MINDLESS MUSINGS

Introduction

I’m sure you are aware of this thing called ‘The System’. The term gets lobbed around often enough. Whatever you reckon it is, there’s no doubt we are all stuck in it, and apart from becoming a hermit or a corpse, there seems to be no escape. So, what the fuck is IT? And while we’re on the subject who is “The Man”? Those shadowy characters who seem to be running the show.

Well, that’s the purpose of this exercise. Laying down 50 odd years’ worth of “what the fuck is going on?” and hoping to find at least a tiny thread linking things. Just a shred of causation, purpose, reason. Not the pre-packaged stuff we are fed. If not a glimpse behind the curtain, I will settle for just seeing the curtain. Piece of cake!

I totally understand that this is a fool’s errand, but I am really looking forward to the quest.

What is this game? There certainly appears to be winners and losers. Is it all just a lottery based on the womb you happen to emerge from? Is it rigged? Is it an illusion? Is it even worth playing? And if not is there any alternative?

Do ‘the powers that be’ even exist? I mean as a coherent organisation. Or is this all the result of random wannabe despots?

Is anybody actually driving this fucken train???

Whether it is a brilliantly orchestrated conspiracy or simply the inevitable result of such an overblown society, we’re all immersed in it and escape seems impossible barring the terminal one.

Enough intro – let’s go!
