Friends in Low Places...

So there I was wandering aimlessly around the Facebook as usual last night when I stumbled across this.

Now then, crazy as it sounds, it gave me an idea...

What if we could set up a U.N. organization that makes microloans to citizens of developing countries directly from the World Bank?

Basically the sane thing Kiva is doing, but on the ultimate international, goodwill, 'save the world' level.

I sounds crazy, but if I ran the world...9/10 of the problems I see could easily be fixed. On a slightly related note...WTF is this?

Do other countries have this same problem with such low-intellectual performance meeting such socially destructive lustful behavior?

How's that working out? Granted, it tortures me just to read the back of L.A. Weekly or watch porn and see people whoring themselves out...but come the fuck on. Really?

Boss King? Really?

Brace yourselves...then read this.

Then watch this. (If you already have, just re-watch it as needed until it sinks in.)

I realize none of these are technically my problems to worry about, but when I see glaring problems...because they are blatantly thrown in from of me, I typically automatically start devising solutions whether I want to or not...and between the crap getting thrown at me on TV and the crap getting thrown in front of me on Facebook and online...God help me...and since God is 'us'...I think we can do better as a species.

If you were God, what would you do? Count on the monkey-like humans in high places to solve the problems? With the way the current system is designed? It is literally not the 'leaders' job to actually worry about saving the future of human civilization on this planet, noooo...they are too worried about money.

The irony of course is they already have so much of it compared to most they should be ashamed for behaving so selfishly...but that's not most human behavior, and in the meantime the current ruling system is designed to condition the opposite human behavior.

Sigh.

Meh.

Well, I figured I'd throw it out there.

I've already started dreaming up my '1' branding campaign...how long it will take to make reality match the 'visionary' '1'?...that I can't tell you.

Sorry for getting sidetracked by the girl...I thought she might have been sent as the catalyst/fuel for my 'ideological rocket' I built over the last few years...but between her reality and mine and the Facebook 'interference'...I don't even know what to believe at this point.

In other political news I haven't been paying attention to...

Healthcare reform?

Yeah, we need it.

Breeding licenses?

Yeah, we need them.

F*ck it...use my own family as an example. Hanging out with my half-sister and her offspring yesterday underscored that point in a frightening way. It's nothing personal, it's just, she should NOT have had kids in the context she did...and watching the domino effect of f*cked up parental role models and circumstance is hard for someone like me to watch.

Bringing kids into this world in a non-stable environment should be a crime...but instead we actually reward the f*cked up behavior and welcome more problems into our society with things like welfare. I'm not saying we shouldn't have compassion for our fellow humans, I'm saying we should have the upmost compassion for them and the rest of society by designing and implementing intelligent rules that encourage and reward the 'right', responsible behavior...not the 'other' WTF shit I see far too often.

I wonder if and how much the government has supported 'Boss King' in his lifetime...that's where I start asking questions about where we are as a society outside of the relatively-insulated class system.

There are so many amazing and 'normal', kind, hard-working, loving people in the world...why do we continue to tolerate such f*cked up behavior from some?

It's all relative...but just watch...with Google-type technology I'll be able to measure and graph this shit one day...and maybe the world will wake up and take evasive action before it's too late and we've crossed a very ugly tipping point.

Hope everyone is having a Super Sunday!

Talk to some people...get back to me.

Carry on.

;)

P.S. While driving to the beach this morning I passed a crowd of people in a park adjacent from the beach. They were surrounding a statue of Mary standing in what appeared to be a sea shell. I thought, wow, that's interesting. I wish I could believe in things that completely only make sense in an imaginary way too. And it once again dawned on me that the modern-day human condition is ironically still one of MASS DELUSION dating back millenniums. Talk about living in the Dark Ages. I've been tortured by this understanding and my church experience as a child my entire life. It imposed a moral belief system that I actually believed in...only to experience other people using it as complete hypocrites. Then realizing the entire storyline is completely insane but believed by so many in the world... But insane compared to what? Yeah, I know. Crazy people and b.s. everywhere in God's name when God = The Truth? How unholy is that? What's the point? Where is reason? Where is logic? Where is honesty? Where is understanding the world in which you are blessed enough to live? Can we not mix believing in some 'Divine Power' with a bit more common sense? Just so I can have a 'group belief option' or two that don't test my sanity? Jesus says hi. Can we seriously not do much better? I can.

P.P.S. Bonus blast from the past to add some REAL light to the conversation. Push the button --> 'X' Now all we need do is analyze peoples' words and in comparison to the reason they say them.

P.P.P.S. Bonus bonus. --> 'V' Something I stumbled across while searching for that previous article I referenced.

Addendum: Damn. See, I told you so.
