Just some wine coolers from the grocery store. I wasn't even carded.

My SO found him walking around in the parking lot.

You should have this button on your keyboard:




Hit that key, open up Paint, go to edit, then paste.

My generation isn't here for either side's political battles.

My generation shouldn't be sent out to die so either side can prove a point.

Not everyone in my generation votes- does everyone in your generation vote?

Not everyone in my generation cares as much as they should- does everyone in your generation care?


Who honestly thinks that rich people won't be able to prevent their kids going to war, to die?

I seem to remember reading that our dear pResident got out of it...

How many of you who support the draft have children my age? How many of you have siblings that are my age? What would you be sacrificing if a draft was put in place? Anything?

Or is my generation nothing but so much fodder to you, so long as your side eventually wins?

Sometimes I wonder, if a draft wouldn't change some people's minds. But then, I only wonder. I would never vote for it or take the thought seriously. Nobody should be sent out to die for the wars of old men who won't sacrifice anything. Let alone to help someone's side in the political arena.

I just went through my apt and emptied every ahstray into a coffee can. Threw the rest of my pack in there. And filled it with water.

I feel like I'm developing asthma or something. I have to quit.

Wish me luck.

With the exception of Pink Floyd, my favorite bands are Alice in Chains, Blind Melon, Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, Pearl Jam, Primus, Nine Inch Nails, and Radiohead.

I get choked up looking at pictures of Layne Staley and Shannon Hoon.

My daily wear is old worn out jeans generally with a tear somewhere, t shirt, and a flannel shirt (if not a hoodie). With sandals, regardless of temperature or weather conditions.

I still think hemp chokers and bracelets are cool. Why don't I ever see anybody wearing them anymore?



Meh. This decade sucks.

My opinion is that all drugs (except meth- as it is on the street. There are safer ways to use methamphetamines) should be legalized, regulated, and heavily taxed. And the heavy taxes go towards that regulation and towards clinics for those who need help.

What a lot of people don't get is that most of the people we throw in jail or prison for drugs are just the harmless little guys. Most of the crime associated with drugs is simply because the drugs are illegal. The *real* bad guys, are the drug lords, or whatever you may want to call them. Not small time dealers, not recreational users. Even the addicts, the hardcore addicts don't belong in prison, because jail time ain't gonna take that addiction away. They belong in rehab.
Many addicts won't willingly go to rehab for a few reasons... two of the big ones being that they either can't afford it, or they are afraid of consequences- such as being jailed. I've known a lot of people who would have gotten the help if they thought they could have.

In a different direction- whether a drug is "soft" or not is all relative. I've known some people who consider acid and mushrooms to be hard drugs. I've taken acid, I know a lot of people who have taken both. They aren't hard drugs at all- especially acid. Acid doesn't do anything to hurt your body. Some people have bad trips, but that isn't as common as people think it is. I also don't consider opium to be a hard drug. Drugs *made* from opium like heroin, now that's hard. But opium itself, I personally don't think it's all that bad- in moderation. Of course you wouldn't want to smoke it all the time, it's hard on your liver and it can be very addicting, psychologically.
Coke isn't as bad as some people think. In moderation. Especially if it were regulated by the govt.- because then it would be clean, and not cut with various other substances. Now there is such a thing as doing too much cocaine, and you can OD on it. That's where being responsible comes in- and believe it or not, you can be responsible when you're on drugs.

I may be young, but I've known a lot of drug users, both young and old. The only irresponsible users I've known have been uneducated users. See this is also very important- REAL drug education, not this DARE crap. DARE serves to teach only that drugs are bad and against the law, mmkay. Real education is necessary so that people CAN be responsible. Knowing exactly what you are taking, what it can do to your body, what effects it may have on your mind, and how much is too much makes recreational use safe(r) and fun.

I had more to say but I forgot what it was.
