My apologies to everyone who has been fed up with me since my return. I will be stepping back and taking the objective perspective again. I should know not to argue while introverted. You may not see me for a few days. My moods change quickly, though, so do not hold me to that. See you when I care less about things.
Is anyone here doing something today? Well, you probably will not be on to answer if you are, but I should ask anyway... Does anyone know why we have this holiday, and what it represents?
I cannot believe that they would dare to stoop this low. While this is a video, I feel it contributes as a current even so if you could keep it up, I would appreciate it. For those of you who know nothing about May 1st or May Day, I encourage you to read up and try to understand why this is a disgusting tactic that should make you lose any respect you had for anyone who even so much as likes Fox News, let alone the organization itself. Fox Introduces Segment on May Day Occupy Protests with Footage of Soviet Military Parades For those of you who have never heard of it, I strongly suggest reading into the Haymarket affair. Maybe I was expecting too much from them, but this is the most blatant and pathetic attempt at propagandizing the news I have seen since the RIAA claimed that downloading MP3s was downloading communism.

Hey. Expect to be flooded with responses. I got so used to not being here, it will take a while to get back into the swing... Did I miss anything serious...?
It is a bad idea to let people make themselves into them. That is all.

This is more of a notice than a discussion, but some of you might wish to discuss it anyway. I feel it applies to many people I know, including some people on this forum. I found it interesting to say the least. The premise: Anti-depressants are not in any way helpful to the depressed, and are actually harmful in its place. I got this from a friend of mine. Based on this source: http://www.psycheducation.org/bipolar/AntidepressantWithdrawal.htm Looking deeper into the issue, my friend also said this: Have you used these anti-depressants, or would you use them if you were told to? What do you think of them? Do you think that he is right about them? Why or why not? Discuss.
Happy birthday, friend of mine. I hope you have a good day. Even though it almost over; alas...
Otherwise known as "schooling". What are your opinions on compulsory education? Do you like it, or do you dislike it? Do you believe that it increases the intelligence of the population or decreases it? Do you feel that it enables children to reach new heights or cripples their ingenuity and view of society? Do you feel that its purpose is to help its subjects or to enforce corporate interests on them? I side with the latter on all of these questions. My experience with compulsory schooling and the psychology behind it have led me to conclude that compulsory schooling is nothing more or less than the indoctrination of young minds for corporate and political ends. The way that society is structured and the way that people behave within it is based on schools, as school is a child's first impression of organized society, and if that was not enough, it the impression that they keep for at least twelve years of their lives before they are allowed out into another world. However, this world is full of people who went through the same thing they did, so they are unlikely to find much different there. This, among other things, is only reasonable and should be clear to anyone who understands the nature of human development. While I could write several essays on the subject explaining why I feel this way, I feel that evidence supporting my conclusion would do a far better job than any amount of persuasive language I could present. If you live in the US specifically and still feel that you have basis on which to believe in compulsory education after hearing this lecture, then I would be very eager to hear what you have to say, or rather, I would be very interested in the "why" for any answers other than my own that you may hold. To anyone with an interest in the intended nature and general history of compulsory education, I strongly urge you to take an hour of your time to listen to the following lecture. If you are not already familiar with Gatto, let me introduce you. John Taylor Gatto (born December 15, 1935) is a retired American school teacher with nearly 30 years experience in the classroom, and author of several books on education. He is an activist critical of compulsory schooling, of the perceived divide between the teen years and adulthood, and of what he characterizes as the hegemonic nature of discourse on education and the education professions.

See if Abilify is right for you! [video=youtube;tGymr78FtbU]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGymr78FtbU[/video] I got this ad on Hulu and I could not believe I was seeing it. I think this is worse than the parody in Click. These are very dark times.
