I refuse to go into Full Panic Mode, as prescribed by our illegal government. I simply refuse. You know, Bowling For Columbine was right: The thing that sets us apart from other nations and what makes us so violent and out of control is our willingness to submit to panic and fear at the slightest notion. Triple-lock the doors. Watch the nightly local news, where the top stories are always murder and mayhem. I simply refuse to buy into this shit and run around like fucking Chicken Little. Sorry.

Anyway. Today is rainy. I’m starting a self-taught Javascript course, which should be cool. Last night I dyed my hair a dark cherry-tinted brown and I love it. Later I dreamed about riding on Muni through narrow streets. I wonder why I dream about riding trains and buses so much. What does it all MEAN, MAN?

Tonight we will hopefully get around to watching my entry for Scariest Movie Ever: The Shining.

    Full Panic Mode

    Perhaps the real issue is that “they” DON’T have control over their world. I.E., they are not God nor can they know what God’s will is. But that doesn’t stop them from trying to BE in control. And if not really know the way things will be pretend that you do, and then Shazam, self fulfilling prophecy.Mom

    P.S.: How do I get a user name and password?

        Did you see Leonard’s quote from Goerring today? I don’t think that sets us apart from other countries, I think it’s sadly human. But then I didn’t see the BFC movie yet.

          You should really see it, Liz. Made a lot of excellent arguments.

          Kind of reminds me of that quote some bonehead dad made at that CO. school shooting a few weeks ago: “We’re on the brink of war right now, and these kids think guns are the way to solve their problems.” Which I am sure he said with absolutely no irony.
