unapologetically me

Brandon.

25.

single.

straight.

5'8"

Skinny fuck.

I drink.

Non-conformist.

Living a conformist life (ask me about it, it's hilarious).

Passionate.

I care- to the point of being so angry that I stop.

The list of music I listen to is massive.

Am in one place for more than a year, I think.

I am.

Everything means nothing, and anything can mean whatever you want it to mean. Could you handle the full effect of your life without boundaries? My life is a series of disjuncted moments strung together in uneven time. I don't make plans, I make it up as I go along. I wonder randomly to and fro, contemplating the infinite possibilities of the day.

I use my tattoos for the things I don't say about myself. I might say more later.

I don't have piercings. Not really opposed to them, just haven't been compelled to get any. My tattoos are by Joe Wood at Needlewurks in Saratoga Springs, NY.

I really enjoy random conversations with new people, it makes the day feel so much more fulfilling.

Feel free to message me for intellectual or general shoot-the-shit conversation.

2010/02/07 10:03 "How's that hopey, changey thing working out for ya?"-Sarah Palin speaking at the Tea Party conference.

Seriously? The next political "revolution" will be ushered in by the clumsy musings of an inane bimbo? Not feeling it.

The fact that they're essentially saying everything Libertarians have been saying for years and calling it something different is a bit infuriating too.

Mob mentality reasoning.
2010/02/03 13:40 I am really fucking tired of explaining things to people who are in economic elementary school, who either blame the US recession on Bush or Obama. The recession didn't affect me at all. I have a reliable job that I make good enough money at (it comes at a high price), and I was completely against buying a house. Ironically, the mess started during Clinton's administration and it wasn't any one party or person's fault.

When the tech stocks crashed, everyone wanted a quick recovery and they didn't care how they got it. Greenspan foolishly lowered interest rates to help the recovery (and it "short term" worked), while not taking into account the shift from stock market investment to real estate investment. Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae were dealing out subprime mortgages (that they were warned of in 2001 that were unreliable and bad loans) since 1995 because they were receiving affordable housing credit because of Clinton's "every American should own a house" routine.

No one complained how quick and easy the recovery was, which is really funny because no one shuts up about how bad it was when the bubble burst. Americans demanded a solution from the Fed and the government, like spoiled little children and expected everything to be all right. Didn't work out. Go figure.

Welcome to fucking capitalism, you gamble, you lost. In the Depression era, losing everything on a gamble in the stock market caused people to throw themselves out of skyscraper windows. It's unfortunate that bad investment decisions aren't self-correcting anymore.

Of late.
2010/02/02 16:34 It's funny, I notice when people I know melt down relationships more now than I did before. Maybe it's because I'm actually in one spot after a long hiatus of travel or the last lengthy relationship I had or both. A guy I know just spun out of a 5 year relationship and is a little bit awe struck by it all. Can't blame him, it's longer than any relationship I've held. Long term relationships get shakey after the 4 year mark for a variety of reasons. A failure to bond on a deeper level coupled with the endorphin-induced dopamine rush being gone after that long, commitment and financial issues, etc. *shrug* The probability of living one's entire adult life in one relationship is so small. And for the few that do and aren't happy, that's worse. Foolish promises and unattainable dreams.

In other news, more tattoos. Well, more shading on the right side of a my abdomen. Only the fine-line work was painful. Most of the shading was rather effortless. Next appointment the 17th. Yay.

blah. (3)

Hangover weekend.
2010/01/31 12:57 Oww, ok, birthday, yup. Concert was awesome. Everyone was surprisingly very good, even though Scale the Summit (first opener) was an all instrumental band... but they had microphones in front of them. Weird. But top notch music. Some people didn't like Devin Townsend's sense of humor, which is genuinely repulsive and bit corny, but I laughed. Cynic, Psychedelic/jazz, surprisingly good. Between the Buried and Me, self-explanatory. Awesome. Lots and lots and lots of liquor. Oh boy.

Thank you all that said happy birthday. And to those of you that didn't and know me well enough, I'll accept a humble plea for forgiveness. Not that I do forgiveness but it's kind of funny. Hehehe.
