Technology is becoming a parent.

As technology seems to be at the forefront of every human’s life, we should really stop and ask ourselves what we are setting the future up for. A future where boyscouts are using google on their Android phones to find out which berries are edible. A future where the “Boyscouts of America” (the very supposed aspect of learning “survival”), embrace a computer as if it might be growing near a mushroom next to a waterfall somewhere.

We are slowly, but surely destroying the basis of human communication and knowledge, and replacing it with the cool, sleek modern interface of an operating system. We’re so “advanced”, that in about 5 years there will be children googling on how to tie their shoelaces because Mommy is chatting on Facebook all day while Daddy’s looking at porn in the basement.

Ultimately we should be asking ourselves what the true draw is. I would have to say it’s that everyone is somewhere at the same place, and you can talk to them all at the same time. Subconsciously it’s somewhat like this big party, just for you, where anyone and everyone in the world can talk with you, while the real-life repercussions are detachment from societal forms of communication due to lack of actually using it. The more that people work in “Yeah, here’s my e-mail”, the more that people begin to see it as a possible means of actually knowing who someone is. Here’s the psychological-psychotic kicker……

In reality when someone says something to your face, there will always be the judgement aspect of us that recognizes if they are being deceitful, or if what they say is the truth. Technology creates a “buffer”, where people no longer have to worry about such things. So you get people hooking up online all the time, and having “online relationships”. It’s similar to a romance novel, other than one pitfall. The responses might as well be a script from a shitty Hollywood movie. They’re thought-out, well organized, sardonic, but completely lame. While we revel in the ability to be “witty” on the internet, we lose the most important aspect of what it is to be a human being…. Shooting from the hip.

Conceptual Intolerance

The basis of any interaction between two life forms generally boils down to two factors – communication, or dominance. Communication of conceptual framework is generally at the forefront of the actions between mother->child, with a mixed amount of dominance as well.


We see it a lot in the animal kingdom, practice it ourselves, yet seem to place ourselves on a self-made pedestal when mentally comparing ourselves to animals. Enter stage right Environmentalism. For the past 30+ years, we have slowly began to realize that due to our rate of population, our selfishness, and our stubborn mentalities, our planet is being covered. I am not going to go all boo-hoo on you and mope around in the details, but any of you with half a clue are aware of the exponential increase of the rate of human population. Simply put – soon we’ll have no room left (But don’t worry, everyone gets a Dodge Viper!).

There is plenty that we *could* do, but the problem seems to be that *we* don’t run the show. It’s a hierarchical setup, and no, there’s not a few at the top, there is not “top”. There’s only some idiots who are abusing power. I find it interesting when people talk about secret societies or the global elite, they also tend to revere them in a manner out of fear.

When all is said and done, and taking care of the planet is important, take a look at the job you have been doing, and then take a look at the job the ants you walk on have been doing. Who’s doing the better job? I am not saying you have to live exactly like an ant, but I am saying it makes sense to take advice from the animals since they’ve been here a bit longer. Science will tell us that animals are much less “intelligent”, yet intelligence is a man-made thought. What good is having a large brain if you’re still a frickin’ idiot?
