Relationship Status:: In a Relationship
About Me:: I care not for labels and stereotypes. I look like a "punk" but I make ambient, noise and power electronics and have NEVER been drunk or wasted on anything in my entire life. I love funeral doom metal, drone music, and anti-music such as noise and power electronics and I have a mohawk, spikes, and bullets.

I believe anybody committed to a genre/stereotype as an absolute is an insecure person. Speaking on absolutes, I believe in very few of them. This is an updated belief recently from believing in none, when a friend said I like dealing in absolutes with a comment saying any president is a bad one. I realize now my arrogance and ignorance in claiming there are no absolutes so here is one absolute I believe in: Capitalism, and any form of government that empowers itself by exploitation of its citizens while never letting them have any say in their lives, is absolutely harmful to us as humans and as a society and it has absolutely failed.

Blanket statements such as "All rap sucks" or "Emo sucks" are just that, BLANKETS that mask ones insecurity and intolerance even though most of those people will claim to be "informed" and fighting for "equality." Keep telling yourself that. *note that this extends beyond music to religions, factions, people etc. When it comes to things like politicians, police officers, fascists, I believe one must understand that these people are programmed that way. That was instilled in them through "heritage" or upbringing. Societal environments build our characters, they are not written in our DNA. While I will agree a fascist is a very bad thing, they are human as well as you or I and have been exploited. Politicians and law enforcement are also human and while a lot of them end up in power trips, it is the position we must eradicate, not the people.

Everybody is a hypocrite somehow. To live your life completely by your ideals or ethics is to live extremely painfully. I hate corporate control and all the shady shit that has come with it, but to refuse to use ANY product that is made by a company that is not doing SOMETHING vile is impossible. Especially for those in the lower socio-economic class who are feeding children or families. Not everybody can dumpster dive and squat. Please keep that in mind.

Otherwise, I am happy and sad. I am calm and passive yet one of the angriest and most intense people you may meet. Treat me with respect and I will return the courtesy.

Great video. Thanks for putting the work into that, I'll definitely be telling people to check it out rather than wasting my breath, since you already did it.

Hope you don't mind but I had to promote it to the front and center of Mohawks Rock at least for a little while, since thats probably what a lot of people are looking for when coming here.

oh and nice patch did you use white out or fabric paint?

Apr 25, 2008
Lauren

actually they developed along with drug-induced schizophrenia from chronic drug use. speedballs and acid mostly. but the sedatives or muscle relaxants they give me are weak compared to the effect of a good ol bong hit. even stoned i shake but not as much. enough to type but still...

ive been clean of heroin and coke fer like 8 months thru the state rehab facility. in NA now. im just a pothead which would count as relapse if i really cared. if it helps my tremors ill do it.

you ever squat?

Apr 25, 2008
Lauren

i take it you used to cut alot? i used to put my smokes out on my skin cause i liked it and would cut always in one place though when it would start to heal id slash it open again. and street perform where i would hold my thumb over a flame on a lighter (really heavy calluses and nerve damage prevented it hurting.) and people would place bets as to how long i coud hold it there. this one guy put down a twenty for 40 seconds i got a minute and 3 seconds and ended up with 3rd degree burns.

as for the awesomeness of that book. wow. that all i got to say.

and thanks for cracking open old wounds to relate man. you need to come down to maryland. we could hang.

Socially Unacceptable

that sucks, your lucky to live in new york though, alot of really good bands come from new york...unless you live on the other side of the state :/

punk is almost completly dead in my part of michigan, the only kind of scene here is EMO, and emo music SUCKS.

May 14, 2008
Socially Unacceptable

yeah that sucks you live so far from the city.

yeah where i live in michigan there is nothing, im the only kid in the entire town that tries to stay faithful to punk music, and subculture, sure theyre are kids who wear misfits teeshirts, but thats only because hot topic sells them and they have a cool skull on the front, half of them have never even heard their music before, and all the kids with mohawks are junkies and never put then up. Pretty much everybody i live by only listens to EMOSCENE/Alternative music, nobodys ever heard of Aus Rotten, or Reagan Youth. its fuckin sick, the nearest decent punk scene by me is a good 40 mins away

May 15, 2008
Socially Unacceptable

and may i mention my particular hate for Hot Topic, they sell out good punk bands faster than the idiots that buy the shit have time to figure out that what there wearing; therefore we have a bunch of ignorant dumbasses walking around with misfits teeshirts and social distiortion shoe laces statin they love punk. When moste of them cant tell you who wrote "Die Die My Darling."

May 15, 2008
Socially Unacceptable

i make my own clothes, fuck corperations

May 15, 2008
Socially Unacceptable

yeah, i play death metal and grindcore more than anything, i can also play some ska, and funk though. I try to live by punk ideals, but as you said everybody is a hypocrite somehow, for instance, i work for Mc Donalds, wich completly contradicts my communist, and punk views, but in a consumer nation, you need money, and unfortunatly the fast food industry is one of the very few places left that will hire unskilled labor. Yeah i organize shows for highschool nights at my uncles club, but i do that for free, just because i love music. Not to mention working in the fast food industry provides me intristing opportunitys, in the words of Chuck Palahniuk "Gorilla terrorist of the food industry." [:

Ive always wnted to see code 13, did they put on a good show?

Jun 27, 2008
Steve-o

oh really. dang man that sucks I didn't know your hair can start to break off cause of that. What do you recommend I do? look on the picture where my sides are cut with a razorblade. It looks basically the same just maybe a half inch longer now

cause I've been using just Johnny be good gel cause that shit smells delcious and blow drying with a comb.

Jun 27, 2008
Steve-o

hahah oh man that's crazy
yeah I got some pretty shabby shampoo and conditioner that is doing the job just fine :)

I tried using soap for the first time but maybe I did it wrong cause when I was done my hair looked like it was so fucken flakey there was soap that looked like flakes and the soap was like light colored I guess you could say so you could see little chunks in my hair

Clint Casualty

Thx' mate, that helps a lot'

Me and my step-mom are getting into D.I.Y.

My step-mom slipped on water and broke her back in a hospital, and they refuse to give her a workers comp check

And since my dad works there she can't sue the hospital, Which is why I'm in need of cheap spending

Aug 27, 2008
Clint Casualty

lol it's ok, she broke her back 5 years ago..

She Recovered enough that she can walk' around the house and Drive me places.. I don't know if she'll ever fully recover though..
some days are better than others ya know'

But it's still fun to walk around the grocery store with a mohawk and be pushing your mom in a wheelchair.. and since I'm the only kid with a mohawk in my town that makes it even more baffling lol

Aug 27, 2008
Clint Casualty

I was interested in your dumpster diving thing too, I've been wanting to do it, and suprisingly my step-mom is interested in that too lol which is why she's awsome

Gotta look more into that

Juggalo MaggotFace

Whats up.
You seem like a cool person.

Oct 22, 2008
None of your business

No problem, you yourself seem to be a very intellectual person. I have been reading some of your comments and actually find myself analyzing them. You are the one of the first people who actually makes me think, which is good. Your comments are well versed and actually make a case rather than an arrogant unsupported statement. I get annoyed with “anarchists” who go around and just scream destroy the government. Then, you ask them a simple question about the principles of anarchism and they have absolutely no interpretation or depth of knowledge of what they are screaming about. It is frustrating.

Yeah I try not to get too wasted…things to do, thing to spray paint, people to convince about the evil of the government and People. I went to get gas tonight and I got called a “traitor” and a “domestic terrorist” and was then told the government should “put a black bag over my head”. Wow, and people think I’m nuts.

As for the education, yeah I got degrees in chemical engineering and chemistry. This frustrates many “punks” because they say that I am somehow running contrary to punk ideology because I got educated at a institution of higher learning. Yes granted the institution itself is exploitative, I feel it every time I spend that monthly pound of flesh to pay it off. However, I never attended the education institution with motives to exploit with my degrees. I know most people will use their degrees to exploit monetarily and some will turn in to fucking managers. But I have turn down $70,000 engineering jobs and currently work at a gas station. Voluntarily!! because I don’t want to exploit with my degrees.

I’m sorry, I just realized that I was talking about myself too much. Anyway, Tell me more about yourself. You seem like the most interesting person I have met in a while.

Keep well and keep fighting brother

Alright I'll be sure to add you. I come and go fairly often. I don't really stay in one place very long. And i can only get on when i find a place with a free Internet connection that i can hook my laptop up to. But I'll be sure to send you a message when i get the chance.

Josh

wow thanks for the post.... i ended up watching all three parts. its a real eye opener. i get mad that it took veterans being among the protestors for the police to keep their hands off the pepperspray. no one can excuse assaulting a veteran these days. we should all have that much respect for eachother.
