There is almost nothing I find more oppressive then people who only spend their time dealing with the "really important" issues. If hubski was just a place to watch vids of Syrian children with their jaw bone blown off I really wouldn't spend that much time here. As much as people want to make the "really important" stuff important to the common man, I'd say that about 80% of the stuff that the average "bleeding heart", "uncaptured intellectual," "Anarcho-syndicalist," "liberal," or whatever your flavor is total horseshit.

I am much happier reading a bit of everything, exploring the vastness of human achievement, rather then arrogantly trying to be meaningful and pertinent every moment. Thank god for the trivial, there would be no reason to live without it, we all need ways to while away the time. At least with the trivial to contrast, when I watch the vid of the Syrian kid with no fucking jaw I can still care.

And lastly, I'm sick and fucking tired of you heretics suggesting that the flying spaghetti monster will have have mercy on anyone's soul. If I have my way the New Reformed Church of the Flying Spaghetti monster will grid you and your kind out of existence. Have fun in hell you goddamn apostate.

Lol. Proudly flying spaghetti monster. Money is now the root of much evil but religion can be blamed for more than its fair share of a divided and troubled world. My bible is called, the god delusion, check it out ;-)
