So I was watching a “Desperate Housewives” inspired show made in Austria called “Vorstadtweiber”, I don’t know if I enjoy seeing rich assholes being rich assholes.
Actually I don’t. I wish Germany or/and Austria had an anime-like industry. Need the D-Anime.
One of the reasons I am so alarmist about right wing trends is the fact that Germany was transformed so quickly to Hitler’s regime of terror and extermination.
I love “from the hip” photography and my smartphone is such a great way to always have a camera in my pocket when I want to snap something.
Been feeling more shutter-happy lately again.
Brought to you by our corporate overlords.
I was indoctrinated by Star Trek as a child!
I must help unite the peoples of earth, create utopia, and prevent world war three.
They are good ideas! So what if it isn’t original!
At least I didn’t copy anything in my life from Grand Theft Auto or Cannon Fodder and their ilk.
There isn’t enough time to enjoy everything, I want to read, see, and play more than I have time to.
My father is adopted, so I often wonder abut my bloodline. Beyond the fact that his parents were from Germany I don’t know anything.
Maybe they were German Jews that escaped, that would be cool. I am considering getting a DNA test to find out, it’s just really expensive. Recently my uncle got to me to sign up for an ancestry research service and they offer DNA tests to see your ethnic makeup and possible relations.
I want to be related to Karl Marx.
Sometimes I think that the technique of making CGI people indistinguishable from the real thing is something that was already developed and is being kept secret.The propaganda possibilities, especially is severely controlled states, would be numerous.
I would almost think of it as something that should be deemed forbidden due to this.
Then there is S1m0ne in the back of my head.
I don’t like how it seems accepted that there is an objective view in regards to criticism. Take Mystery Science Theater 3000 for example, they mock “bad” movies, but I enjoy a few that they make fun of, and I am sure there are people who like movies that I don’t like. Appreciation is so subjective, I hate the band wagon mentality of the whole thing.
Star Wars Episode I I find is a well made movie, maybe I don’t think that some parts are perfect, but nothing really is. There is so much great craftsmanship in CG, camera work, and music that I can’t dismiss it as a bad movie. But lot’s of people in the fan community just hate it.
Food is like that too, some people like certain dishes and others don’t, I don’t like it when people see their view as absolute. It has an anti-democratic feel to it, this “not being able to have different views”. “You are with us or against us” is garbage.
I think party politics encourages intellectual laze, basically being part of the group makes you want to be on board with the party platform, as opposed to having a more complex political makeup.
Prototype global currency, I wonder if it will evolve into one that replaces current regional currencies and if it will eventually get government support.
I know it’s a libertarian’s wet dream, but I can appropriate it, because I’m planning on ruling the world one day.
Also, keep on seeing people in media that look like people I know/have met. I’m not sure it’s such a big deal, people do have doppelgangers.
Edit: I would like to add why I support such a thing as a single currency, it’s just easier to see who has what when and how if we don’t have to do all that pesky converting and deal with currency market changes, also if it can be stabilized really well we can replace the disaster prone currencies of failing or failed states. The problem would be governance of the currency, maybe make it a U.N. institution or something, another reason to update the security council (because this is not 1945) and fund the U.N. better.
