Woah, Marilyn Manson was an awesome concert. Apparently supported by the Spazzys or the Spackos or something. The verdict in our little group was that the Spackos sucked dead donkey dick, so we stayed at the hotel getting pissed until they had left the stage. Then we wandered down, saw OOdles of people in black, although only a few were really dolled up. We found a spot to dance and see the stage, and then bounced our merry little brains and bodies away to a magical fairy land of pixies and glitter and sex and blood and leather and fire. Ahem, anyway, it was quite the excellent experience. Amy came away with quite a few bruises, but she didn't seem to mind, if she had, she wouldn't have let me bite her so many times.... I then went with some other Canberra crew to Ascension, one of the goth nights held in Syd. It was quite fun, and I danced to some really cheesy 80's retro. Wonderful. It was no Chrome though, the vibe was not like the liquid sex that held the last Chrome together. Soooo. Then went back to hotel, slept for 3 hrs, and got up and headed back to Canberra again to a much needed shower.
P.S. If anyone knows of infrastructure support jobs paying around 55K +super, or junior dev jobs paying around that too, let me know eh?
W00t for all! |

| wooooaaah! update! |
[Sep. 17th, 2006|07:36 pm] |
Woah, fujitsu is nearly over, I need a job by the 29th.
Desktop support level 2/3.
I now live with Sarah, and this is a good thing.
Hmmm. Watching idol by proxy, and... meh. it is still crap.
I see this girlband thing phenomenon.
I just had to post the parody lyrics I have been singing along to their new song "party girl"
Their lyrics in normal text, my replacements in italics.
You can take the daylight out of the sun
(You can fill my ass right up with cum)
You can take the tick-tock out of time
(I like to take six cocks at a time)
You can take the darkness out of the night
(you can fist fuck me hard all night)
But you can't take the party out of the girl
(But you can't take the cock-slut out of this girl)
Their image is not supposed to be "sexual" according to their interviews. Looking at the photo shoots, and the film clip that they produced, they are mass produced hooker wannabes.
They might be good singers, but I don't want to see the success of artists come at the price of:
1. Their musical expressivity
2. Their creative freedom
3. Consumer rights
****WARNING****RANT AHEAD******
I also hate that artists are sexually objectified to sell records. Women are mainly the target of this, and it makes me sick.
Why are women portrayed like this? Because this is what they think men want.
Men do NOT want a sexual object.
Guys might think that is what they want, but how many guys go "she's alright, but she has nothing in her head, I'd still fuck her though..."
If women want to be taken as a *serious* love/lust interest, DON'T be a Porn Bitch. Goddamn.
How many guys take female musicians seriously and buy their albums? Fuck all. Female musicans mainly aim their music at other females.
How many girls take male musicians seriously and buy their albums? Look at boy bands. Male artists aim their music at females AND males.
If you are a young girl, and you are looking for love, DON'T fall into the Porn Bitch trap. You will get as much respect as a cheeseburger.
If you want *LOVE* as opposed to *getting quickly fucked and forgotten* or *getting quickly fucked and derided seconds afterwards*, then VALUE yourself, and VALUE your opinions and expectations.
By being a Porn Bitch, you perpetuate shallow, superficial maltreatment of ALL women.
Have some standards. Men aren't worth turning into objects for.
(incidentally this is why I hate supre...)
*****RANT NOW AIMED AT SONY*******
FUCKING GIANT CORPORATE DICTATOR!!! AAARGH!!
I purchased the new "Walkman Digital Music player", because on the back of the box, it states "Plays back MP3, WMA and ATRAC files"
WELL IT DOESN'T!!!! I have looked through the file structure of the little thing, and there is NO .MP3 extension to be seen. Lots of .OMA files though. I also apparently need to use "Sonic Stage" to add files to this device. Why, I don't know. The kicker comes later, as I-pods set this precedent with I-Tunes. (The new I-Tunes RENAMES all your songs to some obscure thing, and you can't import to other PCs that have a different I-Pod associated with it, How fucked it that??)
Sure, this is just an obfuscated file structure, but I can't find my MP3s anymore!
I only get ONE licence for this piece of shitty software, and it locks the "Walkman" to a particular installation of the program! So I can't add music from ANY other computer! And it LOCKS my copy of the songs I transferred to the device so I can't play them until I "Check the songs back in"
WTF??????
This is the included "DRM" Technology . Which wasn't mentioned ANYWHERE when I purchased the machine.
The sale of this device breaches the Trade Practices Act (1974) in so many places it is beyond a joke.
False Advertising. (Says MP3 and WMA, can't play them back)
Unconcionable Conduct (Fails to notify me that it is defective from the box, with limitations on how I can use my music with it, relying on greater bargaining power of larger firm)
Breach of Statutory Warranties. (Purchaser is entitled to quiet possession of the goods)
So. I have complained to the ACCC, I called Sony and asked them to send me a firmware upgrade that enabled me to add MP3s without using Sonic stage, or converting them to ".oma" files.
They refused.
So I am sending a letter of demand to Sony, asking them to repair the device so that it functions as described on the box.
If they can't, I will try my best to have the ACCC fine them to hell.
If that doesn't work, I will be calling all the "investigative reporting" programs, and letting them know.
Tell everyone you can that Sony is trying illegal big corporation bully boy tactics, but subtly. If we don't defend consumer rights, we will lose them
"DRM" is illegal in Australia, thanks to the Trade Practices Act and our right to "Quiet possession of the goods". MAKE SURE SONY SUFFER.
If you have bought a "Walkman digital music player", call the ACCC and lodge a complaint about
1. False Advertising. (Says MP3 and WMA, can't play them back)
2. Unconcionable Conduct (Fails to notify me that it is defective from the box, with limitations on how I can use my music with it, relying on greater bargaining power of larger firm)
3. Breach of Statutory Warranties. (Purchaser is entitled to quiet possession of the goods)

| Freezing Your Jizz. |
[Jan. 21st, 2006|03:43 pm] |
Best alternative to hormone contraceptives.
1.Jizz in a cup.
2 Freeze in liquid nitrogen.
3 Get a vasectomy.
4 Never have to worry about accidentally knocking her up. Ever.
5 If you decide to have kids, unthaw that cup of goo, and IVF. While pretending you are doing it the proper way.
6. (and this is the best bit) Never have to deal with long term use of contraceptive pills decreasing sex drive or influencing weight or moods.
New scientist has an article on it... but I can't be bothered linking it.

Well. I never.

2. Know lots of martial arts.
3. Am naturally quiet and sneak up on people by accident.
4. Dress in black, a lot.
5. Climb things that look like you shouldn't be able to.
6. Know far,far too much about breaking into places.
7. Blend into most social situations easily.
8. Work for a giant world spanning japanese organisation.
Nuff said. The scary thing is I didn't actually INTEND it to work out this way. It just did....
anyway! things are still going well, I am trying to get my life together and organised (hence no time online), and my computer decided that it's motherboard was not 'cool enough' and kicked it out of the gang. So. I wait till I have the dough for new type of ram to go with new motherboard....
I am listening to marylin manson a bit more now, and I feel so alive and happy when doing it. I have sympathised with his music in the past, but I see it now as a wonderful insight into the world and pain of the pop culture/social outsiders. It makes me glad to know there are others who are not cocooned in the wooly, mind-numbing, soul crushing world of marshmallow p*rn-b!tches and their younger pop-tart aspirants.
feel lucky that I have updated!!! yes yes you do.
till next time!!!!!! woog. |

WOOO foam party. Much enjoyment to be had. I will forcibly drag my girlfriend along to the next one if she refuses! so sensual and fun, all at once! the next one is on thursday of O week. My toes are all wrinkly now though. I *may* have a real job soon. This would make my life so much better it would be scary. Hope it happens. met a lady at work today, who gave me the number of the IT person in charge of the grad program at immigration. Wow the networking skills. I have never had to look in the paper for a job. ever. Someone always says "there is a job going here, want in?". roleplaying will start up again soon, I have figured out part of my personality that has been bugging me for ages, and I am in a pretty comfortable place right now. I love life. So I am a happy bouncy goth! *bounce bounce* |

wow I am poor. I owe over $1500 to various institutions and people. poo. Work is not giving me enough shifts. I am so great and they don't want me. So. off to find other employment to supplement my meagre earnings. eep I am poor. sorry if I seem to be obsessing, but debt bothers me really badly. family upbringing and all. so this is just a rant on how poor I am, and how shit it is to owe people. I want to be able to give, not sponge. luckily things may be looking up soon, which is good!
Cleaning my room (well trying to) and finding all kinds of neat stuff. good thing I wrote a "to do list" or I would be so distracted I would be playing with the fun stuff now instead of working, speaking of which, updating a journal doesn't count as cleaning my room, just my head. ok off for more cleaning now. |

Numb. trying really hard to feel, not working so far. I don't know what to do. I am receiving reassurance from my friends, but the uncaring lifelessness inside continues. I really like so many people. I can't bring myself to care overly much though, no matter how hard I try. this fucking sucks. I have to learn to open my heart again. fuck.
I hate this. |
