if I vanish....

Posted by alexandra_k on August 14, 2019, at 2:01:06

if i vanish you'll know what happened to me.
i'll have joined the countlessly many others who topped themselves because they didn't want to go on living, like this, like a slave or a prisoner in the rubbishy rubbishy rubbish of this sh*t heap of a country.

it isn't a threat

it isn't a promise

it's just a FYI. an FYI kind of a thing.

i keep thinking of the zulu tribes in south africa. bands of young men. going about... doing what they will. guns.

ours don't have guns.

they may have knives.

mostly it's just about going about in gangs.

there's a whole thing that happens. a meeting. my tribe meets your tribe. like when dogs meet. they stand up tall with their hackles up and their heads in the air. then they sniff each others *rs*s for a while to see what's up.

then there's some version of that that happens...

...

all day.

people end up spending all day going to talk to x about y and then asking 'what's the hold up?' then going to talk to z about b and asking' what's the hold up' and then going to the next guy..

what's teh hold up?
what's teh hold up?

why isnt' anything being produced?

what's teh hold up?

what's teh hold up?

there doesn't appear to be...

anybody home.

and that's okay
i'll just phone you up
every single day
every single morning of every single day
i'll just phone you up.
i'll just ask:
'are you okay'?
'are you okay'?
do you think you could manage to process...
i don't know...
a food grant for me today?
i'll just wait in reception for...
what...
half a day?
to see if you will process a food grant for me today...

while the government workers travelling on business get half of a weeks nutritious food budget for one meal.

while the government workers travelling on business get all the 1 bedroom apartments with full kitchen facilities to prepare their own meals while getting half of a weeks nutrious food budget to eat in restaurants.

that seems like a really terrific use of the money they world bank (or whatever international organisations) gives to the new zealand government for the socio-economic development of it's people.

the people going for welfare...
they can mind the people whose job it is to look after them.
all the people whose job it is to process their special needs applications so they can pay their power bills
all the people whose job it is to process their food grant because it was totally unforseeable that they had to eat
the people on welfare...
can spend all day looking after the people with the money

are you okay?
are you okay?
can you process my thing, today?
oh, you don't know how to process my thing...
let me contact your manager for you.
oh, you don't know who your manager is.
oh, you don't know what you are supposed to do when you don't know what to do.
oh let me
let me let me
let me
let me do all of the things for you
all of the things that you are paid to do
let me do all of the things for you

for free

while i don't have food.

yeah.

good job that.

for you.

good use of government resources...

the people who are paid to help are the same as those who are responsible for the creation and maintenence of the problem.

if they do their job really really really well then they will pay district health boards $1,000 per day (maybe even 2x that, now) to keep people in hospital.

instead of giving the person... less than that per week to mind themselves.

give it to the distict health board.

so the district health board members can fund their twenty-five percent pay increase for next year.

good job.

good job.

good job, new zealand!

f*ck*ng psychopaths

we have intentionally pursued gamma baby land.

the people in this country (the bioethics people) do not think that we are morally or ethically responsible for observational studies. i mean to say that they honestly seem to think that people do not need to seek ethics approval for observational studies -- only for interventional studies.


we have intentionally engaged in observational studies of the effects of oxygen deprivation on premature infants.

we have intentionally engaged in observational studies of different varieties of surfactant on oxygen uptake on premature infants.

we have intenitonally enaged in observational studies of cold and mouldy housing for babies born.

we have intenitonally engaged in observational studies of the effects of repeated head injury (force impacts in rugby where kids play with no helmets).

we have intententionally lowered the drinking age to 18 such that drunkenness (to the point of cleaners being required to scrub vomit from the hallways) is considered normal and par for the course in all of the university residential halls.

we have intentionally encouraged high school kids to drink.

we have intentionally encouraged smoking (e.g., by delaying legislation to increase the age from 18, by enforcing no sales to under 18).

we have intenitonally encouraged people to inhale who the crap knows what, now, with the vaporisers. in public spaces.

we seem to be doing everything we can to halt the cognitive / intellectual development of our people.

we normalise and okay intellectual handicap as 'normal'. we normalise and okay the idea that school is 'boring' and 'stupid'.

we fail the kids with ability.

we progress the kids who we think will be incapable of surviving without us.

this is a nasty nasty nasty toxic land

nothing grows, here
