Why is there all this talk about indictments and fabricated evidence bullshit that supposedly led to the military occupation abroad?? Why is this the fucking discourse about imperialist military conqueror ventures in every sector (from leftist fools to right-wing nutcases) of this country's society? Why is the discourse of anything regarding the ( Read more... )

I found my beret. I was the only activist with one back in the days, early 00's. Will I be it again? What does this mean? I have been looking forward to this moment for the past 2.3 years of my life. It is finally here. I hate to say it, but it's such a personality thing that I know I loved having ( Read more... )

Today I cried at work. One week at my new workplace just piled in to some heavy emotional shit for me today. Folks come in looking for housing, and most come from living on the streets.

CONTRADICTION: Shakira ( Read more... )

Feeling guilty, mixed feelings about buying indie white bands music. Like I try to feel empowered about listening to poc ( Read more... )

Listening to Hard Knock radio -- always inspiring conversations about hip-hop, youth, rap music, and all the cultural and economic stuff having to do with it. Always some shit that just needs to be said. The questions... why are mostly white cats listening to "conscious" hip-hop? Are blacks and other people of color only listening to the silly, ( Read more... )

My friend BK called me yesterday. 3rd time in the past 4-6 months and left me a voicemail. I have such a hard time having enough guts to call him back and say I'm sorry for not calling back. He is one of my best friends ever, sicne high school. He is going to be a doctor and is a total would-be capitalist. But I know I've connected with him on ( Read more... )
