I try to to see the beauty in things. Simple movements, color, form. The world is full of scenes everyone takes for granted. But I don't make a conscious attempt at seeing it. I can't say that I do see it all, because I'm sure there's so much that I miss.
I truly dislike people who self-profess statements based on vain and unexamined observations of their own actions. Or even worse, people who want others to have a specific idea of them, and mold every sentence and action to that facade. I also TRULY dislike new pants torn to look old, P.T. Cruisers, and Mustangs that make a mockery of former versions. If you want to look 'vintage', go to a thrift store and buy clothes for $3, you don't have to pay $80 for a dirty looking brand new 'vintage' jacket. If it isn't obvious, I have a problem with elaborate fronts, pretense and whatnot, and it plays a part in my views about pretty much everything. The truth is really underrated.
Anyway, after intense self-analyzation, I think it's safe to say that I am fairly eccentric. Feel free to prove me wrong, after spending enough time with me. I try to be objective with my views about myself (and other people), since having a clear view of the person you are is important to me. Self-delusion is something I try my hardest to dismantle. It's something I don't think I could ever rid myself of entirely. I don't know if it's possible.
It's worth noting that I am very liberal, politically. Both fiscally and socially. I am a pinko commie socialist, castigated in the political world thanks to a stupid stigma leftover fifty years by McCarthy. Political awareness is also important to me, however depressed and overwhelmed I get when I hear all these terrible laws being passed and activities going on. I feel as though my views are grossly underrepresented for views that are not only considered viable in other developed countries, but implemented as well. I guess you can call me un-american, thanks to this.
Okay, I've flitted from subject to subject enough, so I'll finish it up. Message me, maybe I will talk to you.
This is a video that makes me really really sad and angry at the same time. I hope you get mad, but have enough faith in people so you don't just kind of brace yourself for the inevitable spiraling downward. I think that's what my problem is.
