Natural High School


Vincent van Gogh never went to art school. Or at least he dropped out. I think. He also had no friends. Artistic friends that is. His brother, due to financial shortcomings and wrong expectations, kept him alive, and wasn't the cause for his death. Vincent van Gogh's right leg was shorter than his left, so he could only go for short walks. That's why he didn't get around much. He didn't live the middle class life he was born in. Perhaps he was an orphan. I believe he was a missionary or at least studied theology. He wanted God to witness his creation through his eyes. His eyes were extremely observant of course, though he said he couldn't see in all colors. I don't know what he meant by that. His life though ending tragic was one of the most celebrated after the fall of Nazism. No one had time to mourn his death, some just didn't take notice. I swear he's still alive somewhere. Maybe he's watching us from heaven, because that is where he wanted to go right? I guess, though it's hard to believe that anyone actually care about a dead person known for his fits of mania and shameful suicide. He was a drunk and a whore mongeror, a pathetic invalid, someone that wanted fame like any artist thinks they should.

The reason why we're discussing Vincent van Gogh today is because we want to become like him. We want masculanize art and feminize its reception. A tight bum, and a nice curve. Yes that's it. Stranger. Basically whatever you do someone else already has done. Studied, intercepted, created, emulated, you name it.

Are we human? What is a human? Vincent van Gogh only painted humans. He has never created one. Was he a human? As in, did he even consider any intellectual activities apart from his obsession with pictures? Is this where Freud comes in, and was perhaps inspired by? Psychology. The masochist that man has become. Man the animal is now stuck in a stereotype, where his modern outlook on life needs to be abided by, as long as it is not equally in sight destructive, heart wrenching, and abusive, and exploitative. The most famous brands hates all. Only money they serve. Neo-liberalism has caused this angst. Vincent van Gogh couldn't handle the modern world encroaching upon his creations. He hated so-called progress for profit. He hated that men had to suffer, and that Gods were treated like Angels. He hated that man became under the impression that they're godlike. He despised progress in the name of militarism. The real world. Not some rich entrepreneurs wet-dream, but rather what Stalin and Lenin proposed. A world at war.

The Third World Warehouse (Draft 4)

The following ideas are views expressed by the author as possibilities, and not circumstances actually in existence. This is merely a theory of a possible outcome, or a row of outcomes brought forth by the misuse, abuse, and possibly moral use of Capitalism, in our modern-day world, still desperately clutching onto the views expressed by Jefferson, Locke, Lincoln, Franklin, Washington, Rosseau, and Payne, to avoid losing power and control of this sophisticated mountain or tower of a Republic. The list can go on of the authors of this Democracy, but unfortunately though, it seems their call for moderation and conservatism is thrown out by the world of today towards the use of State funds for personal political gains, and the selfish Demigod maintained by the general populace who strive for liberation through luxury and expenditure - the accumulation of things or items to satiate the empty chasm found in every heart of a Capitalist that owns nothing internally but want to rule the extern...

Addiction (draft 0.1)

One cannot always get what one wants. Or needs, for that matter. Though surely your choice may not actually be an important, or crucial, one after all. Meaning, is it of consequence to qualify and classify reality? To expect something in return, even though it may not be immediately relevant to you. Does the step towards mentally conceiving the universe, and the study of it, bring about the sense of orbit which one can attain by speaking words of wisdom? Travelling the globe to teach and to learn. Miracles we are expected to believe in, at the cost of heresy. One big conglomerate church taking people’s money at the cost of validity of said request, and the relevance in turn, as to what to expect in return, if any such matter can be found needed by the ones in charge, or the ones believed to be. So the question begs; where do miracles come from? Ignorance? Arrogance? Enforcement of said event as truth per policy dictated. By hierarchy created and manipulated sincerely, morally, and even...

The consumptive slave (work in progress)

In materialistic societies you better treat your workforce like consumers, or they will make demands as consumers unto you, which is ingrained into their psyche through the notion that the accumulation of wealth, and its use, equals to rights, and respect to be granted.   In South Africa, from what I can see, the menial worker doesn’t realize its predicament through the assumption that its work is not menial. All that it takes is having the workforce performing menial duties, which is not solely their own choice, be constantly harassed away from what they are, and not what they have become. A means to cut taxes, and uplift communities into damnation, for removing man away from his dream, makes him forget it exists, and how others could have helped him onto the way to the light in the sky.   The dilemma that comes into play is the subordinative qualities already assumed by the governments onto its subjects. Nowhere does it say that the people rule the party, for the par...
