Mixed Bag of Goodies and Blog Against Racism

Quick Note:

Blog Against Racism Day is Decem­ber 1st– if you would like to participate.Just thro­wing it out there; if you�re inte­res­ted you can go from there.

If you just feel like com­men­ting on other peo­ples rants you can Goo­gle it and find many blogs out there taking a stab at it.

I myself will post my very slight opi­nion on racism — a day early — at the bot­tom of this post, this makes me slightly deme­ri­to­rious, but I have a busy sche­dule tomo­rrow, so if you want to read my opi­nion ( and you do, you know you do) then you will have to read the whole post. Maybe ya�ll are more com­for­ta­ble tal­king about racism than you are about rape.

I know what you’re thin­king. You’re thin­king “she is not funny, inte­res­ting, poe­tic, witty, or cle­ver any more; she is begin­ning to bore me with her inces­sant chat­ter on The Sudan and Rape and now Racism”. Oh well.

The com­ments for the last post were quite exten­sive so thanks to ever­yone who exhaus­ted me with their com­men­tary. I fear MJ has com­men­ted him­self out for life after that one.

I apo­lo­gize to those who found the song vul­gar but it did help to make the point, and it�s only a stu­pid jin­gle. It�s fine when a guy is hear­tily sin­ging out (Jimmy “fake red­neck” Buffet’s) Why Don�t we Get Drunk and Screw but it is deplo­ra­ble when a female blah blah blah. I think you got the point.….….��.. and my com­mis­sion on the down­loads, although paltry, will pay for a cou­ple of nee­ded espres­sos and that copy of Jesus Loves Me I down­loa­ded from I Tunes.

Seriously though I can�t really think of any thing funny or enter­tai­ning and I�m in class �or at least on my way so well later peo­ple.( ok I�m out now )

Oh maybe a mildly amu­sing list of sorts for those with an underl­ying curio­sity as to the per­son behind this night­mare called won­der­land or not.

1.When I�m bored or need a few minu­tes rest from school work and because I don�t have time to paint any more I doodle paint while day­drea­ming of things I’d rather be doing.

2. I�ve never given a blow job so please stop with the emails. Con­trary to current news flashes there are some peo­ple who are saving their mouths for big­ger and bet­ter things.

OK, I think I�m done with that amu­sing crap.

Now on to racism:

Of course I�m against racism. Most peo­ple you speak to with will tell you they are anti racism. Fact is many peo­ple are against it but are still racist. Many will point out a million facts and situa­tions to dis­prove racism saying it is not racism but socioe­co­no­mics which cau­ses the rift the divide the pre­ju­di­ces. That of course is non­sense. We have only to look to the Sudan to see that racism exists. Geno­ci­des are inex­cu­sa­ble, igno­rance is not a fac­tor as it is out there, unlike other geno­ci­des which took place in a time where a large part of the world was not ori­gi­nally privy to the infor­ma­tion, we don�t have that excuse. To blog against racism one must Blog against the geno­cide occu­rring in the Sudan. Without racism this would not be a tole­ra­ble geno­cide.

Time to see the world as a whole!
Time to light the fire with the fuel!

  • I know for a fact there is a ser­vice out there that if you enter in an e-mail address it will sign up that address for tons of spam lists.

    Or just use that e-mail addy for a ton of free stuff lists. :)

  • I could try to say something but it wouldn’t be ori­gi­nal… So I will let Mr. Len­non do the talking…

    Ima­gine

    Ima­gine there’s no hea­ven,
    It’s easy if you try,
    No hell below us,
    Above us only sky,
    Ima­gine all the peo­ple
    living for today…

    Ima­gine there’s no coun­tries,
    It isnt hard to do,
    Nothing to kill or die for,
    No reli­gion too,
    Ima­gine all the peo­ple
    living life in peace…

    Ima­gine no pos­se­sions,
    I won­der if you can,
    No need for greed or hun­ger,
    A brotherhood of man,
    Ima­gine all the peo­ple
    Sha­ring all the world…

    You may say Im a drea­mer,
    but Im not the only one,
    I hope some day you’ll join us,
    And the world will live as one.

  • I might give it a shot but at the very least I will check out some of the blogs wri­ting on it. Thanks for the link.

    I agree what is hap­pe­ning in the Sudan is a pretty overt sign of racism when you think of it.

    1.Wish I could doodle so well. I take it your dreams involve jum­ping off mountains?

    2. I won’t com­ment on this one although there are many things run­ning through my mind.

  • Lol…jeez, bored in class much ;) Yeah, hell day all around. Taking a break from NOT wri­ting my annual review of pro­fes­sio­nal activities.

    Wow, nice doodle pain­ting :)

    The offen­sive song lyrics? Peo­ple got upset about that?

  • I will do a post on racism.

    thanks for the heads up.

    …and by the way…

    I DO think that you are funny, inte­res­ting, poe­tic, witty, or clever.

    you are NOT boring me with your chat­ter on the sudan and rape and now racism.

    keep up the good work.

    you rule.

    peace.

  • Blogs against racism.…Such purpose…

    Such an attempt on my blog would be a com­plete waste of time.
    I’m too busy fin­ding ways to post new ima­ges of dog poop.

    you’re one of those bitches who take and take and take and never give because you think you are inte­llec­tually supe­rior to anyone you come in con­tact with.
    You write a post about blow jobs and then you post some little quip about not giving them. You are what they call a tease so the­re­fore your stance on rape makes a sense. You pro­bably tease your boy­friends and then say no and then go off to your mee­tings to advance huma­ni­ta­rian cau­ses
    when the only huma­ni­ta­rian thing you need to do is learn to give a pro­per blow job.

  • anony­mous… I got your “Blow Job”… bring it on you piece of *cen­so­red*!!! Again, you are one with no BALLS… you don’t have the cou­rage to sign your name!!!

    Already did a post this week on racism… I don’t know if I can think of to much to say on the topic… except “We have all been vic­tims of it and we have all been guilty of it”…

    “Con­trary to current news flashes there are some peo­ple who are saving their mouths for big­ger and bet­ter things.” Save on sis­ter, save on… LOL!!!!

  • I’ve never given on either– we have so much in common.

    Do you want me more, or do I want you more? Whaddya think?

  • “one” And that wasn’t a Freu­dian slickp

  • Chill out dude. You obviously are in need of one if you get that wor­ked up over things that make sense. She has a very nice mouth and wants to keep it that way. She used to carry a tooth­brush with her everywhere she went. Some peo­ple are just fus­sier than others.

    Because I do not have a blog, and reside in a dead jour­nal tene­ment which is rarely used, I will post in your comments.

    Coo­per that pic­ture will come soon enough, it is sno­wing almost everywhere and I can’t wait.

    Let us exa­mine the term racism which simply means a pre­ju­dice against a cer­tain race of peo­ple.
    I can�t figure out how one could take a race of peo­ple and as a whole dis­like them. Sadly in some parts of the country, maybe more than we think, it is still quite prevalent.

    My gf is a small Asian girl and I’m a tall blonde white boy of Danish decent; when tra­ve­ling in a few dif­fe­rent pla­ces over the last year there was an underl­ying atti­tude of, if not pred­ju­dice, con­fu­sion over why we would be together; much of this occu­rred in this country but some of it occu­rred in Europe over the sum­mer. There is still an ove­rall fee­ling by Cau­ca­sians that they in some way are supe­rior to other races. This may come from their dec­li­ning dollar syn­drome or what I like to call fear of not being the coo­lest guy in the class. It does exist, it sucks, edu­ca­tion is the only way to help alle­viate it , edu­ca­tion takes money, not ever­yone has money because some peo­ple live in poverty still and the chance of edu­ca­tion is actually get­ting slim­mer for the majo­rity. It�s a vicious cycle my friend.

  • Anon:

    Wow, I thought I just finished scra­ping all the dogshit off my shoes, but obviously some lan­ded inside your head. Nothing pis­ses me off more than some idiot with a stalker-like God com­plex. So not going down on some­body somehow makes another human being less of a human being? Jesus H. Buddha…that’s creepy.

    It’s her blog, and she can post wha­te­ver the hell she wants to.

    Sorry. Hope that wasn’t too harsh, Coop, any­body else.

  • Alice– Don’t lis­ten to the hata’s, rude peo­ple, or those who gene­rally like to poke fun at you and your view­point on life.
    They hate anyone and ever­yone dif­fe­rent from them.
    I will post a blog on Racism.
    I am not a Hata’.
    Hate on Hata’s Hate On. Hatred got you this far in life, Guess you think it will carry you further.
    Get a clue Hata’ This country was foun­ded on Free­dom, not Hatred.
    Hatred of any per­son or peo­ple as a whole is fun­da­men­tally wrong.
    Peace-WhatevA’
    Alice, your not a Hata’, Props to you.

  • I was kind of hoping far­ting in bed would be next. You’re right of course. Things hap­pen in Africa that would never be tole­ra­ted in Europe or Asia or Ame­rica, unless someone with the bomb was doing it. Things are tole­ra­ted in parts Geor­gia that wouldn’t be tole­ra­ted in others unless someone with money was doing it. It’s funny how we talk about tole­ra­ting each other while tole­ra­ting what we do to each other too.

    Oh, and I loved the doodle. Just can’t keep all the beauty in, can you?

  • I already put up my post for tonight through tomo­rrow, but tomo­rrow night I will post a pic­ture of Dia­mo­ne­lle in her Valky­rie braids.
    Does that count?

  • old soul: ok but what are you tal­king about? Stay on topic please or go to the back of the class. I’m just kidding.

    miz bohem: Love Len­non and good choice it works well.

    biz­man: Do check out the other blogs.

    stri­der: thanks and great I’ll read it. Your place is pretty cool too and I heard you now have more room. lol

    Ben­nett: I’m sure you are not the only one that feels that way.

    non-a mouse– You’re right about one thing — woa– never mind — you’re not right about anything. I can totally see where you would see giving a blow job a a huma­ni­ta­rian event though.

    zen­pro: When I star­ted it I was in bet­ween clas­ses not in class.

    It’s on my head.…ewwwww quick GET IF OFF.

    Yea I shouldn’t have pos­ted it but peo­ple get so bored when I post the other stuff I thought I’d post a little per­so­nal his­tory to keep them enter­tai­ned and to address (in a humo­rous way) all the blow job emails I got after the last post. My bad.

    Make sure the dog shit is off my head will you…

    Girl: ya that was a great post too you should sticky it up for tomorrow.

    pro­ta­go­ras: I’m sure I want you more I just don’t know it yet.

    Robot­man: I do have a nice mouth, ah yes I remem­ber that tene­ment well. Nice comment.

    Dough­boy: That could be a song
    or sort of song.. hata’s hata’s– stay away –from my tomata’s..ah never­mind i have to go to bed.

    Doug: I’m sorry to disap­point you that will be next if you really want it that badly. You know for you …anything.
    That is about the cru­dest thing I�ve ever seen you post.. heh heh

    Weirdso: of course , that will be a sig­ni­fi­cant contribution.

  • Anony­mous: See, here’s the mis­take you’re making. Alice is your inte­llec­tual supe­rior. If you want a blow­job so bad, do it your fuc­king self. I hope you break your neck trying.

  • Alice: Once again you’ve put the com­mon sense of the sub­ject in terms so plain as to com­mand the assent of anyone with even the merest cra­nial capacity.

  • I think it’s the second cru­dest thing I’ve ever pos­ted, but I thought it would make you laugh. You know, for you anything. And no, I was tea­sing. Go ahead and do that post on tuber­cu­lo­sis you’ve been saving.

  • It’s been so busy, I didn’t read all your post — Just basi­cally saw the snow­boar­ding pic. What a fun day dream. Blog against raci­sim day huh? That would be today!

  • can’t we all just get along?

  • I didn’t know about Blog Against Racism Day. Damn. That’s what I get for not get­ting here fast enough. And Stri­der beat me to a com­ment here. Now I know I’m really behind! ;)

  • Yes…Here I am again a few hours later to repost yet another com­ment on this post because I’m spi­te­ful and because I care somewhat…

    I won’t argue your points from the pre­vious because in all honesty I agreed with you but had not made myself clear and sent out the wrong message…So I’m sorry either way.

    Racism is everywhere. I was rai­sed in a town with no black peo­ple 20 minu­tes away from a town with majo­rity black peo­ple but I’m assu­med to be a rasist merely from being grown in geo­graphi­cal whi­tey bubble…

    Obviously I don’t like it either but in all honesty I recieve more reverse racism because of my ori­gin, and upbrin­ging. Would I have issue with my sis­ter marr­ying a black man or of any other race?..No. She’s a grown woman I’d hope would marry someone who doesn’t hurt her which wha­te­ver race.

    Racism is inhe­riant by most all and sur­pri­zingly by those that defend anti-racism.

    See if you ask anyone whether it mat­te­red if Black peo­ple, Asians, or all races cared whether all raci­ses became so mixed that only one race sur­vi­ved even the most die-hard anti-racist might scream many contradictions.…That’s the nature of life as it is.…Whose going to change the mas­ses that refuse to listen?

  • Oh,…and if you refuse doing blow jobs, that’s cool.…

    I’m more for equal rights, and having said that I love giving the right fems oral pleasure.

  • I was afraid this would dete­rio­rate into this dear friend and I was going to say don’t debase your­self making silly com­ments about not giving blow jobs but that also is an atti­tude of a patriarchal society where women don’t talk about those things. I�m not going to say it.

    Ins­tead I’ll say the fly is always open.
    Sorry had to do it.

    Also going to say nice pic­ture, drea­ming of the board still and fore­ver I see.

    I’m late for blog for racism day but I’ll go around check some out and maybe com­ment. World aids day is today too sand I have an event to attend here on that.

    anti flag-long time no see

  • Racism is not, as some would have us believe, a natu­ral state in which the cul­tu­res of the world stand to main­tain their inte­grity. Racism is pre­sent and allows things like, as you already poin­ted out, the geno­cide in Dar­fur to go on. What hap­pens to peo­ple dif­fe­rent than us, and who could be more dif­fe­rent than us then a race of black peo­ple living in a tech­no­lo­gi­cal back­ward third world country, doesn’t mat­ter to us because it doesn�t affect us.

    The degree to which peo­ple are pre­ju­dice is affec­ted by the degree to which these peo­ple are dif­fe­rent from them-both from the stand­point of where they live, what their nation has to offer,their cul­ture, and their race-and indi­rectly affects whether peo­ple will pay atten­tion to atro­ci­ties com­mit­ted therein.

  • Dude… blog against racism. Sorry to nit­pick but there’s a clear and unmis­ta­kea­ble difference.

  • I believe the driec­tions sta­ted.
    “Blog Against Racism” day, in which peo­ple post something on the very broad and com­plex sub­ject of racism. You don’t need to have a poli­ti­cal blog to par­ti­ci­pate. Race, after all, affects almost every aspect of life in one way or another. Your post might be lite­rary in nature, or his­to­ri­cal, or con­cern current issues in need of poli­ti­cal atten­tion. You might take the oppor­tu­nity to debunk scien­ti­fic racism, or write poetry or essays about per­so­nal expe­rien­ces, uplif­ting or depressing.”

    Pretty broad palette.

    This was a com­ment not a post.

  • I’m against racism, but the pro­blem is I recog­nize I have racist ten­den­cies. I think it’s more upbrin­ging than anything else, but I still catch myself totally jud­ging peo­ple by their race. When I do catch myself, I try to correct the beha­vior, but I’m sure there are times where I don’t even notice I’m prejudiced.

    We can’t all be per­fect, but we can recog­nize that we are imper­fect and strive to change it. That’s what I try to do when it comes to my pre­ju­di­ces inc­lu­ding racism.

I can honestly say I come from a family where racism…if it did exist was not evi­dent but I surely saw it around me. I grew up in a lot of pla­ces though.

  • It’s not on a pizza is it? That scene from She’s All That was gross.

Man, if you were expec­ting me ack­no­weldge your actual argue­ments as being worthy of dis­cus­sion by res­pon­ding to them then I have to say, I’m even less impres­sed by your inte­lli­gence than before. An that’s an accom­plish­ment. So con­grats. Now go eat some pow­de­red bleach or something

    If I’m wrong about your iden­tity then the above does not apply to you, but seriously what’s the deal?

  • Racism is one of those things nobody wants to think of as being part of them­sel­ves. I don’t think I am racist, but how can I really know, gro­wing up in a place that is 95% white, 3% his­pa­nic, and 2% every­body else. Until I was in my teens, I had only met one non-white per­son in my life, and that was a girl from Africa who had been adop­ted by a white family.

    Its scary to think something so evil as racism could be a part of your­self that has never come out. I keep an eye on myself just to be careful.

  • I will get off topic as much as i want to.

    ICE CREAM. Prawn! Um Rap is dead! HA HA!

  • We are ALL guilty of the same sins. It just varies in degrees and the way it is expres­sed. Racism to one is nor­mal in another culture.

    We can reduce it to a minus­cule speck but it will still be there. I’m not saying there ain’t no hope, it will just take a global/planetary para­digm shift to totally era­di­cate it.

    First one to say he/she has not slan­de­red any­body (ver­bally expres­sed or not) based on the color of their skin, reli­gion, or race is wel­come to “throw the first stone”.

    No one is innocent.

    Myself inc­lu­ded.

  • Not gonna lie-I didn’t read the whole post or any of the comments-It’s 12:15 AM and I am tired but I felt like I had to catch up some. You said “Fact is many peo­ple are against it but are still racist.” That is one of the most true and clear mes­sa­ges I have ever heard and I just wan­ted to com­pli­ment you on it. I have, in my life­time, thought and said many pre­ju­dice and racist things, and som­ti­mes bad words and thoughts come into my head to this day-but I keep my mouth shut and keep remin­ding myself it is wrong, and that’s not the per­son I want to be. I guess thats all we can do, or atleast what I am doing.

  • Check into that judge who thinks the 17-year-old invi­ted her boy­friend and his pals to assault her and then filed rape char­ges on a whim. I bet he’s the one who sends you the blow job e-mail offers.

  • Nice blog. I too have a blog about tro­pi­cal fish Please visit it and take a look
