I was at the mall today for the first time in years. Went to go pick up a copy of Freewheelin' Bob Dylan and Bringing it all Back Home.

No luck on either count but interestingly...

Everyone in the mall is an inhuman freak on some mind-altering drug pushing them to mindlessly consume. It's a really disgusting place. Not to mention it looks like an eating disorder clinic. Every ten feet there's a toothpick-looking chick with a thick veneer of makeup. Not to say I wouldn't bang every one of'em -- if there was any way possible I could even communicate with them, and there's not. It's really like we speak different languages. I speak English, and mall denizens speak bullshittish.

I remember taking acid and going through the mall for something years and years ago. Definitely freaky. One of the worst nastiest places on earth. Bunch of brainwashed trolls. I wish that malls would blow up and take the lives of everyone in them.

Also, Kath is telling me the anti-sweatshop bill died. I don't have the attention span to get into detail, but in short it was a bill to prohibit state institutions from buying their clothing from sweatshops. A real no-brainer for passing, yaknow?

But no, they were too busy passing a law to ban junkfood and soda machines from public schools.

Don't get me wrong, nice thinking there. But... what does it say? Maybe...

Dear downtrodden women and children of the world,

Thank you for the basketball jerseys that our children are wearing at the 8th grade basketball championship. We really appreciate you and your children's slave-labor.

Little Johnny and Beth have gotten really good at sports. I think part of it is this new law we passed against Pepsi and Snickers. The kids are so fit! They probably don't have the endurance of you and your kids, but hey, than again, we're not bringing them up to earn a quarter an hour, either.

Love,

The CT General Assembly

Seriously. Why does anybody know anything about -- or even accept any information thrust on them -- about celebrities? I am thinking hard and there's literally not one single reason to know anything about someone who you don't know and who has no role in your life. SO, I'm going to erase all the Paris Hilton / Jessica Simpson / Brad Pitt / blah blah blah shit from my head.

I'm not even going to find out or if I overhear not gonna listen to or think about the MIKEY JACKSON verdict. I mean seriously, again. Why is this news? Why is it more important than the people on trial for child molestation in your home town or state?

It's a psychologically fucked industry. It

1. propagates harmful ideas about how women should look etc.
2. Takes peoples valuable time and energy for nothing in return
3. Distracts people from what's important
4. Feeds into a fucked sense of societal vulturism in which everybody wants to see "celebs" go down in flames
5. It fills peoples' heads with the wrong ideas of what success and happiness is (driving consumer culture to even more gross depths)

SO if you have a brain and are a worthwhile person, I urge you to join with me in

1. Voluntarily and willfuly erasing and celebinfo from your brain
2. Shutting out and refusing to accept or process any new celebinfo
3. DERIDE anyone who mentions shit about that stuff
