Broken by Norah Jones
He's got a broken voice and a twisted smile,
Guess he's been that way for quite awhile,
Got blood on his shoes and mud on his brim,
Did he do it to himself or was it done to him?
People think he don't look well,
But all he needs from what I can tell,
Is someone to help wash away all the paint,
From his purple hands before it gets too late.
I saw him stand alone ... under a broke street light,
So sincere ... singing silent night,
But the trees were full ... and the grass was green,
It was the sweetest thing I had ever seen.
He may move slow,
But that don't mean he's going nowhere,
He may be moving slow,
But that don't mean he's going nowhere.

An excerpt from fight club by Chuck Palahniuk
"You're not how much you've got in the bank"
"You're not your job"
"You're not your family and you're not who you tell yourself"
"You're not your name"
"You're not your problems"
"You're not your hopes"
"You will not be saved"

Singapore bans two porn websites in symbolic move
SINGAPORE - Singapore has banned access to two pornographic websites in a "symbolic statement" of the country's societal values, its media regulator said on Friday.
The two sites, which the regulator declined to identify but local media named as YouPorn and RedTube, work in a similar fashion to popular video-sharing website YouTube. The two Web sites allow users to add and download sex videos.
"It should be noted that the hardcore pornographic videos posted on these sites are very easily accessible by the young as each video will start streaming for free once a user clicks on the related link," said Jason Hoong, an official from the Media Development Authority .
The sites, which were banned after the authorities received feedback from the public, are the latest additions to a list of 100 "mass impact objectionable" pornographic websites banned in Singapore.
Singapore, which disallows the possession, distribution and making of pornographic films, defends its action as necessary to protect the young.
Online responses to a local media report on the ban have been unfavorable, with users condemning it as unnecessarily moralistic.
"I will definitely surf the Internet by proxy from now on, to be defiant so as to preserve my rights," wrote one user.

If you want to protect the young, start shutting down all schools.

HurtI hurt myself today
To see if i still feel
I focus on the pain
The only thing that's real
The needle tears a hole
The old familiar sting
Try to kill it all away
But i remember everything
What have i become?
My sweetest friend
Everyone i know
Goes away in the end
You could have it all
My empire of dirt
I will let you down
I will make you hurt
I wear my crown of s**t
On my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Beneath the stain of time
The feeling disappears
You are someone else I am still right here What have i become? My sweetest friend Everyone i know Goes away in the end You could have it all My empire of dirtI will let you down
I will make you hurt
If i could start again
A million miles away
I would keep myself
I would find a way
i don't know what kind of person i have become.

how unfair the world is!
i found out that something unfortunate happen to this particularly sweet girl. general consensus has it that this girl is so poor thing and everything in the world stop track to moan for the huggable little thing.
i am so jealous. What about shijie who tried so hard to navigate in this society filled with so many social norms and mores that he barely understood? Who will give a shit to the guy who tried so hard to make good out of his life but failed miserably most of the time? Who will pity the one who tried so hard but screws it up at the last lap? Well just because he lives in hate does not mean that he should be labelled emo and chuck under the carpet. well he too would like some care and concern.
All christians who preaches love and equality but discrimates people based on religion, belief or just fuck around
should go to hell.
