I hate a lot of things... but does that make me a bad person?
Oh dear fuck... this thing I've written... it's exploded like I can never imagine... as of writing this there are 828 favorites and 806 comments...
I so badly wish I could reply to every last one, but I sadly have other things I have on my plate right now too. So I want to clear up a few things about this so called "poem". So here we go...
First of all, I know it's not particularly well written. I wrote it in about 2 bloody minutes so give me a break there... please. I just read something about hate and how people blindly hate other people because of race, culture, age, sexual orientation and so on. I was angry that all that hate directed at people is still such a big part of society today. We call ourselves modern yet we choose to believe such backwards things, such as being gay means you're a servant of Satan that wants to bring about the end of the world.
Secondly, I know I missed a few things and I wish I added them because instead of saying something constructive I have hundreds of people telling me, oh you mention woman and child abuse but what about abuse against men... seriously? SERIOUSLY?? I ask, what about all the other things as well. I am still a human being and I miss and forget things, and maybe I should have added it, but then somebody would point something else out. Like pointing out it's not supposed to be in the philosophy section!! I mean come on people, you're not exactly restoring my faith in humanity here. I put it there because each of those things stems from a certain point of view or philosophy. And that is my thoughts on those philosophies. I also want to make it clear I do not hate the people who that in those ways, I pity them. They are missing out on a truly open world and I wish they could experience it for themselves. It seems those are the type of people that think that everyone must be the same and anyone different is other... well then it is there loss because minorities of all kinds, be they the sexual or racial minorities are usually some of the best people I've ever met.
Oh how I hate the ones that call this piece just a whiny tantrum, or lazy because I do nothing about it... well I see them complaining I don't do enough, but I don't exactly see them starting movements against those things either. I know it's a weak excuse, but I work on it in myself and in the people around me, I'm not John Lennon and I generally keep to myself to start with. So if your major issue with it is that I don't do anything about it, then why don't you?
And lastly... and most importantly, thank you to everyone that said positive things, and thank you to the ones that even though they may seem to be critical at least had something intelligent to say about it. I appreciate you most of all. I know it's not well written and the ones who said that straight at least were being honest and that I love!! I thank the ones that actually took time to look at my profile, and to read my other work. I believe that with the constructive criticism I can get better, and with the positive people I feel much better. And most of all, thank EVERYBODY who did comment and favorite it. I know that your hearts were in the right place at least .
It's been shown in 4 groups:
As a last last note, I just want to add that I truly am surprised about it's popularity. I didn't ever think anything that I wrote would ever be seen or liked by so many people. On a personal note, I don't even like it that much. I wish I put more thought into it and I wish I didn't miss out on some very important things.
My attempt at a return
I know I have been gone for far too long... and I don't know to how many of my messages I'll be able to respond and how long it will take. But things here were pretty downhill for a bit and now they're even more downhill. I got pretty close to rock bottom and it scared me...
Trying to pull my life and everything together again. Hopefully I can actually get that right. It's been far too long for me being here, a place where I always felt safe and accepted by beautiful and wonderful people. I have missed your words, I have missed your art, I have just missed being able to talk to you. Really if only I could explain how much insanity has entere
Busy busy busy...
So many shoots, so little time.
Uploads coming soon. Replies coming soon after.
Love you all. Have to run!
Ten Down
So thanks to everyone for just being amazing. Had to get that out the way first because it just had to be said.
So I've now uploaded 10 photographs as part of my Amateur Photography thing I'm attempting... I don't know what more to say. Thanks to every single person who has Favorited and commented and even those who did neither but still had a look :)
Sort of a small mini update. Wasn't a fan of having the previous journal up for too long... ... ... wow I'm just awkward.
The First 2016 Update
So here it is. 2016. It's finally arrived and it's quite something...
Small updates, I got a new camera. Although just a standard lens, which will have to suffice since I have spend the last money I'll have till the end of January. Either way I'm sure someone charitable will supply food and if possible fuel for me to get to work. Hahaha, although it has allowed me to start taking photography a little more seriously than I did before.
So I've posted up the first two photographs I took in a little mini shoot I did with a friend today. Hopefully they aren't terrible but with practice I hope to improve. I love black and white photography so yea

Sorry, but I just posted on your piece that you didn't mention men. In my defense, I've observed that whenever men are omitted from protected groups it is often deliberate.
