"we are being made aware that the organisation of society on the principle of private profit, as well as public destruction, is leading both to the deformation of humanity by unregulated industrialism, and to the exhaustion of natural resources, and that a great deal of our material progress is progress for which succeeding generations may have to pay dearly. i need only mention... the exploitation of the earth, on a vast scale for two generations, for commercial profit: immediate benefits leading to dearth and desert. i would not have it thought that i condemn a society because of its material ruin, for that would be to make its material success a sufficient test of its excellence; i mean only that a wrong attitude towards nature implies, somewhere, a wrong attitude towards god, and that the consequence is an inevitable doom. for a long enough time we have believed in nothing but the values arising in a mechanised, commercialised, urbanised way of life: it would be as well for us to face the permanent conditions upon which god allows us to live upon this planet. and without sentimentalising the life of the savage, we might practise the humility to observe, in some of the societies upon which we look down as primitive or backward, the operation of a social-religious-artistic complex which we should emulate upon a higher plane. we have been accustomed to regard 'progress' as always integral; and have yet to learn that it is only by an effort and a discipline, greater than society has yet seen the need of imposing upon itself, that material knowledge and power is gained without the loss of spiritual knowledge and power."

decent flick. but not the greatest in the whole history of the world ever. the chick is pretty hot tho. if you dig big chicks. with man hands. and four fingers.

so leaving the farm tomo. it sure has been a rough last week. mower broke. so had to get out the hoe. man oh man. nearly killed me. proper physical labour. brutal. at one point my hands started bleeding. and then one of the trees whipped me in the face. and then i fell on the hoe and it stabbed my spine off. i swore. and then kicked the tree. i shed a tear. and wished i was back home. with my garden boy. australia sure is an undeveloped country. they desperately need a slave class. cheap labour. white folks shouldn't be doing this shit. we weren't born for it. its genetics.

so heading back to sydney for a few days. and then onto bangkok for the wend. hopefully the reds and yellows have sorted out their issues. goddamn the third world. these people shouldn't have power; shouldn't have a voice. its dangerous. this is the sort of thing that fucked australia up. they should tazer the fuckers. or mow them down with that high-pressured water gun. drown one of the bastards. make an example. really do some damage. and then put them in their place. send them back to their huts. to tend the rice paddies. and sell their teenage daughters to the sex trade.

get. the. fuck. in. harry redknapp's blue and white army.
