A clever little game for a bright and shiny Wednesday:

Or, a silly little meme I found over at zianuray's place.

Ask me seven questions. Not just any seven questions though. No, to keep it interesting, use the seven questions as per below - just copy and paste the following, replace the blanks with something you want to know/ask (e.g. 3. Donkeys or sandcastles and why?), anything you want, personal, silly, surreal or deep, comment away and I'll answer honestly.

1. What do you think of _____________ ?

2. When did you last ____________?

3. __________ or ___________ and why?

4. What did you ______________?

5. What's your favorite ______________?

6. How would you ______________?

1. It is entirely too focused on image and entertainment, at the expense of thoughtful consideration of problems to be addressed. That's my sound-bite answer. :) We also lack a serious left wing - the Dems are more-or-less centrist, and the Reps are moving righter every day, so we're a little out of balance. The heavy involvement of dominionist players and ideas in the political system isn't doing us any favors either, and nobody seems to notice or care. In short, it's pretty fucking grim, in my humble opinion.

2. Um... I don't know. It's been a really long time, but not so long that all the paint is totally gone, I still have half of the paint on my left big toe left. Might have been last August.

3. Chicken. Turkey tastes like water to me. Not that chicken tastes much better, I suppose.

4. Nothing yet. I'm still plotting it.

5. I don't think I have one favorite. And, I read different LJs for different reasons. Most people I read purely to keep in touch with, so it really doesn't matter what they write, I'm going to keep reading them. Some folks I read for other reasons. gamera_spinning has the best entertainment news. jackbabalon23 is probably most inspiring (in all sorts of ways). ursulav is probably the funniest. catvincent (who is on IJ now) is the most likely to make me go "WTF?!?!". And so on...

6. By demonstrating that you have choices. By generally being decent to people. By trying to bring people into their own power. By refusing to let people say dumb hateful shit around me. By ignoring the rules that perpetuate dumb hateful shit. By facilitating space for people to sort their own stuff out. By educating wherever I can. By sharing. By working. By thinking. By deciding every fucking day to do whatever I can to improve the place by my passing. I hope I'm doing a good job.

7. I don't usually get all that excited about concerts, but I would certainly like to see Tool again. They put on a hell of a show.
