Bad Role Models Create Chaos

Bad Role Models Create Chaos
I recently posted a news bulletin that blames the media for the increase in mass slayings of late. It was a comedy post which you could have taken purely as a joke, but today I'd like to say the same thing seriously. You wouldn't need to take a deadly weapon out of the hand of a teen if the media would be more responsible in choosing their idols. Someone like Taylor Swift, for instance, who they present as harmless, is actually a psychopath. Being a star is more important to her than anything. She stole her music and lied about its author to be a star. She broke the law and went to jail to be the star she is now. That's not all that different from committing a mass slaying to be a star. The same destructive ambition guides both acts.

I'm old now, but I'm wise. I know I'm probably happier living the life of an ordinary worker, even though my creative talent might not be so ordinary. We could avoid a lot of bloodshed if I weren't being humiliated for making a very sensible life choice. We could show these troubled teens who they've really been admiring on the radio and TV and that he's happy outside the spotlight. But clearly the media would rather keep the dead end road to murder/suicide open for these kids than admit it has lied so much to us about who to admire in the last fifteen years. It embarasses them and they can't face embarassment. They can dish out murderous image violations to an innocent artist like me, which I must face every day, but they can't face a little embarassment to put it right. Too bad we can't get people of stronger character to work in broadcasting.

Don't underestimate what their campaign against me has cost. I had a hole in my molar for three years after seeing a dentist while I wrote my Madonna Went to Prison blog. See where I end up when they leave me alone to tell the truth about the crimes against me? It cost me a couple thousand for the crown. There was no other way to repair the damage. But they can't face a little embarassment.

The Drowning Howl: Sunday May 22, 2022

The Drowning Howl: Sunday May 22, 2022 Good morning, and welcome to the Drowning Howl. Owooooooo - gurgle, gurgle. It's 1:30 am. Topmost in our order, His Regal Nighness, the Lord of Dauphins, arrived in the country for a three-day summit with indigenous leaders at a sweat lodge in Baffin Island on Sunday. There they renamed him 'Water on the Knee' and told him he was the reincarnation of a great Medicine man sent by the Creator to save the lakes from overicefishing and to protect the tundra. The subarctic region is expected to become more navally strategic in the future due to global warming. Naturally, with his mother, the Monarch, approaching extreme old age, everyone is rushing to ingratiate themselves to the Lord, hoping to have his favour when he ascends to the throne. So you'd better not call him 'Big Ears' anymore. And, for Christ's sake, don't mention his ex-wife. In war news, in newly seized territory, an enemy court has sen

The Drowning Howl: Saturday May 28, 2022

The Drowning Howl: Saturday May 28, 2022 Good day, and here is our report for another week. As usual, only five things happened. Although rents seem to be soaring out of reach, a top developer advises that we brace ourselves and wait until more affordable housing can become available. He says that old shipping containers offer a quick fix. Stackable up to five storeys, the containers could house a growing population, making ideal family units. Easy to assemble Anderson bomb shelters, on the other hand, could accommodate single men. A suitable zone for such dwelling places still needs to be found, with the city dump highest on the current list of possibilities. It may take a long time to realize this Utopian vision, but existing units are expected to finally drop in price once they start to get run-down. Strong faith in our soldiers on the Eastern Front was voiced in parliament on Wednesday, declaring that they are the superior military force and that the enemy canno

Tools of Oppression

Tools of Oppression My foot is still hurting, but I work on it anyway. Not much fun going to a warehouse job with a sore foot. We have no more doctors or nurses in Canada. They've all moved to the U.S. for bigger paychecks. If you get hurt in Canada, you just have to do without medical attention. I noticed a police van outside my place of employment at around 11:45pm last night (Saturday night). It reminded me of all the times that cops would come around to check on the lies about me that circulate on the internet. They sure tell a lot of nasty lies about me behind my back, eh? Those cowards. Anyway, the cops didn't stick around. They left as soon as they saw me come out to the loading docks. Coincidence? It's the kind of thing that happens to you when your work is popular but Google wants to hide its popularity from people in your region. Every fraud on the internet wants to cash in your popularity and it causes you endless grief. It's been wrecking
