Sup y'all.
I'm trying to get back into writing, so I think I'll start doing a little every day. Not necessarily published, mind you, but just the scribbles of a madman in a mad land. Forgive me if shit gets a little weird tonight... I had a few hot tub beers and just knocked back some lunatic-strength Theraflu to fight this fucking head cold I've had all day.
America is losing its collective mind in one way or the other pretty much across the board. Certainly some of it is justified. I won't get into the filthy specifics here, but I will say that America as a whole has got to figure out a way to balance its energy needs and its need to not totally and catastrophically fuck up the planet. Also, science is good, I hear. And why the fuck is Rick Perry our new Secretary of Energy? Ahem. I digress.
Sticking up for myself here for a minute. I know some of you think I'm somewhere to the right of Hitler when it comes to social issues, because I often say things that are considered quite politically incorrect, generally or specifically insensitive, or just downright offensive to everything that is good (probably more often than not, in fact). People who actually know me understand that this is not the case, it is merely how I am - it's not that I'm intentionally abrasive, it's simply that I don't give a single running fuck about your feelings, and I think the world would be a better place if everyone hardened the fuck up a little and realized that life is not perfect and, as drill sergeants are so fond of reminding new Privates, that you are not a unique and delicate snowflake. Also, the world doesn't owe you shit - not consideration, not respect, not a friendship BJ, nothing. Fight for your oxygen. Earn it.
Fuck, I'm rambling again.
Anyway - social issues, thoughts, yes - government has no place telling you what to do in your bedroom, who to marry, what gender you feel like being, what you put in your body, etc. Gay marriage, drugs, whatever. As long as everyone's a consenting adult, you do you, buddy, and don't let any high-horsing clown dick tell you otherwise. That said, don't get on my ass for being a straight white guy... not my fault, to borrow a talking point of various advocacy groups. I was born like this. Tolerance is a two-way street.
There. See? I'm not a Nazi, I'm just an asshole. That, my friends, is an extremely important distinction.
Off to sleep before I say one of those offensive things again. Stay freaky.
