Has the world gone stir crazy!? I prefer mine shaken not stirred! The confounding hype adverts that grab your attention with a put down, making you feel bad to buy their wasteful products! Yuck! The same irritating classic songs on radios in restaurants, coffee shops, shopping stores. What ever happened to good old elevator music, muzak would be preferable to classic rock yick yuppy stations. The fashion industry gone mad over polluting, over producing, wasting $4.3 billion worth of unsellable clothing inventory! Disgusting!! Here is the article https://www.fastcompany.com/90311509/we-have-to-fix-fashion-if-we-want-to-survive-the-next-century?fbclid=IwAR2n2cEPdv3FJ4bZ4drqebHJJB_miTeVkZ_wO04d5omjx32kYWjkHB2VDLs
Yea I watched a documentary a couple years back called The True Cost about how brutal the fashion industry is, how they cause much to the greenhouse gas effect, the corporations take advantage of poor countries with loose or non existent environmental laws and pollute the shit out of the water so all these villagers get sick and poisoned. Absolutely revolting and horrible. Heres a wiki on the doc - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_True_Cost
Yea all the synthetic fibres from clothing and plastics are polluting all the waters everywhere. That's industrial cheap consumerism for yea. Take the industries and policies, money making gimmick b.s. head on. The whole world can change just so we don't have to choke on pollution, or pollute someone elses land and water. It's not just individual choice, it's taking on the way the whole machine is run. Recycling a few things will never change what's going down.
How about cutting through the echo chamber of everyones social isolation. Who would imagine that life would be this and it was somehow ideal - your whole life is just work, you don't have many contacts, your only friends are your pets, the only things you have to look forward too are drinking, smoking and watching t.v.. it becomes your whole life. When you talk to anyone or post on social media it's about some dumb fuck show you saw on Netflix. That's it, your entire existence! All these people running around acting like it's totally okay! It's the best life!! The way to be!!! Just post memes all day on facebook, then get a tattoo! It makes me mad!! I can't stand it, why do so many act like that's it. I used to freak out at that, work, party on the weekend, repeat... almost everyone I knew, that was their entire life. Who could stand it! Who would not go stir crazy and want to break the echo chamber!?
The echo chamber gets pasted onto all social media! Who would have thought it would be such a great idea for people to be addicted to hand held communication devices!? The ads on these screens insult you too just like t.v. make you feel small and dumb so buy our product. Okay here is some more infotainment for you! Yea some serious shit went down, some brutal stuff happened... so let's just make it into your consumer entertainment!! Doesn't matter if someone died, their last blip on earth will be your consumption of their personal tragedy to sell clicks online, or papers, or tv for higher viewer rating. Break out of it!! Don't let them get away with it. Don't just boycott, can be as fruitless as recycling, take on the smugger attitude of consumerism and the brainwashing corporations pushing their unnecessary and wasteful products. Set a better standard.
That's my unload of post of the night. Have more thoughts. My head space may switch up next time. I like to still change up the vibe, tweak the mood, even if it is from a brood. Yea I do think I can break out of the mold, the hold, 'cause I like to feel whole! We can take on and dissect the current modes of the culture, the economic systems, the myths, create our own myths too.
