Thanks for everyone's concern, unfortunately as of late I can't bring myself to ravage a young boy's ass, let alone post.
Maybe I'll get the energy to post at length soon, but right now I'm just watching and waiting.
The only thing I can say is I urge everyone to drop any political or religious agenda you have right now and work united. There are people dead underneath tons of rubble, and people are angry that Hillary Clinton is showing her face, or that kids don't salute our flag (because of religious beliefs, just in case you didn't know)...how the fuck is that helping anyone?
We're all in this together, don't sweat the small shit because that just takes our minds off the bigger picture...lives have been lost, lives are at stake.
Also, I understand you need a vacation from all the pain and suffering, but to complain that it's still all over the news...this has changed the fucking world. This has affected people's lives in ways most of us can NEVER imagine. But because you want to watch fucking Friends, you say it's time to move on? Shut the fuck up and pop in a tape. This is happening whether you like it or not, whether you want to face it or not.
Finally, this pacifist vs. warmonger bullshit has got to stop. I, personally, am not going to fight in this war, in any war. But I fully support everyone that is going to fight in this war, I'm not judging them, it's incredibly fucking noble of them. But as much as I respect your decision, respect mine. I didn't ask for this, you didn't ask for this, just as much as the people that died at the WTC didn't ask for this. They just wanted to fall in love, maybe have a family, grow old, and die on their own time. They didn't want their lives ended by fucking politics, by the fact that people OTHER THAN THEMSELVES can't live in this world in peace. If it's your decision to give your life to this country, I support you fully. I'd like to keep a hold on to my life and do what I can from home. Respect that, and that's it. Same goes for the shitheads that aren't supporting our military in this. This is, plain and simple, us trying to ensure that something like this never happens again. We're not getting involved in foreign affairs, anything objectionable, THEY BLEW US UP. WE ARE STOPPING THAT. Hug a fucking soldier, they're doing the job that needs to be done when we need it most.
I've been writing this so long, I've lost my train of thought, but I want all those of you who don't think that you're helping enough out there that by that simple thought, you're helping more than you could imagine. Your empathy is remarkably beautiful, and the world thanks you. Moral support is just as valuable as anything else right now...look, it's only been six days and already people are bickering about petty shit. You're a rare breed, and you're doing great as it is.
So thanks for your concern, I'll be around, if anyone wants to talk to me, MulderManX or SlfCalledNowhere on AIM. Keep giving blood long after this is all over, as you can see, it's extremely important. Support NY, support your local police and firemen, drop your fucking politics and unite as one.
I'll get back to kidtouching soon, in the meantime, I'll wave my flag and just think about a 5 year old boy sitting and spinning on the flag pole.
You all fucking rock, I hope you're all okay. Much love.
