Fantasy is my lover, and I am reality.

What has it given to oppressed people in the United States besides new forms of domination?

I hold these truths to be unstoppable: that all human beings are created equal, that all human beings share the same rights and needs, and that human rights and needs should be given and protected by society.

The rights are first when it comes to shaping human experience: life, freedom, and love. To secure these rights, society should be created to include and accept everyone. There's no reason racism needs to exist. Sexism, ableism, queerphobia, human discrimination of all forms are unnecessary for a healthy society to exist. Simply put, all humans are human beings. Difference amongst human beings should not be punished the way it is in this society, where your your skin color determines your income and your sex determines the quality of your education. (Vice versa is true as well.)

The needs are physiological: clean water, food, air, shelter, clothing, education, medical care, and temperature regulation (as our climate changes, the need for creating safe climates will only increase). There is a deep inequality around the world when it comes to which humans have their needs and which don't. First World countries take what is not theirs through force. A new society should restore the balance forcefully-- work as hard and skillfully as it can to equalizing humanity, which includes commitment. Our society should pursue the best ways to live life, be free, and love wholeheartedly for centuries.

Love is like: all I want to know is your mind.

All my old stuff is what people care about now, and it's too hard for other people to look back into my past and absorb that. I think these musings below fall into personal love so read at your own risk... I'm giving you a warning before you get to know me. Your choice buddy!

What I have been thinking about lately, even though I think most of my thoughts come too early for people to understand their significance, is sadism. That is a weird thing to bring in relation to love but I look at the categories I have on this blog (abuse, depression, love and kink) and think it's maybe not so different from thoughts I've had before. I've been thinking a lot about sadism because of the massive pain society is going through right now. So many support it and love it and find it fun. Most of humanity is obsessed with finding ways to have the most fun. And sadism is fun.

Within this blog and my Succession blog, I've had a lot of thoughts about pain, love, and their relationship. I have specific experiences in my personal life that have taught me a lot about those concepts too.

What I've learned is that people love pain and we are meant to. It's not something we love all the time, but we love it sometimes. Pain is fun, and humanity wants to have fun. Desire for entertainment is fundamental to humanity, just like our curious drive. Killers, made and born, have created a society that is fun for them. But the kind of pain we have is wrong. As a creative sadist myself, I see sweeter pain we could all experience. Humanity at its best is one that can love-- not glorify-- the pain of grief, tragedy, trauma, and heartbreak. I know suffering is inescapable, thanks to previous philosophers and my own experiences. And I think humanity can learn (and needs) to have a better relationship with pain.
