Amber Case made a case that shook the bass… NO, THE BASE!

Foundation, cornerstone, pillar, etc.

it caused an identity crisis of my 1^st and 2^nd self

all the while lasers deflected off my empty brain case

and I seemed lost in analog and digitism

+++ I KNEW NOT IF YOU WERE A ‘1’ OR ‘0’ +++

and thought, “fuck it, there no longer remains physical operations”

then determined it appropriate to store

the frontal lobe in the nearest whore – (which could be a quasi-techie tuna stuff Apple Store)

a lustful digital indulgence in new age hedonism

APPs, open-forums, social media, and the I-store

I made a visit to the Pirate Bay

the FBI said, “that’s not fucking a-o-k!”

I aim for a wormhole as my hard reset.

The war is a war and it's no human's war but a creation of:
fantasies, semi-fiction, not-non-fiction, smokescreens, lies, deceit, money-motivated, misdirected nationalism, a dedicated zombie population, apathy, greed, SHALL I CONTINUE?!
Incoherent is the only coherence I can work from me these days when most are bound by chains of metaphor and our prison is our own to construct...It's like "Choose Your Own Adventure"!  Isn't it great.  We can fictionalize our every day stake and our choice of Novocain is just about endless here in the USofA.  Has 2012 made me cynical?  When I drop the guard and conscious mental state...FUCK yeah!  Do I wish to remain cynical, nope... that's a start, right?
I'm going to attempt an 'out' and construct creatively concrete counter-cynicism, it's the only way:
Fuck it, I want it gone.
Fuck it, I want it out.
Fuck it, we have

Confront Tyranny

One has to only watch the many videos of revolutions in the past 1.5 years to become justifiably frightened.  I can only fight back the tears as military police publicly rape women protestors in Egypt, shoot live ammunition that kills their fellow country-persons, graze over the extensive list of martyrs to the democratic cause all over the world, etc etc.  
This breeds thoughts in my mind that point to the potential violence in the USA if we were to follow a similar course to many regions in social/political/economic upheaval.  I am not a pacifist but I do not want to see familiars pitted against familiars when the world has potential to be such a beautiful place. 
Today I am providing links to videos that some may deem "inspirational".  Whatever it is, I hope it propels you into positive #directAction that does more to construct creatively than to destroy and agitate without due cause.
Do not be afraid, do not back away -- confront tyranny!

A point to remember before the rant: I am not against dualism's or always see them in a critical light but many remain solidified in our day and create a whole lotta drama and polarization.

Of Flying Cars and the Declining Rate of Profit

New piece by David Graeber titled, "Of Flying Cars and the Declining Rate of Profit" is a must read, especially for techies, Trekkies and geeks (oh my!).  
In the future when we analyze this contemporary age with hindsight it will be easy to say what, "should have been done".  We can't necessarily know that, but after reading this piece I stand by creativity being our greatest ally.  Create (it's OK if it's replication of previous known technology, etc.) systems that foster sustainability with all things.  Sound too moo-poo???  Here's a "profound" example: start a garden!!!
'Creativity', not cynicism and paranoia should be the motivator for development/invention/evolution of technologies and systems.

Science Fiction

An insightful comment in response to article:

Hello, Rebecca,
You are the first person I have heard make this comparison publicly, and it does, to me, seem almost too apropos... I had been wondering myself whether the author intended it to be a commentary on our current situation. I was talking recently with a radical East Indian activist who put forth an interesting perspective on it, however, when I suggested that I saw the story as an allegorical attack on our mores and systems. Admittedly she had not read it and was basing her response on my description, but I do feel her take is worth repeating. She feels that the background of the story - that of a global conflict which led to the survivors forming the thirteen colonies - actually feeds into the fear mythos of the powers that be, especially when considering the target audience of the series. She feels that rather than it being a diatribe against inhumanity, it actually supports our whole obsession with the inevitability of war, of doom, of a future which we'll have to survive rather than create.
Someone in a position of influence (could have been someone in Obama's Administration) recently was complaining that science fiction is always too glum about the future, that it is constantly portraying a dismal or even disastrous period ahead which the various protagonists are living through or dealing with in various ways. Personally I feel that there is a lot of that genre that is a serious attempt to look ahead from present trends and tendencies and to mirror the darker sides of our human nature as a warning, to wake us from our fascination with technology and remind us that we must be very careful since it is essentially only a few millennia since our primitive brains were dictating our activities. It is no longer in the interest of the human race to act as if every stranger is a threat, or to feel - like a child of a large family at the dinner table - that we must grab at whatever is near us and hoard it against potential famine, to the detriment of any other unfortunates at the meal.
To the degree that there still seem to be many, many people out there who are determined NOT to see the disturbing aspects of our human civilizations, I think perhaps yet another vision which almost literally throws them back in our face may be helpful: it is so important to wake up and see ourselves as we are - an amazingly creative species which has powerful self-destructive tendencies when common sense is ignored. But I do see the aforementioned activist's point also, that young people need to have hope rooted in a determination to create the kind of world they would LIKE to live in, rather than giving them the sense that - no matter what they do - their best chance is only to survive in the world previous generations are busy foisting on their backs. The Occupy movement is just such a declaration of determination, as I see it: at its root it is a dramatic, vital, radical re-envisioning of human values and relationships, not just with each other, but with the earth itself... a powerful rejection of habitual negativity and short-sightedness. It says, to paraphrase the Hunger Games cry: "We shall make our own odds, in humanity's favor".
