Apathy

Hello once again, it is I, the one and only Quiet Mouse.
Today I am admittedly pissed off. If you were expecting a happy go lucky kind of blog, well, it's not gonna be here today.
No need to beat around the bush, so lets just do this thing like I always do.
Apathy (also called impassivity or perfunctoriness) is a state of indifference, or the suppression of emotions such as concern,excitement, motivation and passion. An apathetic individual has an absence of interest in or concern about emotional, social, or physical life. He or she may exhibit an insensibility or sluggishness, also. Often, apathy has been felt after witnessing horrific acts, such as the killing or maiming of people during a war. It is also known to be associated with many conditions including depression.
"The opposite of love is not hate, it is apathy."


I think it is the general state of Americans to be apathetic. There is a basic state of depression going on in the United States and in other places throughout the world right now. EVERYONE knows or at least senses the problems as global economies collapse, housing markets and trade markets crumble under the weight of massive amounts of derivative debts that are so insurmountable that our grandchildren and their children will be still paying those debts for many many years to come. 
I was on Facebook earlier today and I was reading a blog thread from one of my fellow Americans that was basically saying that we should "level the Middle East, steal their oil, and turn the whole thing into a parking lot." As with many times during and after my military service in the US Navy, I felt ashamed to be an American today. Are we really that detached from reality that we can cast judgement on our fellow HUMAN beings in such an apathetic way? The global elite WANT for humans to fight amongst one another the way we have been for so long. While WE are busy fighting senseless wars based on trivial issues like skin color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, social habits (such as cannabis use), ethnicity, etc... THEY are busy monopolizing like this planet is a damn game from Parker Bros. 
Americans are busy sounding like Nazi Germans during the persecution and murder of the Jews. AS IF somehow it is okay to kill brown people or anyone else. You want to make the Middle Easterners YOUR scapegoat of persecution, that is your personal agenda. But to lie to yourself or anyone else and try to act like stealing away someones home, their land, and their future is okay? Well, that's just the American way, huh? We did it to the Natives. We stole their lands, killed and raped their women, and drove them all the way from the East coastal areas to Oklahoma on the "trail of tears"?? Nope, we didn't learn our lessons then either so we just went over to Africa and did the same thing to the BLACK people... All in the name of "progress" and "growth". Kinda sounds to me like what is going on NOW in this nation, except this time we are doing it to one another, in particular the Hispanic population that is working in sweatshop like conditions so large corporations can continue to make RECORD PROFITS! We did the same thing back in the days of the height of immigration to the Irish who were forced into indentured servitude (a.k.a. slavery). Are you getting a sense of this pattern that we just KEEP going through??
Americans are just peachy keen with the whole idea of exploiting one group or another as long as we can have our Starbucks lattes, cell phones, Internet, and overpriced shopping malls. Basically as long as NOTHING interrupts the status quo, Americans can just keep going on living an ignorant life. Anyone who tells me that "ignorance is bliss" obviously has NEVER BEEN EXPLOITED. The exploitation of the masses for the gains of a privileged few IS "the American dream"... any other way of trying to spin this is just yet ANOTHER DELUSION concocted by the egocentric and anti-human elite to keep Americans buying into the illusion that maybe, just maybe one day you too can be like them... WRONG! They won't let that happen because it is THEIR little elite club. 
Let me give you a good example of my point I just mentioned above. Think about the lottery... ever hear of anyone who has made their own life better who has won? Ever hear about how much good they did for the community? For charity? For starving humans over in Africa or Asia or even here for the millions of starving Americans?
Not likely... Newly made millionaires from lottery winnings are almost guaranteed to go right back to being broke sons of bitches within 5 to 10 years of winning the lottery. Why is this? Because they think they just got an open checkbook to spend spend spend all they want to their hearts desires. Money DOES NOT and WILL NOT EVER buy you happiness. Happiness comes from within and the easiest way to find happiness is to HELP SOMEONE ELSE. Lottery winners are generally only concerned with their own selfishness and ego. Having a brand new house full of junk does NOT happiness make. Many lottery winners are burdened with higher taxes, depression, and MORE bill collectors than the average Joe. Lottery money is highly believed to be CURSED as it is indeed BLOOD MONEY. For every million dollars that a person wins in the lottery there is a million LOSERS (minus 1 perhaps)!!! Yeah, I said it!
Want to know about the American dream? Millions of people throwing away their money and savings because their pensions, homes, and dreams were bought, sold, or flat out STOLEN from underneath their feet. They can HOPE and PRAY for those 5 or 6 "lucky" numbers, but you just WON'T win. Hell MANY of the winners DIE before they can even spend it all. Talk about a curse...


Back to the overall topic, which ISN'T the lottery.
Apathy rears its ugly head in EVERY facet of American life. The way we treat one another. The way we treat our planet. The way we litter, deforest, strip mine, and every other way we have exploited, raped, plundered, and pillaged this land we call home. We even take it one step further as we try to separate ourselves from the horrific and tragic events that we have initiated upon our fellow human beings. As if the war across the sea is just so far away that we can pretend it is happening to someone else besides the American soldiers that are coming home with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, addicted to pain killers and other drugs to ease their distraught minds from the pain and suffering they have not only witnessed, but aided and abetted in the cause and implementation of.
What is worse is that when you TRAIN a person to be a KILLER, that never goes away. The person may come home to friends and family, but they are NEVER the same person you once knew. Where once there was a patriotic, loving citizen, now we have a whole group of wife beaters, abusers, murderers, and degenerates. Gang association within the military is continually on the rise as well, as standards are dropped to let even the least qualified person into the service... as long as THEY can train YOU to kill kill kill...


Americans need to wake up from this false reality and see that WE, as a nation, ARE THE AGGRESSORS! WE ARE THE TERRORISTS in the eyes of the world! In Libya... WE put Gaddafi in power. In Iraq... WE put Hussein in power. In Afghanistan... WE gave Bin Laden his power...


It pains me to hear my fellow Americans as they condone violence across the globe. WHY?? Is it NOT PAINFUL ENOUGH to lose a family member or loved one from natural causes, let alone a WAR based upon lies, misinformation, and a profit driven petrochemical funded war machine??
The nation of ISLAM is NOT the enemy!! The enemy is the person that seeks to divide and conquer ALL of humanity! The ENEMY is the person who wants you and I to live in a perpetual state of fear and hatred of our fellow brothers and sisters... We are ALL children of the SAME God for crying out loud!! 


All that is needed for the forces of evil to triumph is for enough good men to do nothing. 


This has been the Quiet Mouse. I think there are a lot of good people still left in this nation. I think that there are enough good people to CHANGE the wrongs that have been done. There IS still time. What are YOU gonna do about it. If you call yourself a Christian as so many people in this nation do... then YOU should know better than anyone the lessons of Christ and his atonement for SIN, lest you keep on repeating the same mistakes of the past again and again.
Peace. Love. Respect. Truth. 

Recycling For Life and Sustainability

Hello my friends, family, and fellow humanists, welcome back to another edition of The Quiet Mouse Strikes Back!! I am your blog host Quiet Mouse and today I want to talk about recycling.
First lets define and describe what exactly it IS and what it MEANS to recycle.

Recycling is processing used materials (waste) into new products to prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air pollution (from incineration) and water pollution (from landfilling) by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal, and lower greenhouse gas emissions as compared to virgin production.^[1][2] Recycling is a key component of modern waste reduction and is the third component of the "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle" waste hierarchy.

Recyclable materials include many kinds of glass, paper, metal, plastic, textiles, and electronics. Although similar in effect, the composting or other reuse of biodegradable waste – such as food or garden waste – is not typically considered recycling.^[2] Materials to be recycled are either brought to a collection center or picked up from the curbside, then sorted, cleaned, and reprocessed into new materials bound for manufacturing.

Here is where I see a lot of the problem for recycling... not ENOUGH people a) have access to recycle in their communities b) not enough people KNOW what items are capable of being recycled c) Not enough businesses and corporations are leading the way with recycling programs

Now I am going to talk about each one of these points that I have brought up mentioned above.

A) Communities are NOT getting enough involvement in the recycling process. There ARE many residential neighborhoods that offer programs to come and get your cans and bottles, paper, etc... BUT... that is NOT good ENOUGH! This is especially true for those who live in the more URBAN settings of large cities where MORE people live in apartments. Apartment dwellers do NOT have the SAME access to the benefits of recycling as their peers who live in houses. This NEEDS to change immediately my friends!! There IS a way to save the time for humanity on this planet, but it requires ALL OF US working TOGETHER for a common goal: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!!

B) Not enough people KNOW what items are capable of being recycled. Not only is there a lack of knowledge being dissiminated to the public population about the growing need and concern for the environment, but rather people are generally encouraged NOT TO CARE. This is tragic and is turning this beautiful planet into a cesspool of filth and waste. As I wrote in my last blog about littering, this is UNACCEPTABLE and needs to be STOPPED IMMEDIATELY!! People have the RIGHT to be educated and this needs to start in our schools NOW! We need to teach our children as well as adults how to take care of the planet and live in accordance with the laws of NATURE. People need to KNOW what, how, and where to go to recycle their wasted products and materials.

C) Not enough businesses and corporations are leading the way with recycling programs. Period. I don't know about any of MY readers here, but I personally would be more likely to spend MY money at an institution that openly practiced recycling and composting of food waste. Burgerville, for example up here in the Northern Oregon and Washington state area has 3 separate bins in their restaurants: 1 for regular plastic and trash, 1 for compostable food waste, and another for recyclable materials such as paper from the cups, tray liners, etc. If, for example, McDonald's (despite their shitty food quality) were to employ a comprehensive change in policy to INCLUDE recycling ALONE in ALL of their restaurants, just THINK of the IMMEDIATE IMPACT that could have on the global output of trash. Same goes with Subway, BK, Chipotle, Jack in the Box and any number of other fast food companies. One could go even further with that and suggest that if other non-food retailers employed the SAME strategy of how much paper, plastic, aluminum and other recyclable materials could be saved in the United States ALONE, not to mention if we could actually make this a GLOBAL initiative. 

Okay, I can hear the whispering now...

"But QM, how can we get these companies to CHANGE the way they do business?"

Good question. I will tell you. EVERY store, no matter how big or how small has a manager and an owner. If you WANT and I mean TRULY WANT for things to CHANGE... then I would suggest starting TODAY to actually use your big boy and big girl WORDS and TALK to the people in charge. Customer feedback is CRUCIAL to ANY business strategy and if ENOUGH people complain, boycott, and/or DEMAND the change... well, these companies WILL change, but ONLY if they are pressured BY THE CONSUMER TO DO SO! Even Wal-Mart in all their MIGHT and POWER is forced to BEND to the will of the consumer. Enough people DEMANDED organic food choices and guess what they got? They got what they asked for. The same CAN and NEEDS to happen with recycling. I mean geez... think about if Wal-Mart and Target and other large "Big Box Mart" type stores ALL started recycling all that cardboard, paper, and plastic... WOWZERS!! What a change that would be nearly overnight. 

I CANNOT stress the importance of recycling enough folks. I too was once a wasteful person and have been shown the error of my former ways. My kids mom showed me the powerful effects of recycling and now I am a believer. EVERYTHING seems foreign at first when we are not used to it. It is like learning a new language or a new routine. At first it may indeed be difficult, but with a little practice WE ALL CAN DO IT!! YES WE CAN!!

The MOST important part of this initiative is that we DON'T NEED the government's approval or monetary help. WE  CAN DO THIS OURSELVES!! Another thing is that RECYCLING can be a lucrative business these days. MANY states offer CASH money for recycling of cans and bottles known as a CRV. It's that extra 5 cents that is added to the cost of the sodas and whatnot you purchase. Hey, I know it's just 5 cents, but 20 bottles or cans equals a dollar. A dollar might not go as far today as it has in the days of our youth, but that's STILL a dollar MORE than you previously had before and guess what?? You just saved that from becoming trash at the landfill that is poisoning our underground water supply and killing numerous amounts of animals, wildlife, and nature. 

So I am asking you today to STAND UP for MOTHER NATURE. STAND UP for RECYCLING and SUSTAINABILITY. This is NOT just the job of yet another corporation intent on PROFIT MARGINS, no no no... THIS IS EVERYONE'S RESPONSIBILITY. Do what you have to do in a non-violent way to get this much needed change across!! Picket, boycott, TALK about it with those in charge. I think that with enough support and enough people talking about it, as I said, the change could be so sudden and almost overnight things CAN get better. Let's ALL start NOW!!!!

This has been the Quiet Mouse.

Peace. Love. Respect. Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.

Littering is for BUTT-HEADS!!

DING DING DING DING DING!!! That is the correct answer player 1...

Okay, so seriously, life in this country is NOT a game show and I am NOT the host. My over-all point is that my biggest pet peeve is smokers that throw away their cigarette butts and use the once-beautiful Earth as their own personal ash tray. These people are BUTT HEADS and should be arrested and heavily fined... oh yeah that's if the cops weren't too busy busting up peaceful taxpaying cannabis users. I adamantly HATE people that chose to be lazy and throw their garbage on the ground rather than taking the few moments to place their refuse in the appropriate container, and that INCLUDES the recycling bin!! There is NO mystery person that is paid to clean up YOUR mess. Yo momma don't work here, so you have to clean up your OWN MESS!! Got it???
Hmm.... I can hear the rumbling, so let's clarify what is LITTERING
If you accidentally drop a few french fries or an apple core on the ground, that is one thing because the birds or ants will get most of it and feed on it. If you are just lazy and throw your trash in the back of the pick-up truck for it to blow out onto the streets, THAT is littering. If you leave your soda bottles, cigarette butts, plastic bags, stinking ass dirty used up diapers (nasty ass motherfuckers!!), or your furniture on the side of the street, then YOU are FUCKING UP MY PLANET ASSHOLE!!!
WHERE THE FUCK DO YOU INCONSIDERATE PANTY WASTE MOTHERFUCKERS THINK WE ARE GONNA LIVE WHEN THE WORLD IS ONE BIG LANDFILL and TOXIC CESSPOOL???

YES, I AM ANGRY!! I am sooooooooooooooo sick and tired of walking or driving down the street and seeing our streets and city parks looking like ass. ONE of the BIGGEST reasons that this country is going to SHIT is because the citizens of this once great nation don't FUCKING CARE! Americans are too damned wasteful of EVERYTHING! What happened to the PRIDE of keeping nature beautiful? What happened to people wanting SAFE drinkable water and forests, towns, cities, countrysides, etc. to be magnificent as HE above created them. We do NOT have to live like LOCUSTS or PARASITES destroying ALL we come into contact with. We have the ability to DESTROY, yes... BUT... we ALSO have the ability to CREATE! My sincere hope is that SOMEONE in this country or the world will be able to look PAST the greed created by this VIRUS KNOWN AS CAPITALISM and actually use his/her given talents to USE what is ALREADY here, recycling and re-using past creations to make something BETTER and more SUSTAINABLE for ALL mankind, WITHOUT PROFIT being the ONLY motivation. This has been the Quiet Mouse once again. WAKE UP from the Matrix and snap out of your wasteful, meaningless, consumer-driven lives!!
Peace. Love. Respect. Recycle. Re-use. Reflect. THINK! Move forward.

Masturbation

Hello once again, this is the Quiet Mouse coming at ya to bring ideas and information to the masses.

Let's jump right in and define what Masturbation is according to Merriam-Webster dictionary:

Definition of MASTURBATION

: erotic stimulation especially of one's own genital organs commonly resulting in orgasm and achieved by manual or other bodily contact exclusive of sexual intercourse, by instrumental manipulation, occasionally by sexual fantasies, or by various combinations of these agencies

Well, that doesn't sound like too much fun the way that a dictionary describes it. Since MY blogs are about MY opinions, I want to say a few things to clear the air.

Despite what religion, parents, or governmental institutions say about the act of self-love... It is INDEED healthy to please yourself, AND like a lot of other human behaviors it is best in moderate amounts. Just like eating too much, you will become fat. If you masturbate too much, you will run the risk of being the "little engine that just couldn't get and/or keep it UP".

Another myth is that masturbation is a strictly exclusive event... this is just NOT the case. I know that many  men are insecure about the frail size of their penises, so let's just set down a general guideline for the use of masturbation assisted toys, dildos, vibrators, or B.O.B.'s (Battery Operated Boyfriends). Because there are varying sizes of sexual toys it is recommended to actually TELL your lover, or sexual partner what your desires are. It is NOT always necessary nor is there always time for the outright mattress mambo, horizontal tango, etc. Sometimes it IS okay to get your self or girlfriend or boyfriend off in a hurry. 

Sorry fellas, but it is generally true that it is easier to get a woman off than for a man. Some dudes just can't hold their load and are "minutemen"... for those guys, I recommend masturbating enough to "clean the pipes", but no more. Exercise in general will increase your stamina as different muscles in and around the genital area play crucial roles in the ejaculatory process. I recommend YOGA and meditation personally. Read up on Tantric meditation too. This should help with some of you dudes from having a premature evacuation of your little Vinnies and Debbies. 

Similarly to the "Suck His Dick" blog that I posted a short while back, I recommend manscaping the balls and shaft, fellas. If your partner doesn't enjoy watching you masturbate mutually and you do NOT tell her (or him) what you like... your partner might be gay, not that there is anything wrong with that. My cat Fuzzy is gay and I love him still, so...

Another point to consider is this: For all those IN a relationship, please listen up. Just because you are in a relationship does NOT mean you have to stop masturbating!! Ladies, and sometimes dudes... MANY MANY people get headaches or are tired and don't feel like a full blown hour or two of intense intercourse. This is FINE! Don't be shy to finger your girlfriend while she rubs her clit for a couple of minutes until she gets hers and you can BOTH enjoy a good nights worth of sleep. Same goes on the flip side of the coin. Ladies, if you are tired and just want to sleep, do NOT feel ashamed to give your man the gift of porn to help him ease the tension. I realize too that the best tension relief is to soak in a bath of "Dickens Cider", but... that isn't always a feasible option. 

If you ARE in a relationship and you ARE going to masturbate, please, please, please save yourself an argument later and just ASK your partner if they want to join in and assist. If they say NO... you are off the hook and are free to empty those clogged pipes. This is true in most cases, however, masturbation is NOT a substitute for SEX, only a supplement to an otherwise normal, healthy sex life.

Once again... if you are endlessly masturbating, perhaps it is time to re-think the relationship strategy. Supplement, NOT replacement is the key idea here. 

Fellas, do NOT be intimidated by the B.O.B., he is your FRIEND, NOT YOUR ENEMY!! It is often erotic to go with your partner to the exotic gift shop or adult store and AID in helping her pick out a toy that will be best suited for your cooperative sex life. It takes two to tango peeps. Also, if you want her to wear sexy lingerie, thongs, etc... it would be helpful if you went shopping WITH her. Do NOT, I repeat do NOT buy sex toys FOR HER, without her being there!!

Well, I think that is about all for the Quiet Mouse today. Be good to your loved ones and share in the love of mutual masturbation once in a while... JACKING OFF ALONE SUCKS!!

Peace. Love. Respect. Trust. Honesty.

Tattoos

Hello and welcome back to the Quiet Mouse Strikes Back, I am your host for this blog: THE Quiet Mouse :)

Today I want to discuss tattooing. The practice of inking the skin with artificial dyes has been going on since 4 to 5 thousand years B.C.E. so this is nothing new to the human experience. The modern Christian churches would have you believe that your body is a temple and thus should NOT be marked upon. I however beg to differ. I spent time going and worshiping in the L.D.S. church and they held the same negative view of tattooing as well.
For all the haters out there who don't understand, let me put it to you like this...
If your body is a temple, why should you NOT decorate it? I have been in Mormon temples and churches of many various denominations, Christian and otherwise. Nearly ALL temples and churches I have EVER been in have paintings up on the wall, statues for all to see and/or intricately woven tapestries. If MY body is a temple, then I should indeed take the visual cue that it is indeed OKAY to decorate MY TEMPLE, YES!!

If it is NOT okay for THEM to decorate their temples, as they have advised US not to decorate OURS... then THEY need to have an auction of all their ornate decorations, paintings, tapestries, and ritualistic ornamentation's and do some good with that money by actually helping people instead of confusing them.

On the flip side of the coin, I must admit that there are those, like anything else, that take the practice too far. I think there is a tasteful level of modesty that aught to be understood. I would agree with the Christian ideal of NOT having disturbing images of satanic origin, demonic, or flat out lasciviously lewd content tattooed on your body. I also think that it is unnecessary to have tattoos covering your face making it impossible for the adorned person to find a job.
Right now I have 12 tattoos and plan on getting a few more. My tattoos all have meaning though. Some people just get retarded shit inked on their skin on a humbug, or often because they are dumb enough to go get one DRUNK or otherwise inebriated. This I would highly advise AGAINST.
Tattoos hurt, let's not kid ourselves here. There is a certain level of pain tolerance one must have to even attempt the process of receiving a tattoo. The time it takes to receive this tattoo ultimately depends on the method used and how large and detailed the transferred image will be.

So lets recap... Tattoos are NOT evil in and of themselves, it is only the nature of the IMAGE you want that may be good or bad. Tattoos of devils and demonic stuff are only evil if you intend them to mean something of an evil nature. Tattoos DO HURT; often A LOT!! You must be prepared to take care of it for a while afterwards. I recommend A&D Ointment personally. Be tasteful with your tattoo. Do NOT drink alcohol before being tattooed because it will thin your blood and cause you to bleed more. Have your tattoo actually MEAN something!! TO YOU!!
Do NOT, I repeat DO NOT get your boyfriend or girlfriends name tattooed on you!! If you want to get your kids names: FINE!! No one wants to be a "Wyno forever" like Johnny Depp after he broke up with Wynona!


Ladies and gentlemen, this has been the Quiet Mouse. Peace be with you. Get inked up tastefully.
Love. Respect. Harmony.
