Generic Politics

Die in a Monkey Fire

So my MIT interview fell through. Again.

Let's go through the history of that process for me:

• Contact first person, John Welch, 2.5 weeks before required to, set up interview - interview canceled 4 days before
• Set up second interview - canceled morning of interview with email I do not see, thus I go downtown only to be told that it's my fault for not giving my phone number, which I immediately do
• Set up third interview - canceled day before with e-mail instead of phone call, which did not show up in my inbox and apparently got bounced out. John Welch unavailable to give further interviews.
• Contact Ben Matteo. Now getting close to contact deadline; he contacts me a week later, giving the choice of that week or a week in January. I respond saying, "Either would be fine". Have not heard from him since.
• Contact Mary Beuer. She responds promptly, though it is now past the deadline for contact and nearing the original interview deadline, and we set up a meeting for today, at a coffeeshop.
• Go to coffeeshop twenty minutes early. No one there.
• Twenty Minutes Later: No one there.
• Twenty Minutes Later: No one there.
• Twenty Minutes Later: No one there.
• Forty minutes after the appointed time, I leave.
  
• GAAHHHHHH DEATH DEATH DEATH

I did not receive any email. I did not receive any calls on my home or my cell number. She just didn't show up.

Fucking MIT.

why is the democratic party so stupid sometimes

insulting people never helps you. i mean, insulting other politicians can, but insulting the voters is just dumb.

Read this shit you son of a bitch

In Computer Science right now. Totally unmotivated. Haven't done any work in this class for a week. I think it's starting to show. Dr. Phil has to know this by now.

I have a feeling of I want to start playing basketball more. It is a fun sport for gentlemen. Does anyone join me in this feeling?

There will not be any thoughts about politics and such in this entry because that is not what I am thinking about. That is all something that is important, but that I am tired of reading about.

I would like to say that I frankly don't understand the reticence towards denying religion that seems to exist. Maybe I am misinterpreting things, but a feeling seems common that without a god there is nothing to live for. Frankly, I don't understand this. Live for your life! Set goals, make the world a better place! Without God, we have something to live for; with God, there is something beyond life. Do you see the difference? It is NOT believing in God that gives us something to live for. If God exists, there is no real purpose to this life. It is inferior, it is a shadow of the real truth that is God. If, on this other hand, there is no God, this life is really and truly vital. THEN we have something to be alive for.

Politics

One of the chief lessons, for Democrats, of 2000 that's being carried into 2008 is the danger of voting for third parties. Support for third parties can sap support for Democrats and throw the election to Republicans. To solve this, the Democrats appear to have adopted a strategy certain to win: Nominate the candidate least acceptable to those likely to vote third party (viz., Hillary Clinton) and then threaten those third party voters, telling them that if they don't vote for Hillary they're bringing fascism upon themselves.

Now obviously there's still a long way to go, but this seems to be the way things are heading. And I'd just like to say: If you want to move people from third parties into your tent, nominate someone that they would actually like to vote for! Don't threaten them - nominate a better candidate. That is the lesson of 2000. You need something to appeal to the liberals as well as to the moderates.

David Fucking Cameron

So David Fucking Cameron was in California this week. Apparently he had more than enough time to give an interview to KCBS and no time to give public speeches. God damn.

Although, to be fair, there's probably not that many people in San Francisco who would really want to go to a David Cameron speech, but it still annoys me.

AP Comp Sci is Goodtimes

I really don't think the combination of AP Compsci and my increasing lack of concern about actually, you know, doing work is very good. I really need to try harder in this class, because i do want to learn, but i am just lazy. Way it goes. (This is obviously relevant, since guess what time it is right now?)

I just bought this. Yeah, I'm pretty excited.

Holy shit: Terry Pratchett and Steven Erikson books BOTH being released tomorrow. Yeah, I'm going to Borders.

Also awesome: being one of 6 or so introverts in my religion class. Out of 28. Gott damn.

Questionable Fucking content

Why do people read Questionable Content?

No, that's not the question. The question is why do people lose their shit over it? It's not that great of a webcomic, it's pretty deeply flawed. It's got next to know story progression, Jacques will drop story threads for like a year, the characters all sound EXACTLY the same, Jacques can't draw that well...

Plus, he uses geek humor and references (lawl 4chan) once every 20 strips. It's like he's just throwing in these little things to keep the geeks reading, it pisses me off (that reminds me of how crazy popular 4chan is getting but i digress).

(03:05:19) Matt: because they have loose bowels?

I'm not saying it's shit, it's entertaining. It's humorous. It's a soap opera. But there's better comics out there.

achewood

This is good, it's really minimalist art, but it works with the speech. The thing is it's an acquired taste, but if you like it you'll love it.

This is a really great story driven thing. Set in a really weird British Boarding school, lots of really excellent mythology, nothing at all like Harry Potter. Really good though. Neil gaiman Likes it.

This si fucking great, i'm too tired to say any more about it. Just read it. Do it for me. Win one for the Gipper. Really good art, too. This is what Questionable fucking Content should look like.

2 Things that Bother Me

2 Things that Bother Me:

Out of all the sites on the internet - all the great, educational, entertaining places to go - 4chan (that infamous den of perversion) is the 717th most popular. That is retarded high

Peter O'Toole has never won an Oscar for Best Actor.

Sammie L

I was just thinking about Samuel L Jackson, and I'm pretty impressed with what he's been doing. Not his old, badass personality from Pulp Fiction and such, but with his recent movies. It seems pretty obvious that he no longer gives a shit about his roles, and that's the best thing that could happen to movies.

Seriously, look at his last three roles.

"So you want me to star in an action movie? What's it about? I have to fight snakes, huh? on a plane? So what's it called? 'Snakes on a Plane'? Sign me up!"

"So you wnat me to play a black man who kidnaps a white partier and tries to reform her? What's it called? 'Black Snake Moan'? Sounds great!"

"So you want me in a horror movie, huh? Stephen King wrote it? Who else is in it, then? John Cusack?! And he's the protagonist? Sounds like a hit! Sign me up."

The conclusion is obvious at least to me.

One!

I saw Harry Potter. It was incredibly entertaining - at no point was I not, for some reason, entertained. The movie failed at times and got incredibly bad, but when it did that it was bad enough to be good. Either that or Luna was in a scene. The thing about the movies, for me anyway, is that they can be really shitty as movies, I don't care. What I want to see is the books interpreted on the screen in a cool way, and the people that make these are really good at doing that. The visual style of Hogwarts is one that I really like. So yeah, i liked that.

That's actually all I really wanted to say.

Hmm.

Shatner's version of Rocketman... so beautiful. (seriously, it actually does have some merit, but that's only really because a) shatner is a pretty good actor, even when he's hamming it up and b) the lyrics are good, and a good fit for shatner).

The cost of the complete seven season set for Star Trek Next Gen is $300. Same for DS9. Around 180 for all 5 seasons of Babylon 5. That's 780 for all three series. Now, obviously that's a little crazy. but just one... not out of the question, I shouldn't think.

Also: I think I have a problem (one of many) with book buying. I tend to buy (or get from the library) many books and then never read any of them. For example right now, to read I have 8 or 9 books just lying around that I really want to read. Of course, around 3 of those I probably will end up having no interest in, but it's still a shame. I should be able to work through them, though.

I think I will go to bed since I have work at 9 tomorrow.

FUCK DIGG

Fuck digg. I don't fucking care if they took down a page, that's entirely their pregorative. No, what annoys me is that THE FIRST THREE PAGES and basically EVERY upcoming story is about it! GET THE FUCK OVER IT JESUS CHRIST! ARGHHHH

Politics

Read most of Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail 72 today. I really think the people who basically look on HST as "drugs and radical communism" sort of miss the point. It seems like some people are just like oh hunter s thompson he took drugs. and he hated all the corporations and the nazi fuckers, man. Which he did, but i just think it misses the point. At his heart, Hunter S Thompson was an idealist. He really believed in the American Dream. He just thought it was being fucked up by Americans. Seriously I really think the man deserves more than he's got in terms of respect/fandom.

I was also thinking about the upcoming election cycle - and i realized, we really have no idea who the FUCK the next candidate on either side, but ESPECIALLY not on the Dem. side, is going to be. In '72, there was one leading candidate - Muskie - and some dark horse took it. This year there's three leading candidates and 5 others. Plus, there's no incumbent. And, we have the internet now, which really sort of magnifies the power especially of the sort of movement another candidate would need to catch fire. I think the Internet in regards to this sort of thing is really like a steamroller. It's incredibly powerful in its influence, but it's also a bitch to steer. So in other words, if some dark horse candidate gets going, shows strong in the early primaries, and gets the internet behind him, anything could happen.

I am going to make a few predictions for posterity here, just for the fuck of it, you know? if anyone wants to bet on these i will, but i wouldn't expect anyone else to give a fuck.

Firstly, Hillary Clinton will not be the next Democratic candidate. It's about even chances, I think, that it won't be any of Clinton Obama Edwards - and I really don't think Clinton can get it. If I had to pick I would say Obama, I think.

Secondly, the Republican nominee... Honestly I have no idea. The one thing I would be willing to bet is that it won't be McCain. I would guess Romney, but iunno.

Thirdly, the next president will (obviously, I think) be Democratic. If the Republican opponent is McCain, assuming the Democrat doesn't move too far center, the margin of victory will be huge because of Iraq.

Finally, Nicolas Sarkozy will defeat Segolene Royal on May 6.

I gotta say it was a good day

I got sunburned. I finally watched Pulp Fictions. The Warriors beat the Mavs. I didn't even have to use my AK.

I can't believe it was a good day.

For the Record...

I probably do read your blog if I know you in person and I enjoy talking to you and you or someone you know trusts me enough to give me the blog URL. Even if I haven't seen you in years. Angela, Tiffany, Jack, Ceri, Sumner, Christine, Lindsay, Matt, Ian, and Annie. Probably more that I don't check regularly, and that probably isn't all those of people who fit the three criteria i was talking about earlier but whatever.

I was thinking, I should keep this short. but then i thought, wait, who the fuck is going to read this? what audience do i have to worry about that? fuck that shit?

Prom was this Saturday. It was awkward, and I probably behaved like a caustic, spastic asshole. But at the same itme i had a marginally good time. It was a thing, you know? I think for senior prom my plan should be to lose weight and actually have a date. so I'm not lame. But if wishes were horses, etc, etc, I believe you know the rest.

Oh man fucking exciting news. They found an earthlike planet only 20.5 lightyears away. Fuck yeah! it's small, rocky, right temperature for water, similar amounts of sun as earth... sick. Plus, it means that earthlike planets aren't too rare, which is a good more general thing.

There were two main times i felt like a dick today. One was the abigail joke sumner made, which was actually sort of funny, but also very mean and racist. the other was when adeline got all annoyed because i wouldn't do the review sheet - again - because she had the musical - again. Fuck that shit.

Fuck this shit, too.

Comment if you actually read this whole fucking thing, okay?

lazy

I think it's sort of sad, perhaps, that laziness is one of the most prominent elements of my character. Laziness and procrastination. Seriously. I hate it, hate it, hate it, when it's too late to do anything about it - but i still procrastinate all the time.

Going to Pittsburgh.

Frisco Niggahs Ain't No Punks

Well, I'm proud that there's some local pride, but seriously. do you expect to get respect from San Franciscans if you call yourself a Frisco Niggah?

got damn

Oh man, I read the most racist book today - Sixth Column, by Robert Heinlein. Let me sum up the plot for you - in the book's terms.

"The great yellow hordes have conquered the proud American race. Now, proud tears in their eyes as they ponder the defeat of their great nation - the greatest nation that ever was - six proud members of the great American army plot to depose the hated PanAsian baboons. They possess unknown technologies - the highest achievements of America - and they will use them, along with the superiority of the primed, ready white man to any Asiatic, to take back the great country of America."

So racist.

Finity

Just finished Finity by John Barnes. It's a science-fiction novel that I liked a lot. It was, in a lot of ways, a really well-written adventure story. Just a lot of interesting scenes, the thriller sort of thing of not knowing what was going on, that sort of thing. I definitely enjoyed it, despite a lot of problems. For one thing, the science was often not really in-depth, based on outdated theories, or really didn't make sense if you thought about it. There were some contrivances of the plot that annoyed me (normally it wouldn't, but Barnes, at least 3 times, brings up these coincidences as if there will be some sort of explanation... and there isn't). I suppose the most major criticism is the ending. I'm not going to spoil it, though it probably won't matter, but basically a very major problem introduced in the novel is left totally unresolved. I would wonder if there was a sequel, but it seemed pretty conclusive. I did like some of the other aspects of the ending, though - the 'planeswalker' scenario is one that's pretty intresting, and it's also cool that, although the characters may not have realized it yet, they are essentially immortal.

Overall, a pretty good Romance capital-r, not great on the science or the logic.

fuck shit

god damn it son of a bitch! I think i broke my external hard drive. I'm not sure what happened.

This really fucking sucks because i had a lot of god damn stuff on there, esp. anime. Nothing really crucial, but still... son of a fucking bitch.

also it's annoying because i got it for christmas and i try to avoid breaking/losing shit that I don't pay for.

fucking shit. this really annoys me.

Miscellanies

Several positions and other things.

1: Why John Edwards should be the next Democratic Presidential candidate (assuming he's not dropping out)

John Edwards is by far the best choice for Democratic Candidate. He's non-polarizing. He's charismatic. He doesn't bear - let's admit it - the political disadvantages of being African-American or female. He's not as insanely disliked by many as Hilary, nor as inexperienced as Obama. Furthermore, looking at home states, John Edwards carries 15-vote North Carolina, a Republican stronghold. That goes a long way towards our victory - in fact, we only need one other state in addition to it. On the other hand, Obama and Clinton carry Illinois and New York, respectively. Both of these are traditionally Democratic strongholds. It's unlikely we'll be seriously challenged in either place. Finally, Edwards is the only candidate with any chance of winning the South. Both of the other candidates are life-long Northerners. It's also incredibly important to win the South, particularly the Mississippi river states. These states, for the past 10 presidential elections, have always voted for the winner. Edwards would win in a landslide. Obama would win. Clinton might win.

For all these reasons, John Edwards should be next Dem. Presidential Candidate (ideally with Obama as VP)

2: Why We Can't Leave

One of the fundamental tenets of the modern 'Progressive' movements is speedy and total troop withdrawal from Iraq. This policy, if followed, would be stupid, disastrous, dishonorable, and immoral. It's obvious that we made a mistake entering Iraq, but we cannot now leave.

This policy would be stupid and disastrous in that it would not serve American interests. To be sure, American soldiers would die. However, Iraq would pretty much collapse into factional civil war - or, depending on who you ask, go even deeper thereinto. In this state, it would destabilize the rest of the Middle East, spreading chaos even wider. Further, it would provide a haven for Muslim extremists. This is very, very suboptimal.

This policy would be dishonorable in that our country has made a commitment to the people of Iraq. We destroyed their government and we have a responsibility to them to bring it back and to safeguard their people until security is restored. We must not leave the course of honor simply because it is too difficult to travel.

This policy would be immoral in that it would directly lead to civil war along ethnic lines, probably degenerating into an ethnic genocide-like situation. It would be akin to the UN pulling out of Rwanda.

There seems to be an idea on the left that the Army is for something other than fighting, that soldiers should not be put in danger, should not die. I honestly don't understand this. What would you expect to happen, honestly? Why should we have an army unless to go into harm's way?

3: Current Reading

I'm currently reading two different books. First, the classic Dune by Frank Herbert, and second, The History of England by Charles Macaulay Babbington. Both are quite good. The first is a really epic space opera-like thing that is justifiably a classic. It's well-written, epic, atmospheric, and excellent. The second is a history of a short part of English history, the Glorious Revolution. The book was written around 1850, and it's pretty biased. However, it's really interesting historically, and it's probably the best-written history book I have ever read. The man writes with an epic scale and a skill with words that just staggers the mind. I love it.

4: miscellanies

Oh man nothing here I don't think. This is already fucking long enough, not like anyone will read this.

Final Frontier

According to Wiki, around 100 people have died in connection to the various space programs of the world - 29 astronauts and around 70 ground crew members. that's really rpretty tempering to think of, that that many people have given their lives to this thing.

But at the same time i really do believe at the bottom of my heart that space travel is imperative for the human race, both on a pure species survival level and almost on a spiritual level. I think space travel almost begins to approach something spiritual for me - not quite of the same magnitude as religious devotion, but of the same general dimensions.

Communism is dead!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/6456959.stm

So, can we declare Communism officially dead now? China was pretty much the last Communist power on Earth, and with this, they've almost entirely gotten rid of that. Basically, Cuba is the only one left, and they're not going to get too much more done.

Also, this should help stabilize China's economy, protect the farmers (seriously, Chinese poor get fucked so hard), and maybe increase civil liberties a little.

You will not pass!

I just realized, there's a grammatical error in lord of the rings.

gandalf tells the balrog, "you shall not pass!" However, shall is only appropriate with first person. therefore, gandalf should have said "You will not pass!"

Wwwwhat?

.Went to wondercon today. it was good. I picked up a TPB of Girl Genius (signed by Phil Foglio), 3 back issues of the Marvel Conan the Barbarian (quite possibly my favorite comic series ever - the only 0ther contender would probably be New Avengers, maybe Planetary), and an issue of Jimmy Olsen (superman is a dick lawl) Also I saw Robert, but Angela. Need to hang out with Robert more.

Also finally started on the engine. C on engine / B in Physics here I come!

I seem to really be getting apathetic nowadays. The only reason i am still doing any work outside of classes is college, because i don't wnat to limit my options. That may seem normal, but it's not.

There's a new anime magazine coming out soon, called Otaku USA. It's editor in chief is the AWESOME patrick macias. and comics will be done by Mistakes of Youth guys. Yeah, I'm excited. The only thing that would be better is if Daryl Surat is a columnist.

Illegal Primes

did you know that some numbers are actually illegal under US law?

Their binary forms represent executable files that are banned under US law (for example, DeCSS). Therefore, certain numbers are actually illegal.

If there was a president of Anime I would vote for Daryl Surat

Lately I've been listening a lot to this track, "In Anticipation of Your Insight into the Future". It's basically about 5 to 7 japanese music tracks (including the getter robo intro, which is awesome), book-ended by two intros read by, among others, Clarissa Graffeo of Anime World Order fame set to classical music. It's basically awesome.

I really like a lot of Patrick Macias' stuff, both in his blog and his books. I like his style of writing a lot, there's this aesthetic to it that really just i think is really cool. The whole Ministry of Darkness thing... it's really great. The only book I have of his is the Japanese Pulp Cinema one, which is both really great as a resource and a really interesting field in a lot of ways. I should get more - especially Japanese Schoolgirl Inferno, that will prolly be awesome.

I've also been thinking about why, exactly, I think Daryl Surat is so awesome. It's becoming dangerous, it's reached epic proportions. I like all the people on all the podcasts I listen to (well, I'm pretty sure Rym and Scott are at least a little arrogant, and Gerald is a bit of a dick). But Daryl Surat is incredibly funny and also incredibly knowledgeable and also gives really good reviews. I don't know, I guess I can't explain it. whatever.

We've been reading Hemingway in class, and that's another thing the aesthetic of which I like. It's just really spare and sparse, but it provides this really bright picture of just life. I like the picture that it paints, in many ways, and I like the way it paints it. That symbolism stuff is just gravy.

Emergency Packages

My suggestions for emergency packages for various contingencies.

ZOMBIE ASSAULT

Clothing - Leather jack, zipped up. Boots. Kneepads, optional. flexible pants with lots of pockets - the problem is you want flexibility, but also tight fit. flexibility is probably more important.

On person - carrying crowbar. machete and pistol on hips.

In pack - standard - collapsable shovel, rations, matches, lighter, iodine pills, medicine and first aid, seeds might be useful and they're always low space. Rifle slung over shoulder.

APOCALPYSE - breakdown of government/society

soft, comfortable jacket, flexible pants, comfortable shoes.

Carrying walking stick - needs to be strong, can be used as weapon/stick. pistol on one hip, bag of food (jerky, grain, similar). machete somewhere.

Pack - standard, with more seeds and maybe a few books (used as currency?)

Poetry Slam

This is the poetry slam.

Megatokyo

I gotta say, the latest megatokyo annoyed me. more so than usual, i mean.

Megatokyo has a lot of flaws. For one thing, it's pretty much avowedly a dating sim, which brings some problems to characteristics (or not problems, perhaps, so much as they are going to be retreading tropes). For another, it's never really funny - the worst parts of the comic are those where it seems to try to be (Largo, that robot girl, etc.). But in general the story is still pretty engaging, even though it is melodrama, so I continue reading it.

This latest one definitely annoyed me, though. It seemed to ascribe to a model of relationships that really seems to me to be not true. Maybe that's overstating it a little; let me explain what I mean.

Piro usually seems to be a realistic character. He's consistently written - maybe the things he does aren't things I would do, but they are things Piro would do (and yes I know that's a tautology and you know what I mean). Hell, even the beginning of this latest strip makes sense. Even if he's going to stand up for himself, he'll do it quietly. But after that... i think that that is something that only happens in songs. I think it's bullshit. maybe i'm wrong, maybe i'm right, but I don't see Nanakawakanakaknakaknak or Piro doing what they do.

What fuckin ever.

In other news nothing new is happening, the boolean stuff is still true. I got a haircut, i guess. thatttts life

cons

sometimes i really wish i could plan ahead more.

con season is one of those times.

fucking ay. i really want to go to as many cons as possible and should really get my ass in gear.

WHO IS RANDALL STUCKEY?

so i was going to make some big long post about boolean algebra and females, but then i didn't do it immediately, and now i'm tired and i have to do work and shit. suffice it to say it would have been extremely, extremely geeky and emo and shit like that. i could probably talk about my personal life but i dont think anyone would care or if they would that i would want to say anything or would have anything to say.

listening to anime world order. Daryl Surat is my motherfucking god. seriously, the man is a genius. He is doing a sort of gonzo journalism thing at an anime convention, the title of the segment is "The Modern Japanese Animation Convention is Decadent and Depraved".

Also liek Patrick Macias. and people like that are cool too.

There's a surprsing surfeit of information on the net about some things, though. like randall stuckey. I always find oblique references to him, but no specific things. He is like John goddamn Galt. Taht would be interesting, a parody of Atlas Shrugged in anime fandom.

I don't want to do my work. I have an outline and an essay to do. Son of a bitch.

Harry Potter Book 7

Harry shotgunned the rest of his Felix Felicis. "Tonight," he said, wiping his mouth, "I'm gettin' lucky."

The next morning, Harry stumbled down into the Gryffandor common room. "Don't talk," he told Ron, "I got a wicked hangover. I need some Jack. No, give me the whole bottle."

"Blimey! What happened?" asked Ron as he handed over a fifth of whiskey.

"Your sister happened," said Harry. "Twelve times."

Hermoine joined them moments later. "I can't remember anything from last night," she said rubbing her head, "And why did I wake up in your bed Harry?"

Harry winked at her. "That'd be one of the half-blood prince's potions, babe. Roofinus Maximus."

"Blimey!" said Ron, "That's the darkest of dark magic! Even He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named has ever used it!"

"That's why I can beat him," Harry said, winking at Ron. "You see, I have the ability to love. Again, and again, and again."

The bell rang and the girls filed out of their dorms, all slightly rosy cheeked and nodding at Harry. Harry ignored them.

"Blimey!" said Ron, "not all of them!"

"You two will be late for class," said Professor McGonnagal as she led out Buckbeak by his mane feathers through the portal, "And I'll see you in my office, Mr. Potter." She disapppeared.

"What was McGonnagal doing in the Gryffandor girl's dorms?" asked Hermoine, confused.

"Baby, the question you should be asking is: what wasn't she doing." said Harry.
