatest sin, to treat a man as a means. Every man is an end in himself!"
Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh
from "Until You Die"

"The continued existence of a government would be of no great value, if by implications and presumptions, it was disarmed of the powers necessary to accomplish the ends of its creation; and the functions it was designed to perform, transferred to the hands of privileged corporations." -Roger Taney
i don't really know what i'm supposed to say. i'm a dumb bitch that sings about smart girls and isn't one. i write songs about my experience as a lonely jaded asshole, but being down isn't as fun as being cute, so the songs come out cute and fun. but don't let that shit fool you, i'm a dark motherfucker. dark as night.
... okay so that's not true either. well it is sometimes. i don't know. listen to my songs, and if doing that does not provide enough of the ridiculous details about my life, then start asking questions, and i'll answer them. probably through interperetive dance.
oh by the way, i'm in a band with my three best friends, and we're called the naughty naughty nurses... and if you think my shit is cute, the nurses will rot the teeth right outchyo mouf. shit. down there's a video of us doin something stupid, probably. and i apologize in advance if anyone sees the documentary emily lacey made that we're in... holy shit was i drunk, and i look like i have a terrible mullet. sweet.
