Αξιοπερίεργο

Δεν είναι περίεργο που αν κάποιος σου γράψει σε μια κόλλα χαρτί "θέλω να σε τεμαχίσω" θα είναι λιγότερο τρομακτικό απ'το να σου γράψει "ΘΕΛΩ ΝΑ ΣΕ ΤΕΜΑΧΙΣΩ" ;

ΓΙΑΤΙ ΤΑ ΚΕΦΑΛΑΙΑ ΓΡΑΜΜΑΤΑ ΕΙΝΑΙ ΤΟΣΟ ΔΥΝΑΤΑ ΣΤΟ ΜΥΑΛΟ ΜΑΣ;

Γιατί, έστω και για μερικά δευτερόλεπτα, αν όντως κάποιος σου γράψει "θέλω να σε τεμαχίσω" θα έχεις μια απειροελάχιστη εσωτερική λύτρωση που δε το'γραψε με κεφαλαία; Νομίζεις ότι μ'αυτό εννοεί ότι θα σε κόψει ....σε μεγαλύτερα κομμάτια;

Πάντα με εντυπωσίαζαν αυτές οι αόρατες συνδέσεις του μυαλού μας με οτιδήποτε εκτός του...!

Pay for your life

Come to think about it, currently the "economical situation" of the world is leading to a very weird and sad result.

We will work to obtain the right to just be alive.

Somehow this world, this society of creatures, will create a situation where the vast majority of the population will work just for the right to live while the rest will enjoy the benefits of their work.

Taxes are becoming increasingly high and wages equally lower day by day. Eventually, no doubt about it, they will be almost equal. Maybe even paying for telephone or power will become a "luxury".

Therefore eventually we will work just to have drinking water and the right to stay in the X country.

But it will be ok because we "have debts". We have to pay back. All of us. To somebody.

Unless we do something about it.

The reason behind oblivion

This period of time the events that are taking part in Greece are making me have a really heavy, bad feeling in between my lungs.

Whenever my mind drops into this subject, darkness covers my soul.
Therefore I think I can make an assumption: Participation, awareness and solidarity are really hard to perform. They take a lot of your mental health and calmness away.
I believe that this is the reason why so many people are oblivious to these thoughts.
It's easier if you just don't give a fuck, right?

It's easier to hit the weak, to be rich from the poor, to simply not care.

You just care about your big fat ass and everything's ok. 

But you know, there will be a point in your life, when it is nearly over, that you'll think back. About what you did.

At least then I know that I will be happier than the "other side". Maybe I'll suffer a bit more until that point but I'll earn my happiness then.

And it will be good.

Το τέλος του ρεαλισμού

Σαν κοινωνία πλέον μας ταλανίζει έντονα το θέμα του ρεαλισμού. "Δεν είναι ρεαλιστική επιλογή" , "είναι ένα μη ρεαλιστικό σενάριο" είναι φράσεις που πιπιλίζουν τα αυτιά μας συνέχεια μέσα απ'τα ηχεία των τηλεοράσεων.

Μήπως πρέπει να αποφύγουμε την οδό του ρεαλισμού; Γιατί πλέον είναι εμφανές(θέλω να ελπίζω) για όλους πως οι σημερινές μη-ρεαλιστικές επιλογές είναι στην ουσία το επόμενο βήμα. Δεν γίνεται να υπάρξει κάτι καινούριο αν είναι "ρεαλιστικό" με τα τωρινά δεδομένα.

Ας είμαστε καλύτερα φαντασιόπληκτοι, όλοι μαζί. Ή ονειροπόλοι έστω.

Football stadiums are the new colosseums

Another footballer died of a "heart incident" today. 

It seems that football ,with all the steroids and anabolics, is becoming a gladiator show of some sort, you can actually witness death in a match..
Capitalism to the extreme!!

Money on a bicycle

Yeah, but at least when you cry on a bicycle it's not about how much you payed for it. Bitch.

The modern concept of "being rich"

Money or more precisely possessions were gathered by specific people since the beginning of organized societies. Be it greed or some other malice, the basis of capitalism always existed.

The ideal society in my mind will get rid of this issue but we are -very- far away from that. The whole system, our education and upbringing nurtures the notion of "becoming rich".

But the saddest part is not that. What is really sad and weird currently is how people are rich. Let's picture for example a random very wealthy guy, a ship-owner.
Probably fat, sitting in front of his office all day long, chatting in phones or computers. How does he actually make all that money?

He owns ships. Or to be more precise he has some papers that say that he owns the ships. Because ,let's be honest, if a ship's captain decides he won't move, he will "have" one ship less. Note that the ship's captain gets about 1/100000 of the money the fat guy gets. Just because he has some papers that make him the owner of some ships.

The same applies with any kind of property. Some people have papers that say that they own thousands of acres of land. Other people "own" huge factories filled with poor people working them.

What really makes me sick about this situation though, is that these few people HAVE to remain RICH, not even just make a living, and due to this "need" they can fire other people that make barely enough to stay alive.

"I won't make 1 million euros this month, I have to fire 100 people"

And the weirdest part is that a big part of the population accepts that fact. They can see a "sense of logic" when companies fire people in order to keep their incomes high. "What do you expect them to do? Deny their riches?"

Well, fuck, yes? Why do all the other people live with that? Are they less important somehow?

I really can't manage to understand the point of this system and why it's not demolished to the ground yet. Ofcourse the "powerfull" people want it, it keeps them rich, but the MAJORITY of the WORLD shouldn't! Don't give them excuses..help them get destroyed!

Let them "be rich" in their papers. We are the ones that do the ACTUAL work, they just have these papers.

Fat fucks.

Careless Whisper

Με χαρακτηρίζει η απροσεξία τελευταία.

Δεν προσέχω. Σίγουρα όχι εκεί που θα'πρεπε.

Είναι δηλαδή σα να κοιτάς το πεζοδρόμιο για σκατά και να πέφτεις με το κεφάλι σε στύλο της δεης.

Και περιμένω να ακούσω έναν δάσκαλο από κάπου να φωνάζει "ΔΕΝ ΠΡΟΣΕΧΕΙΣ" αλλά μπα...

Η τελική κρίση της ελ.ασ.

Αύριο (12 Φεβρουαρίου 2012) είναι η μέρα τελικής κρίσης της ελληνικής αστυνομίας.

Αύριο θα κλειδώσει η θέση της στην ιστορία ως σκυλί της χούντας..

Εκτός κι αν αλλάξει κάτι δραματικά. Που δε το βλέπω.

Τελείωσε ο καιρός που ο λαός έδειχνε στους μπάτσους τις σωστές επιλογές. Αν δεν μπορούν μόνοι τους, τώρα που είναι τόσο ξεκάθαρες, δε τις αξίζουν.

Αύριο.

Για τους υπόλοιπους η μέρα της κρίσης πέρασε. Τώρα απλά είναι η τελική ευθεία.

just do it

Περίοδος Εσωστρέφειας

Το καιρό αυτό διανύω μια παρατεταμένη περίοδο εσωστρέφειας.

Δε βρίσκω εύκολα διάθεση να "βγω", να κοινωνικοποιηθώ.

Ίσως φταίει το -πολύ- κρύο..

 Ίσως απλά να χρειάζομαι ένα διάλειμμα...

 Ίσως να μου λείπει κάτι....

....ποιος ξέρει; Όχι εγώ πάντως!

Βέβαια γι'αυτή μου την άγνοια μάλλον παίζει σημαντικό ρόλο ότι δεν με πειράζει και τόσο η εσωστρέφεια. Καλό είναι να συζητάς με τον εαυτό σου μερικές φορές και να του τονίζεις τις εκάστοτε βλακείες που έχει κάνει. Το χρειάζεται. 

Τώρα το ότι εγώ με τον δικό μου είμαστε σε μια διαρκή διαφωνία ίσως θα'πρεπε να με προβληματίσει, αλλά δε βαριέσαι...

Λάμπουν

Μερικοί άνθρωποι απλά λάμπουν. 

Με την παρουσία τους στο οπτικό μου πεδίο θολώνουν το περιβάλλοντα χώρο. 

Υπάρχουν μόνο αυτοί. 

Και λάμπουν.

2011

The year 2011 is gone... but has it left anything to us?

I think it has, a lot. And one word can describe the whole year:
Alteration.
Everyone was altered during this year, in a way.

For starters locally, Greeks have altered into economists. All of them. Everyone is talking about debts, spreads, PRIs and crap like that.
The Greeks also became weirded-out agitated protesters. During this year they suddenly realized they were sold out from their own governments and started to react. Even in a weird, not-very-successful and peaceful way. They understood what the police really is - the guard-dog of the system and not the protectors of the people as they should - and faced the consequences.

The younger generation altered itself into something more reactive but still confused and the older generation altered into a sadder, self-aware and guilty existence. They know they fucked up and they don't like it.

The whole world altered itself into a debt-full place. Everybody owes to somebody. There's no country without a debt of some kind. Who do they owe to? No-one really knows. We believe we know where the direct debts go to, but how come EVERYONE has one...?

On a personal viewpoint, I can say that 2011 was deeply alternating for myself as well. I made new strong friendships, met people that became important for me - even if I won't get to keep all of them as close as I'd prefer - and in general I changed the way I live, the way I see a lot of things and I feel abler to express myself. I kind of like the altered "me". With the new flaws and all.

The new year, 2012, doesn't seem very promising. On the contrary it looks pretty dim. But there is hope and it lies within the alternation of 2011. People have grew through the mishaps and occurences of the last year into something different and PERHAPS that new and different mindset can create better results. Unfortunately, as always, only time will tell.

Usually he doesn't say much..
