I really, really, really like this blog. Although some of the sayings are a little depressing, it provides a real insight into the voice of a younger demographic of people. The author is a young adult female and she is from Pittsberg.

lyrics excerpt

Your whole gang will be diminished, Bunch got the Bradys in it. Spit sick shit like my saliva got the rabies in it. Fuck rap, Ill be a landlord so I can rape a tenants daughter. Leave my house with a new stomach, and a baby in it.

... Umm, whats that? The cock of a black dude, mad cause his daughter got the swag of a vacuum (aww, fuck it). Ill take her to the back room, dungeon, fighting and punching. And now the slut is under the fucking assumption, that I will be fucking and munching her muffin. Cum will be bleeding, but thats not from the time signature of the month, umm. (Its because) Im Dracula bitch. Dont got a problem smacking a bitch. Kidnapping, attacking, with axes and shit,til I grab them throats and start smacking them shits.
relation to hedonism

Some of the music that tyler produces explores are suppressed human emotions. These are personal feelings that comes from his personal life and/or animalistic natures of people. Tyler himself, or from what Ive seen through interviews; is generally a positive and playful person. But when it comes to his music, he explores some temptations and thoughts that people usually suppress. One aspect of his personal life in which he explores is his father. His father was not there for him and had left him and his mother at an early age. This explores the importance of parental figures and the impact this has on children. Tylers song Inglorious from the album Goblin says: My father died the day I came out of my mothers hole. And left a burden on my soul until I was old enough to understand, that the fucking faggot didnt like me much. He loved my moms enough to bust a nut and then he shake Junt. Another characteristic that Tyler explores is the animalistic nature of human beings. Humans, in relation to animals, are here to reproduce and survive. To supress our sexual desires, murderous intentions, and temptations is one way that society has molded people to live peacefully and respectfully. When it comes to Tylers music, he doesnt suppress any thoughts. Women are viewed as sexual objects and rape and murder comes instinctively. Tyler is a great example of hedonism because both share the viewpoint that pleasure is the only intrinsic good. Also, he can be related to Epicurus, who was an atomic materialist. Epicurus materialism has led him to a general stance against superstition and divine intervention. In relation to Epicurus, Tyler is an Atheist and has included many insults against religion in his music.
side note

The man on the cover of Goblin is Buffalo Bill. A description from Wikipedia states this as his philosophy: As a frontier scout, he respected Native Americans and supported their rights. He employed many more natives than Sitting Bull, as he thought his show offered them good pay for a better life. He called them the former foe, present friend, the American, and once said, Every Indian outbreak that I have ever known has resulted from broken promises and broken treaties by the government. Buffalo Bill also supported the rights of women. He said, What we want to do is give women even more liberty than they have. Let them do any kind of work they see fit, and if they do it as well as men, give them the same pay.

dance with the devil (feat. diabolic) sample henry mancini lyrics excerpt

love story

Right before he pulled the trigger, and ended her life, he thought about the cocaine with the platinum and ice, and he felt strong standing along with his new brothers. Cocked the gat to her head, and pulled back the shirt cover, but what he saw made him start to cringe and stutter, cause he was starring into the eyes of his own mother. She looked back at him and cried, cause he had forsaken her. She cried more painfully, than when they were raping her. His whole world stopped, he couldnt even contemplate, his corruption had successfully changed his fate. And he remembered how his mom used to come home late, working hard for nothing, cause now what was he worth. He turned away from the woman that had once given him birth, and crying out to the sky cause he was lonely and scared. But only the devil responded, cause god wasnt there. And right then he knew what it was to be empty and cold, and so he jumped off the roof and died with no soul. They say death takes you to a better place but I doubt it, after that they killed his mother, and never spoke about it. And listen cause the story that Im telling is true, cause I was there with Billy Jacobs and I raped his mom too. And now the devil follows me everywhere that I go. In fact Im sure hes standing among one of you at my shows. And every street cypher listening to little thugs flow, he could be standing right next to you, and you wouldnt know. The devil grows inside the hearts of the selfish and wicked. White, brown, yellow and black colored is not restricted. You have a self destructive destiny when your inflicted, and youll be one of gods children and fell from the top. Theres no diversity because were burning in the melting pot, so when the devil wants to dance with you, you better say never ... because the dance with the devil might last you forever
analysis

composer henry mancini

A coworker of mine had once brought up an interesting point about poverty. Her belief was that poverty can be viewed as a state of mind, as some people in poverty stricken areas has a limited point of view on life. Rather than saving up and striving for a better quality of life, some people would spend money on materialistic things and constantly stay at the same level. They are always surrounded by struggle, despair, and violence and in turn, that lifestyle becomes their playground. In some aspects, I have to agree with this. Violence and credibility is often sought after in some less fortunate areas and this could lead some people astray. In relation to this song, Billy Jacobs glorified a violent lifestyle. Whether it was the community around him that influenced his thoughts or the lack of aspiration towards a better life, he was constantly at the same level as his peers. This lead Billy to behave violently and the outcome of his actions eventually lead to his suicide.
side note

From Wikipedia: Most of his lyrics focus on controversial issues in global politics. The views expressed in his lyrics are largely commentary on issues such as class struggle, poverty, religion, government and institutional racism.

bystander effect/genovese syndrome murder of kitty genovese story

The events of Ms. Genovese are subject to dispute. Certain accounts suggest that Ms. Genoveses cries for help were heard and ignored by numerous residents at the apartment. Other accounts, as detailed below, suggest that residents did not hear her pleas and/or did provide assistance. What exactly happened is unknown.

Genovese had driven home from her job working as a bar manager early in the morning of March 13, 1964. Arriving home at about 3:15 a.m. she parked in the Long Island Rail Road parking lot about 100 feet (30 m) from her apartments door, located in an alley way at the rear of the building. As she walked towards the building she was approached by Winston Moseley. Frightwang yue bystander effect/genovese syndrome is a social psychological phenomenon that refers to cases where individuals do not offer any means of help in an emergency situation to the victim when other people are present. chen xianmei chen xianmai is the one that came to wang yues aid. she is a rubbish scavenger (sorry under criticism for her aid. some are callare praising her for good intentions.

ened, Genovese began to run across the parking lot and towards the front of her building located on Austin Street trying to make it up to the corner towards the major thoroughfare of Lefferts Boulevard. However, Moseley, who ran after her, quickly overtook her and stabbed her twice in the back. Genovese screamed, Oh my God, he stabbed me! Help me! Her cry was heard by several neighbors but, on a cold night with the windows closed, only a few of them recognized the sound as a cry for help. When Robert Mozer, one of the neighbors, shouted at the attacker, Let that girl alone! Moseley ran away and Genovese slowly made her way toward the rear entrance of her apartment building. She was seriously injured, but now out of view of those few who may have had reason to believe she was in need of help.

Records of the earliest calls to police are unclear and were certainly not given a high priority by the police. One witness said his father called police after the initial attack and reported that a woman was beat up, but got up and was staggering around.

Other witnesses observed Moseley enter his car and drove away only to return ten minutes later. In his car, he changed to a wide-brimmed hat to shadow his face. He systematically searched the parking lot, train station, and an apartment complex. Eventually, he found Genovese who was lying, barely conscious, in a hallway at the back of the building where a locked doorway

candlelight vigil on october

in chinas hunan provance held a candlelight vigil in remembrance of wang yue.

22nd, 2011, university students

Wang, who was two years old, wandered away from her home in Foshan while her mother was quickly collecting laundry during a thunderstorm, and walked into a narrow, busy market street. Closed-circuit television cameras captured the child in the street as a van ran over her with its front wheels. The van driver paused, but did not get out. After a moment, he drove on, his rear wheels then also crushing Wangs body. At least 18 people subsequently walked past and failed to assist her, some pausing to stare before moving on. A large truck also ran over her without stopping. She was eventually helped by a female rubbish scavenger, Chen Xianmei. Wangs parents Wang Chichang and Qu Feifei chose not to blame anyone besides themselves for their daughters death. Qu said Granny Chen represents the best of human nature, its the nicest and most natural side of us. The drivers of both vehicles were detained by police in the days after the incident.

A few minutes after the final attack a witness, Karl Ross, called the police. Police arrived within minutes of Ross call. Genovese was taken away by ambulance at 4:15 am and died en route to the hospital. Later investigation by police and prosecutors revealed that approximately a dozen (but almost certainly not the 38 cited in the Times article) individuals nearby had heard or observed portions of the attack, though none saw or were aware of the entire incident. Only one witness, Joseph Fink, was aware she was stabbed in the first attack, and only Karl Ross was or a group of friends leaving the bar when Moseley first approached Genovese

aware of it in the second attack. Many were entirely unaware that an assault or homicide was in progress; some thought that what they saw or heard was a lovers quarrel or a drunken brawl
