Illegal Aliens

People seem to get really worked up about the whole illegal immigration thing. Personally I don't see the reason for the big fuss. This is a fairly large country, why not share? If we do run low on space, we can always chop down more tress right?? You have to hire some folk to cut down those trees, so that covers the need for jobs thing right?? Plus, America has been bringing foreigners over since the founding; whether it was willing, or unwillingly. So why the change of heart now?? smh. Anyways, i guess i'll illustrate some stuff about the issue.

Hey, maybe we can use this topic as inspiration for a potential Heroes spin-off, as an attempt to save the series..."Save the immigrant, save the world"??????? Maybe?????

Foot Fetish

Now this post is in no way a confession. I do not find feet a particularly stimulating part of the human body. Although,  I am aware that some quit commonly do. Thus, this falls under the topic of things people I know are into, but that I don't care or know much about. SO, this is where the research comes in. A foot fetish is, the pure admiration or sexual attraction of barefeet. Usually pertaining to men who can become sexually aroused from the sight of any part of women's feet(including, toes, arches and soles. For obvious reasons there are no links pertaining to this topic......

OH, and shout outs to Biddy & Chihiro for volunteering their feets for this project! pics to be uploaded soon.

Gun Laws

One current debate I have been hearing a lot about recently is this whole Gun Debate thing. Should any ole shmuck with a permit be allowed to stroll around in public strapped?? I say HELL NO.  I personally don't think you need to carry a gun at the park where little kids and puppies play. OR, sitting down in a restaurant at the table right next to me. Just not sure if that's entirely necessary to ensure ones safety. I can see how it could be effective in ensuring public safety, but can also see how it could go HORRIBLY wrong.

Learning Guitar to Get Laid

Guitar

Recently I have been wanting to pick up an instrument. I am sold on guitar. We all are familiar with The Guitar, you know: that stringed musical instrument with a fretted fingerboard, with typically incurved sides, and six or twelve strings, played by plucking or strumming with the fingers or a pick, and is somehow recognized as an instrument for attracting the attentions of beautiful women. Though, what isn't these days? Still...I might test that theory.

Narcissism

I know for sure that this blogging thing will take some getting use to. Mostly, it's me getting over the feeling of being too public, or too into myself/ what I am doing. I don't wanna be tempted to get caught up in this rushing wave of pandemic narcissism that has been sweeping the country lately. Narcissism is literally a disease, by the way. Correction, actually more like a disorder. Narcissistic Personality Disorder is one of the cluster B personality disorders, and is commonly defined as ‘a pervasive pattern of grandiosity, need for admiration, and a lack of empathy’. It's not good to be too wrapped up in yourself folks.

Render Farms

A render Farm is basically a bunch of computers hooked up to make one super computer. Animators like Pixar are know for using Render Farms to produce incredibly detailed computer generated images.  It is possible to build your own personal render farm. Something I may choose to research a bit further.
