The Royal Distraction

Do people value their personal opinions over factual information, or are facts just generally populated opinions? The truth in today’s world is hidden in plain sight with minor distractions, distorting individuals awareness instantly. People are creatures of habit and based on this known fact it does not take much to lure most from the truth.

Media propaganda is a very dangerous weapon used against the masses. We now live in a world where seeing is believing and to think that with all this technology and access to vital information, individuals are quickly sold at the first performance that is displayed to them without checking the facts. It is sad to say that the more truth surrounding people the more they will not notice it because society is under the spell of ”Eyes Wide Shut”. We praise all that we don’t have and pay no attention to what is right in front of us.

Unfortunately, the only way for the sheeple to wake up is for them to experience some sort of disaster or a situation so alarming that the only thing they will search for is the truth. America is on a path to pure devastation and this can be avoided by unifying with one another in an unbiased way and seeing everything for what it truly is.

8 Ill-advised Reasons for Getting Married, 1792

The History of Love

What would you say makes the most solid foundation for a marriage? Trust? Financial security? The sort of profound and death-defying passion that would make Jack & Rose weep with envy? [let’s face it, they are the modern-day Romeo & Juliet, and I’m only moderately ashamed to admit it.]

It was in the latter half of the eighteenth century that the concept of marrying for love began to gain currency in the English popular mindset, and the younger generation expected a bit more say in who their partner might be. Inevitably, centuries of parental tyranny in these matters meant that alliances negotiated in terms of acreage and titles continued to sweep many reluctant couples to the altar.

Here, however, we have a brilliant print suggesting that many people cannot be trusted with such a momentous decision, giving a range of slightly less conventional – but still remarkably unwise – reasons for marriage. Take…

Fairytales Of Slavery: Societal Distinctions, Technoshamanism, and Nonhuman Personhood

“How long have you been lost down here?
How did you come to lose your way?
When did you realize
That you’d never be free?”
–Miranda Sex Garden, “A Fairytale About Slavery”

One of the things I’ve been thinking about, lately, is the politicization of certain spaces within philosophy of mind, sociology, magic, and popular culture, specifically science fiction/fantasy. CHAPPiE comes out on Friday in the US, and Avengers: Age of Ultron in May, and while both of these films promise to be relatively unique explorations of the age-old story of what happens when humans create machine minds, I still find myself hoping for something a little… different. A little over a year ago, i made the declaration that the term to watch for the next little while thereafter was “Afrofuturism,” the reclaimed name for the anti-colonial current of science fiction and pop media as created by…
