When panic attacks
Pushing Pills to the Anxious
|
|
It seems that the USA is under another kind of malevolent force presently: hysteria…
According to statistics, depression and insomnia are starting to level off, people are praying more, and
they are also selfprescribing drugs.
Isn't a bit crazy how people get dawn into this insane-junky state?
Can this pulsation of dependence be read as another quitting attitude towards life?

|
|
This article made me think that perhaps forms such as art somehow lack creativity and imitate themselves more and more everyday.
Besides, Art's mission of "imitating life" has in this piece of info an example of how poor the inspiration coming from these masterpieces appears to be.
How do they expect to surprise and motivate people like that?

All looking just alike
Suppression Stifles Some Sites
|
|
In the light of the lack of individuality manifested these past weeks, I'm
having the sensation that we live in an increasingly homogeneous world.
I don't know about you but to me it's all starting to look too much like a huge boring
lump, where difference of opinion isn't encouraged…
