lately i have been wpmdering that to just being piese of shit, i mean a popular i idea, and some sort of you know you like a uniform, i tells nothing about me, and me personaly i am an asshole. me playing out with the flag of communism, and linux represents how much of an asshole i am, i mean most people are doing this i am part of ad industry shit these days. so i just took a ride along, but as an art value, fuck that, i havent got none. if i ever can i want to make people start to look art seriosly, because if it deserves the valeu of being under the microscope the time is now and here. i want to experiense some eye opening during my lifetime.

Well if i am not correct it does, but i am not sure about my lettering in the picture, i am sure i have seen cyrrlic letters somewhere? Not sure if it takes userinterface changes to make it work in win/os??

Ahh, maybe it's just my stupid computer. I need to configure the keyboard, but I'm afrain that the damn thing will blow up. I want a new computer! Waah.

Me too, and i think changeing the keyboard to different language will change everything, so navigateing back might be difficult, i guess, to change it back.

I used to have the keyborad set for both English and Swedish (I speak a little ), but I could never remember which were the special vowels and I always forgot to set it back to English. It's the stupid details screw me up sometimes. I'm always thinking about the bigger picture and then trip over the little shit. *sigh*

Well we played with the same kind of thing on my mobile phone, changed into creek, with out thinking. It took us an other one of same kind of phone to figure the menus in Finnish language to mimic the menus to get it back. Out of that i made out a joke, that mayby they could change the language of operating system in nuclear facility, heh. That would be fucked. like:
-Have you seen we can change the language of the system?
-Really?

God forbid! Who needs to worry about a terrorist hijacking a plane and crashing it into a nuclear facility when someone can fuck things up from the inside. Damn.

Well i guess thats been the case all along, we are so good at thinking out these scary scenarios these days (must be the time, when everybody is into serialkillers for tales before sleep) that we like invite others do the things we are scared of the most. But thats how white rightwing racists act these days too, they stimulate others to do things and get away by appealing to the freedom of speech. Oh, i am getting too depressing again..
π: 0 β©: 1
I'm in total agreement with you. The right-wing hate-mongers feed off of people's fears and inflame each other with their disgusting rhetoric.
As naive as this sounds, I relly just don't understand why people feel so threatened by others whose way of life or religious faith is different. I mean, at the core, we are all the same, have the same basic needs and desires. I can't understand why other don't see it. I. Just. Don't. Get. It.
Sometimes I feel as though I'm the only sane person out there. Heh.
π: 0 β©: 1
Thats history, babe, i guess. It takes a nother thousand years for people to forget things like jerusalem, i hope it does not take more. And hate is so easy, like superstition, you need no strong reasons, just belive you are right in your hate, you have been wronged. I feel sad when i see peace activists rioting againts skinheads somewhere in europe, i mean taking action just as same as the other party in picture. Its so stupid, there is a lovely swedish movie about a skinhead boy meeting a black girl on the internet chat. They fall in love, etc,,
But taking arms, well i dont belive in that, not that way, i am more of terrorist in that part, you gotta hit the source, smite the root of all evil, but throwing bricks and shit thats just useless. Time and money is not on your side. Bordom, again i feel so dualistic that i cant go on. Shame on me. I should have pretought views on everything. One day i am a total sosialist another i am selling bibles to other people to make money, heh.
But about the of feeling sane, they are just labels people belive in. I have made it my purpose to make friends with the ones nobody sees, the outcasts, the wolfs, the last taboo of human nature, the truth we dont want to see : other people.
But i dont know i live in a decent area in finland, lots of buildings full of flats, people from allwalks of live, some poor some rich, local pubs where people meet, so i dont feel like insane or sane just ecepted and thats cool. Its like a small village of 10 000 people, but connection to global village too.
Of course most men in the age of mid fifties have rotten views about most things, but i could say that "most" of their values are still good.
I have allways felt its better to be stupid with good morals and values, than smart and bitter.

I have allways felt its better to be stupid with good morals and values, than smart and bitter. Maybe so. Does cynicism = bitterness? I have a hard time giving up my cynicism. It's been my companion so long that I can't imagine what I'd do without it. Little Mary Sunshine I am not. If I started having a happy outlook on life my friends and family would probably fear that I had a brain tumor.
π: 0 β©: 1
But then again i am still choosing my friends some drop off allthe time some come along and i give them hard time enough to see if they can tolerate me.
Thats my way, not very nice but effective, never the less.
Bitterness is to me like not able to forgive people, soaking in your own juices so much you cant see anymore.
I cant remember who said something about it seeing the trees from the forest for the first time and be amazed by them.
Many people seek out peace in the forest because nature has never ever caused any harm, but thats not for me.
I need to save people. I feel strongly about the young people in Finland acepting their faiths, about being from poor families, going to bad schools and not knowing that there are better ways to think. If you can think, they can lock you up but you are still free.
Oh, i am so internet now, i cant even remember what we were talking about, just surfing the lines on the screen

I mean i cant really be impressed about camelboots traveling into India, when i know the person did not actually need it, and the coutry is so poor i could not walk around with out shutting my eyes off or doing something about it.
Yah, I think know what you're saying. I remember when I did a summer session abroad in the USSR, I was sitting on the steps with some Russian friends when we ran into some US tourists that exemplified the "Ugly American Abroad." They bitched about how crappy the hotel was blah blah blah, not realizing that the amenities in the hotel were like 1,000 times better than what the average citizen could get his hands on at the time. What in the hell were they doing there then? It certainly didn't have the effect of opening their eyes any. Whatever. Just another of my odd rants.

Travel experience comes as a commodity, shit i could rant about that too, i just love to rant
People dont change unless they want to change, i figure, i mean you are yourselfs best bet to be the person to change. You cant change others..
I know many punks who are actually from whelthy families, who have nothing to fight against for sure and have good situation to fall back on when they inhert their parents, and they are usually the loudest. I could say i generally hate most people, expect the avarage joe, cause they are mostly wise in a way that is never heard.. Its like life is like a profession you cant teach at school, just like i feel about filosophy, i mean you can teach all the toughts of the philosophers, the history, when they lived and how they affected others, but you cant teach people to think on them own.. Thats one line i usually use when i feel like somebody has read more about the subject than me 
I just love the way you can surf and surf change the subject into anything. Still feels nice, the human interaction.
16 days sober now, not so bored, but still, yep..
Why Russia by the way? I havent been there yet but i do have couple of tickets to saint petersburg, the date is open for 2 years. I bought them from a friend who works at the cruiseship. Sound still bit strange and brave choise to travel.

That's the alleged goal of universities now, though- Crtitical Thinking- but still, lots of students have the mindset of being taught to the test, know what I mean? They just want to know, "Will this be on the test?" without considering the fact that they're there to learn and grow. Feh! I'm a teacher though, and a professional student at heart, so I have a weird view. If I had a limitless supply of money I'd keep taking classes- history, linguistics, languages, math etc. I don't however, so I content myself with reading on my own. What can I say? I'm a total geek.

My major in college was Russian Language and Soviet and East European Studies, so it was a no-brainer. Plus, it was in the end stages of glasnost, and Gorby's USSR was really trying to put a happy face on the country for Westerners, the US in particular. It was an incredible time. As a bonus, our orientations were in Finland at the Hotelli Korpilampi in Espoo. We had a ton of fun there.

Wow, i truly like you
So you have been here too, heh. But the CIA might have a file on you too
I still have one great shirt that has three fist's pointing to the sky saying glasnost. I love it, even tought its allready worn out. Have been thinking making some replicants of it, tought..
Ok, 20 days now. First "real" day for long time, left the house early and spend most of the afternoon out, helping my grandmother. Came home, full of positive energy, things are slowly moving for the better. I gather if i can keep up with these things i wont get too bored, i mean spending too much time with ones self ok, its a protection, can allso be bad. You start hitting your head to the wall, thinking wrongly, start getting scared of things, scared of changes. Cabin fever hits. Soon i hope i will be able to comfort people and stay out, daily and spend evening time just taking it easy. I dont want to preasure my self.
I know how that ends.

Wow, i truly like you
I have no doubt whatsoever that someone, probably the State Dept, had a file on me. My Russian prof told me that at the time (in the '80s) anyone whose declared major involved Soviet Studies had a file started. Whatever. I'm hardly a risk to national security. For Chrissake, I'm a stay at home mom. I'm sure a shit not making bomb ion the bathroom tub these days.
Heh. I'm feisty today.
I used to have a Solidarity t-shirt (remember them?). *sigh* Good times. I also had one that a foreign exchange student from Nicaragua gave me that had the phrase "el pueblo unido, jamas sera vencido."
So, it's been 20 days, eh?

Oh yeah. We are our own worst enemies. Once you're in that death spiral of negativity you may as well kiss your ass goodbye. It is good to be active to keep your mind occupied.
π: 0 β©: 1
And the funnies thing about negative thinking is that its all learned, from around us. I mean tought traps, we dont often even realize when we bottle something up or fall into a one. Bit boring, at least when you have ADHD, i do, i mean there is allso a tendency to cause fights. Still i want to save the world, not humankind, but the rest of the planet. Not by making bombs
But it seems like opening the ex-soviet coutries just for the sakes selling them all the shit we are building. I mean thats why Germany seems to be in such trouble, everything went fine at the beging they could sell shit to the ex-east germans. Now they realize its no answer.
All the time i wonder how the thing is evolving in poland and coutries like that, new members of european union, old coutries, with lots of old problems.
The youth is moving in the hope of better life to countries like germany, england, switzerland, but there is no money or work coming to these coutries if people move a way from them, allso people get old and caring for the old is becoming a major problem in europa in next ten/twenty years.
Besides the presure in the coutries these young folks are moving is allso growing, there arent work there either, no better life for most of them. You should be educated to be a nokia engineer to survive..
I am not saying these are troubled times, more than before, i am just bit worried about people not seeing this thing happening..
But as i am not sure about their survival i am not sure about my own. And i think i am doing better just keeping my ass here, where i do feel bit secure. Home, poorly paying job and the cabel connection to the net

I think that individually, a person is able to look toward the future and plan, but as a group, people now seem to be terribly short-sighted. I don't know if it's a natural dynamic of group psychology or just a sign of how fucked up (excuse the language
Home, poorly paying job and the cabel connection to the net
I love my DSL connection. My old dial-up connection was awful. Now I can waste time on the computer much faster. Heh.

Love the concept.
I have always seen Linux as a successful working example of text book communism.
First thing I mention to any bastard who says the great social experiment was a failure.
I think Marx would have been blown away at the socialist potential of the internet.

Heh, whats your home adress? I have 3 door size posters of the same thing i made about a year ago. I can send you one if you care to have it, i have no use to them. Because i am kind of nerd and very aware of fasionate things around, beside i live in finland, the land of low self asteem where linus was born, we keep on talking about him like he is god or what not around here. So i cant really post them anywhere, whitout somebody thinking, oh he is riding this fasiontate linux wawe
Sent me a note i, yep yep.
Ok, on a another matter. I tend to think like surfing on the net, so i keep on bouncing from subject to subject. The comment about marx, well i must coute you on that. Braing running, dropping off subject.
I had a year ago this strange conversation about people living and traveling around europe like gypsies, kind of hippies anyways. And we strated to argue about the filosophy of life, about living outside sosiecty and weater it really is as cool as it sounds. Dont get me wrong i am all about life sould be an adventure, otherwise its boring. And the point i got frstated was not this lovely life idea.
But the fact that i was told about the way they are so admirable because they live outside society.
Now this is what gets me really going, it's like rubbing me the wrong way. There is no sosiety! No sosiety to live outside from, nobody cares what people do. There are no safetynets, no nothing, just couple of buildings holding the so called sosiety, building full of cops, a building full of tax people, people how come up with laws, thats it. No watchmen no nothing, no society.
Of course we have the same problems as people outside the internet, how to find the actual people who think like me. But saying technology is part of the conspiracy of evil, thats just plain stupid. I want mondo 2000 back, i want to still say i am cyberpunk, heh.
I know i am blabling but thats just me. I just woke up and i am still kind of blown away. I am very taken that you came to my page and are writing to me. I read you on abstract deviant page and i liked what i read.
In 1994-1995 when i had net, i was very impressed about the fact about seriously meet people on the net, then all this spam thing happend and everybody got to make their security so thigh, shit it bothers me still. The dawn of the net was lost, i mean then you could actually write to authors directly and it was just so cool. But these days..
But i am ready for second coming and i am taking this seriously, i want to create myself not again, but create for myself a electronic persona. Have real friends around the world, i can communicate with. To me that does not sound so boring at all.
Am i frightning? heh

About there being 'no society'
I am not sure wether you are for or against this idea, because you English is a little hard to read. Here is my response to the idea that there is no society.
This is a right wing compedative individualist philosphy that has NO basis in reality.
Language is the key to human social development and culture. Language is based on a socialist model. Language depends on the socratic 'social contract' to work. No one owns or controls language. Language is changed by innovative individuals working in cooperation with the total population.
Another point - one third of every economy is generated by unpayed domestic labour and volentere labour.
Another point - anachistic individualists are not capable of building public infrustructure or developing long term socal policy that may harm or even destroy vested interests in the short term. Democratic societies do this all the time with varieing degrees of success.
Another point - many countries have massive social safty nets and all countries have legal systems.
Printing in Europe did not encourage a 'new' intellectual revolution for nearly 100 years. For a long while all that happened was an explosion of all the the old works. The reaction to this massive new exposure for the old works took several generations to get moving. It takes time for thinkers to get used to a new medium. Sure things work much faster on the internet but it is also a lot more chaotic. There are always people who are prepared to participate in serious thought on the internet. The real problem is trying to find them amongst all the garbage.

Damn but that's clever, on so many wonderfully cute/horrible levels. Combining the 'underground cool' of Linux (in the nerdy sense) and the 'underground cool' of Soviet imagery (in the pretentious middle-class sense).
Viva whatever.

You can take the middle-class out of a boy, but never the boy out of the middle-class or was that how it went in general? Yep, i think the same. When i was trying to make the linux cuba, it sucked in worst way for the reasons above. I wanna be a soft guy, a proud nerd not some sodding punk!!!
Thank you!!!
