“Social networks”, human stupidity, great recent art, the usual

Haven’t posted in a while since I had to settle in after moving and get a new job to pay off bills/debts. I’ve been stifled. Sweaty. Tropical.

So there’s a little insight into me.

Now for the rest of the crap.

I’d like it to be known that I utterly hate Facebook.

I know, I know, I have a profile.

And I want to delete it every time I log in.

The overload of information on the site is ridiculous and annoying and the site itself isn’t nearly as useful as say, MySpace.

So here come the flames (ha) but I’ve said it before. One of these days I’m going to give up on Facebook. That being said though, I love Twitter. And MySpace of course (for some weird reason).

Maybe it’s because MySpace feels more organized, you can ignore more of the bullshit, and the layout is so much better, Facebook is just jumbled, ugly and overbearing. I don’t get why it’s so popular right now.

But enough of that for today.

I’ve also been writing (HandcuffHospital.com), may have found a drummer, etc. Okay, I lied – one more thing about MySpace. Look at these Google results for Handcuff Hospital.

What’s first on there?

That’s right.

Anyway, I know this post isn’t much in the way of explosiveness, but there will be more organized thoughts soon.

I’ve been listening to Bad Religion (their new one, New Maps of Hell – it’s fantastic). Lots of punk. Some great local bands I’ve found lately (the RunnAmucks, Floridas Dying, SuperAIDS, and Libyan Hit Squad) some of the new Superdrag (Industry Giants)

(video for Superdrag’s “Aspartame”)

Meat Puppets of course (new album Sewn Together drops THIS MONTH!!)

(live video of “Rotten Shame”)

and I’m also looking forward to Terminator Salvation.

(the amazing trailer)

Come on, postapocalyptic special effects, Christian Bale, and nine inch nails?!?!? What a trailer.

Damn.

So there’s your art reviews and reccomends for the day. Never done that before on here!

Just a little insight to the man behind the words.

I’ll leave you with two great quotes from the latest Bad Religion album:

“I don’t want to be in a land known as destitute and free – with the grains of wrath blazing a path from sea to shining sea”….

and

“We’re animals… with golden rules who won’t be moved by rational views”.

Suck on those for a while.

I just had some hardcore deja vu. Weeeeird.
