I kind of hope I'm never in a state of mind where I am ready for something that awful.

I read this while taking a break from writing something about, well, what in comparison seems pretty god damned inconsequential.

I thought I had seen some of the most awful displays of "humanity" imaginable.
All I can think to myself now is:
"Fuck what you know about terrible."

Even the word terrible doesn't begin to...I don't know man. Fuck.
The world is a car and you're the crash test dummy.

Fuck. Just fuck. It'll take me a while to compose myself after reading that, I think.
Fuck. I'm really sorry, man. You spend some time on the internet, talk some shit, think you can handle anything, but...
Fuck.
I think the worst part is that it didn't really affect me at first.

Just vomit your emotions into the keyboard. It doesn't have to be coherent.

When I do that, it tries to be funny. I'm guessing that would be bad right now.

Yes, it probably would.

Try as I might I'm having a hard time coming up with a mirth-part to go with this horror. Gimme time, I'm sure it'll come. The most shocking part about it for me is that it doesn't shock me in the slightest. Disgusts but not shocks. Still glad I wasn't there at the time, tho, I'm sure seeing that kinda shit in the flesh would leave a lasting impression.

Sadly, I'm in the same position.  I'm more shocked for Roger's sake that he went through it, than that it actually happened.  War lives with me in my home too much with the company I've kept the past twenty or so years.  So the stories I've heard about Afghanistan and the Russians, and now the Talibs and the Afghans, and then the things people do to their children that are found in county hospitals and clinics...this just fits right in.

All too well.

Sadly.

I think I shall vomit and spend the rest of the day rocking back and forth in my bed. Goodnight.

I just joined the club. :x


Roger, I wasn't ready for that.

Anyone who is ready for that needs to have their head examined.  This is why, when my children asked me if there were really any monsters, I told them "Yeah there are, but they look just like you and me."

Also, Africa.  It turns out that if you make an 11 year old a soldier, you can make them into complete sociopaths for life in just a few weeks.  That's why they are used.  They can be made completely merciless.

Most of The Machine™ runs on children.  Hell, 99% of the people reading this are wearing something made by child slave labor in Malaysia.

I watched that movie, Blood Diamond, by myself in the movie theater when it came out.  It illustrated that point about child soldiers REALLY well.  Almost too well.  Fuck me that was a harsh movie to watch.
