The Maya Calendar is actually a system of calendars, some of which were “published” around 5th century, BCE. They didn’t even have cable back then. No- back then records (i.e. CALENDARS) were carved into stone.

Anyways- here is my proposed alternate uneducated explanation as to the fruition of the Maya Calendar:

They ran out of space.
The Mayans were an advanced civilization and perhaps they figured that going as far as they did was giving the rest of humanity a HUGE head start on continuing or creating their own way of measuring time.

Then again, why would the end of a vintage calendar mean anything other than the end of the world? People panicked for Y2K and that was based on modern technology.

So, until the planes fall from the sky and my iPod Nano stops working, I’m going to say that humankind has just become lazy.

Now if you don’t mind, I have a calendar to write.

Until My Next Rant,

I’m curious. I’m curious as to how a man can still be unable to love another man without fear. I’m curious as to how a man (you know, with a penis and stuff) can die from showing affection to another member of his sex.

Today is World AIDS Day: a day to reflect upon this virus.. But is mere reflection really enough? Is a gaze into the immense pain and suffering that has occurred really enough to do justice onto the men that and women that have fought for what their heart believes? I think not.

I recently saw a performance which took into account many aspects of early homosexual sexual encounters and the huge taboo is carried along with it. I can’t imagine a day where it was dangerous to express yourself- be you a black, gay, a woman, a queer, a transgender or any other type of “deviation” from some mortal interpretation of what God wants of us.

How can a human being suffer from giving love to another? How can the physical expression of intimacy inhibit one from “the good life”? Why do those that are different in their opinions than me want to hurt me without ever meeting me?

I am disappointed with the progression of man- we massacre other humans because of difference of opinion.. For what? So that we may desperately cling onto some translator’s belief system that forbids us from loving thy neighbor?

We all hurt. And I think that most people are so focused on their own oppression that we fail to pay even a passing glimpse at the suffering of others. Once a sociological group feels they have been paid their respects, they selfishly accept their spoils and join the ranks of those who hurt them. It’s truly a sad thing to reflect upon.

Again, today is World AIDS Day. Today is a day to pay our respects to those who have been impacted by HIV/AIDS. Today is a day to pay tribute those who have fought for what I can only call Love. Today is a day for unity.. I hope it is.

So, as I sit here hacking away at my iPad and catching a frequent glimpse at the early morning sky, I can’t help but think of all of my older friends (I’m not calling you old, bitches) that have seen their friends fall by the wayside due to the virus that is predominately spread by love.

Anyways, I could go on for days about this, so I’m going to just shut my mouth for a bit and go back to bed.. But I want to say that YOU ALL FUCKING ROCK, you strong, brave-ass motherfuckers!

Love, peace and health to those affected by this disease.. We will rise above this.. I love you all.

Diet Cock..

I’m currently flying over Northern Ireland with less than an hour to go until AMS.. and have been racing racing into the sunrise.

I can’t even find words to express how excited I am for this trip. I have always wanted to venture out into Europe to witness my heritage. There are so many sights I want to see and so many things I want to (some of which are not dirty, surprisingly).

Within my first few days in Berlin, I plan on seeing “the wall”; and not that song where kids get caught in mean grinders and protest modern education, but the Berlin wall! I get to expand my mind and experience things I would never see back home in the USA.

After I get my innocence out of the way, I will be doing an event called ‘Hustlaball’. It’s supposed to be one of the biggest gay events in Europe and I plan on being very dirty. My performance partner is a dirty one.

I will be staying at the Hotel Axel, which is supposed to be a very cool, all gay resort hotel. It’s funny, actually, because the website boasts that it’s ‘hetero-friendly’- I love that.

One thing that I think I will find funny/challenging is that I don’t speak German-at all. I’m hoping people will be know what I’m saying.

Anyways, the sexy Blonde-haired beefy Dutch man just got on the loudspeaker and told us to stow our electronics, so I’ll have to post this once I land.
