False dichotomies

ANY ONE GIVING YOU CHOICES IS LYING TO YOU.

you don't have to rent. you don't have to buy. you don't have to live in a place. you can wander and become a vagrant or a bandit. though I wouldn’t recommend it…its something you could potentially do. existence for each individual has its own parameters. generally the person giving you a choice has just got you trapped and that's it.

the bank. the traffic cop. the irs. most companies offering a discount on an already inflated price…that's America. the illusion of choice presented by a cacophony of imagery and detritus. sex sells soda…I guess. HOW DOES ANYONE TAKE EITHER PARTY SERIOUSLY? DEM/REP IS a false dichotomy and a drastic oversimplification of what's actually happening…

fuck if I know how we got here

I just got here myself.

I can’t stand most of what I see everyday. it has gotten to the point that id rather just be inside and write. I'm sick of my old hustles.

I don’t want to do it anymore.

I don’t like being in a position to have to ignore someone's pleas for help, but being out in the world is often doing that. if i gave everyone money that needed it on my way to work, and while at work as well, id have nothing left ever. and that's what I did last month is lend someone a thousand dollars after they lied and said they'd have it back in a day or two. its been two weeks and this is the 50th time ive been through this. people are just so addicted to gambling that they'll lie to anyone just to get some more money for just a few more rounds. I'm not at all wealthy. I should never help anyone but my wife and kid and that's it. but damn isn’t that letting money control who I am as a person.

honestly I hate it worse than drugs. Junkies are bad but they don't last long generally.
