Liars Cost Money

Guess what I heard this morning, I heard that he's the freak. I think I may safely presume that until now I was the freak. And I heard that now he has to restore my image. If my image needs to be restored, then it must have been destroyed again since the last time I heard that someone had to restore my image. I wonder how many times I've heard these kinds of comments now. It must be over a hundred since 2012. So when I hear that someone has to restore my image, I start counting down to the next violation against my image. Look at the timing of this 'restoration.' The BC NDP should be upset about it because when someone bashes my image at election time it causes people to vote against me. This is how elections are won and it proves that they fall drastically short of expressing the true will of the people. Who is he? I bet you all know. You know who this image violator is from your TV or radio, the devices that were filled with stolen content from my past erased and since restored web posts. Now there is a crater in their syndication schedule that they need to fill with more lies and half truths. I bet they would self destruct if they ever had to tell the truth about me for longer than ten seconds. In court they insist on the whole truth when you swear the oath. This is because half truths are even more evil than lies. Half truths have an element of authenticity in them that adds more weight to their dishonest half. For instance, 'yes, they're all his songs and blogs but he's such a monster that the only way to make money from his work is to take it all away from him and give it to our rich stars.' Something like that, anyway, right? And that's probably far more polite than the horrific lies I've heard about my fictitious criminal record and my non-existent periods of incarceration. These vicious stars never deserved a penny of your honest money and I can't wait for them to all die and go to hell with their lying broadcasting buddies. How much money have all my songs made on the radio for them since I rewrote them? And how much money have my blogs made for them on the TV since I rewrote them? Maybe we're headed for an economic downturn because of people who would rather invest in dead-end fraud out of personal spite than put their money behind talent. I could have made a fortune to sustain our economy since 2010, but they drove me off the web in '07 so they could have their stupid fraud party. And now that party is over. 6:38pm: I'm disappointed to hear about more lies since I posted the main portion of this this morning. Some of the lies I heard about this week were 'she said he wrote on your cock' and they said 'you're last.' Do they ever write comedy scripts or songs or poems? Here is my most recent effort: Light of Truth. I will be spending this Friday alone as usual, but I sense that God is with me. My life might not appear very entertaining, but people must have thought my songs and blogs were fun or they wouldn't have gathered into such large venues for them. Have a good weekend.

The Smell of Trouble

I am passing up a trip to Costco with Jackie on her last day at my building to come here and deal with what I consider to be an urgent problem. Yesterday, on the way home from here, a young Oriental woman pinched her nose at the sight of me in the street. This is a very rude and hostile gesture to receive from a total stranger and I have already complained about this kind of behavior in my YouTube video Okay Corral. If this signals some new assault that extends all the way through the summer before the offenders are finally rounded up and incarcerated, I want to discuss it right now, at length, and try to nip it in the bud. I have had it with this kind of treatment from strangers when I'm walking down the street, minding my own business. If I catch you holding your nose at me, I am going to ask you about it now. And chances are that I will have my camera with me and I am going to snap a photo of your face and post it on the web to try to find out who you are. I don't think it's fair for a hostile person like you to know who I am when I don't know who you are. And I'm going to raise my voice at you because you provoked my anger with this inappropriate slight. I am going to probably yell at you in front of everyone on the street because I want to draw public attention to the abuse I suffer here. So if you want to star in my next YouTube video in this capacity, just hold your nose at me when I'm minding my own business, walking down the street. I don't know if I should hate such people because I doubt they do any thinking for themselves. My guess is that they are poisoned by an irresponsible media that wants to weasel out of admitting fault in a horrible crime at the further expense of their victim. And broadcast signals are so thoroughly mind altering that their consumers may be helpless against the media's own unspeakable hate. Nonetheless, I will still bash you hard for it out of self defense. And I will capture your image to commemorate the event and to try to trace the origin of the assault. Maybe some crooked star like Jerk Leno pays people to behave like this. Or maybe a schoolteacher is corrupt and passes it on to the students. Or it could be the media. Or it could be relatives and employees of the local fraud industry. The best way to find out is to have the face of the offender online in my account where he or she may be identified. After that, I may at least know who to direct my response to. To Christy Clark, as you can see, I did not vote for you. I voted in the interests of the people here. I believe I will not need disability benefits in the future, so I did not vote NDP for myself but for my neighbors here. I will probably no longer be residing in this province by the time you start passing your reforms so I will be unaffected by them. But if you can just give me one hate free summer here before I leave, I will take back everything I said about you and even draw a new cartoon of you that is a little more flattering. This hate is always fueled by the crime of fraud with my work and the way to combat it is to throw all the offenders in jail. People holding their noses at me in the street mark the start of it and it usually extends through the whole summer before the offenders are rounded up and incarcerated in September or October. I propose that we simply throw them all in jail now and leave them there for the next five months to give me a break this year, after complaining online about this problem for five years in a row, and let me depart from here on reasonably friendly terms. I have been writing some truly great new songs and I won't be sharing them until I leave town. I think I have shared enough of my music here now, some six or seven hours of it, to know that sharing my songs here is tantamount to flushing them down the toilet. My music is too good to waste on a media manipulated crowd of artist haters. It breaks my heart to think of how much fine music has been ruined by the crime of fraud with my work. So if you're a fan of my rock, just hold on until I get out of here and I promise I won't disappoint you with my new songs. 6:11pm: I have added another script to my comedy blog, We're All Dying, which looks familiar to me: Trust Fund Tracy. I think I already shared something like it. And it's pretty good, so those NBC pricks probably stole it from me ten years ago. They don't look so cute without all my words in their mouth, do they? Some greasy looking guy made a suspicious gesture outside the library here about five minutes ago. I didn't catch it because I didn't have my eye on him, but those Nasco scabs and the local media are filthy from fraud and totally insolent towards the talent that feeds them. Their smugness is really galling for me to deal with on such a constant basis. And did I see a group of women listening to Madonna out in the park the other day? I'm pretty sure Madonna went to prison in 2014.

BC's Hate

Hey, everyone, look who BC chose for their next premier above. Maybe this might give you some idea of the hate that the local media have created against their fraud victim in the last ten years here. All I have to do is say I dislike one of the candidates and they get elected. Maybe now you can have a sense of the hate I've been dealing with here in Vancouver ever since I started writing popular music and comedy and sharing it on the web here. The more popular my online posts are, the more I hated I am by the local crowd. But those Crystalids and Shards and that crooked ass who stole my blogs and Nickleback and fucking Blue Rodeo are all here playing concerts at the stadiums with my work. I am going to take this election result as a most personal insult and I will carry it with me to the United States when I leave. 12:23pm: Who did the Hell's Angels back in this BC election? That might give one side the winning edge, eh? I never saw so much sickening corruption in all my life since I moved to BC: MP's getting arrested, premiers being searched by the RCMP, mayors getting fired. It's easy to tell who really runs the show around here. And I've written a little poem to commemorate this day. I write verses faster when I'm upset. I'll post the link to it from this page as soon as I type it in. And keep an eye on Leonard Cohen and make sure he doesn't steal it. Did anyone punish him for stealing Buck Henry from me in 2007 or am I supposed to bear the burden of that crime too? Oh, and what miserable lies were spun about me to discredit me as soon as I made public my political position? I'm sure we'll find out in a few years, when no one cares about it anymore. Here is the link to the new poem: Rogue's Paradise. 5:14pm: I'm back after making another recording of the depravity in my home. I'm sure that if I put all this material together onto a fifteen minute video, everyone will know why I left Vancouver - when the time comes. Did anyone look into that curious comment I spoke of yesterday, the one saying, only a few, mate? Sounded like a rich rock star confessing that he stole more than one of my songs. But that's not news around here, eh? Rich stars stealing from a poor artist on the web? No one thinks that's a crime around here, it seems. In fact, they think I'm at fault for it half the time, like when some lying cunt tells everyone behind my back that she wrote on my cock. When did this happen again? Just in time for the election! What a coincidence. I was wondering how long it would take for someone to lie about my cock again. It's been almost four months since Blue Rodeo lied about my cock and were then busted with a whole album of my old songs (Small Miracles). You'll need to lie about my cock more than that if you want to stay ahead of my new songs, poems, and comedy scripts. Stars like Tom Hanks shit on my honest father's military record as a World War Two combat veteran. They laughed at my sweet mother's prayers to God on behalf of her poor innocent son. They got my older brother to make a fool out of himself on American television and they got my younger brother to bash me on my birthday. (Yes, Roger, I heard you blubbering about how I 'hurt' you. You mean by defending myself against your fraud with my posts? Did that hurt you when I defended myself against your evil plot to throw me in jail when I'm innocent? Maybe you should run for premier out here.) They break up my personal relationships and they destroy my reputation with lies when I look for work. Does anyone vote for anything out here but the destruction of an innocent poet? Can you imagine how rich I'd be if I would have gotten paid for all those hours of music they stole out of my YouTube account? I'd be a fucking millionaire instead of having to live in a hellhole and make videos of how horrible it is. And this must be acceptable to everyone because they keep going back to the TV and radio for more. Who decides elections? Do you think it's you? I think it's your lying TV. They favor one side and give it the appearance of being the better choice and then everyone just votes along with it. Fine. At least I tried. But let me tell you local voters that I think you made a mistake by putting a conservative in charge at this time. I don't need the TV to think for me, I think for myself. And when it comes to crime control, I'm conservative. I never vote conservative because I put people ahead of profits, but if a left-wing party ever wanted to get tough on crime, I'd vote for it first. I have lived long enough to figure out why conservative governments slash social spending. If you're a worker who feels cheated by social spending, you probably think they're doing it to win you over. Not so. They are doing it because of a secret downturn in the economy that will ultimately lead to higher unemployment. Since they anticipate more people will depend on social programs in the near future, they want to trim them down so that they don't have to pay as much to support all the new unemployed workers. I've already seen this happen at least three times in my life. I keep track of things. I don't just let the information of today push out the information from yesterday. So when you end up getting shafted following your lay-off, just remember that you voted for it. And remember that the TV influenced you to vote that way because those corporate kings who rule us so mercilessly own all the TV stations. This experience has all but destroyed my faith in democracy. I'd rather not have my government depending on a dishonest media that plagiarizes my content and smears my image with vicious lies. I'm tired of having my image fucked with every time I share my political opinion during an election. Right now I think our democracy is a full of shit failure. Here is my latest comedy post: Twitocracy.

A Vote for Democracy

I was saddened to learn of my residence's worker's upcoming departure yesterday. Jackie, who you might know from my YouTube video The Street to Enlightenment, is just about the nicest and most dedicated social worker I've ever met. She is the one who found a bed for my room and I know it wasn't easy because beds are seldom donated to charity. She cooks for us and supplies us with coffee and always has a smile for us when we walk by her office. Her new employer ought to be highly pleased with her. I've just come from the voting place and I voted for Melanie Mark of the NDP. Power to the people! Workers should know that they are allowed to take time off from work to vote today if it is necessary. I hope you will exercise your democratic right to vote because it is just about the only power we have. Democracy works best when we all vote. Since late last month I have been forced to make recordings of ongoing outbursts of violence in my home. I have not shared them online because they are rather unpleasant. Instead I have made them available to the administrators of my building to show how bad things are getting there and to help them home in on the culprit. The videos show a situation that is teetering on disaster and if some of my co-tenants end up going to the hospital from all the loud, aggressive posturing now, I will come out unscathed. I will then have to share this video evidence with the world to show you all the trouble signs which were dismissed in favor of a violent offender. When I visited Jackie yesterday, I told her a little extra about myself. I told her that I am not a violent person, I am an artist. I may fantasize about violence but I never act on it. An artist by nature wants to make others feel good, not hurt them. My father came back from World War Two half crazy and some of my older brothers turned out a little aggressive, but I was always rather passive and mostly just wanted to draw or read. Violent crime is the one crime for which I have zero tolerance. I don't want to deal with some fool who wants to rule me with his fist for any length of time. If everyone were like these guys, we'd still be living in the Stone Age. And quite often, this violence is encouraged by a romantic relationship with the wrong kind of woman - if you know what I mean. In that instance, I think the whole couple should be held responsible and punished if necessary. Speaking of violent crime, didn't a Dateline host go to prison for assault in 2013? Assault is a violent crime, isn't it? Well, maybe the media might not share my views about how to deal with violent offenders if they like to commit such offenses, themselves. On a psychic note, with respect to my online posts, I was almost asleep last night when I was jarred back to consciousness by a cigarette voice with a British accent saying, just a few, mate. Just a few what? Just a few bloody what, mate? I hope someone out there manages to decipher this cryptic message for me. I have a hunch it points to more crime with my music by a band that was already rich rich rich before I came along and shared my hobbies on the web while I was unemployed. I have a decent idea for a new comedy script but I need to go home and put it together first. I'll try to post it before the end of the day. 2:53pm: I'm back in the library with my latest script in my back pocket. I could expand it more, but you'll get the idea. The astute observer will also see the connection between my idea for this script and my current living situation, as detailed in this post. I'll add the link from here as soon as I type it in. (Here it is: Time Portal/Colonization's Culprits.)

The Crime of Being Unemployed

Before I get into another unpleasant issue, I should say that I saw the most charming thing the other day, the girls at the school were out playing their xylophones as I walked by. I enjoyed their concert and I think their teacher is pretty cool. Is crime control an election issue? I think crime is a severe problem in Vancouver. People must wonder how I get ripped off and slandered so much. If they came to see the concentrated criminality of my area with their own eyes, they'd quickly know why. I don't want to pass judgement on it too much because I'm not sure what else can be done about the crime here, except perhaps to invest more money in jails, but I think the way to deal with an offender is to lock him up so he can cause no more trouble and the local media disagrees with me: they think offenders should be turned into superstars on the TV and radio with material stolen out of my online accounts. Am I an offender? What's my offense? Smoking ghangi? No, that's practically legalized now. What about being unemployed? Yes, that must be my offense. And what is the punishment for being unemployed when you write hit songs and popular punchlines and share them on the web? It must be to have all of your work stolen away from you and put into the hands of vicious frauds who use it to destroy your life. Is that the policy, Christy? Am I a criminal for being unemployed? I bet you'd like my brother Roger. He's your kind of people. I found a note on my bathroom mirror a few days ago after waiting several hours to use it for a bath. It said: I can go to rehab but your stupidity is in your genes. Is that what you think of the disabled, Christy? That's what your benefactor thinks of us. And you let him move right into my home to insult me with these words. Do you think he's a better citizen for trying to make money from crime rather than going to the government for a handout? Who pays for all the drugs and crime here anyway? Isn't it largely the Ontario taxpayer through federal transfer payments? And what happens when you have a large cash flow like that going into one province? Aren't there going to be a few people who want to get rich from it? How do you suppose the Ontario taxpayer would want that money spent? Wouldn't they want you to build more jails with it instead? Do you want to discourage out-of-province undesirables from coming here to 'find themselves' through my example? Let me help you with that right now. I was attracted by the natural beauty of Vancouver when I came here from Toronto in 1995 with the intention of building a decent future for myself. I have lived here for twenty-two years now and I've only been to Stanley Park once. I have never been to Whistler or Grouse Mountain. And I drove all the way to the suspension bridge with my girlfriend back in the 90's but we thought the admission fee was a little too steep. Other than that, I've spent almost the whole time in what I might best describe as a sewer. And I have never known such crushing depression in all my life as what I have experienced on the streets of this city. Hey, I write comedy, eh? Why can't I have a decent life with a good looking wife and a nice home and a good job like Rob Petrie? Why can't I get a job with my talent instead of having my unemployment used as 'moral' leverage to take away all my work and turn it into fraud? WHY DON'T YOU ASK THE FORMER 'HEAD WRITER' OF SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE IF SHE'S OUT OF PRISON NOW? I THINK HER NAME IS TINA FEY. This is a very serious question. It shows how out of control the crime is here. I think it's about time we did something to address it. Back to concert news, did I see a poster for a U2 show? I worked on the last U2 show and I must complain over how I was treated. I did not appreciate being tripped while I carried plywood. Nor did I like being singled out to spend half the concert by myself at the extreme far end of the stadium. If I got within arm's reach of Bono with a hunk of wood, I'd find it challenging to resist the compulsion to break it over his head. Why didn't he know I was the author of my work when the Crystalids had it? I thought rock stars like him knew everything. Hey, maybe he did know and he's a fucking asshole like the rest of them! And when did that Joshua Tree album come out? 1993? Who's been writing all the rock hits since then? Right. The guy makes me feel violent. Is that why he's coming here for another show? Oh, serves me right for being unemployed, right? I don't think having a job and saving your money is a sign that you are saved by God. The focus of this mindset is too worldly. I'll tell you why that work ethic took over, not because it is spiritual but for precisely the opposite reason, because it is practical. Without the work ethic, our focus was on the afterlife, which caused conditions here to deteriorate under the church. So I think the work ethic was introduced to make our focus more worldly and less spiritual, in order to have more progress in this world. It is a very practical solution that has raised our standard of living considerably over the last five centuries, but it is altogether practical and not the slightest bit spiritual. I think it is important to remember that Christ's message was a spiritual one which dismissed material considerations. When you get to the end of your time here, you will find your RRSP useless. 2:56pm: This extra note may be of interest to Melanie Mark from my constituency. The honest tenants in my building have received such negligent treatment from the Lookout Emergency Aid Society that my building's manager and the landlord are taking steps to terminate their contract with the charity. We are tired of people who live far away in comfortable homes having the power to make us miserable in our home by sending us their personal favourites from the Living Room Drop In Center. The Living Room has a very bad reputation now, with the police showing up there every second day, and we would like to draw our tenants from a better location. I have a feeling that this will improve my life by giving my landlord more control to evict problem tenants. There is no need to worry over the welfare of an evicted tenant from my building. He or she can quickly and easily find a cheap hotel room elsewhere where welfare is welcome. I'm grateful to the Lookout for taking me in five years ago but I wish they'd hire more people like one of the tenants in our building. He is street smart and bright and can gather a lot from seeing small details. I sometimes suspect that they prefer to hire workers with no experience or insight into the behaviour of street people, in order to punish us for being unemployed. If so, it would be the kind of insanity that resulted from having a corrupt government. But I doubt that it would help to reject the NDP now. Maybe that would only make things even worse. Besides, I won't be here for much longer and I might as well not make too many waves for the ones I'll be leaving behind here. So I'll be containing my statements to this blog for the rest of the year. I don't want them uglying up my comedy posts just because the damn media won't report all the crime and punishment of their stars for stealing my work.

Fraud's Best Friend

I've been receiving generally positive feedback about my latest cartoon posts, featuring Wally the Street Squirrel. This is another resurrected character from my past, but perhaps one which escaped the grasp of those bums who copy and paste my work - at least partly. [May 6: I vaguely recall finding one of these strips in my brother Roger's account back in '07. Is this accurate?] I know I inadvertently rewrote all three of the strips I posted this month from an earlier date, but maybe I didn't share all of them the first time. The ones who stole this work might have been saying nasty things to explain my absence from the web as I worked on these cartoons. Unlike them, I start with a blank page. It takes a couple hours to figure out my script and then another couple of hours to decide how to best illustrate it. After that, I must go and download whatever images I need to help me with my figures and backgrounds. I need to use the store computer for that and it's about a one hour round trip on foot. Then when I get home I must start by penciling in the script and making sure all the words fit well into their squares. That takes about an hour. Then I must start sketching in the pictures and making sure everything looks right in pencil. That takes about four or five hours. Finally, I'm ready to go over everything with a Pilot 'fineliner' marker. It's slow going to keep everything nice and tight on the page. It ends up taking a few hours. And now I color my work. Coloring doesn't look like a very big job on a little 8 1/2" X 11" page, but it actually takes a long time to cover it with the point of a pencil crayon. It takes hours to color everything. The whole enterprise ends up taking anywhere from twelve to twenty-four hours of constant labor and I don't have time to go to the library and post a blog saying I'm not in jail while I'm doing it; I'm too absorbed by the work. But I'm taking a little break from it at the moment to discuss some other more serious matters. Elections make me cringe because of the influence they give the media. This is the media that ganged up on me to broadcast their news reports in rhyming verse back when I first shared my verses in 2007. This is the media who tell everyone to worship fraud bands like Blue Rodeo who they know to have stolen at least one full album of my songs since 2007. And while they tell you all to love and worship these monstrous lying hateful creeps who can't write their own hits, they subtly instruct you to reject me when I'm the real talent and I'm totally innocent of any wrongdoing. They have such contempt for virtue that the best way to punish them is to make them see the truth. Truth makes them cry out in agony. It is the worst torture they can endure. They've invested so much time and effort in the vain construction of their artificial universe that truth strikes them as some kind of doomsday device that needs to be destroyed. They hate talent and truth and they love malice and grandiosity and envy based fraud. They could be backing me up with my assertions of the arrests and incarcerations of stars who committed fraud with my work, but they choose to oppose me. They joyfully hyped those frauds all the way to heaven and let children be lied to with my songs and cartoons and poems and comedy scripts. The media is fraud's best friend. And they hand you your election coverage. The business, on the other hand, is not necessarily fraud's friend. They want you to take their contract seriously where it says that you must be the author of your work. If you bullshit them on your contract, they'll get you for it. If they were such good friends with frauds, they would stay loyal after the fraud was exposed to the public by the victim - as I have done for the last eight years with this Blogger account. Friends stay loyal, like the way all these crooked stars can still count on friendship from other stars. But the business has busted these fraud stars who stole my work in a very visible way, often forcing them to delay public appearances to administer justice. And if the media doesn't want to report it, the media will only look more foolish in the end. There may be a time limit on suing but there is no time limit on my ownership of my work. If I want it back, it's mine to take back and those frauds will just have to learn to produce their own work if they want to stay on top. However, if they were actually capable of producing work at my level, wouldn't they have already done so before I came along? May 5, 2:44pm: I'm back in this post to add a little more that I forgot yesterday. I heard something about Jay Leno's inset? today. Is that prick back in the public eye to do more harm? Do you know why I erased my discussions of his dick signing in prison? Because it's an ugly topic and I'm an artist who should be free to create beautiful work. But I must discuss Enola Jay's signed dick because the corrupt corporate media who hand us our election news won't breathe a word about his incarceration and punishment for stealing mountains of my blogs. They only wanted to put him on top of the top ten list of the world's funniest people for committing his evil crime with my work. What other nasty secrets are they hiding from us? And how much more of my work remains for them to manipulate their trusting subscribers into acts of hate against me? And isn't hate against the law in our country? Isn't it punishable by incarceration in a federal prison for several years? Isn't that where these irresponsible fraud hypers in the corporate media belong now, instead of being free to try to start another ten year fraud party made out of my posts?

The Punishment of the Disabled

All stars and bands mentioned here are guilty of committing fraud with my web posts. For a more complete list of stars who committed fraud with my work, visit my Copyright Issues page. My status as a person with a disability in B.C. needs to be discussed at greater length, with an election coming up. I don't think I represent disabled people very well, myself, but I still think I qualify for the program. At the time they approved my disability application for acute depression, my image had been so badly assaulted by fraud bands like Nickleback and Blue Rodeo that no employer would hire me. As such, I was as unqualified for employment as someone who just got out of jail for the twentieth time. Now local politicians have apparently taken this fact to stream repeat criminal offenders in with the disabled. It is a step which was sure to make the disability program more uncomfortable for its dependents. For starters, the front line workers who minister to the homeless are not trained to handle criminals and tend to be too trusting. You outside readers may recall that I lost one friend and one close associate to suicide so far here. They were both talented. One was a poet and the other was an artist, but being on disability was such a horror for them that they ended up killing themselves. The disability program was already killing good people like that before this step was taken to make it even more unpleasant. What does the news tell you by saying that problem offenders will be streamed in with the disabled? It does not tell you the whole truth, of course. You may gather that being unemployed is the worst thing that can happen to you and want to do anything to avoid it. And if they're using fear to make you stay in your job, then they don't have to worry about improving conditions in the workplace for you. Do you like that choice? It also tells you that the unemployed are hated. Yes, of course. But who precisely hates us? Is it everyone or is it just a few twits on the hill who think paradise comes from a Sears catalog? As far as I can tell, people want to help the disabled or there wouldn't be any public money available for us to collect on behalf of our disabilities. So if they want to help us, why would they hate us? I know how it feels to be held back by others who do not share your abilities. Look what happened to all my hit songs and poems and blogs. Imagine my disappointment by persons in my home who may have been too disabled to properly use the washroom. But sending criminals to use my bathroom to turn tricks for drug money or to rebuild stolen bicycles out of parts adds on a layer of unpleasantness that I find almost life threatening. If you're doing okay with a good job and a nice home, you should be too happy to hate the unemployed. But if you fall for the corporate mind manipulation that vilifies the unemployed, you may think that unemployed people are cheating you out of a better life. As for being unfulfilled in your job, that may be because you are not living precisely your dream at your job; you are living your employer's dream. Jobs will always fall short of fulfilling you in that area. I distinctly hate half measures. They serve absolutely no one. If you hate the unemployed, round them up and do away with them. They'll probably thank you for it. On the other hand, if you want to help them, help them with some full measure that does not end up costing them their lives. 1:40pm: I'm back in the new library Strathcona branch to do a little sketching for this post. I'll post it for you later. I'm an artist who needs to do art to feel worthwhile. I don't plan on killing myself just to spare the egos of a bunch of rotten people on TV and the radio. And I don't plan on killing myself for being unemployed because I applied for a million jobs after I erased my work from the web in '07 and no one would hire me because they believed all the bullshit about me on their TV's and radios. It's worth underlining this point about the TV news using fear to keep you in your job because these cutbacks always start with the disabled before they find their way to your job when you find out that you have no pension anymore. Or maybe you'll get laid off after working there for twenty-five years. But I have faith in people to stop it before it goes too far. Hitler also hated the disabled and murdered a few hundred thousand of them before public protest put a stop to it. Even the Germans who voted for Hitler thought it was wrong to attack the disabled. But if you like this new cruelty imposed on the disabled, I'll thank you when they come to take me to the gas chamber. It will spare me having to do their job for them, as was the case with my two deceased disability collecting but talented colleagues. 4:37pm: About being disabled, some workers may think of me as disabled because I can't get a job like them. By the same token, some employers think workers are disabled because they can't start their own businesses. Elections are less about shaping public policy than they are about putting a public stamp of approval on them. Any policy that hurts any innocent section of the population will be used to put the public's own stamp of approval on its own commensurate treatment by the government. I'm unimpressed by First Slight Productions and their decision to shoot at the Astoria Hotel today. I couldn't exchange my empty cans for a refund because they were using the basement for their film production. I expressed my discontent as I strolled past their trailer and I swear I was threatened by one of their staff, though I can't be sure with these excellent earplugs. I don't need their production because I don't watch TV or go to the movies. (And I don't need radio because I have music in my head.) All the hypocrite stars who live on the west side must think these productions are just fine as long as they're starring in them and not forced to walk around them. So I updated yesterday's cartoon post to improve the colors a bit and bring out the black more. And I've posted my little Christy Clark sketch to show you who I oppose here. I will vote for Melanie Mark because she grew up in my neighborhood and can represent me well in parliament.
