About Me

Strange, clever, dreaming. Not really much to say about myself. Not releasing too many personal details. I prefer to stay unknown...AND MYSTERIOUS!

Social Networking

Today's Topics:
  • I don't think this needs explaining...
 So social networking has taken our world by storm in the last five years or so.  Yes, I know it existed before that, but I'd say it's only become really popular in that time frame.

Anyway, it's changed our world.  A lot.   At first it made it easier to commune with friends.  That's probably all anyone had planned, back then.  But social networking slowly started integrating into our lives, changing even more.

Well I was planning on doing another meaningful post about current issues, but I figured "Meh, nah."  So I'm just going to say stuff about me, instead.  Naturally.

Words of Wisdom

I'm still debating within my head what to blog about next, but in the mean time, I have something to share.  I was browsing the World of Warcraft forums, and I found this post.  If only the world was like this, it would be so much of a better place.



"There's many things I'd like to respond to in this thread... but instead of joining the fray, I'm going to post a brief, subjective though-belch as a kind of a pallatte-cleanser (I hope).

I find that in current political discourse, we do not debate what our ideals are and what values we aspire to uphold as a society, a nation or a planet. Instead, we split ourselves into convenient, binary oppositions and demonize the "other side", arguing that "they" conspire to dominate us, and that by eliminating their ideas we will, essentially, fix everything that is wrong.

In this sense, WoW often seems to me to be a striking analog of our real life situation, just with a much more interesting backdrop of dragons & magic & stuff.

Please carry on."
