Is 7:40 available? Also I keep getting an error whenever I try to actually burn the dvd through IDVD. I could definetely show up early to the computer lab if its available or alternatively I could bring the files using my mp3 player and usb cord as a vessel.

19 is going extremely well so far!
An excerpt
“We contend that property destruction is not a violent activity unless it destroys lives or causes pain in the process. By this definition, private property—especially corporate private property—is itself infinitely more violent than any action taken against it. Private property should be distinguished from personal property. The latter is based upon use while the former is based...
Black Bloc Anarchist N30 Communique
I’ve been in the process of creating two research papers on the topic of anarchism. One contemporary episode that definetely stands out is the November 30th, 1999 WTO conference in Seattle. It was in that time and place that thousands protested against the World Trade Organization’s conference and succeeded in delaying it. However, things took a very hostile turn when a section of...

Against Me! - Baby, I'm An Anarchist lyrics
Circa 2003 Against Me! was the hope of the DIY anarcho-folk punk scene. They were some of the best the scene had to offer, and they created especially powerful music. They wrote this song in this early era of their career when they defined themselves and the lives they lived by these anarchist ideals. The folk-punk scene is a scene revolving around the genuine interaction of people gathering to...

Amiri Baraka on Wikipedia →
A very interesting personality. He writes poetry and plays with admirable passion and intelligence. Yet at the same time that he is very scathingly moralising, he sometimes comes off as a black supremacist. He seems to firmly believe in the conspiracy of the white devil who hates the black man by nature and to this day seeks to exploit the black race and keep them down.

Adbusters
A good example of a zine - Adbusters is a strongly leftist magazine that has origins as a graphic design and art magazine. The designing and photography of their publication can often times be unusually good for a relatively small independent zine. The magazine now focuses on geopolitics- focusing on issues of corporations, the excesses of capitalism, information overload of the 20th century...

I really enjoyed the preview song “Couleurs.” If this new release is anything like their previous work, I’m highly anticipating it!
A handy song lyrics site →
I found this site a while back and I think being able to read the comments that people have for certain songs can be interesting to observe- whether vapid or insightful.
Radiohead - Fog
There’s a little child Running round this house And he never leaves He will never leave And the fog comes up from the sewers And glows in the dark Baby alligators in the sewers grow up fast Grow up fast Anything you want it can be done How did you go bad? Did you go bad? Did you go bad? Somethings will never wash away Did you go bad? Did you go bad?

Yesterday was a bad and a strange day. I spent most of the day trying to haphazardly realize a concept for an art assignment with mediocre results only to learn at the end of the day that the assignment in question wasn’t even technically due! I then spent the rest of the class session feeling foolish and just generally being angry at the world. I slowly became more and more depressed...

a (cliche) love poem inspired by a dream of mine
Last night I dreamt I was with you and all our loved ones were near; only love was to be found. Last night I dreamt I was with you and I saw your beautiful smile; I’ve never felt safer. Last night I dreamt we were together and our hands were clasped; it felt so right. This morning I awoke to find myself alone and yet again without you by my side; I’ve never been more let-down by...
