Bride of Chucky
Good news for Sirius - after a week of news and pissed off liberals regarding AAR's exclusive move to XM, Sirius announced that NPR joined the Sirius family (exclusively). I subscribe to both satellite carriers and have done so for 2 years now. Since the advent of satellite radio, the only time my terrestrial radio is in the "on" position is for Stern. He's headed to Sirius Satellite Radio in 2006.
I enjoy choice, the opportunity of infinite possibility, and the Federal Communications Commission is attempting to affect my choices. It may be doubtful any senator will succeed in violating the sanctity of paid service subscriptions to satellite, but the very threat of abolishing all that is considered indecent by a few white-ish ivy league frat boy skull & bones politicians & their latent female cohorts is proof that every positive charge generates an equally negative shock with which it must compete. I've read enough AP articles introducing Stern as "Foul Mouthed Howard Stern" or "Shock Jock Howard Stern" - this from the wire we call "associated press." Journalists with stagnant jobs need people like Stern as much as the politicians who use STern as a scapegoat for their personal guilt over sexual freedom. The Common Good needs Stern to help expose lousy journalism and gullible screeners who feed "news" to the general public on a daily basis. Every day a stern fan calls into a news show with a false claim, and every day the screeners let him/ her in. It isn't a foul mouthed culture to me, it's wise exposure of a faulty foul mouthed media. It's Chuck Palahniuk's Project Mayhem. It's the death of terrestrial radio and the exposure of journalism as nothing more than a pack of lawyers without a courtroom. A lot of us have been working very hard to help this process along.
Here at the dawn of the digital age we are watching entire systems of communication change according to personal choice. In the long tail marketing arena, pop culture becomes personalized and niche oriented. As we continue to fragment, we essentially remain part of the same composte heap. The motherboard of my apple looks no different than Chicago from 30k feet. In an attempt to embrace efficiency we have galvanized communicative entropy. Somehow we are becoming a population divided by those who revel in their new options, using them to change, and those who remain part of the drive toward stasis.
On a humorous note, as I'm listening to Stern right now - I just heard an ad (on terrestrial radio) for "Napster, it's the new radio" - comforting to know that terrestrial radio isn't just dying, it's committing suicide. It's opting for an end. Unwittingly facilitating change.
As our own philosopher kings, we learn about chioces and participating in the act of making them...which is why the push against a subjective concept like "decency" merely serves as the means to a dumbed-down end. What a waste of time it is to make rules about more rules just so we can make more rules. I have a tough enough time understanding the Torah. Choosing to dumb-down, choosing to engage in the idea that decency requires a mandate is a sign of fear.
Ignorance of any issue is a choice - imposing mediocrity and operating in accordance with such an imposition is a choice, and it perpetuated ww2. In this day It exists in multiple formats - politics, the major labels, etc. Exclusive Social Groups of people who impose mediocrity out of fear of what seems unacceptable or "indecent" - and thoughts of "indecency" lead to mistrust and anger. Fearful humans without virtue who opt for anger over knowledge. Stuck in the cave. Their allegory is one with little kinetic value, by choice. Manipulating their own energy so as to remain stagnant. Allowing themselves to peak without ever looking up.
well.....fuck that. don't tell me my sister's ugly, get her a date.
btw, i'm coming east next week. Here's an mp3. Takako Minekawa "Fantastic Cat" (right click/ save as....)
...and speaking of Project Mayhem, here are 2 things you can do today to annoy a corporation near you:
1) repeatedly fax pieces of black construction paper
2) do what this guy does: My Hero (incidentally, i want to bear his children)
