enough with this "living will" bullshit, lets just get down to brass tacks and look at the real motives...
which side is it who is paying for her life support?
or am i just being too cynical?
also, something about being locked into a "hospice" with a security guard who's keeping your parents from feeding you, even giving you a lick from an ice cube to soothe your drying throat because some guy in a suit said, at the urging of some other guy who says he "speaks in your interest," that you werent to be fed.. i dont care how conscious or whatever you are, and screw all the legalistic mumbo-jumbo, something about it seems to speak to me a lot about where, as a societal organ, our... priorities... are.
im not picking sides or anything here, since i dont know nearly enough to say, and besides, i think too many sides have already been picked anyway. im just you know, saying, is all..
"There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die."
fuck, i updated my facebook quote with the high-and-beautiful-wave rant in fllv just this fucking morning. jesus. the world just lost a gleaming, shimmering light in the dark. the canary is dead. who's next?
also, i used to live close to this monstrosity, back in my tacky early-mid-90s middle school years.
holy crap, the flashbacks... this, however, is well worth visiting.
i dont know whats funnier, the insuation of bush's homosexuality, or the absolutely ridiculous stereotyping cluelessness of the people making those insinuations...
oh wait its betty bowers
never mind
interesting... that sites made by feel good anyway, which does the calendars for the walker art center, using matthew carter's way-cool specially commissioned typeface (second one down)
kind of a non sequitur but
