sailing smoothly

Soon there will be a new language forged through unity. Individualism has proven to be more of a hastle than anything else (neuroticism). Only through appreciation of that which is unlike us can we make this country a working whole again. This is the transfer of the many to the one. Nothing like this has ever been done. LLc 98.2

pretzel people

The issue with communication these days is that it misses things like tone, expression, various body language directives, as well as a host of other cognitive things we pick up as we interact directly with people. It is almost as if we have become avatars of ourselves in a world that is geared toward packaging no different than a bag of pretzels. We have become the independant, stand alone, individually wrapped representative of a self through the form of a pretty, packaged, pretzel. LLc 98.2

the ride

I was having a long day yesterday. I was feeling really bad and selfish about things. My whole frame was tilted just enough for me to feel like my head was going to pop. These things were true until I saw a man walking into the bank. He walked like a pretzel and had what seemed to be some form of multiple sclerosis. It is weird but I feel sometimes that there are waves of communication coming through me somehow. These communications may be imagined, they may even be leaning toward some form of psychosis. Needless to say, I suppose if one looks for these types of connections one could find them. However, these connections for me feel as though they have bulk, some sort of context within the greater scheme. Things can be strange indeed at times,but the ride is no less interesting because of it. LLc 98.2

How much has entertainment and the draw of commercialization taken us away from the reality of life? Have our lives been over taken by the realities of unreality?

..

Being this way really sucks!

The Secondary Life is not something that comes over time through experience. It is not something we get from reading a good book; that requires an investment in time and energy. No, The Secondary Life is based in mult-media transmissions. Through television, movies, and the internet we find our minds traveling off to the ficticious distance. The immediacy of media influence does much more than entertain us and influence us to buy things. It takes us to the place where we walk among the stars in situations they portray. We make comparisons to the fiction and feel either better or worse as a result. Some of us prefer to feel worse than others dictated by the kinds of programming they prefer. In time, this type of preference overrides the primary life that is based in reality. LLc 98.2

Advertisements are the unreality that exists within the reality frame of our social world. The influence of advertising is vast and limitless.
