Also - what is wrong with Anne of Green Gables? Its charmingly Fascist - like D.H. Lawrence.
I just don't feel Canada in my heart anymore

I had a crush on Megan Follows tho

I used to hang out on her front porch in Forest Hill

she would bum cigarettes off me and we would smoke together

it was so fucking hot, Anne of Green Gables sexualized as a real woman in my presence, so close I could smell her

diverting conversations about art into state political paradigms is totalitarianism

this is what they do here in Canada, there can be no art which is not about the state

this has now spread to America, the censorship is about ensuring that no art is produced, just politics

paralysis by analysis
I admit it's not hockey, but I work with the tools I have :P
I have no beef with thread jacking

I'm simply illustrating how art works in Canada

everything has to be a political agenda

so for example, under the current regime, all art in Canada has to be Woke
Hell, I'm just having fun.

I'm at a severe disadvantage to guys like you and Marty that live in woke, future totalitarian hellscape. I live in the wild west where liberty still breaks out quite often. Hard for me to fully get what you guys endure.

I used political examples for my ease. I circle it back to art.


Experts for years said graffiti is vandalism and has no value in society. Today graffiti is increasingly viewed as art by experts. Which set of experts to I trust ?

I definitely have my country side, my redneck side, my trailer park boy side

I have lived in both the country and the city

maybe it's because I am a Gemini, but I just don't limit myself to any one paradigm

one moment I could be club fiend dancing to House, the next I could be line dancing to Country & Western

I dance to all sorts of tunes, so long as there are pretty girls to dance with

duality is a Jungian thing, urban cowboy, suburban redneck, trailer park gangster

I honestly just post my thoughts & feelings

it's really just between me & God

but I don't mind being judged, I like it, any artist wants feedback, so it's all good

at the end of the day tho, I gotta be me, can't please everybody

maybe it's just the age I grew up in, the late 70's, maan

you could groove to whatever, you could groove to Willie Nelson, you could groove to Disco too

Dolly Parton dancing at the disco, that was hot
