"I felt that I had been happy and that I was happy again. For everything to be consummated, for me to feel less alone, I had only to wish that there be a large crowd of spectators the day of my execution and that they greet me with cries of hate." ~The Stranger, Albert Camus



You only live once.’ If you were to die tomorrow would you really look back on your life and be happy with it? Maybe bits and pieces, yes, but life as a whole? No. If I was to die tomorrow I would look back on my life with regret.  My whole life has been ruled by school and my parents.  I want to live life how I want it-it is my life. But this is crazy. How, in this crazy, corrupted world is that really possible? It isn’t. No one in life can truthfully say that they have lived their life the way they want to. Society dictates everyone’s life: what they should look like, what they should act like, ect. You cannot say it doesn’t. When livelihood turns you into a slave that’s it. You stop living and become a slave to everyone and a slave to society. Real life cannot be lived like that.  You live free or you die.




TriMet poised to start new MAX project

ah, big surprise. TriMet is back in the news over this stupid orange line...
You know what? At this point who cares? TriMet will continue to do whatever they want, so why brood over it?  Forget it and say hello to TriMet's 6th light rail line-The Orange Line, Milwaukie Light Rail.
Anyways, in this corrupt society, why does it even matter?
