I have a bunch of jumbled thoughts on this... why are we so unforgiving that we focus so much on inflicting pain? 1. Marco Rubio for instance got paid tens of thousands of dollars during 2013-2014 in exchange for a new Florida funded for-profit-prison amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars. Paid from taxes, and people still vote for him. We just shrug; "extreme consequences for bad behavior is consent." It's a convenient rationalization to ignore corruption, despite the fact it's literal slavery. It's unconsenting unjustified labor. America is 5% of the world population and yet American prisoners make up ~25% of the entire world's prisoners. There is a problem here, but it's ignored because retribution is pleasuring. This mindset is reflective of three decades ago with Nixon's "War on Drugs," and even further back with our understanding of heaven and hell. 2. When children are young, corporal punishment is seen as acceptable. Extreme me...

My throat is as dry as the desert, and I fear it's closing up

I'm so angry sometimes Wishing things were better Feeling pain and feeling anger It feels like hurt and it feels like pleasure I'm so angry, but why? It's anguish and it's hating It's the dopamine refreshing The hurt and pleasure, it is rewarding I'm angry at everything Sometimes it's comforting Familiar feeling holy Righteous anger, to feel better surely

I'm reviving this blog! There are too many thoughts and ideas that keep swirling around in my head. Honestly, it's a bit dizzying. There is just so much to talk about, from artwork past present and future, processing information, politics, etc. A lot on my mind. I think I'll keep it here to ramble and discuss with my inner monologue. Cheers
