I almost left you, you know. What you've brought into our home is completely reprehensible and I don't know if I can forgive you. I may still love you, but I sure as heck don't like you much anymore.

the only water in the forest - day 9
If you ever want to get a true glimpse in to the state of this country, visit the yahoo bulletin boards for the news part of the site.
You should really only do this if you are either fairly cynical, or don't actually care about the future of the country.
Because if you actually have any hope this country has a decent future, these boards will beat it out of you pretty damn quickly.
The first thing you will notice is that - judging by 90% of the posts - everything is the fault of immigrants.
It doesn't matter what the story is about - a killer whale getting trapped in a beer can? That wouldn't happen if we didn't allow all this immigration. A story about the world's heaviest man? Well - if there weren't so many immigrants, then he'd be able to find a job and work some of that weight off.
You should also be aware that, for the majority of the posters, "Muslim" and "immigrant" are entirely interchangeable words and mean exactly the same thing.
Of course, when it comes to stories about politics and crime, then the posts about blaming immigrants/Muslims increase at an almost exponential rate. Even when the story quite clearly says a Catholic man has been arrested in Derry for explosive offences, you'll soon learn that he is actually a Muslim, and just pretending to be a Catholic to avoid suspicion.
You will also find a lot of people who "are not racist". You can tell this because the first line of their post is "I'm not a racist, but...." or "I don't want to sound racist, but...." or "I don't want people thinking I am a racist, but..."
Don't get me wrong - they are racist, and fairly blatantly so. But since they go out of their way to tell you they're not, you really should take them at their work, and take their rants about black people ruining the earth and immigrants wrecking the country as informed comment, not racist babbling.
The same problem also exists with homophobia, although far fewer people start their abusive and bigoted rants with "I'm not homophobic", because apparently gay bashing is more acceptable than racism in the modern age.
But surprisingly it is not the vast swathes of racists or homophobes that make me despair the most about the future of humanity.
No - it's the people who are just so *thick* that it makes you wonder how they haven't died out through natural selection.
Such as the person who said that - to avoid his organs being taken against his will (in this "opt-out" plan for donation) - he will have himself cremated.
Because obviously the majority of organs are harvested after a body is buried in the ground, rather than in the sterile, hygienic environment of the hospital room the person has died in.
Or the person who said that he would much rather live under a dictatorship because at least then criminals would get the punishments they desire.
Or the long, long - ever so long - line of people who don't seem to be able to connect the fact that the laws that protect people they don't like also protect people they do like.
All in all, it is a fairly good cross-section of the worst aspects of humanity, and one that - if you spend too long thinking about it - will just depress you to the point of giving up.
And you might think you can fight against it - that by replying with a well-reasoned, well-presented, logically thought out argument, you will teach them the error of their ways and make them see that - perhaps - there is a better way.
But that way lies madness. Because the moment you put pen to paper (r finger to key) to refute anything they have said, then they will make insinuations (usually very unsubtle ones) that you are one of the immigrants you are defending, or one of the gays you are defending.
That if you dare to believe that not all immigrants are criminals, then clearly you must be one of them, because no true Englishman would ever say such a foolish thing.
If the future of humanity is written on those boards, then we are all truly doomed.
But I have a hope that the people who post there are only a minority, that they only make up the smallest part of our society. And that the greater part is the greater part - capable of using reason, logic and their brains.
And so, life becomes sunny, once again.

Afternoon...
Spent the day with Shawna. Hung out for most of it naked in the woods behind her house. We tried to have sex but she got hurt too bad by it so we gave up on it. really the only major happenings of today.

the only water in the forest - day 6
There are times when my promise and resolve not to hate anyone is tested to a very severe degree, and when what I really want to do is find them, beat the snot out of them and tell them what utter bastards they are.

I am convinced there is nothing more rewarding on this planet than seeing the look of wonder on a child.

I feel so empty. Like the world is passing me by. Why can't I feel something, even when he loves me so much?
