It's absolutely horrifying to me how atrociously backwards and upside down our world has become over the last 20 years. It sucked before, for sure, and honestly the last thirty have been bad, and the last 40 have been driving many to drink over our most recent history.
Humans are up shit's creek as we use our paddles to clobber each other over the head with our personal dogma. A certain Dr. Seuss story comes to mind, something about paddle battles in a puddle, involving a poodle and a noodle. Has a computer algorithm ever concocted anything reaching that level of intentional absurdity? Maybe the Internet qualifies.
My 31st birthday is just around the corner and I feel compelled to spill my thoughts in public forum. I'm astonished by how different our collective virtual life looks in 2020 than it did in 2005, when I started this blog. The social consciousness has expanded to include anyone with a birthday and the ability to distinguish blurry bicycles in a broken cube of boxes. Memes abound in perpetuity. Gif/Jif or gold/blue, the binaries populate every screen and stipulate simplistic thinking.
Our techie Big Brother has temporarily and conspicuously propped up Bid Daddy and now we are all going to pay the price for their mendacity, as we have been since we got off the boat and were shipped South to serve our sentence for the misfortune of being poor and unaffiliated.
