sometimes on sundays i think i might have sent in the secrets myself and just forgotten about it.
but it's kind of uplifting to know someone somewhere feels exactly the same thing that i do.

like an angel from a bedtime story
everything is sorted into compartments. neat ones. neat little compartments.
when i get high i think about how the world is essentially a distopia right now. reading all these vonnegut short stories on the plane scared me a lot, because some of his futuristic worlds weren't very far off from our reality. i want to stop watching tv and eating meat. tv, because when i think about it i get really uncomfortable. every household in america has its glowing box. and that glowing box might as well be giving us all frontal labotomies. there is no earnest television, it's all about selling a product, or better yet a personality, a life better than the one you lead, just sitting in front of your glowing box. i want to stop eating meat because of something i saw on my glowing box, AKA the very end of fast food nation.
what scares me is how much is behind everything. commercials aren't just commercials. advertising people use so many psychological tricks and have such a specific customer in mind when they create them and it's just creepy to me. like, whose target audience am i? what can i be boiled down to, what can they sell me?
i am SO SICK OF CONSUMING.
and you can't escape it either! try going outside without someone trying to sell you something. ads are on trains and buses and in airport bathrooms and at your college and on your computer screen on and your shoes and clothes and in your house and i don't know if i can take it anymore BUT i think living in this consumer culture has made everyone who they are without their knowledge so how do i get out of this??
tv and money are numbing my brain. i think i probably want to be a recluse for a while at some point in my life just to experiment. how would i do without any input from this culture i'm a part of right now?
the above is just a glimpse into my brain when i smoke weed^^^
SO CLICHE
