Test it out, feel the grace of its energy

So, not much of significance to report these days (the testing program will begin tomorrow). That information, in itself was of little significance. From now on, no insignificant news will be reported, not even the existence of such news. Are we clear on that? Okay.

Today I had a long conversation with my dog about old records, finances, and selected philisophical topics (like the one above, which I had with myself just now). I also insulted her tumor. She doesn't care so much as I feed her. So... ummm... yeah, I got in a meditative state earlier this afternoon by looking at the texture on the wall in a particular light. That was pretty good for me I think, as it gave my mind a little extra time-out to catch up with the extra capsules I took this morning. Now, conversations with animals or inanimate objects are one thing, but reporting them via sort of media is absolute absurdity. From now on, there will be no more of this shit. Understood? Good.

I made somebody watch Gummo recently. Nobody these days has an appreciation for reality, dark as it may be. I understand. I totally forgot about all of the cat torture and murder. Now, I say reality, but of course we all have an image of "reality" in television. Gummo is more of a fictional, monotone, depiction of reality, that couldn't have been produced much better in my mind. Yeah, it doesn't have a plot, yeah, it could be argued that it focuses on disorder and negative actions and qualities. Of course, those are all more or less qualitative judgements made by the viewer, and for me, inserting a linear plot and balloons and monkey in clown suits actually is much more upsetting to me. Maybe I just like mindless chaos (which makes me think, so really it's not mindless now is it). I'll tell you what's mindless- reality shows on TV. Celebrity Skating, American Idol, Celebrity Adultress (next season), America's next top Asian, etc., etc. American Idol for example - hey, I have an idea, let's perpetuate people's beliefs of who geeks are! Okay, I'm actually all for that. Celebrity Skating though? Christ. He said that the apocaplyse will come alright. That's it! No more discussion of reality depictions or actual reality will be discussed here. No more! Do I have to repeat myself?! No? Good.

So, we're now left with... nothing. Nothing shall ever be reported here again. You can post pictures, but they can't have an intended meaning. All thought work will be done at home in the confines of your tiny, dark, damp room with your cat. I think we're clear on that, right? Good.

was Gummo about... entropy? maybe it wasn't *about* that, but it *was* that.

you want to see an EXCELLENT movie? "Rize." it's a documentary about a guy named "tommy the clown" who invented a form of dancing in the hiphop community that helped the kids in Watts L.A. you know that phrase "we gonna party like it's your birthday"? well, i'm starting to think that he invented that, too.
also, no cats were eaten in this film.

reality shows are pretty much trash, but have you ever seen "intervention"? it's on AandE and it's trashy i suppose, but gripping psychodrama mostly, in which people who are drug addicts (mostly) get intervened upon.

i shall continue to post about nothing, don't worry about that. they can't take that away from me.

I've seen intervention but I don't like the intervention, just the shit that leads up to it. I talked with my dog about this, seriously, don't you care?

oh yes, i do care about the fact that you shared it with your doggie in a chat. she told me something, though: she wishes that you'd respect her personal space more.
