About Me


I want to use this space to connect with others who have similar interests as myself! I want my time on earth to be constructive and positive since I choose to be here...I try not to add to environmental waste, I vigorously recycle, I'm vegan, an abolitionist, anarchist!
Veganism is a philosophy and lifestyle that seeks to exclude the use of animals for food, clothing, or any other purpose. Vegans do not use or consume animal products of any kind. The most common reasons for becoming a vegan are ethical commitment or moral convictions concerning animal rights, the environment, human health, and spiritual or religious concerns. Of particular concern are the practices involved in factory farming and animal testing, and the intensive use of land and other resources required for animal farming.
Abolitionism is a political movement that seeks to end the practice of slavery and the worldwide slave trade. It began during the period of the second Enlightenment and grew to large proportions in Europe and United States during the 19th century, eventually succeeding in some of its goals, although child and adult slavery and forced labour continue to be widespread to this day. After 1880, the movement against prostitution was also called abolitionism, as prostitution was seen as slavery by feminists such as Josephine Butler.
"To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget."

My Interests

challenging mainstream society, photograph, anarchism, noisy instruments. free climbing, bike riding, tax evasion, screwing with the political system, yeah yeah!! I view art (in all forms) to be a vital outlet for self expression and self exploration. My own art reflects my thoughts and processes far better than I can in words. I greatly admire works by Tracy Moffitt, Fiona Foley, Monique Cronje, Tracy Emit, Sebastiao Salgado and many other revolutionary artists.....

NO FUCKING WAY SUCKERS
The unbridled capitalism of the petrochemical- pharmaceutical, medical, agricultural and energy industrial complex, combined with the military and other government and nongovernmental establishments and organizations, has created a huge market and much wealth out of the exploitation and degradation of human and other life, harming the soil, our food, out health , and out quality of life.
Michael W Fox
If you can start the day without caffeine, If you can get going without pep pills, If you can always be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains, If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles, If you can eat the same food every day and be grateful for it, If you can understand when your loved ones are too busy to give you any time, If you can overlook it when those you love take it out on you when, through no fault of yours, something goes wrong, If you can take criticism and blame without resentment, If you can ignore a friend's limited education and never correct him, If you can resist treating a rich friend better than a poor friend, If you can face the world without lies and deceit, If you can conquer tension without medical help, If you can relax without liquor, If you can sleep without the aid of drugs, If you can say honestly that deep in your heart you have no prejudice against creed, color, religion or politics, Then, my friend, you are almost as good as your dog.
