The Big/Little P

[Insert Joke Here]

Politics.  I hate it/them.  Most people do.  But most people can't seem to stop talking about it.  Everyone has their opinions and everyone else's is usually wrong.

Now before you think this is me going to be me blabbing about what I think about whatever, it's not.  Honestly, I don't care.  I don't care, because no matter what I think it doesn't matter.  Why does it not matter?  Because no matter what, nothing I say or do will matter.

But, yes it will you say.  Let your voice be heard.  Vote!  Every vote counts!  Nope.  We live in a system.  A system that makes the rich and powerful, more rich and powerful.  Great minds don't really matter, because they will never have the money or the power to get their voice out there.

You may say that the great minds will find a way.  Not always.  There are times that they may, but mostly it won't.  A lot of this is due to the fact that, at least in the US, we live in a two party system.  That's a shame.  Everyone should have an equal shot, but they don't.

But in the end, this isn't what this is about.  This is about the people that let politics rule their life.  People that go after other people because of their "view".  Why?  Nothing is that important that you go against your fellow person.  If you think your view or a view of another person is more important than other people then you need to reevaluate your way of thinking.

People need to relax.  Yes, there are views and thoughts that are important.  The simple concept that everyone no matter what their gender, age, religion, color of their skin, etc. should be treated equal is a great/important view.  But there are people that will argue with that too.  Why?  People will be people I guess.

And in the end, I haven't voted in awhile.  So, too a lot of people my thoughts and opinions don't even matter.  That's fine.  Have a nice day :)

The Early Years

When I was born my parents lived in a mobile home in Hilbert, WI.  They had a cat before I was born and it didn't take to kindly to having me around all of a sudden.  They had to get rid of it as it had a tendency of trying to sleep on my face, which a baby tries enough to kill itself when it's young but having a cat, unintentionally I'm sure, trying to help with it wasn't good.  After awhile they decided they needed a bigger house and rented one in Bay Ridge which is in Appleton, WI.  They didn't actually sell the mobile home, but rented it instead so they were able to make some money from that as well as their jobs. My earliest memory was when I was three and I was playing with some Matchbox cars on the floor in the morning and my mom in a rush to get to work accidentally stepped on one of my favorite cars, crushing it.  An odd memory to be your first, but none the less that's what it is.  My best friend while living there was a girl name Ashley.  ...

Opening My Mouth

When I was younger and getting bullied, one of the things I was encouraged to do was talk to the guidance counselor.  Normally this is a good thing to do.  If you're in trouble you should talk to someone that can help. Now, I won't say it's the counselor's fault, but talking to her did not help at all.  In fact all it really did was cause everything to get worse.  At some point I just stopped talking.  I made some changes, got some payback, and the one time it started happening during my Freshman year, I didn't last too long before taking matters into my own hands (well fist). The one thing that I (unfortunately) learned from that was that saying how I feel is a bad thing.  I know I've most likely talked about this before, but it is really important.  It's something that has never really disproven itself over my life. I take the 2 instances I've told someone that I like them.  Yes, there are only two instances that this has happened.  Both...

Thanos Was Right

Spoilers for Avengers Infinity War Below First off, a movie is a movie.  It's fake, and even when it's based on true events it is still fake.  But sometimes you see something about a movie and it makes you think about the modern world and human nature and it kind of makes you think.  Avengers Infinity War would not really be one of those movies but then I saw this article and I actually had to disagree with it. The article argues that Thanos' solution of eliminating half of the universe's population was a plot hole.  If he had ultimate power, why wouldn't he just double all of the resources?  The simple answer is that the movie needed a villian and Thanos was already established, and though he did it because some lady didn't want him (that lady being Death) in the comics, they still gave him a good "evil" reason to do it in the movie.  He witnessed his planet destroy itself as it exhausted its resources even after he warned them that it was going ...
