Planned obsolescence

Journal

Artisanship has devolved into planned obsolescence, to sustain the consumer and debt cycles and thereby the business cycle created by our fiat money systems we are forever tied to the endless cycle of production, consumption and waste at the end of which the earth is soured and the skies darken.

Merely a few generations ago people still had things they used that had been handed down for generations, furniture was a good example. Heirlooms crafted with excellent workmanship and engineered to last a lifetime or 10! Today we we go home at the end of a long day at a job we don’t care about in whats left of the economy, to “our cozy little flat in noweheresville and pull our ikea curtains shut and try to hide from the big bad world and pretend it inst happening” we plead with our owners who have designed a world not fit to live in for us, their slaves, “just leave us alone, just let me have my tv-dinner and my steel belted radials and leave me alone”. “Well I am not going to leave you alone, I want you to get MAD! I want you to say I am a human being god damn it! My life has value!”

There is an alternative to the one-dimensional society of a one-dimensional man, where the individual drowns in a sea of synthetic junk and junk information: stop giving your love to things, build communities, give you love to other people and above all else consume in moderation and always be mindful of what you are supporting with your money oh consumer. Fuck all the nonsensical gadget bullshit people are obsessed with, fuck the entire consumer culture. grow your own vegetables, talk to your family, help people who have no one and nowhere else to turn: “be the change you wish to see in the world”!

About me

Perception Conditions Existence

I am two things

a warrior who follows mavors, lord of battle and a poet who understands the gift of the muses love.

i am a quantum dualistic physicist i am a student of the humanities

An expression of the radical possibilities for consciousness and scientific conscience in this, the era of petty kingdoms, but only for those with True Grit.

I am credulous about the destiny of mankind, I recognize in no uncertain terms the very real and natural peril of our species and am committed to crystallizing the entire planets' resources, both human and material toward the end of satisfying true Jeffersonian longevity for the human species.
