our country should not be an oligarchy.
we gotta get rid of this citizen’s united garbage.

Hey! profiting off of other people’s suffering is bad.
Hey! profiting off of other people’s suffering is bad.
as is creating suffering so that you can profit off it.
we should do better things with our existence.
let’s start by not hurting people just to make money.
Bernie and Hillary
you may have noticed that I seem to support Bernie AND Hillary. that’s true.
I’d choose either of them over ben carson or the trump circus any day, or bush.
No Change is better than regression.
sometimes I wonder what if
sometimes I wonder what if anything I’m missing by just being me.
African Rhythms Remembered
2 hours last night, and one tonight, I remembered 36 (African) rhythms, with dozens more to go.
(I learned them gradually over “many” years, and at one point, wrote some of them down in rudimentary ways. months ago, I accidentally deleted all the notation (and every other microsoft file I had for the last 11 years.)
good thing I had already long since memorized all of them:)
only have about 50 more to go. learning things in such a way that you remember them for years is good-feeling.
other people’s opinions too
remember, other people’s opinions and feelings exist, and do matter,
but your own do very much as well.

Thought of the Day, 10 16 2015
normal people often leave me wanting more excitement.
creative weirdos who DON’T just do a little of it on top of their otherwise conventional life…, yeah. I’m judging, I know. I know.
I just love… people so into one thing, or many, that they don’t really bother with all that average social niceties stuff.
who’s got time for it, or the interest, when there are for more compelling things to learn and do.
like insane music, and togetherness of jams, and Cs F#s 5s 7s jam.
BE
it isn’t about being visible and noticed by other people, the mob. first it’s about BEING.
I wrote and write marching band music fun fun
I wrote marching band music (hey, it pays and it’s fun) lately.
surprisingly enjoyable. one of the songs is sorta supposed to sound like danny elfman, but not BE him. curious. (I’m surprised how easy “sounding like someone else” was, but maybe it was luck. hey, I don’y really write “non-percussive” music EVER, ya know?
lets try more stuff
there “appear” to be some things I simply haven’t done enough to KNOW< or UNDERSTAND WHY or THAT I would enjoy them, what they have to offer… which means I must just settle down to doing them, several times, possibly a ton of times, BEFORE I judge that I hate them…
perhaps some day, I can truly know I am not interested…
but first,
it seems…
I’ll need to um, give them more of a chance…
I’m a teenage boy still, in other words.
but let’s not self-judge,
growing up, heh, no need to judge, it’s life, we live it. everythings ok.
let’s keep living.
