  1. perfection

    yes. but without the meme.
  2. The decline and eventual fall of the USA as world superpower?

    repeating history is NOT the answer. Pardon my french, but you are a fucktard if you think giving up on change is the answer, or "history said we failed before, so we will fail again" that's fucktard caliber thinking. I know you aint stupid. But you seem to suggest we should bend over, stick our heads between our legs, and kiss our asses goodbye... I think i'd rather futilely fight for freedom from this cycle than lay down and accept it as fate. kindly quit contributing to repeating the cycle. please.
  3. The decline and eventual fall of the USA as world superpower?

    if it ends at all. people are too stupid to revolt.
  4. hey! the world is in a pretty difficult place right now, fewer and fewer people every day are capable of dealing with daily life! And rather than working together to find a solution... We have a fucked up "blame meme" that encourages you/us to ignore this plight?! Thats fucked up.
  5. The MCO is Taoist fundamentalism

    I'm a fundamentalist gamer. And a fundamentalist breather, but not as hardcore as some MCO breathers But i am first and foremost a fundamentalist thinker. And i think your thoughts are only half complete.
  6. "God" as a name is a lie, the greatest trick and whatnot. For "god" is a title, for the deities whom have necessary hands in the maintenance of the functionality of reality; personified via mysticism as such the god of commerce, goddesses of fertility, and so forth. The all encompasing infinitesimal omniversal unity of "God" is not personable, cannot be named, and may or may not be the yin or yang of Tao; it cannot be known. Worship, praise, honor. These things are reserved only for the unspeakable unknowable immutable ever-present truth. Not for persons, places, or things we can discuss or refer to.
  7. First step on the longest road.

    hmm im a little envious. i cant learn from internet, i need consistent immersion. that's not exactly something i know how to find.
  8. Manners

    Expecting respect? I think you are forgetting that we are all children and prone to err. Expectation of manners and politeness is too selfish to be of benefit to potential learning if people are not given a chance in the first of places on account of their aesthetic appearances, or lack thereof. Appearances are all manners are; black skin versus white skin, blond hair versus auburn. Do we really need to place emphasis on the surface appearances rather than the deeper and meaningful reality?
  9. Random floater ads

    got disconnected while typing it out, then lost the message... long story short: tooltips pop up when you hover your cursor over links and such... I'm getting random ads popping up at random when the cursor rests in whatever "just the right spot" is. some ads are article-looking, and some are just a picture.
  10. Random floater ads

    woe is this world we create every day... for the last 10,000 years...
  11. Tin Yat Taoism

    oh wow, you werent joking about eye opening.
  12. Art As A Spiritual Quest.

    Worth 1000 The young and innocent child grips a dog fiercely with protective adamance. The woman showing clarity of eyes and k/gnowing of truth in Love, communication, and being. The dog is as a wolf, seen by the ignorant eyes of the civilized - who think as though to "know better" than the child than to "coddle such a mangy wolf as that vicious beast!" in spite of evidence to the contrary The Aquarian gaze which pierces your intentions and sees through you... just waiting for an expected approach.
  13. Haiku Chain

    Dissolve your view now Watching endless sprites sparkle "Electricity"
  14. Random floater ads

    Is this literal, for serious, or are you being full of innuendo? WATER LEAK and FIRE HEAT im too tired to deal with this shit.
  15. Haiku Chain

    (maybe )
  16. What are you listening to?

    you evil, disgusting, monsterous... er... monster!
  17. Dirty Little Secrets about almost EVERYTHING

    .... and im WRONG to have violent and rageful feelings and thoughts and desires toward the "innocent" civilized world?! What is wrong with this scenario? OH I KNOW, NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT!
  18. right brain and left brain

    The PROBLEM is that we are not focusing on integtating HUMANITY with nature! we are all already one. and yet we work so hard at being apart from nature! Left versus right brain is a distraction compared to humane versus civil.
  19. Haiku Chain

    that's one smelly mate never consistent showers... But: A waterfall.
  20. Families: Privilege for the rich?

    http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2393694/Is-marriage-rich-people-How-tying-knot-having-children-marker-middle-class-status.html Ever since i was a young teenager, the financial atmosphere has been a fear of mine, and a mind-domninating concern. Ever since i was 13 years old i have been trying to "solve" the puzzle that is life: "How do i grow up, take care of myself, raise a family, set a good example, and be a good person?" The answer is pretty pathetic... the fact is, i can't. I cant afford it. If i want to be a good person and set a good example, i have to be a/the Buddha. So i can kiss my personal goals goodbye. Or i can seek to reach my goals, but i will have to pay taxes and contribute to the "necessary evils" of society, so i cant set a good example, but maybe i can have the things i want. Well some of them... like junkfood and pointless trinkets. if i want those things, they are within reach. I might be able to take care of a spouse and children if i was lucky enough to meet someone who was comfortable living homeless in the street, or in a cardboard box. Or if living with my parents/family wasnt a social stigma. But let's face facts: No one wants to commit themselves to another person if that person is not evidently the sole proprietor of their own life and the means to maintain that life... And in an economic arena, no one holds propriety over their own lives! Therefore, only the rich and elite have any privilege to marry or breed. the rest of us are begging for scraps, praying that life wont be perpetual suffering.
  21. Families: Privilege for the rich?

    Your words do not encourage compliance or nonviolence in my heart, Drew. You are packing and priming some very volatile stuff in here. PLEASE, i beg you to offer solutions to all of this, lest i say "fuck it" and really follow through with my misery! I'm dying to live my own life - not to contribute to the status quo. Everything you've said here, suggests in my hear that i could just as well watch a meteorite the size of Alaska collide with the Earth as i could Love my own children, should i ever be so lucky. Oh, yeah, that's right, the nightmare is not over, this is still happening. Please, oh please tell me i can DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS! I dont want to hear another bandaid. i demand cure.
  22. attachments to the negative feelings associated with failure would be the weakness... I dont know what im talking about; still learning
  23. Families: Privilege for the rich?

    i bet thats long distance too... Me and phones do not get along... im sure it does not apply in this case, but the instinctual aversion to phones comes from my inability to communicate over them without every other word being "huh?". So... i have an ingrained avoidance for phones... hell, im even (PROBABLY) the only person in my own age range (in america) who doesnt own a cellphone.
  24. Families: Privilege for the rich?

    My Qi Gong is weak then, huh? Oh well, guess there are no solutions after all. All this bitching and complaining for nothing; no ethics, no morality... just a planet full of pathetic experiences.
  25. What are you listening to?

    Some of the darkest, meanest, best heavy metal i have ever felt...
