About Me

When the information age meets the age of deception,
how does one know where the truth ends and the lies begin?
before you can be honest with anyone else,
you must first be honest with yourself.
don't tell me lies:
i would rather you tell me nothing at all
"There are those who suffer very greatly and cannot tell what is in their hearts, and they go on the way full of suffering. But if they meet someone whose face is bright with laughter, he can quicken them with gladness and it is no small thing to quicken a human being"
-hasidic saying c/o pops' fridge
"The world is a dangerous place to live,
not because of the people who are evil,
but because of the people
who don't do anything about it."
- Albert Einstein
"People are always blaming their circumstances for what they are.
I don't believe in circumstances.
The people who get on in this world
are the people who get up
and look for the circumstances they want,
and, if they can't find them,
make them."
- George Bernard Shaw
"I refuse to be concerned with condescending advice
cause the only motherfucker
that can change my life is me"
-Immortal Technique
"If you were given freedom
by the same people who made you into a slave,
then do you really know what freedom is
and have you ever really experienced it at all?"
-Immortal Technique
"Like it or not, everything is changing.
The result will be the most wonderful experience in the history of man
or the most horrible enslavement that you can imagine.
Be active or abdicate,
THE FUTURE IS IN YOUR HANDS."
-William Cooper(RIP)
"When a person places the proper value on freedom,
there is nothing under the sun
that he will not do to acquire that freedom.
Whenever you hear a man saying he wants freedom,
but in the next breath
he is going to tell you what he won't do to get it,
or what he doesn't believe in doing in order to get it,
he doesn't believe in freedom.
A man who believes in freedom will do
anything under the sun
to acquire . . .
or preserve
his freedom.
I believe in the brotherhood of man,
all men,
but I don't believe
in brotherhood with anybody
who doesn't want brotherhood with me.
I believe in treating people right,
but I'm not going to waste my time trying to treat somebody right
who doesn't know how to return the treatment."
-Malcolm X
Your Birthdate: September 27
You are a spiritual soul - a person who tries to find meaning in everything.
You spend a good amount of time meditating, trying to figure out life.
Helping others is also important to you. You enjoy social activities with that goal.
You are very generous and giving. Yet you expect very little in return.
Your strength: Getting along with anyone and everyone
Your weakness: Needing a good amount of downtime to recharge

My Interests

music and art and love
politics, society, people...
no matter how fucked up they are....
particularly how and why things are the way they are.
i laugh at people's ignorance (to myself mostly)

I'd like to meet:

Get in touch with me if you are doing something with yourself or want to. I'm tired of everyone sucking and being perfectly content with it.
I only want to hear from people who are learning and growing because what is life without growth.
I want to hear from friends, new and old alike...
The real kind:
Don't be afraid to be you.
Don't be fake or have your head up your ass.

i have no time for hate

Music:

anything with a beat...
mostly electronic and hip-hop at this point,
but really an eclectic mixture of musical tastes...
thought-provoking and easily deciphered lyrics
usually help a dope beat...
not so much into metal/rock anymore,
but i can respect talent regardless of genre*,
except for in the case of whining pop/pop-punk!!
Music with a message.
see blog for a few videos...
*Just because I respect talent
doesn't mean I want your band as a friend,
because frankly, I probably don't.

Movies:

Ahh Movies...
Generally, I just don't like to sit still and pay attention for that long.
Something foriegn, especially if i don't have to read it, independent or just a little twisted might just get my attention for long enough.

Television:

Okay, so this is what is wrong with America today...
Television...
Not to say I don't watch cartoons and comedy central...
but really, everything else has to go!

Books:

are cool

Heroes:

those who are not afraid to be heard, to speak up.
the freedom fighters. the revolutionaries. the yippies. (RIP Steve Conliff)
those who stand up for what is right.
those who stand against abuse and evil in any or all of its many forms.
those who help others. those who need help.
those who keep on doing what they do, no matter what. you.
