He only continues to age like wine and is still making new music to this day - without selling out or sounding dated. - </p> - - <h3>Jimi Hendrix</h3> - <p> - This list isn't complete without him. Jimi is like Santa, Jesus, Abraham Lincoln... its a requirement - you know who he is. Just take a look at every artist after he got big. Jimi's greatness leaked into - all music. His influence can't be stopped by any granfalloon borders. His influence quickly leaked - into even countries that were cultural isolated from the west. Check out Super Djata Band to - see what I mean. - <br/><br/> - Most places say he died from overdose but that is a lie! He was murdered by his - manager who was upset that Jimi wanted to take a break from fame and focus on himself - instead. - </p> - - <h3>Babe Rainbow</h3> - <p> - A fun little viby modern psychedelic band. Also one of the few modern - bands that have well put together albums not just great singles but shitty albums. - There music is fun to listen to and a good choice to bring you out of a bad mood. - </p> - - <h3>Levitation Room</h3> - <p> - Another great modern psychedelic band.

Many people don't know - that prog pop actually exists and prog pop is what The Moody Blues is. Go listen to - The Moody Blues right now!

Also their single Thank You is the first song ever released with - slap bass which was played by Larry Graham. - </p> - - <h3>Graham Central Station</h3> - <p> - Larry Graham created it so that means its 100 percent funk. Larry Graham is the enbodiment of funk - so anything he touches gets turned into pure 100 percent organic funk. - </p> - - <h3>Cymande</h3> - <p> - This one is quite different than any of the funk bands on this list and really is its own thing. - Their name is a calypso word for dove which is a symbol of peace and love.

This is a band that truly transforms - their geist into energy and vibrations for rest of the world to hear. - </p> - - <h3>Lafayette Afro Rock Band</h3> - <p> - Another band that is so funky its lethal!

So much energy!!! - </p> - - <h3>Pacific album</h3> - <p> - This album was made by multiple artists. Its one of the best albums I have ever listen - to.

Not only can he play fast but we can still play with - at least as much geist as Jeff beck, play the most harsh finger breaking far apart scales, - all while leaving Joe Satriani and Steve Vai in the dust. <b>Guitar was his side hobby.</b> - His main thing we brewing.

But its the bomb. It showed me a side of music - I haven't gone into before than. I was listening to Led Zeppelin and that shit before - I discovered the depths of fusion and prog waiting for me. The best parts of life - is when you discover something new and fall deep into the depths of a rabbit hole. - Thats when the world opens up and you start to think differently and open your mind. - Thats why its good to try new things. I wouldn't be who I am today without that push - from Mahavishnu Orchestra. They are a different breed of jazz fusion than the stuff - most fusion fans are use to. Its much harsher and almost meaner. they dis into parts - of the geist other artists stay far away from. - </p> - - <h3>Miles Davis</h3> - <p> - You jazz peeps already know Miles Davis. If your a song writer of any style that haven't - checked out Miles yet give him a try. His music is a good example of how to use space in - music to open things up and close them down. Compare his works and you will see what I mean. - While I haven't dug into his stuff much I really dig his album Bitches Brew. Its very different - than the smooth easy on the ear stuff people often think of when it comes to Miles Davis.

They have no right to be as funky as they are! - </p> - - <h3>Ween</h3> - <p> - A wonderful little silly band. Best known for their album The Mollusk which influenced the creation - of SpongeBob Squarepants. <b>If it influenced SpongeBob so it gotta be good!</b> They have other - great music though that album really stands out to me. This silly little SpongeBob album is somehow - one of the greatest pieces of music of all time! It can easily compare to the prog and fusion stuff - on this list. The mood changes quickly but in a very musical way that paints an entire landscape of - many different colors. - </p> - - <h3>Morphine</h3> - <p> - A really wonderful little treo. Their front band Mark Sandman plays a bass with only 2 strings tuned - in 5ths and he plays it with a slide, their saxophonist Dana Colley can play two saxophons at once, - and their drummer is just a total vibe. - </p> - - <h3>Joy Division</h3> - <p> - This band reminds me of my CS teacher who had a bow tie and worked at a standing table with borderline - too many monitors plugged into a little mac book.

I - dont listen to them much lately but they will always have a place in my heart. - </p> - - <h3>Dr.Feelgood</h3> - <p> - This is a mean ass band. Their music was a rebellian against the prog rock and glam rock music that was - becoming big at the time. Pub rock bands like Dr.Feelgood went fuck it all and instead played mean raw - drunken rock n' roll. This is the kind of music I listen to when skateboarding or when I need to get - shit done. - </p> - - <h3>ACDC (Bon Scott era)</h3> - <p> - I know what your thinking <i>its that band with songs that always sound the same and has sore throat sounding - vocals</i>. Well they were not always like that.

RIP (rock in pleace) Bon Scott. - </p> - - <h3>ZZ Top</h3> - <p> - I dont listen to them much anymore but they had a big influence on my guitar playing. One of my favorite albums by - them is Tejas.

About the + closest I have to an all time favorite. When I was first learning + guitar a family friend showed me The Doors and showed me how to play + a doors rift on guitar. At first it look me to get deeper in their + music but they have always been with me no matter where I go in + life. A lot of artists haven't continued to bring me joy as my taste + changes in the same way as The Doors. If you asked me my favorite + doors song I would say all of them.<br> + <br> + If you dig The Doors please check out Ray Manzarek's solo work. His + solo album The Golden Scarab is my pick for one of the most + criminally underrated albums of all time.</p> + <h3>Robin Trower</h3> + <p>Many people call him a Jimi Hendrix copy but he they are wrong. + While there are crossovers he does have his own style that is + different From Jimi. His old albums, new albums... are all master + pieces. He only continues to age like wine and is still making new + music to this day without selling out or sounding dated.</p> + <h3>Jimi Hendrix</h3> + <p>This list isn't complete without him. Jimi is like Santa, Jesus, + Abraham Lincoln... its a requirement you know who he is. Just take a + look at every artist after he got big. Jimi's greatness leaked into + all music. His influence can't be stopped by any granfalloon + borders. His influence quickly leaked into even countries that were + cultural isolated from the west. Check out Super Djata Band to see + what I mean.<br> + <br> + Most places say he died from overdose but that is a lie! He was + murdered by his manager who was upset that Jimi wanted to take a + break from fame and focus on himself instead.</p> + <h3>Babe Rainbow</h3> + <p>A fun little viby modern psychedelic band. Also one of the few + modern bands that have well put together albums not just great + singles but shitty albums. There music is fun to listen to and a + good choice to bring you out of a bad mood.</p> + <h3>Levitation Room</h3> + <p>Another great modern psychedelic band. I got to see them live + once. The way their guitarist plays finger style really caught my + eye. I often have their songs stuck in my head even if I haven't + heard any of their stuff for months and I don't even realize its + them until I listen to them again.</p> + <h3>Sugar Candy Mountain</h3> + <p>Its one of those great bands I forgot that exists but when I run + into their music again it always brings me great joy.</p> + <h3>King Gizard and the Lizard Wizard</h3> + <p>A very unforgotable name indeed. You may not like some of their + music but they fill quite a bit of area so don't give up on them so + fast. A lot of their songs feel a bit gimmicky for my taste but + still a great band.</p> + <h3>The Black Angels</h3> + <p>Good skateboarding music. Heavy and dark. Very nice indeed.</p> + <h3>Strawberry Alarm Clock</h3> + <p>Its just pure 60's psychedelic extract. They got viby stuff what + more can I say.</p> + <h3>Frank Zappa</h3> + <p>Go check out Frank Zappa. Thats a threat.</p> + <h3>The Beatles</h3> + <p><i>The Beatles exist</i></p> + </td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td> + <h2 id="progessive">Progessive</h2> + <h3>Gentle Giant</h3> + <p>A band very few know of yet it has a cult following. They are a + must for any prog rock fans. They mix in so many sounds and really + push the limits of rock in a way even other prog bands never did. I + may even dare call them my favorite prog rock band.</p> + <h3>Camel</h3> + <p>Another prog band nearly no one knows about. Go listen to their + album Moonmadness right now. Thats a requirement!</p> + <h3>The Moody Blues</h3> + <p>Its commonly believed that they started prog rock. They are known + for their big sound and use of classical music theory. I already + called Gentle Giant my favorite prog rock band so I am going to call + The Moody Blues my favorite prog pop band. Many people don't know + that prog pop actually exists and prog pop is what The Moody Blues + is. Go listen to The Moody Blues right now! Some of their albums are + a bit slow going but thats because they are carefully created works + of art. Their most well known album Days of Future Passed is said to + be one of the greatest concept albums of all time.</p> + <h3>King Crimson</h3> + <p>They are very commercially successful for prog standards. How + could you not like a band with a name like that!</p> + <h3>Van der Graaf Generator</h3> + <p>They sound almost early Genesis. They have a strange natual + darkness that always stands out to me.</p> + <h3>Hatfield & The North</h3> + <p>I really dig their album The Rotters club. That album has a + special place in my heart and is easily one of my favorite albums of + all time!!! Wanta hear the crazy story behind it? There isn't one, I + just really dig it.</p> + <h3>Emerson, Lake & Palmer</h3> + <p>The band was started by a few law firm owners. You believed me + didn't you? They actually just have a boring name. Their music isn't + boring so go check them out! Also a lot of people hate this band for + no reason.</p> + <h3>Caravan</h3> + <p>Most of these bands are British but this one is the most British. + Your welcome.</p> + <h3>Magma</h3> + <p>They write concept albumns about a race of aliens called the + Kobaïan. The lanauge they sing in is the lanauge the Kobaïan speak + so not very many people actually know what they are singing about. + Yes, the aliens are real.</p> + <h3>Yes</h3> + <p>One of the first prog bands I got into. Don't let their + commerical success scare you away. They are indeed very + wonderful.</p><img src="images/tiny_lain.gif" alt="Lain"> + <h3>Can</h3> + <p>The greatest Krautrock band of all time. tbh its one of those + bands I really need to listen to more.</p> + <h3>Amon Duul II</h3> + <p>Another great Krautrock band.

More funk than you can handle! + p-funk is some pretty strong stuff. Its lethal. Its actually two + bands but its members kept going back and forth and they forgot were + each band started and ended.</p> + <h3>Sly and the Family Stone</h3> + <p>A vey influential funk band ineed. They were mixed race and + gender, and they were an important part of the civil rights + movement. Also their single Thank You is the first song ever + released with slap bass which was played by Larry Graham.</p> + <h3>Graham Central Station</h3> + <p>Larry Graham created it so that means its 100 percent funk. Larry + Graham is the enbodiment of funk so anything he touches gets turned + into pure 100 percent organic funk.</p> + <h3>Cymande</h3> + <p>This one is quite different than any of the funk bands on this + list and really is its own thing. Their name is a calypso word for + dove which is a symbol of peace and love. You can hear the peace and + love in their music and it flows into the ear and through rest of + body. This is a band that truly transforms their geist into energy + and vibrations for rest of the world to hear.</p> + <h3>Lafayette Afro Rock Band</h3> + <p>Another band that is so funky its lethal! They were not that well + known during their time recording but have gained much more of a + following now. Do check them out if you think you can handle so much + funk!</p> + <h3>Average White Band</h3> + <p>Its hard to believe a bunch of white dudes can get so funky but + they did and its real funky!</p> + <h3>Jaco Pastorius</h3> + <p>Jaco Pastorius is one of the greatest bassists of all time. He + played for Weather Report and released some really funky solo + work.</p> + <h3>Billy Cobham</h3> + <p>Billy Cobham is one hell of a drummer. He played for Miles Davis + and Mahavishnu Orchestra. You need to listen to his solo work now + (thats a threat). He also had influence on many prog artists + including King Crimson.</p> + <h3>Shuggie Otis</h3> + <p>His dad had a band and personally knew many very well known + artists so Shuggie grow up around them and learned guitar at a very + young age. He played in his dads band as a little kid and they would + make him dress like a old man so they could sneak him into bars to + play with the band. As he got older he got countless offers from + some really big artists to play in their band but he gave them all + up and instead produced his own albums and remained a small artist + so he could make the music he wanted to make.</p> + <h3>Janko Nilovic</h3> + <p>Holy fuck I forgor this dude existed for a while but dam his + music is funky!</p> + <h3>Eddie Hazel</h3> + <p>The first lead guitarist for Funkadelic. His Hendrix like playing + is very badass. He is known for his guitar playing on Maggot Brain + though he also has a great solo album which became rare not long + after its release and is often not talked about much to this + day.</p> + <h3>Gil Scott-Heron</h3> + <p>As of writting this He is an artist I discovered more recently.

You can find - the - archive <a href="archive/the_philosophy_commune.html">here</a>. - <br/><br/> Now that I am redoing this I want to make it - more coherent, honest, and almost spiritual in a kind - of way if you can call it that.

Geist is a German word that can translate - into three different words in English: ghost, spirit, - and mind. I always use it in place of <i>spirit</i> for - its more flexible nature and the more abstract yet - almost mathical and mechanical ways it can be used. - <p> - - <h3>Case against the mythical</h3> - <p> - I don't believe in religion, god, spirits, baby fucking - jesus, magic.. or any of that bullshit. In every way - imaginable I am indeed an atheist. Everything can be - demythized. Before you go saying "I am not religous, I - am spiritual" and go running to your mommy girlfriend - that someone on the internet hurt your feelings and you - need your unwashed cock sucked to feel better about - yourself I have much more to say: Once you truly begain - to demythize something the things you discover are much - more beautiful, artist, and meaningful than any myth or - superstitions can ever be. <br/><br/> Take evolution - for example: there is much beauty, meaning, and a - chaotic sort of inner peace that can be found knowing - the way every species comes and goes into and out of - existance and how new species come to be from a sort of - process that can be slow and careful at times and fast - and rough at others. A complex process that requires - thinking about really small and really large numbers on - a scale are brains are not designed to - understand. Don't know about you but that gives me a - sort of sad joy to think about and makes me think very - big deep thoughts. Much more beautiful than something - as bluntly dumb as god. - </p> - - <h3>How the brain works</h3> - <p> - <i>The brain looks like just a mooshy wet pink - blob.</i> I want you to really think about that - sentence. Imagine holding your own brain in your - hands. What does it look like? what does it feel like? - smell? sounds it makes when you play with it? even - imagine the taste if your willing to go that - far. Congrats, you just used something I call <i>signal - pathing</i>. Your brain has many abstract components - that are associated with different - functions. They <b>dont serve</b> different functions - and <b>arent built for</b> namable functions. <b>Just - assoicated with.</b> By pathing signals through - different components each one designed for processing - data in a special type of way your brain can in the - most effective way with its given resources process - many types of information thrown at it in many - ways. For example the same lanauge can have a spoken - version, written version, sign lanuage version, - braille.. the brain can signal path information can - whatever snese its using to read that lanauge and send - it to many other parts for processing. Things like the - minds eye, internal monologue... are all just artifacts - of signal pathing. Also you used signal pathing to read - all of this and will continue to use it all the time - for rest of your life the same your brain have always - used it. - </p> - - <h3>You are multiple</h3> - <p> - <b>you</b> are the result of multiple consciousnesses - all inside the same head. The left and right side of - your brain when seprated with sugery go out of sync and - each one starts acting independently. Thats only as far - as they can split down. If each half itself could be - split in half like that we couldn't be able to test - it. For all you know you could have a 100 conscious - brain pieces up there. Consciousness is just the - ablitity for the brain to refence itself. Kind of like - how your currently using your brain to read something - about now the brain works. Consciousness alone isn't - the end all. - </p> - - <img src="images/lain.gif" alt="Lain"/> - </td> - </tr> - </table> - - <table border="1" width="60%"> - <tr> - <td> - <h2 id="darwinism">Darwinism</h2> - <p> - As of writing this I am part way through a book on the - subject. Galápagos by Kurt Vonnegut. It uses a - fictional story as a pivot point to go about - understanding how evolution actually works. Go check - out it out. Well anyways I am writing this to explain - what evolution actually looks like and the issues with - Social Darwinism. Evolution in nature is the process of - making species more well adapted through nature - selection. Its a nearly mathical process and <b>it does - not care what we think is the best</b>. The only thing - driving the process is making species well tuned to - their environment. For example evolution might make a - species less physical strong in return for liter weight - and less required food to survive if thats what would - make it better fitted for its environment. It does - things like this all the time take flightless birds for - example. Humans see losing flight as a downgrade but - evolution no longer saw a need for those birds to fly - and instead designed the birds for other uses like - swiming, faster running speeds... - </p> - - <h3>Case against Social Darwinism</h3> - <p> - Social Darwinism is a construct of societies - understanding of the world. Its a reflection of the - bias of those who have been given control, those who - write the history books, those who use their - artificially sense of confidents and undeserved power - to keep their name alive after death. The few who are - worth remembering aren't bought into the light until - they been dead long enough for their revolutionary - ideas not to fuck up the status quo set by the current - narcissists in power. Nikola Tesla didn't get into the - spot light until his ideas lost the revolutionary edge - and conflicts with the people in control of the - electric companies, Martin Luther King Jr was under - attack by the US government his entire life but once - the more progessive side of his message got forgotten - the same people attacking him named a day after him and - made one of his more tame speeches his legacy while the - rest have been forgotten to time. Thats not even - including the countless things forgotten to - history. The small wars, the forgotten scientists and - artists... Nothing is in a vacuum, all these things - enteract with each other in a large choatic system - which adds up to greater change and the movement of - history. If you want to see Darwinism applied to human - society and history read up on some old good Karl Marx - and his dialectical materialism. - </p> - - <h3>Hybrids and the origin of humans</h3> - <p> - Check out <a href="https://www.macroevolution.net" - target="_blank">macroevolution</a>. It goes into - details about hybrids and how humans are monkey pig - hybrids. - </p> - </td> - </tr> - </table> - - <table border="1" width="60%"> - <tr> - <td> - <h2 id="universe">The Universe</h2> - <p> - The Universe is a chaotic system of really small - interactions and really large interactions on a mass - scale all running into each other in a nearly - murderious manner. Everything can be understood through - the lens of dialectics. Everything is the interaction - of engery. The things we know and understand is just - the result of interactions of engery. Even matter can - be viewed through this lens. I don't believe in the big - bang. Instead I have my own theory. - </p> - - <h3>The creation of the universe</h3> - <p> - The Universe didn't come from nothing. Everything have - always existed. In fact outside the universe only - everything exits and there is no nothing, no voids, no - where safe from particles colliding at speeds that - makes light speed look like a childs bikes. Outside the - universe everything interacts with everything forever - in all directions. Its like tv static that goes on - forever. Just like tv static since its random if you - just so happen to pause during the right time and zoom - in you might find a picture of something. It might even - just so happen to be a picture of you! The universe is - one of those. A time and place in a random existance - that just by the chance of randomness is something - coherent. Like finding ShakeSpeare in The Library of - Babel. The engery interacted in a way to create what we - call the big bang. Instead of creating things it just - opened up an area safe from the chaos. A place where - the interions are limited in a way. Constraints that - makes limited yet complex and coherent structures of - engery possible. These structures is what matter - is. Things light speed is a example of one of these - constraints. Its nothing uncommon. Its just a matter of - time until something like this happens. - </p> - - <h3>God</h3> <img src="images/brain_and_the_universe.png" - alt="Human brain compared to galaxies"/> - <p> - The universe may not be anything like a human brain or - any type of brain found on earth but it is still a - natural information processing machine. It doesn't will - things to happen like a religous god. Instead its a - high being bound to the same forces and constrains as - us. It only has the power which are given to it also - like us. It only ever sees what it can and sense what - it can. - </p> - - <h3>Humanities reason for existing</h3> - <p> - I am a big Kurt Vonnegut and his book Cat's Cradle made - me start to think that humans do have a reason for - existing but its not pleasent! I kind of went insane - reading it so just hold on for dear life as I pull - nonsense out of my head. In the book there is something - called ice-nine. You can read about it - on <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice-nine" - target="_blank"> this wikipedia article</a> if your too - lazy to read Cat's Cradle. Spoiler: <b>ice-nine gets - into the ocean and destroys the whole planet</b>. It - made me think: I wonder if the universe brain is in - pain in its own sort of way and are reason for existing - is to create a type of ice-nine that destroys the - universe. I have a sort of surreal depression that - makes existing a pain. Its transends any sort of - normal pain or sadness. Its deeper than just the - survival parts of the brain to warn us if something is - wrong. Its a short circuit that causes sorts of thought - loops and blunt conscious that causes a sort of pain - that is slow and drawn out but adds up to something no - bullet or knife could cause. I often deeply relate to - the universe brain and hope it doesn't have to feel the - same sort of thing. The universe can't end itself and - no human will destroy willfully: humans are going to - end the universe by mistake just like when ice-nine got - into the ocean. Humans may be fucked up pig monkey men - and freaks of nature but we are good at one thing: - destroying things by mistake. Evolution designed us for - that. Part of natural selection is testing each species - and Adam and Eve is a medifor for that test. It proved - we are well designed to destroy things by mistake so it - picked us. - </p> - </td> - </tr> - </table> - - <table border="1" width="60%"> - <tr> - <td> - <h2 id="absurdism">Absurdism: a healthy cure to - nihilism</h2> - - <h3>Nihilism</h3> - <p> - Nihilism is a philosophy many know of but few can truly - understand. Its the moment you realize nothing you do - will ever matter. When everything everyone knows and - holds so close to them is so clearly a pointless game - yet they think your crazy to point it out when they are - the ones devoting so much to a big lie. <b>Until you - can bluntly look at your school, work, family, friends, - partner, pets, political party and ask yourself "why do - I do any of this?" and realize it really wouldnt matter - much if that all came to an end you still arent a - nihilist.</b> As a nihilist you no longer see happiness - and sadness, love and hate, life and death: you know - the universe is just a bunch of atoms and particles and - any other concept we have is blunt bullshit in its - finest form. <br/><br/> - <b>Those who dont understand nihilism may see this as - sad when to a nihilist it is a source of - blissfulness and numbness.</b> The real pain is - caused by the conflict between the bliss of - nihilism and the painful ways of non-nihilists, - people who put importantness in meaningless - things. Those who make it as difficult as possible - to make yourself comfortable because they make up - reasons you cant be comfortable and enforce through - the force of pure size in numbers. - <b>A true nihilist would never start a war</b> because - they see no point in it, non-nihilists would abosutely - start a war even over the most pointless bullshit. The - flaw of the nihilist is they sure arent going to stop - the war either. Let the people fucking die we often - say. Luck they are I would say. Finally getting the - type of peace and bliss that comes with death that no - non-nihilist would never let happen during life. - </p> - - <h3>The absurdist cure</h3> - <p> - It is said when faced with nihilism there are three - options: - </p> - <ol> - <li>Suicide, life doesnt matter anyways so why - not?</li> - <li>Intelligencical suicide: giving yourself up to a - religion, cult, or some other philosophy. Giving - into the anti-nihilist lies and living a life of - false meaning.</li> - <li>Fully enbracing the absurd. You may not been freed - from our shitty society but you been - intelligencically freed. Now that you know no god - rules over and nothing is holy your now only bound - to practical limits instead of social ones. No more - greater meaning in the position of rulers and - authority, now you just gotta be careful not to get - caught lol. No more tabboos to enforce social - standards with no moral grounds.</li> - </ol> - <p> - <b>The third option is the absurdist option. As a - absurdist your still a nihilist</b> but now instead of - not trying to stop wars because nothing matters you can - fight against wars for that very same reason. Do - everything a nihilist cant but always with the same - reasons as a nihilist. As a absurdist you arent finding - meaning or giving things meaning, your in a constant - nonstop rebellion against meaning! When people think - your crazy for calling society pointless you still walk - away just like a nihilist but only now you also flip - them off as you walk away. Every pointless action you - do and the life you live knowing everything is - pointless is a middle finger to the universe, a sign to - the world it may fucking suck but your still alive. - Its a insult to someone not there to hear it. <b>The - world may have no meaning but reguardless you are going - to kick it in the ass.</b> <br/><br/> Society is - designed by anti-nihilists to keep people under the - control of the rulers. Thats why everywhere is focused - on option two. Thats why when people who see everything - as pointless go into therapy they are always pushed - toward option two. The very thing that defines religion - and spiritual believes in our society is so heavily - bias towards option two most people cant even begin to - image the concept of people coming together in a type - of absurd worship of option three. <b>When meaning is - no more worship without meaning is now possible, - religion without god or faith, morals without anything - to uphold them.</b> It is in many ways like RumFoord's - Church of God the Utterly Indifferent. - </p> - </td> - </tr> - </table> - - <table border="1" width="60%"> - <tr> - <td> - <h2 id="bsyn">Absurdist Wissenschaftic Socialism (my home - brew political ideology)</h2> - <p> - Absurdist Wissenschaftic Socialism or bsyn for short - (bsyn looks cooler than aws) at its core is a ideology - that believes in bringing about communism in absurdly - unconventional means of revolution. - </p> - </td> - </tr> - - <tr> - <td> - <h3>Bsyn english class</h3> - - <h4>Communism</h4> - <p> - Stateless, classless, and moneyless society.

In bsyn a comrade doesnt have to - be someone with the same ideology, instead a bsyn - comrade is anyone also contributing to the goal even if - its not as directly and even if they arent aware of - it. If the future is more communist than the present - than in a undirect way everything is socialist and if - the future is less or the same amount communist as the - present in a way nothing is socialist, because of that - its important in bsyn to look at undirect effects while - at the same time not overbroadening everything to the - point words no longer have any use. - <br/><br/> - An <i>Absurdist Wissenschaft Socialist</i> - or <i>bynist</i> isnt a thing. <b>Bsyn is not an - identity.</b> Read up - on <a href="blog/index.html#case_against_identity" - target="_blank"> identity</a>.

In - bsyn you can use just about anything to describe - yourself just be mindful if what you choose might hurt - the goal. - <br/><br/> - In bsyn studying the works of - Karl Marx and his dialectical methods are quite handy - and a valuable resource. Though not every marxist - movement is socialist due to the fact they put zero - effort in pushing towards communism even if they - claim to. - <br/><br/> - Bsyn - has a focus on using technology to bring about - communism, using machines do to all the boring mind - numbing work while people get to spend more time on - things like art and science. One of the first and most - important steps in modern communist revolution is - making less busy work and opening up space for people - to learn and use skills and interests that they find - genuine rewarding.

Reguardless, a species can still take even the - most unconventional routes imaginable as long as they - are always steps forward in the direction the species - needs to go to survive. Bsyn is a lot like that, it - will never push away from communism but it will take - the strangest routes there. Unlike evolution, the - direction bsyn pushes toward is a lot more "idealize" - than the direction evolution tends to push. - <br/><br/> - In bsyn there are two sayings: <b>By any means - necessary</b> and <b>there is nothing more permanent - than a temporacy solution</b>.

Everyone has an ideology even if they don't - realize it. For example christian views are very - closely tied to christian ideology and effects - everything they do and think. "God created the - universe, gave us the 10 commandments, sent jesus down, - will send you to hell if you dont go to church..." - Thats quite view shaping and mind effecting wouldnt you - say so? If a christian tells you they support lgbtq+, - women... rights they are either a fool or a lying - fucker. Dont believe them for even a second because - they will fuck you over and everyone else to. Religion - is like this in general because it was created by - social darwinist narcissists who use their lies to - control. "you will go to hell if you dont follow the - commandments of an all powerful being that you cant - ever talk to and you must trust the words of people - above you to know what he wants" sounds like lies - created to control doesnt it? Real social change only - comes when religion and power structures are brought - into question. If it was up to the rulers and religous - leaders of the world we would still be in the dark - ages. - </p> - - <h3>Abortion</h3> - <p> - New people are created when people fuck in the magic - way. Take this from someone who engages in same sex - activities: <b>dicks going into pussies isnt the only - way to have sex.</b> The other ways dont create - babies. It gets even better, even if you do wanta fuck - the magic way smart people created plastic thingies to - stop the people making seeds from going into the human - egg. The same smart people also made pills and lots of - other wonderful things to stop the pain of creating - humans and the suffering they will face when they are - pulled into this terrible world kicking and screaming. - <br/><br/> It gets worse: when people are stupid, poor, - and in times of terrible hardship they only ever - <b>increase</b> the rate they fuck the magic way and - without seed stoppers. World War 4 could happen and the - birth rate would only go up. This creates more humans - who are forced to live in this shitty world. But even - when people are too stupid to fuck the other ways or - use seed stoppers we still have one last line of - defense: <b>abortion</b>. This beautiful treatment - removes the unborn flesh of a human from its mother - before its anywhere close to consciousness, before it - have had a taste for the pain of the world. <br/><br/> - Christians view women as private property, people - making machines, personal maids, human sex toys... - even though they have the same human brain and are - nearly just as dumb as men christians think the idea - that a women owns her own body is too much. They want - women to be raped by stupid men, they want to control - everyones sex life and make sure they only ever fuck - the magic way and without seed stoppers. They want more - people forced to live and christians even made sure - everything fun is a sin, outlawed drugs that give - people an escape from the things christians do, made - <i>sillycide</i> way more difficult than it needs to - be, took over the entire planet... all because their - ideology calls for <b>everyone</b> on earth to live a - christan life of suffering. - <b>Abortion is a beautiful thing fight for it to - stay!</b> - </p> - - <h3>Womens rights</h3> - <p> - Even though I am gender-void (I made that up, if you - have a problem with that go fuck yourself) I am - assigned male at birth and still often use a male mask - for close minded people so they will not open their pie - hole about it. This makes me feel stupid and uninformed - about womens rights, and that is because I am stupid - and uninformed about womens rights. But what I do know - is that even though all social issues are equally - important womens rights are at a very high level of - importantness and should be the first thing on the mind - of any true leftist. <br/><br/> "Social progress can - be measured by the social position of the female sex." - - Karl Marx <br/><br/> I encourage all men to learn how - to just be friends with the women in their lives. A - message to the men reading this: the women in your life - will teach you things and help you develop as a person - in ways other men never will. Women make for the best - comrades. As soon as you make every interaction with - women about weird horny stuff, discrediting them for - something... everything goes to waste. If your a incel - and blame women for everything sorry to break it to you - but it was other men that fucked you over not women. If - your willing to put those feelings aside the - friendships you will gain with women as time goes on - will be much more rewarding than just fucking alot and - when the time finally comes for you sex will be a lot - less awkward and more personal and borderline - spiritual. And the insight that removing sex bounaries - in friendship brings might just contribute to realizing - your bisexual like it did for me. For men fighting - against women will only ever keep them closed minded - and brain washed. - </p> - - <h3>Race</h3> - <p> - Race is a clear example of how social darwinists use - social constructs to control. The narcissists in power - brain wash people to hate and fear other groups of - people so they can put up borders, keep out artist and - intellectual works, keep their people - stupid... everyone has the same big, faultly, lying - brain so whats the point in sorting everyone - into <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Granfalloon" - target="_blank"> granfalloon</a> groups? Its to make - sure everyone is too busy fighting each other to - realize they should have been fighting the people in - power the whole time. They lie to us about what - critical race theory is because they dont want you to - know <b>crt a dialectical and enlighted way of viewing - race</b> though I would argue crt is also very narrow - and only serves as a prove of concept of how - dialectical materialism can be applied to social - issues. Just learn dialectics and class consciousness - instead. Neoliberalism is a ideology of dumbing things - so it made everyone think racism happens on a person to - person interaction scale when really <b>racism happens - on a systematic level</b>. - </p> - - <h3>Disabilities and mental illness</h3> - <p> - This society is so fucking terrible that it even has to - pick on people with disabilities. Wanta see a doctor - about your fucking back? well too bad get a fucking - job! Wanta fucking job? "Sorry we just so happened to - hire a able body even you know way more about the field - and your disability will not get in the way at all what - so ever". To make things worse thinking differently in - are closed minded is treated like having a fucked up - back. I was diagnosed with a thinking differently - disability called autism. It doesnt fucking matter that - spoken language works just fine for communication - because everyone decided to instead use nonsensefull - looks on their face half the time. I am going to tell - you right here <b>there isnt any logic behind how you - fuckers communicate with looks on your faces</b>. Its a - bunch of bullshit and all of you are oddly on the same - page about it and you will go as far as to call someone - disabled for not being on the same page about it even - though you are too fucking stupid to come up with a - logical system for the face looks, document it... you - also think not putting up with ear bleeding noises is a - disability. Dont you fucking dare pretend to feel bad - for us when you are perfectly willing to fully support - a society that systematicly makes us disabled. Are - brains work just fine as they are <b>you</b> are just - so nonsensable and hold neurotypical views so high up - that you are perfectly happy supporting the bullshit no - matter how many of us <b>commit sillycide</b> because - of the way <b>you</b> treat us. Its a text book example - of social darwinism indeed. - </p> - - <h3>lgbtq+</h3> - <p> - Message to the anti-lgbtq+: Many of you think being - anti-lgbtq+ makes you cool and edgy so lets take this - one step at a time. Are society is held up by social - constructs that controls who can have sex with who, - what clothes you can wear, what kind of name you can - have, what pronouns you can go by... lgbtq+ are harmed - by these social constructs and want to live their life - freely. By telling them they cant do those things and - making rules to stop them you arent cool and edgy, your - as punk as the fucking pope! Call yourself an - anarchist? If you cant handle the idea of sexual and - gender anarchy than I dont think your ready to actually - take down the system because when it comes to that - stuff you will quite happily keep the system up. - <br/><br/> All moral arguments against lgbtq+ depends - on the existance of some god that for whatever reason - declared that stuff sinful. If your non-religous and - anti-lgbtq+ your a fool and more brain washed by - religion than you think, if your religous and - anti-lgbtq+ than your not only a narcissist simping - asshole but a intellectual and moral slave to your own - religion, if your pro-lgbtq+ and religous your quite - comfortable supporting neoliberalism and believing the - hate has nothing to do with a systematic ideology - deployed by the church and it <i>just so happens to - be</i>. <br/><br/> Lgbtq+ can be thought of in terms - of marxist historical materialism. It may be rough - right now but thats part of the process of - evolution. No one quite agrees on even the smallest of - details but thats the beauty of it all. Right now - lgbtq+ is still based in some amount of social - constructs and still a slave to some amount of bullshit - are society created but it will evolve, it will bring - us even more freedom... for that to happen you gotta - accept the movement even in its rough state and help it - grow into something greater. The narcissists - controlling the system will feed you talking points to - stop you from helping the movement remove power from - the them. Dont fall for their bullshit they are just - scared that the more free we become the less we will - support narcissist bullshit. <br/><br/> There is no - scientific reason sex same relationship has to be - taboo, there is no scientific reason someone cant - choose their own pronouns, there is no scientific - reason someone cant consent to sugery to remove - their <i>fuck organs</i> (no matter how harmful and - pointless some random study claims stopping them is - against their freedom and saving people from themsevles - is a narcissist journy of mental masturbation: not a - heroic act), there is no scientific reason there needs - to be seprate mens and women bathrooms, there is no - scientific reason someone cant choose what labels they - use to describe themselves due to the fact <b>all - language is human made and completely socially - constructed start to end</b>. Any and all arguments - like "someone is what they are born as" and "men cant - play in womens sports" is complete bullshit and not - based in nature because nature couldnt fucking case - less if those things happen. Nature doesnt fucking care - if a person born with a penis wears a skirt and pisses - in the womens bathroom, <b>a <i>man</i> playing in - womens sports is not going to cause anyone to get - struck by lightning</b>. All of you anti-lgbtq+ are so - fucking dumb you think that a concept a bunch of people - came up with is just as natural as the fucking trees. - <br/><br/> If not getting in the way of peoples lifes - and their personal choices isnt enough for your - neoliberal brains here is a fact for you: <b>the - percent of people that detransition isnt the same as - the percent who changed their minds</b>.

Well anyways, I am - going to tell you what real socialist economics is. - <b>The USS shit is a fucking terrible example of - socialist economics.</b> Dont give me that <i>socialism - only works in theory</i> bullshit because here is the - truth about socialism: socialism is not when the - government does stuff, its not when everyone is paid - the same no matter how much they work, its not when - everything is ruled by a dictatorship... all socialism - really is in truth is the concept of common ownership - of things like the means of production (aka large - factories, farms...). <b>We do not want to seize your - PS5 or your steam deck. We dont want your fucking - house, car, cat, grandma...</b> No, we dont give a fuck - about your grandmas small sock making business. On the - grand scale of things grandmas homemade socks are - nearly a hobby even if pays for her trips for See's - Candy. Grandmas socks wont make any difference on the - economical level socialists tend to think in and anyone - that calls themself a socialist and attacks your - grandmas sock business is a fool and a asshole. For an - idea of what a decent use of socialism looks like take - a look at project cybersyn. - </p> - - <h3>The evils of capitalism for dummies</h3> - <p> - Imagine everyone has a bag of rice. Some people have - very little and others quite a bit more. In rice school - everyone is told to plant a bit of their rice and save - a bit for eating. For those who barely even have enough - to eat this sounds like crazy talk while for others - they grew up on a family farm that have been doing - quite well for ages. One day someone name Tod from a - good family rice farm finally goes out to start his own - farm. Tod's family gives him a nice big bag of fresh - rice to use to start his own farm and he heads out to - find a good place for a rice field. While he is - traveling he quietly complains how heavy the bag is and - even think a few things "it would really hurt to be hit - with a bag this size". He finally finds a nice place - for a new rice field but someone already got few only - seconds before he did. Tod notices they have a much - smaller liter bag than him so he walks up to them and - bang! He fucking hits them right in the head with his - bag. He even dumps their whole bag into his. This gives - him a new idea: he starts hiding in a bush and - attacking anyone that comes to that spot and each time - his bag gets bigger and heavier. Soon its too heavy to - even lift so now he finally decides to plant some. - <br/><br/> Now Tod is faced with some issues: - protecting the rice he cant carry with him, balancing - mananging a farm and attacking people... so he decides - to go to some poor children and very kindly offer them - some rice. He quickly wins over their trust and tells - them he can get them more rice if they work for - them. He has all of them setup the farm and start - planting while he goes out to fucking hit more people - and steal their rice. Whenever he comes back he - carefully one at a one pulls one of the children aside - to tell them he will give them a raise if they report - any stealing and if they steal they get knocked out by - the bag. A few get reported and knocked out until - everyone started truly fearing Tod. <br/><br/> The - ones who were known for always reporting got a few - raises and started staying by Tods side all the time. - Tod put them in charge of watching over things while - they he was gone and even sent them out a few times to - knock people out for him. They always looked down on - everyone else and thought they got the good end of the - deal. One day one of them decided to use their high pay - to start their own farm and even knocked out some - smaller targets aka kind of a downed scaled version of - what Tod was doing. When Tod found out this was - happening he had that person knock out by the heavest - rice bag right infront of everyone else on the - farm. This was the first time when of the higher ups - even got knocked out and it completely changed - everything. Now it was clear no one was safe. - <br/><br/> As everyone learned who Tod was they would - start running and as soon as they learned he was in - good enough shape to outrun them even carring a large - bag they would give up and drop their bag in fear of - getting hit. Sometimes he would find those same people - days later starving and they would finally give in and - agree to be work on his farm. Once he had enough - workers to create an army he sent them to take out an - entire family farm and make it his own. After that he - didnt even have to take over family farms. They would - agree to pay tax in return for not getting taken over - by his army. Tod even paid the rice schools to only - teach the things he wanted them to teach. <br/><br/> - The end, <b>I dont fucking do happy endings!</b> I ask - of you to reflect on this story and think about are - society. Think about all the evil companies buying out - smaller companies. Think about prices going up faster - than wages. Think about all the ways these big - coprations fuck us over. The ultra rich dont get to - where they are simply planting their money in - investments and working hard to grow their - companies. Thats only part of the story. They handle - their money like a fucking weapon and use it the same - way Tod used his heavy bag of rice. - </p> - - <h3>Socialism in practice</h3> - <p> - If reading the story of Tod is making you think of - other ways rice can be handled like community rice - farms where everyones fair share of work will keep - things going but they can still make their own on the - side, rice market system and groups of people setup to - stop people like Tod from grow... and you compare these - ideas and thing how they could be created than you have - the mind of a socialist. If you look up to Tod as a - great business man, think "well, that is just the way - things are", twist things up to think Tod is somehow - helping people by giving them jobs and feeding them - even though he quiet clearly just caused pain the whole - time... than get the fuck off my website you social - darwinist! Thats right, <b>socialism has never had any - set in stone policy or economic models</b>. Thats - because socialism is for thinkers and problem solvers, - people who never look at something and say "things are - what they are", people who can pull in inspriration - from even the most disconnected sources and create - something new from it, people who know things can be - done better and dont see the shitty ways things are - done as something to put up with... any sort of - coherent policy or economic model would ruin the entire - point, it would be like making a free form jazz artist - play a hit song perfect note by note or tell Bob Ross - what he can and cant paint. That is why Karl Marx came - up with a framework to change for your use instead of - any set in stone plan of action. What is why people - like Stalin call themselves a socialist yet are quite - far seprated from the rest. Just look at how much - fucking infighting on the internet we have just for an - idea of how far seprated we can really be from each - other even with so many common goals. - </p> - - <h3>My travels</h3> - <p> - I was raised conservative and left it behind when I - discovered they didnt really stand for freedom and - truth, I went libertarian until I discovered they also - didnt stand for freedom and truth, I went anarchist - until I read a tiny bit Karl Marx and got caught up - with all the labels on the internet and didnt know what - to call myself; Finally, I was reborn a socialist when - I rediscovered my will to learn and come up with new - ideas that been with me my entire life but almost went - away with all the effort school, mainstream interenet, - and society went through to try to distroy it. Read - books and think deeply about everything, dapple around - in everything but never stick. Surf your car radio and - think "is what the radio voices telling me just a - distraction?". Conservative radio has the weirdest - fucking ads. No, I do not need to see a doctor about my - balls, I am not looking for a service to turn my 5 - million dollars worth of retirement funds I dont have - into gold and silver to keep it safe from the lizard - people, I do not need to sign up my dog for an anti - ak-47 course I like my indistractable terrorist guns - thank you very much. Conservative radio: what a bunch - of mind numbing nonsense. <br/><br/> Speaking of mind - numbing nonsense fuck the polical compass, fuck the X - number values tests, fuck all the nonsense labels for - ideologies no one is part of that haunts the polical - forms and chatrooms of the internet. No, I dont give a - flying fucking about <i>marxist leninist maoist - trotskyist MAGA neonazi fascist antifasc - neo-dronestrike-obamaist anarcho-bidenism</i>. They - turned it into fucking pokemon. Instead of making - polical compass memes <b>shut up and read a fucking - book!</b> It doesnt need to be boring Karl Marx book. - Read Breakfast of Champions, right now, before I - fucking kill you! - </p> - - <h3>Decentralizated non-privatized and the wonder of worker - unions</h3> - <p> - You know what we need? More non-profits, not - the <a href="https://digdeeper.club/articles/mozilla.xhtml" - target="_blank"> mozilla</a> shit. Some dam good - ones. All the democrats checks arent working, they - arent going to mail you life long healthcare in the - mail, mail you your retirement money you lost in a - conservative gold and silver scam, mail your coworker - the overtime pay management cut so they can buy a - $40,000 vacuum cleaner no one needed... sorry children - santy aint coming this x-mas! This year we gotta be are - own x-mas elfs. By that I mean you, I am not a human - (more on that later) no matter how often you fuckers - pull me into your problems. Wish I could help but - sorry, the void calls for me. Profits are stupid, - infact there is a direct connection between low profits - and how good a company is. Sorry to break it to you but - non-profits, low-profit companies... get more shit - done, pay and treat their workers better... than for - profit companies in the same field. Anytime a for - profit company has more to offer its not going to last - long, once they are set in place they will up prices - and lower worker pay, once Tod wins over the trust of - the poor children he treats then like shit and turns - them against each other. Again with Tod, just avoiding - the for profits alone isnt going to fix much, just like - Tod they will take out everything and make things worse - to the point you are forced to either eat Tods rice or - rice from a family farm paying taxes to him or face - starving to death. The only fix is to <b>beat Tod - himself with a bag full of his own rice</b>. To do that - is going to need lots of people to agree to work - together. Aka a worker union. <br/><br/> Striking isnt - the only thing a union can do either. Now days with - fancy computer stuff strikes are nearly useless. Take - a look - at <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Cybersyn#Impact" - target="_blank">the chile trucker strike</a> for an - example of that. Though also with fancy computer stuff - you can be oh so very much more evil with running a - worker union. Get your IT nerds, webdev nerds... to - join the union you can use the companies very own - website to leak secret information, make the entire - company network go crazy, black mail a boss with office - sex footage found on the CCTV... Tech nerds, office - workers, middle management, cleaning and HAV people... - often dont like to work together and alot of them dont - even feel like a worker union could help them and when - most worker unions are bought out, too small, and not - creative enough or bald enough they actually do cant - help a handful of the time. <b>Thats why you human - skill people and thinking skill people gotta team - up!</b> I am not a human so its a given I dont have - the human skills so without a human skill person I cant - do much and so far no human skill person who isnt - scared of me in sight. - </p> - </td> - </tr> - </table> - - <table border="1" width="60%"> - <tr> - <td> - <h2 id="nonhumanism">Nonhumanism</h2> - <p> - <b>I am not a human</b>.

Imagine being a cat living in dog - society. Everything is built with dogs in mind, jobs - shifts are all planned around dog hours, the - restaurants serve dog food in dog propartions, the - stores sell only dog products, the toys are dog toys, - the parks are designed for dogs, the vets specialize in - dogs, everyone talks with barks instead of meows...

And to make - it worse employers discriminate against me. If you - arent working customer service employers still want - people skills. They want their toilet cleaners and - floor sweepers to have people skills. They want them to - spend half their shift sitting through pointless - meetings. Thats the magic of nightshifts! Only freaks - and weirdos apply for nightshift and they have a high - turn over rate. All the people who call for pointless - meetings are asleep and you only ever have to talk to a - hand full of people. Do you know what I do with the - time saved not going to pointless meetings?

I hope to one day go self employmented to avoid - all the human bullshit. - </p> - - <h3>Revolution and nonhumanism</h3> - <p> - When I sit on my ass and think about all the shit going - on I often think about the song <i>The Revolution - Will Not be Televised</i> by Gil Scott-Heron. Then - I remember that even though I grew up in what many - call a very inclusive generation all you mother - fuckers treated me like shit! Thats because the - modern stage of inclusiveness <b>does not extend to - neurodivergents completely and does not extend to - nonhumans at all</b>. Think of it this way, the - american civil war got rid of legal slavery but was - quite limited, the civil right movement did a bit - more... same with how the lgbtq+ movement has - evoluted over the years. The problem is nonhumanism - is limited to just me and maybe a few others I dont - have the resources to track down (if you are one - feel free to send me a email or something) and even - than we wouldnt have any common ground except being - nonhuman. <br/><br/> I know revolution is not - perfect and I am willing to engage in pushing the - evolution so we at least get sometype of change but - I will let you know <b>its up to you to make - change</b>. I am in full support of modern - progressive movements even if I know they are - lacking something. Even than I dont have the power - to engage in revolution the sameway you can due to - the fact I am a nonhuman. I am not welcome in - social structures and only servce as a fly on the - wall, no one understands me when I talk, I have no - power what so ever to push a message across. As a - human you have special powers I couldnt even dream - of having. You can engage in those social - structures, get your fair share of message pushing - power. Even as small as it might seem to you as - someone without those powers I will let you know - its greater than you believe. Its a superpower! - <br/><br/> Message to my generation: even - though <b>you</b> treated me like shit I beg of you - to engage in progessive revolution in all the ways - I cant.

It gets even better, even if you do wanta fuck the + magic way smart people created plastic thingies to stop the people + making seeds from going into the human egg. The same smart people + also made pills and lots of other wonderful things to stop the pain + of creating humans and the suffering they will face when they are + pulled into this terrible world kicking and screaming.<br> + <br> + It gets worse: when people are stupid, poor, and in times of + terrible hardship they only ever <b>increase</b> the rate they fuck + the magic way and without seed stoppers. World War 4 could happen + and the birth rate would only go up. This creates more humans who + are forced to live in this shitty world.

This beautiful treatment + removes the unborn flesh of a human from its mother before its + anywhere close to consciousness, before it have had a taste for the + pain of the world.<br> + <br> + Christians view women as private property, people making machines, + personal maids, human sex toys... even though they have the same + human brain and are nearly just as dumb as men christians think the + idea that a women owns her own body is too much.

A message to the men reading this: the women in your + life will teach you things and help you develop as a person in ways + other men never will. Women make for the best comrades. As soon as + you make every interaction with women about weird horny stuff, + discrediting them for something... everything goes to waste. If your + a incel and blame women for everything sorry to break it to you but + it was other men that fucked you over not women. If your willing to + put those feelings aside the friendships you will gain with women as + time goes on will be much more rewarding than just fucking alot and + when the time finally comes for you sex will be a lot less awkward + and more personal and borderline spiritual.

No one quite agrees on even the smallest of details but + thats the beauty of it all. Right now lgbtq+ is still based in some + amount of social constructs and still a slave to some amount of + bullshit are society created but it will evolve, it will bring us + even more freedom... for that to happen you gotta accept the + movement even in its rough state and help it grow into something + greater. The narcissists controlling the system will feed you + talking points to stop you from helping the movement remove power + from the them. Dont fall for their bullshit they are just scared + that the more free we become the less we will support narcissist + bullshit.<br> + <br> + There is no scientific reason sex same relationship has to be taboo, + there is no scientific reason someone cant choose their own + pronouns, there is no scientific reason someone cant consent to + sugery to remove their <i>fuck organs</i> (no matter how harmful and + pointless some random study claims stopping them is against their + freedom and saving people from themsevles is a narcissist journy of + mental masturbation: not a heroic act), there is no scientific + reason there needs to be seprate mens and women bathrooms, there is + no scientific reason someone cant choose what labels they use to + describe themselves due to the fact <b>all language is human made + and completely socially constructed start to end</b>.

Some people have very little + and others quite a bit more. In rice school everyone is told to + plant a bit of their rice and save a bit for eating. For those who + barely even have enough to eat this sounds like crazy talk while for + others they grew up on a family farm that have been doing quite well + for ages. One day someone name Tod from a good family rice farm + finally goes out to start his own farm. Tod's family gives him a + nice big bag of fresh rice to use to start his own farm and he heads + out to find a good place for a rice field. While he is traveling he + quietly complains how heavy the bag is and even think a few things + "it would really hurt to be hit with a bag this size". He finally + finds a nice place for a new rice field but someone already got few + only seconds before he did. Tod notices they have a much smaller + liter bag than him so he walks up to them and bang! He fucking hits + them right in the head with his bag. He even dumps their whole bag + into his. This gives him a new idea: he starts hiding in a bush and + attacking anyone that comes to that spot and each time his bag gets + bigger and heavier. Soon its too heavy to even lift so now he + finally decides to plant some.<br> + <br> + Now Tod is faced with some issues: protecting the rice he cant carry + with him, balancing mananging a farm and attacking people... so he + decides to go to some poor children and very kindly offer them some + rice. He quickly wins over their trust and tells them he can get + them more rice if they work for them. He has all of them setup the + farm and start planting while he goes out to fucking hit more people + and steal their rice. Whenever he comes back he carefully one at a + one pulls one of the children aside to tell them he will give them a + raise if they report any stealing and if they steal they get knocked + out by the bag. A few get reported and knocked out until everyone + started truly fearing Tod.<br> + <br> + The ones who were known for always reporting got a few raises and + started staying by Tods side all the time. Tod put them in charge of + watching over things while they he was gone and even sent them out a + few times to knock people out for him. They always looked down on + everyone else and thought they got the good end of the deal. One day + one of them decided to use their high pay to start their own farm + and even knocked out some smaller targets aka kind of a downed + scaled version of what Tod was doing. When Tod found out this was + happening he had that person knock out by the heavest rice bag right + infront of everyone else on the farm. This was the first time when + of the higher ups even got knocked out and it completely changed + everything. Now it was clear no one was safe.<br> + <br> + As everyone learned who Tod was they would start running and as soon + as they learned he was in good enough shape to outrun them even + carring a large bag they would give up and drop their bag in fear of + getting hit. Sometimes he would find those same people days later + starving and they would finally give in and agree to be work on his + farm. Once he had enough workers to create an army he sent them to + take out an entire family farm and make it his own. After that he + didnt even have to take over family farms. They would agree to pay + tax in return for not getting taken over by his army. Tod even paid + the rice schools to only teach the things he wanted them to + teach.<br> + <br> + The end, <b>I dont fucking do happy endings!</b> I ask of you to + reflect on this story and think about are society. Think about all + the evil companies buying out smaller companies. Think about prices + going up faster than wages. Think about all the ways these big + coprations fuck us over. The ultra rich dont get to where they are + simply planting their money in investments and working hard to grow + their companies. Thats only part of the story. They handle their + money like a fucking weapon and use it the same way Tod used his + heavy bag of rice.</p> + <h3>Socialism in practice</h3> + <p>If reading the story of Tod is making you think of other ways + rice can be handled like community rice farms where everyones fair + share of work will keep things going but they can still make their + own on the side, rice market system and groups of people setup to + stop people like Tod from grow... and you compare these ideas and + thing how they could be created than you have the mind of a + socialist. If you look up to Tod as a great business man, think + "well, that is just the way things are", twist things up to think + Tod is somehow helping people by giving them jobs and feeding them + even though he quiet clearly just caused pain the whole time... than + get the fuck off my website you social darwinist! Thats right, + <b>socialism has never had any set in stone policy or economic + models</b>.

That is why Karl Marx + came up with a framework to change for your use instead of any set + in stone plan of action. What is why people like Stalin call + themselves a socialist yet are quite far seprated from the rest. + Just look at how much fucking infighting on the internet we have + just for an idea of how far seprated we can really be from each + other even with so many common goals.</p> + <h3>My travels</h3> + <p>I was raised conservative and left it behind when I discovered + they didnt really stand for freedom and truth, I went libertarian + until I discovered they also didnt stand for freedom and truth, I + went anarchist until I read a tiny bit Karl Marx and got caught up + with all the labels on the internet and didnt know what to call + myself; Finally, I was reborn a socialist when I rediscovered my + will to learn and come up with new ideas that been with me my entire + life but almost went away with all the effort school, mainstream + interenet, and society went through to try to distroy it.

Everything is built with + dogs in mind, jobs shifts are all planned around dog hours, the + restaurants serve dog food in dog propartions, the stores sell only + dog products, the toys are dog toys, the parks are designed for + dogs, the vets specialize in dogs, everyone talks with barks instead + of meows... If your a cat in that society you really gotta look out + for yourself because no one else can understand you even if they + pretend to. Everyone will give you advice that does not work.</p> + <h3>Employment and nonhumanism</h3> + <p>Nightshifts: the greatest blessing and curse. I am still getting + through school and lack any employment history as of writing this. + Most of the options for that are customer service jobs. When people + can barely understand you when you talk, you can only do one task at + a time, lack any people skills, need time to work on your + interests... that aint going to work. And to make it worse employers + discriminate against me. If you arent working customer service + employers still want people skills. They want their toilet cleaners + and floor sweepers to have people skills. They want them to spend + half their shift sitting through pointless meetings. Thats the magic + of nightshifts! Only freaks and weirdos apply for nightshift and + they have a high turn over rate. All the people who call for + pointless meetings are asleep and you only ever have to talk to a + hand full of people. Do you know what I do with the time saved not + going to pointless meetings? I do homework, read, take naps, and + work on this site! I love the outdoors and I get cold too easily to + go out there at night (I dont mind the dark) so I often wish I could + work days but with the no bullshit vibe of the night. I hope to one + day go self employmented to avoid all the human bullshit.</p> + <h3>Revolution and nonhumanism</h3> + <p>When I sit on my ass and think about all the shit going on I + often think about the song <i>The Revolution Will Not be + Televised</i> by Gil Scott-Heron. Then I remember that even though I + grew up in what many call a very inclusive generation all you mother + fuckers treated me like shit! Thats because the modern stage of + inclusiveness <b>does not extend to neurodivergents completely and + does not extend to nonhumans at all</b>. Think of it this way, the + american civil war got rid of legal slavery but was quite limited, + the civil right movement did a bit more... same with how the lgbtq+ + movement has evoluted over the years. The problem is nonhumanism is + limited to just me and maybe a few others I dont have the resources + to track down (if you are one feel free to send me a email or + something) and even than we wouldnt have any common ground except + being nonhuman.<br> + <br> + I know revolution is not perfect and I am willing to engage in + pushing the evolution so we at least get sometype of change but I + will let you know <b>its up to you to make change</b>. I am in full + support of modern progressive movements even if I know they are + lacking something. Even than I dont have the power to engage in + revolution the sameway you can due to the fact I am a nonhuman. I am + not welcome in social structures and only servce as a fly on the + wall, no one understands me when I talk, I have no power what so + ever to push a message across. As a human you have special powers I + couldnt even dream of having. You can engage in those social + structures, get your fair share of message pushing power. Even as + small as it might seem to you as someone without those powers I will + let you know its greater than you believe. Its a superpower!<br> + <br> + Message to my generation: even though <b>you</b> treated me like + shit I beg of you to engage in progessive revolution in all the ways + I cant. Dont be one of those gen-z trump supporters and dont stop at + voting blue either. The revolution will not be <s>televised</s> on + social media!</p><img src="images/lain.gif" alt="Lain"> + </td> + </tr> + </table> + </center> </body> </html> - diff --git a/reading_corner.html b/reading_corner.html index 2d20a25..25d1d86 100644 --- a/reading_corner.html +++ b/reading_corner.html @@ -1,209 +1,182 @@ <!DOCTYPE html> <html> - <head> - <title>Reading corner</title> - -<style> + <title>Reading corner</title> + <style> -body { + body { color: black; background-image: url('images/reading_background.jpg'); -} - -table { - color: black; - background-color: #bebebe; - margin-top: 10px; - margin-bottom: 10px; - margin-left: 10px; - margin-right: 10px; -} - -</style> - + } + + table { + color: black; + background-color: #bebebe; + margin-top: 10px; + margin-bottom: 10px; + margin-left: 10px; + margin-right: 10px; + } + + </style> </head> - <body> - <a href="index.html"><img src="images/back_home.png" alt="Back to home page"/></a> - - <center> - <table border="1" width="60%"> - <tr> - <td> - <h2>Why do a boring old person thing like read?</h2> - <p> - I use to dislike reading because I thought reading was for boring old people. - It turned out I was correct, reading is for boring old people.

When - getting ready for church I always saw my dad watching - either Futurama or monke evolution documentary. It was - no fair. I had to wear uncomfy clothes and go to boring - old person building while my dad got to instead watch - Futurama and silly monke show. When I asked my mom she - always said "dad has to go work to make money". When we - came back he was still at home. Now that I am an adult - I stay home to watch Futurama and silly monke show - instead of going to church. Thats why <b>you should - show your children Futurama at a young age</b>. Look at - me, I watched it at 6 and I turned out fine. - </p> - - <h3>Venture Bros</h3> - <p> - One day I realized I am a lot like Dr.Venture.

I am not a dad but if I was - I would be a single dad who is a terrible father just - like Dr.Venture.

You don't want to sign up. Thats - what the show is about.

Anyways the show is - known for its fan service. For you good Christians out - there fan service means the writters gave the fans the - holy service of God. Neon Gensis Evangelion is a very - Christian show. You can tell just by the name! Sorry - about the sinful words. Just need to get the sinful - teens to watch so they can turn to God. Kids these - days am I right? - </p> - - <h3>Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water</h3> - <p> - The budget feels a bit more shitty even for the - standards of anime that makes it to my list yet Nadia: - The Secret of Blue Water is one of the best anime of - all times. The anime is about some liberal - vegetarian, Nadia who is the daughter of a retirement - aged trust fund kid who is at war with a bunch of band - kids who created a Ancient Alien cult. Nadia and her - annoying french boyfriend got caught up in the whole - mess with the band kids who have the ego of a average - jojo bad guy even though they have the aim of a storm - trooper. There is a stupid funny cat and a evil lady - with super stereotypical hench men so I give this anime - 9 blue waters out of 10.5. - </p> - - <h3>Fooly Cooly</h3> - <p> - Also known as FLCL. FLCL was made after Neon Gensis - Evangelion as an unrelated follow up. Neon Gensis - Evangelion required too much thinking and the writers - wanted a little simple stupido show so they created - FLCL.

I have already killed one - or two and ate its guts infront of you just to show you - I mean business. They are giving you the eyes.

I love animals and value their life - over human life but when you aren't watching Dead - Leaves something needs to happen!!! - </p> - - <h3>Studio Ghibli movies in general</h3> - <p> - Studio Ghibli is the fucking best. Their artwork, story - telling, character design... all way out classes - studios like disney. Next time you want to chill and - watch a movie go watch something like Princess Mononoke - or Howl's Moving Castle instead of another mother - fucking Marvel movie or shit like that. Studio Ghibli - makes true art with jaw droppingly beautiful backdrops - and well made characters with realistic design and - realistic lifelike interactions with one - another. American studios spend billions on cheaply - made soulless CGI made by artists who are kept on a - short leash and the stories are just war - propaganda. They use propagand to glorify violence to - sell war to you. If you want violence go watch Princess - Mononoke. Nothing about it is glorified. It shows you - war is fucking bloody and terrible and not something - you wanta fool around with. btw don't get me wrong - about CGI. CGI is a tool and can be used to make art - and there are plenty of CGI artists out there who are - skilled at their craft and can create beautiful - things. But when your keeping your artists on a leash, - cutting costs everywhere, and putting CGI that looks - like its from a OG xbox game into a billin dollar film - you aren't making art your selling a cheap plastic - product for high return. - </p> - - <h3>Kino's Journey</h3> - <p> - Dam, I wanta live a life like Kino. Traveling country - to country on a cool as fuck talking motorcycle. Only - staying at each place for 3 days to enjoy it but not - long enough to get too attatched. Even with very little - money for much, trade school to get done, and - disabiliting burnout waiting around ever corner I wanta - get a motorcycle and get out of here. Than on the other - side all that is there is a politically unstable world - waiting. One where the only way to make money is ass - kissing (not the kinky fun kind), borders making - stupido rules about who can come in and go out and for - all long and why, homelessness is outlawed and - systematically made as painful as possible... even - possitive change isn't an opinion. The closest I have - to a place to be free is on my computer and even that - is under attack by the system. - </p> - - <h3>Gunbuster</h3> - <p> - Its like Neon Genesis Evangelion but you gender and - personality swap all the characters. Also an older and - rough around the edges version of Neon Genesis - Evangelion. Do check it out now anyways! - </p> - - <h3>No.6</h3> - <p> - A lesser known anime. By ex told me about it. Its a gay - ass show. Aka I totally dig it. It as no right to be as - much of a banger as it is for being so helplessly - underrated. - </p> - - <h3>Space Dandy</h3> - <p> - This is a funky ass anime. No, <b>it is not like Cowboy - Bebop</b>. It has some cross over and picks fun at - Cowboy Bebop quite a bit but for the most part it is - its own anime. This show gets overlooked way more often - than it has the right to be. - </p> - - <h3>Paranoia Agent</h3> - <p> - A kid goes around hitting people with a baseball - bat. My kind of show. - </p> - - <h3>Stiens;Gate</h3> - <p> - John Titor is so fucking cool he got his own fucking - anime. This is a fucking great anime and you should - fucking watch it. Its about fucking time travel. - </p> - - <h3>Gurren Lagann</h3> - <p> - Another mecha anime from studio Gainax. I fucking swear - I could make an entire website on just studio Gainax - mecha animes. Unlike Neon Gensis Evangelion Gurren - Lagann it isn't deep enough to actually care about what - piloting mecha mentally does to a teen. It goes all - deck in on <b>big fucking mecha fuck ya!</b> And you - know sometimes a person just needs some <b>fuck ya!</b> - in their life and this is the perfect anime for that. - Like FLCL everything is a cock joke. In many ways - Gurren Lagann is the child of the terrible time FLCL - and Neon Gensis Evangelion hooked up for a night. You - should count yourself luckly you weren't around when - that happened. - </p> - - <h3>Hunter X Hunter</h3> - <p> - This anime changed my mind about not watching anime - because its stupido dweeb shit. I still think anime is - stupido dweeb shit but I am a stupido dweeb so I fuck - with that. You have to watch a few episodes to get into - it but once you do you will be printing out your own - hunter licences at home and giving them to your stupido - dweeb friends! - </p> - - <h3>Erased</h3> - <p> - Erased is one of those shows your stupido dweeb friends - are a few episodes in and they ask you not to spoil - it. And you go ahead and bluntly spoil the entire - mother fucking thing! Am I the only one that does that? - Well anyways - <b>the killer is the teacher!</b> - </p> - - <h3>Attack on Titan</h3> - <p> - Every Joe and his dog have seen this. Only stupido - dweebs have actually finished. it. For you Joe's and - his dogs out there Attack on Titan is actually a mecha - anime and <b>the titans are mecha!</b> This anime is - actually quite quite simalar to Neon Gensis - Evangelion. A lot of the same vibe and themes are - hidding in plain site. Can I go 2 seconds without - bringing up Neon Gensis Evangelion? Yes, I can go 3 if - I really try. - </p> - - <h3>The Promised Neverland</h3> - <p> - I am sorry about spoiling Erased and Attack on - Titan. Well anyways <b>the children are food for - beasts!</b> The second season is quite hated. Yes, it - does suck but if you keep your exceptations low you - will at least be able to enjoy it a tiny bit. - </p> - - <h3>The Disastrous Life of Saiki K</h3> - <p> - Watch it now. Its a relatable anime rofl. Saiki is - autistic af just like me fr. If you ever sit around - and wonder "what should I be doing with my time?" the - answer is watching Saiki K. Should you do your taxes? - Nope. Should you do your chores? Nope. Should you do - your job? Nope. Should you go outside? only if you can - watch Saiki K out. <b>Saiki K is life, Saiki is - love.</b> - </p> - - <h3>Mob Psycho 100</h3> - <p> - Its about a weird ass autistic kid who is powerful af - just like Saiki K. He works for a scam artist who he - believes is also fucking powerful. Its a requirement - you watch this. Kittens will die if you don't. Do you - really want cute ittle ity baby kittens to die? - </p> - - <h3>One Punch Man</h3> - <p> - The same mother fuckers who made Mob Psycho 100 also - made this master piece. Go watch it I will fucking kill - you in one punch if you don't. btw the anime is about a - dude who can kill anyone in one punch. - </p> - - <h3>Carlotte</h3> - <p> - Another anime about people with special powers. So - OG. No one have ever done that. Well anyways the real - question is "is the dam thing any good?!" and the - answer is yes. With anime it can really go either way - quickly. You should watch it before I blood rape you - with my mind powers. - </p> - </td> - </tr> - - <tr> - <td> - <h2 id="movies">Movies</h2> - <p> - I am more of a tv show person and really don't watch - movies much anymore. Here is a list of movies I like I - can actually remember. - </p> - - <h3>Labyrinth</h3> - <p> - It always pains me to learn there are people who havent - seen this masterpiece. I grew up watching this movie on - a cheap VHS from a thrift store. I rate Labyrinth the - number one greatest movie of all time. Fun fact: David - Bowie just walked onto the set already looking like - that, no makeup artists required. How do I know this? - I just do. <br/><br/> I have a theory this movie turns - people bisexual. Just look at the statistics I got from - a trust worthy source: - <img src="images/bisexual_rates.jpg" alt="Bisexual - rates"/> - </p> - - <h3>pi1998</h3> - <p> - A masterpiece of a film. It takes a more slow - analytical method to unfolding the plot. May people - dislike the high constrast black and white but I - personally really dig it. Even with a low budget it - turned out to be a masterpiece. The black and white - film, the simple everyday settings, the simple yet - detailed character interactions, more introverted - outlook... all sets the mood perfectly. Just the little - careful things the main character Max does throughout - the film really uncovers a more small detailed world - like those pictures of bugs and grass outclose that - shows all the detail in everyday things we tend to - overlook. All of this is than constrasted by very - extreme moments like when Max was held at gun point and - at the end when <b>he drills a hole in his - head</b>. That was a spoiler, hope you see it already - (: - </p> - - <h3>The Emperor's New Groove</h3> - <p> - Even though disney sucks, have always sucked, I still - like a select few disney things. The Emperor's new - Groove is one of those selected works. Not going to lie - I haven't seen it for a while but I remember it pretty - well. disney wishes they never made it so it has to be - good! Anyway fuck this is one of those movies I watched - like a million times when I was a little tiny ass - fucker and its chaos helped shape me. Ye, so veri good - movy. - </p> - - <h3>The Matrix</h3> - <p> - I kind of didn't want to put this movie here because - whats the point but I need to rant about something. All - of you are misusing the term redpill. People like - mother fucking andrew tate are telling you how to take - the redpill. <b>Treating women like sex toys, starting - a shitty business, being a alpha male... is not how you - take the redpill!</b> All those things are social - constructs enforced by culture and society. I will rant - about this more somewhere else later. Back to the - actual movie. The Matrix is fire. You already know that - though because you have already watched it. Thats why - rating these kinds of movies is pointless unless you - can turn it into a mad man rant. - </p> - </td> - </tr> - </table> - </center> + <a href="index.html"><img src="images/back_home.png" alt= + "Back to home page"></a> + <center> + <table border="1" width="60%"> + <tr> + <td> + <h2>Why watch dweeb shit when there are useful things to do?</h2> + <p>Because fuck you, dweeb shit is the best way to waste time!</p> + </td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td> + <h2>Where do I watch X show?</h2> + <p>You pirate it!

Everything you watch as + an outside eavesdropping on someones trip. Each episode is different + from each other with a big ass money wrench thrown into any patterns + you might see. Its the text book example of an unlinear story. When + you really watch <b>get off your phone</b> you will find meaning in + all the layers and everything will make sense only for you to learn + it was all for nothing. Well anyways his show was <b>removed from + Adult Swim for being too weird</b> so thats within itself a reason + to watch this show.</p> + <h3>Moral Orel</h3> + <p>Just a sweet little claymation about a good little child that + likes to go to church. Could <i>NEVER</i> have a deep dark plot that + will make even the strongest of us cry, right??? No way could a show + sooo <i>very innocent</i> ever be <b>removed from Adult Swim for + being too dark</b>.</p> + <h3>Futurama</h3> + <p>I first watched this show when I was ~6 years old. Bender was + always my favorite character and formed the backbone of my morals + and view on humanity. When getting ready for church I always saw my + dad watching either Futurama or monke evolution documentary. It was + no fair. I had to wear uncomfy clothes and go to boring old person + building while my dad got to instead watch Futurama and silly monke + show. When I asked my mom she always said "dad has to go work to + make money". When we came back he was still at home. Now that I am + an adult I stay home to watch Futurama and silly monke show instead + of going to church. Thats why <b>you should show your children + Futurama at a young age</b>. Look at me, I watched it at 6 and I + turned out fine.</p> + <h3>Venture Bros</h3> + <p>One day I realized I am a lot like Dr.Venture. He is a INTP, a + scientist that puts his work above the value of human life and + creates weird ass shit, likes prog rock and has a record collection + I approve of, is a single dad and terrible father... I am not a dad + but if I was I would be a single dad who is a terrible father just + like Dr.Venture. Either that or the gay dad with an ex wife that + turned lesbian and a kid in special ed who when harrassed by + christians looks them in the eyes for the first and last time and + says "fuck you faggot".</p> + <h3>South Park</h3> + <p>While I do think some of the shows written on this did a much + better job on writing and mixing it with good humor those shows are + S tier. South Park is still A tier. Even if I can pick at their + writing style all I want its still way better than anything disney + ever put out, plus the real reason most of us watch South Park is + for its sense of humnor. You may say South Park sucks and is stupido + but you watch it anyways. You also say mcdonalds is gross but you + eat there anyways. <b>You know who you are.</b> Also Wendy is my + favorite character. Anyone who beats up Cartman has my respect.</p> + </td> + </tr> + <tr> + <td> + <h2 id="anime">Anime</h2> + <h3>Ebichu</h3> + <p>Ebichu is a innocent little anime about a little cute hamster + named Ebichu. Ebichu is a maid who works very hard to keep her owner + happy. Very innocent and g-rated. You should show it to your + children. The hamster and the owner are good Christians. Its a + beautiful anime. It will teach your children good Christian values. + I use to be a sinner. I believed in sinful things like Darwin and + science and I engaged in evil homosexual activities. All thanks to + Ebichu I am now a good Christian who believes God created everything + and holly sex can only happen between a husband and wife to create + children.</p> + <h3>Neon Genesis Evangelion</h3> + <p><b>Big ass mecha fighting big ass mecha aliens!</b> Where do I + sign up?! You don't want to sign up. Thats what the show is about. + Instead of being big mecha fuck ya the show goes deep into the + mental damage it causes to 14 old years making them be mecha pilots + with the weight of humanity on their backs. Anyways the show is + known for its fan service. For you good Christians out there fan + service means the writters gave the fans the holy service of God. + Neon Gensis Evangelion is a very Christian show. You can tell just + by the name! Sorry about the sinful words. Just need to get the + sinful teens to watch so they can turn to God. Kids these days am I + right?</p> + <h3>Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water</h3> + <p>The budget feels a bit more shitty even for the standards of + anime that makes it to my list yet Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water + is one of the best anime of all times. The anime is about some + liberal vegetarian, Nadia who is the daughter of a retirement aged + trust fund kid who is at war with a bunch of band kids who created a + Ancient Alien cult. Nadia and her annoying french boyfriend got + caught up in the whole mess with the band kids who have the ego of a + average jojo bad guy even though they have the aim of a storm + trooper. There is a stupid funny cat and a evil lady with super + stereotypical hench men so I give this anime 9 blue waters out of + 10.5.</p> + <h3>Fooly Cooly</h3> + <p>Also known as FLCL. FLCL was made after Neon Gensis Evangelion as + an unrelated follow up. Neon Gensis Evangelion required too much + thinking and the writers wanted a little simple stupido show so they + created FLCL. You can play the FLCL video game <a href= + "https://silverwaregames.itch.io/firestarter" target= + "_blank">here</a>.</p> + <h3>Serial Experiments Lain</h3> + <p>Its a 90s anime that many claimed predicted the modern internet. + If you dig around these kinds of small as ass personal websites you + will come across Lain references alot. I fucking swear there isn't a + single neocities user that doesn't watch Lain. Its worth the hype so + check it out now! (thats a threat). Lain, I am Lain. You are Lain. + Lets all love Lain. Lainy Lainy Lain. I use to think I was named + Nathan than I learned I am actually Lain. You are also named + Lain.</p><img src="images/lain.gif" alt="Lain"> + <h3>Dead Leaves</h3> + <p>This one is a short film. Some of the most fast paced film in + existance. Its a true masterpiece and a total trip. Not only do you + need to watch it but you have to watch it. I am holding puppies and + kittens at gun point telling you to go watch it. I have already + killed one or two and ate its guts infront of you just to show you I + mean business. They are giving you the eyes. Telling you with their + geist to go watch it because their lives are on the line. I love + animals and value their life over human life but when you aren't + watching Dead Leaves something needs to happen!!!</p> + <h3>Studio Ghibli movies in general</h3> + <p>Studio Ghibli is the fucking best. Their artwork, story telling, + character design... all way out classes studios like disney. Next + time you want to chill and watch a movie go watch something like + Princess Mononoke or Howl's Moving Castle instead of another mother + fucking Marvel movie or shit like that. Studio Ghibli makes true art + with jaw droppingly beautiful backdrops and well made characters + with realistic design and realistic lifelike interactions with one + another. American studios spend billions on cheaply made soulless + CGI made by artists who are kept on a short leash and the stories + are just war propaganda. They use propagand to glorify violence to + sell war to you. If you want violence go watch Princess Mononoke. + Nothing about it is glorified. It shows you war is fucking bloody + and terrible and not something you wanta fool around with. btw don't + get me wrong about CGI. CGI is a tool and can be used to make art + and there are plenty of CGI artists out there who are skilled at + their craft and can create beautiful things. But when your keeping + your artists on a leash, cutting costs everywhere, and putting CGI + that looks like its from a OG xbox game into a billin dollar film + you aren't making art your selling a cheap plastic product for high + return.</p> + <h3>Kino's Journey</h3> + <p>Dam, I wanta live a life like Kino. Traveling country to country + on a cool as fuck talking motorcycle. Only staying at each place for + 3 days to enjoy it but not long enough to get too attatched. Even + with very little money for much, trade school to get done, and + disabiliting burnout waiting around ever corner I wanta get a + motorcycle and get out of here. Than on the other side all that is + there is a politically unstable world waiting. One where the only + way to make money is ass kissing (not the kinky fun kind), borders + making stupido rules about who can come in and go out and for all + long and why, homelessness is outlawed and systematically made as + painful as possible... even possitive change isn't an opinion. The + closest I have to a place to be free is on my computer and even that + is under attack by the system.</p> + <h3>Gunbuster</h3> + <p>Its like Neon Genesis Evangelion but you gender and personality + swap all the characters. Also an older and rough around the edges + version of Neon Genesis Evangelion. Do check it out now anyways!</p> + <h3>No.6</h3> + <p>A lesser known anime. By ex told me about it. Its a gay ass show. + Aka I totally dig it. It as no right to be as much of a banger as it + is for being so helplessly underrated.</p> + <h3>Space Dandy</h3> + <p>This is a funky ass anime. No, <b>it is not like Cowboy + Bebop</b>. It has some cross over and picks fun at Cowboy Bebop + quite a bit but for the most part it is its own anime. This show + gets overlooked way more often than it has the right to be.</p> + <h3>Paranoia Agent</h3> + <p>A kid goes around hitting people with a baseball bat. My kind of + show.</p> + <h3>Stiens;Gate</h3> + <p>John Titor is so fucking cool he got his own fucking anime. This + is a fucking great anime and you should fucking watch it.
