The System Sucks


Ah that 1990s jadedness. I wore nothing but black for much of the 1990s. It's almost cute now compared to how crazy society has grown. I fear the new systems they may have in store for us with Soylent Green possibilities and having everyone move into teeny houses but hey remember I was an art student once upon a time, I always had that questioning stance towards the system. I did the outsider art thing, and had my own DIY art shows.

I think Generation X knew what was coming. A more intuitive generation? I am not sure. But some of us knew.....

Was Daria An Aspie?




I watched Daria all the time. Finally a shy bookworm high school student. She questioned society and shallowness around her. Probably the MTV denizens just saw her as an alternative nihilistic wannabe slacker for the 1990s, but as a character she was much more. She'd be more stoic and perhaps logical then myself in personality but I wonder if Daria was an Aspie? I am glad she had Jane. I always wanted a cool art friend in high school but was too much of a nerd even for those cliques. The first picture describes me to a tee. I got friends later which is good but I still read a bunch of books.
