Od svega osta bol
Ellou, I was away hoping things will calm down and I won’t have to write any opinions, but it’s too late now.
But first - http://picasaweb.google.com/andrea.reach - my new photo album, I’ll see what I’ll do about the one on Flickr.
I got my hands on some good music again. Thanks to Dixy I’m listening to Babyshamles and Morrissey, and there’s also Something Corporate, an Emo band I guess. I’ve been thinking about emo, and came to the conclusion that much more people would like it, if Emo-kids weren’t so bloody annoying. However, I am not surrounded by them, so they don’t get to annoy me, and i can enjoy the music without looking at them 
And now, Lebanon. I try, i really do, to understand Israel’s actions… but the truth is, they are showing off their power by destroying a country. I know all about Hezbollah, bad bad radicals, killing Israelis. And than in a fit of logic, Israelis are attacking the killers of civilians by …. killing the civilians. Where did i last encounter such logic? where o where…. Oh yeees, when Muslims were proving to be a peaceful nation by killing innocent people. It proves to me one thing, all killers are alike. Muslim, Jew, Nazi, Communist, Democrat… they are all the same. They find a great excuse, and start a genocide. - HEY You can’t compare what nazis did to what jews are doing now! - Watch me. Hezbollah is a terrorist organization hiding behind innocent and/or idiotic civilians. Jews (and i’m using “Jews” cause “Israelis” is such a crappy word) are killing those civilians, hoping to achieve what? When all civilians from Lebanon are dead Hezbollah will have no one to hide behind. Wuhu! CHILDREN people! You are killing CHILDREN!!! And in case you’re wondering THIS is a child:
And I really tried. This is not an “all jews must die” rant. This is an “all wars must stop” rant. I know some Israelis, they are great people, i love talking to them, they aren’t responsible for what’s going on. But someone is. And that someone should spend the rest of his very long life thinking of all the children whose lives he took. What they could have grown up to be. How much they would have loved, smiled, the games they would have played, hugs they would have given, happiness they would have spread. If I was from Lebanon, and lucid, i would stop showing the world pictures of dead children’s bodies, i would show them pictures of what those bodies looked like when they were alive and smiling.
There was a way to bring down Hezbollah without killing so many people. I’m sure of it. All this… is just someone showing off. This is not an accident. How many members of Hezbollah did they kill for each civilian that died? I’m guessing none. Prove me wrong. And than make me think it’s worth it.
Ham and eggz
Oh I just LOVE Christian holidays. No, no I don’t. They drag all the hypocrisy in people up on the surface and make me look at it. Today a title in the papers: “Pensioners without Ham and Eggs on Easter”. Well bu-fucking-ho, I’m sure their lives are filled with joy, money, food and sex every other day of the year but, alas, today they had no ham and eggs. I share my pain with them to the point of suicide. How about a week from now someone writes and article: “Pensioners without Bread and Water and Roof over Their Heads on 24th of April”? noooo…. I don’t think they will. So please, spare me the false compassion on Easter, Christmas and whatever other holiday you’re enforcing on me.
Retarded are we.
Bush is planning to attack Iran, to make Teheran do something.
And NASA is planning to plunge a … thing into the moon and make part of it explode.
We really think we are Gods don’t we?
Iran is not my favorite country, I don’t like religious states (like my own actually), but there is no justification for attacking them. I don’t know who I’m talking to here. Everyone I know is against the war… and those who aren’t are out of my reach. I feel helpless in face of such stupidity and evil and selfishness.
Blow up the moon to find water so we can go live there… that’s what we’re doing. We destroyed the Earth and now we need to move to another planet and we start by destroying a part of it.
I’m disgusted by humans today.
Can you imagine being 12, living your life, going to school, having a crush on some girl or boy, playing football with your friends or discovering make up… and one day a loud noise wakes you up, and you spend the rest of your life with no leg, no arm and half of your face missing. Why? Well, it’s a complicated political story. But I’m only a kid??? Yes, well, you were in a wrong place at a wrong time. But I was in my house, my house is supposed to be my safe place!
What would you tell a kid like that? Would you explain the whole Teheran – Iran – America situation? Do you think s/he would give a flying fuck? We are worse than animals. I will never understand why people fear the devil and hell, devil is like an innocent child compared to us.
Sex and why they don’t want us to do it
Sex. What is up with sex?! Why is everyone obsessed with it? Nobody wants people to have sex any more. It became the main goal of all religious and political leaders of the world. It’s not about oil, or money or territory… they just want people to stop having sex. Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus… I need to check up on Buddhism… they are all convincing me that sex is bad. EVIL! If you do it you will go to hell. You can only do it when a man sings a piece of paper and puts a ring on your hand. Why???? Does that physically prepare me for it? Now in our Sabor, politicians are thinking of ways to stop gays from having sex. Gay sex is evil too. Masturbation? Evil. We even have scientists working every day on how to create human being without use of sex!!!
How did it come to this?
Apparently God created Adam and Eve… however he did not create a priest to marry them so I can only assume they had extramarital relations. And before Eve there was only Adam. And there was nothing in this world that made him horny. Do you think he ever looked down at his balls and just wondered what the hell those dangly, hairy little things are doing there? And he walked around naked a lot… cause that is the way God wanted him to walk around. God is a voyeur.
So there was Adam and his useless genitalia, walking around eating strawberries, watching his chest hair grow and wondering if there was a purpose to his existence. And than one dreary evening as he was walking by the forest, God jumped him from the dark, broke his rib, and took it away leaving Adam tend to his wounds. For you see God has had a wet dream last night… he dreamt of a creature, that looked a bit like him, but was softer and pinkier and not quite so hairy and smelled very nice. And he woke up all sticky and disturbed. So he decided, in his omnipotence, to create one such creature, and peep on her as well. But he needed the original code, which he lost, so he decided to use one of Adam’s bones. His treatment of Adam that night really wasn’t malice, he was just overly excited, and Adam, it is said, forgave him soon when he saw what God was excited about. He looked at the lovely boobied creature when he felt something tickling his stomach. He looked down and it was a snake, a vicious snake was crawling on him! So he took a stick and hit it to push it off, but than he fell on the ground wailing in pain, as it was, in fact, his first erection. And God laughed “Hey, I didn’t know it could to that. Amazing.” And Eve looked at him and his erection and in her music-like voice she said “Pih, what use could that little thing serve?” “It’s not little!” Adam said “Well it’s not very big either.” God added.
However, when Adam stopped moping, and Eve stopped making fun of his body, they got along pretty well. And God was happy. But Adam still didn’t know why the thing kept tickling his stomach every time Eve was around. So one day he called God and asked him.
“Hey, do you know what I’m supposed to do with this?”
“Nope.” God answered “No idea. Give me some time to check up on it. I’ll let you know.”
And indeed, a few days later God appeared before Adam and told him “I got it! The thing is supposed to go somewhere into her, I’m not really sure where, so turn her around a bit, see what’s the best fit, but that’s definitely it.”
“Oh! Rad, thank you God”
“No prob. Btw this is very puzzling, tigers for instance don’t have this problem… try it out, and if you like it, I’ll install the same function on all my other creatures.”
(Apparently, snails voted against it)
And that afternoon Adam approached Eve and told her he wanted to try and put his thing somewhere into her. But she had a headache and so they waited till tomorrow. And tomorrow it was good. And Adam loved it. And Adam wanted to do it every damn day three times for 10 minutes. Eve was freaking out.
So one day when Adam was horny, he walked up to her and asked her to lie down for him, but she said no.
“No, I can’t I’m making a … a… broom! Yes, a broom.”
“What’s a broom?”
“It is a tool with which I shall clean the dirt from the ground.”
“But the ground is all dirty?”
“And I shall clean it all.”
A few days later Adam approached her again and asked her to lie down but she said no.
“I can’t, I’m making dishes.”
“What is dishes?”
“Tools from which we shall eat”
“But we have hands to eat from?”
“Well now we shall have this too”
And so days passed, and Eve invented more and more tools, which she used to do “things”, and the “things” she named chores. And Adam was not happy.
“God, she doesn’t want me to put my thing into her any more”
“Yes, I saw… I’m not sure how I can help you.”
“Well I was thinking…”
“Yees?”
“How about if you made it have a purpose. Like her chores. If every time we did it the grass would be freshly cut. Or the fruits would grow bigger. Or… something like that. Something that would make her happy.”
“Well,” God said “I’ve been toying with this one idea for a while now, but I’m not sure you’d like it. Or Eve for that matter.”
“Oh anything! Anything God but I must have her again!”
“Very well! Since I want to make this a growing, interactive planet, I thought I’d give you some limited ability to make creatures yourselves. I’d still be in charge, but you’d do the actual work.”
“Wow, sounds great. And these creatures, they would just appear?”
“Eerm… no, not exactly, you’d have to push them out of your body.”
“WHAT!?”
“Well since you’re the one who wants to be putting things into other things…”
“No WAY! NO WAY IN HELL! She has so many holes! She can do it!”
“Go talk it over with her and let me know tomorrow.”
… and so it was that Eve said “ooooh… a little baby all for myself….” And cursed all women for millenniums to come. And they lived happily. Having sex, which they named sex, and Eve waited for the baby. But since there was a bug in the program they didn’t come quite as fast as God expected. But they kept trying none the less. And Adam learned about foreplay. And mostly, all was well.
But then one day Eve was PMS-ing… and a sad day for all humanity it was. God came to her and told her to go pick some bananas while he had a word with Adam “Men stuff, you know.” And she just lost it.
“You can’t tell me what to do! You are not the master of me!” she yelled at both of them.
“I created you!” said God.
“And I made you come!” said Adam.
“Ha! So what?! I can do the same and better with my own two hands and a cucumber! And you!” she turned to God “You created me, so you thing that gives you the right to tell me what to do!? Watch this!”
She turned and grabbed the apple from the forbidden tree and ate it. Than she looked at Adam “And what about you? Will you be his biatch all your life? EAT THE EFFING APPLE!” And the wimp he was, he ate it. And God was mighty pissed.
“That’s it!” God roared “I shall take away what you love the most! There will be no more happy sex for you! You shall suffer, and beg, and play stupid games to have sex! You shall have to pick flowers and invent alcohol to get laid! You shall multiply and grow and have systems and those systems will prohibit sex of any kind! Eve! They shall ban production of cucumbers! They shell whip you for touching yourself! They shall make you hate your body and all things you can do with it! And Adam! There shall be men! Hairier than even you are! Who shall want to make use of your holes! And your children shall want their holes used as well! And it shall be joyous, but all shall hate it, and hate your children for it! And you shall be in shame! HA! IN YOUR FACE!”
Of course, God had forgotten that he hath given people free will as well, so things didn’t go quite so smoothly, but his followers, knowing this story, are doing their best that his laws be obeyed. They are the ones who are truly misunderstood in this world.
But let us help them get over their vengeful laws.
Next time you see a nun, or a Jehovah’s Witness, or a religious freak of any sort, don’t make fun of him/her, take them by the hand and lead them into the dark and make sweet, sweet love with them till they realize that NO law that prohibits sex of any kind, can be good.
Yes my daughter?
Hee i almost forgot. Dubravka Naumovski, the woman who was fired cause she’s getting a divorce, is given her job back. Pater (Father T. Trstenjak) claimed she was divorcing her husband and leaving the children for another man. But that’s a load of bull. Now, I am happy that the woman will at least get to keep her job since she will be a single mother of two ‘cause her husband is leaving. But I’m not writing this cause I’m such a joyous person, but because I can’t wait to see what sanctions shall befall our Pater. After all, he broke the law. Since he’s a catholic priest he would normally be above any law in this country, but with eyes of the atheistic community on them… (“them” being the invisible little men who are supposed to make sure the law is not broken)
And yet… dare I have such faith in this country?
Spring and peace and love and crap like that :) don’t you just love it!

WOW! Today is the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination!
“The objectives of the Day For the International Day for the Elimination of Racial discrimination in 2006, the primary objectives of marking the day are to:
- Encourage interaction and cross-fertilization of cultures and civilizations through education and awareness-raising, with a view to promoting mutual respect, diversity and tolerance;
- Increase the level of public awareness and understanding of everyday racist attitudes or behaviors which, even if not openly aggressive or violent, do humiliate and hurt, convey disregard, disrespect and marginality and can be provocative. They also affect the quality of life of people, their attitude towards themselves and the attitudes of those around them;
-Foster the importance of dialogue and mutual understanding among people as being essential for wiping out everyday racism, for promoting mutual understanding, tolerance and peace;
- Encourage the full and active participation of all stakeholders in the elaboration, planning and implementation of anti-discrimination activities with a view to generating a sense of involvement and ownership in the anti-discrimination struggle in order to contribute to progressive change within their own communities and the world at large.”
I love it! So do your best and don’t limit yourself to just one day there are 300 and something more you can use
A za one koji ne govore Engleski, moj prijevod čitavog članka
Borba protiv svakodnevnog rasizma
Moramo se boriti protiv svih vrsta netolerancije slaveći raznolikosti i različitosti koje obogaćuju obitelj ljudi. Ali moramo raditi na smanjivanju onih razlika koje se nameću, a ne izabiru, koje govore o uskraćivanju, a ne ispunjavanju i koje potiču ksenofobne razgovore o relativnim zaslugama i vrijednostima pojedinaca, baziranim na stereotipima koji se pridodaju njihovoj rasi, religiji ili etničkom podrijetlu.
Louise Arbour – UN-ov komesar za ljudska prava
Zašto baš 21 Ožujka
Međunarodni dan eliminacije rasne diskriminacije obilježava se svake godine 21 ožujka aktivnostima pod vodstvom ureda UNovog komesara za ljudska prava u Genevi, New Yorku i terenaca. (hej, riječ je sasvim OK )
Ovogodišnja tema je borba protiv svakodnevnog rasizma. Prošlo je četrdeset i šest godina od masakra u Sharpevillu, gdje je 69 demonstratora ubijeno tokom mirnog protesta protiv apartheida 21. ožujka. UN je izabrao ovaj datum kako bi privukao pažnju na stalnu borbu protiv svih vrsta rasne diskriminacije. Rezolucijom 2124 iz 1966e, Opća Skupština UN-a je apelirala na svoje zemlje članice kako bi u borbi protiv diskriminacije koristili edukaciju i kulturu, i poticali javne medije i književno stvaralaštvo ka otklanjanju predrasuda i pogrešnih vjerovanja, kao što je ono o superiornosti jedne rase nad drugom, koja upravo potiču diskriminaciju.
Od tada, unatoč brojnim naporima, ne samo UNa već i čitave međunarodne zajednice, rasizam ostaje jedna od nesreća našeg vremena. Ljudska bića diljem svijeta pate od zakonske ili individualne diskriminacije, od nasilja i zločina iz mržnje, od uznemiravanja i vjerskog progona. Nove vrste diskriminacije pobijaju sve uspjehe koje smo ostvarili: Internet se koristi za sirenje rasizma, broj žrtava trgovine ljudima raste i ksenofobni argumenti u političkim raspravama su u porastu.
Ciljevi dana
Glavni ciljevi za obilježavanje Dana eliminacije rasne diskriminacije 2006. su:
- Poticati interakciju i križanje kultura i civilizacija kroz edukaciju i povećanje svjesnosti, s pogledom na promicanje međusobnog poštovanja, raznolikosti i tolerancije;
- Podići stupanj javne svjesnosti i razumijevanja o svakodnevnom rasističkom ponašanju koje, čak i kada nije otvoreno agresivno ili nasilno, ponižava i vrijeđa, prenosi poruku neuvažavanja, nepoštivanja i marginaliziranja i može biti provokativno. Utječe i na kvalitetu života ljudi, njihov stav prema sebi i stav ljudi oko njih;
- Njegovati važnost dijaloga i međusobnog razumijevanja među ljudima kao osnove za uništavanje svakodnevnog rasizma, za promociju međusobnog razumijevanja, tolerancije i mira;
- Ohrabrivati puno i aktivno sudjelovanje svih interesnih grupa, planiranje i uvođenje anti-diskriminacijskih aktivnosti s pogledom na stvaranje osjećaja uključenosti i vlasništva u anti-diskriminacijskoj borbi, kako bi se pridonijelo naprednoj promjeni unutar njihovih vlastitih zajednica i svijetu općenito.
Blind leading the blind
ah… religion as an enterprise… Dubravka Naumovski is a woman who translates mass (which, btw, is on Croatian TV every Sunday at 11am, khm) into sign language, for the deaf catholics. she’s about to be divorced, and our holy bible-worshiping people called the TV station to complain … and since she is now a sinner… she was fired from her job. which she has done for 4 years now, and apparently did a good job of it too. but now she is a sinner! burn her!! dare i even ask WHY she is divorcing? did anyone ask?
an incredibly smart comment came from one father Tonci Trstenjak, that “if she was not seen on screen, but just her voice was heard, it would be ok”, like… if she translated for the blind??? because blind people only catch the frequency at which female voice can be heard??? -_- i KNOW what he meant, but it would have been so much better if he kept his mouth shut.
I would also like to point out that our “great” “singer”, ustasa, and a man who is the fourth, missing link of the so called holy trinity, Thompson, was also recently divorced, even church allowed him to divorce… and I wonder why they did that, cause his wife didn’t beat him up, didn’t cheat on him and didn’t have another man’s child. And as far as I know those are only reasons for which church allows divorce. And even then, if you are a woman, they will suggest you stay with him and let him beat you, or cheat on you for after all, that is such a small sacrifice compared to a bunch of new catholics you can give birth to.
Le crépuscule du soir
A few more notes on Gotovina. Screw the war, I’m making him my personal hero. He showed a huge foot into mouth of all his followers. The man who was in French foreign legion… is now the greatest catholic ever there are a few amazing phenomenas happening here… some people think less of him, like, he is no longer the hero he was, no longer as innocent as he was (we are, btw, supposed to hope he is INNOCENT of killing of serbian civilians… but the fact is, a lot of people hope he will be found inocent in the sence that he did kill them but they deserved it, and this turn of events is making them uncomfortable). Some changed their story from “all serbs should die” to “this is every christian’s duty” (isn’t it every christian’s duty not only to send condolences when someone dies, but also NOT to kill?) and of course the phenomenon of Gotovina himself… did he finally discover god? “I found Jesus in prison” “Yeah? What did he do to end up there?”
