The cost of food, oil, and cotton isn’t going up.
The value of the dollar is going down.

Yayyy
The perfect L.A. lunch? Swing by La Estrella for a single el pastor taco, then land here for a sandwich. Also, for Ned. (Taken with Instagram at The Oinkster)
I used to work there! Oh, man. Those were the days.
I ate here once. It was really, really good. It also took us like over an hour to get our food. I don’t know if that was supposed to be part of the experience.
The next time all the guys are in town!
Maybe it’s because of the recent SOPA hype or the fact that the American dollar is going to collapse. But I’m really starting to worry about this country and what I may have to do in the future. (bare with me on this one) Army of Crime is a movie about a multi-cultural terrorist group in Nazi occupied France during World War 2. The story is of their successes and eventual downfall.
I’m writing this post because it’s gotten me thinking. If I was born into a world where the government oppresses me and kills/deports/tortures people simply because of race or color…Would I fight?
Throughout my childhood I’ve been told that the resistance is noble, brave, and courageous. But would I do as the fighters did in Army of Crime?
Today in the United States we have legislation such as the Patriot Act and the National Defense Authorization Act of 2012 that allows our federal government to spy on us, arrest us, torture us, and hold us without trial for an indefinite amount of time.
It isn’t as bad as Nazi occupied France, but our basic liberties are no longer at stake. They are already gone.
*sidenote* I just realized that when I’m done typing this post, the government will have already been able to flag me via online monitoring. If a revolution were to happen, they have my IP address, they have my address, and I’d have no part in the “resistance”. *endsidenote*
Sigh, I don’t know. I’m almost certain our world is going to fall apart in the upcoming years. My future may not be the American dream living in a nice house with my wife and children as I had always hoped and planned it to be. I may be hiding in basements plotting bombings.
It’s just got me thinking and it’s got me questioning how much I care about our principles and rights. Will I choose to be blind or will I choose to fight when it’s time to make that decision?

This was really sweeet <3
But I’m also going to take the opportunity to make a little SOPA plug.
Because of the content in this post, Tumblr would have been censored. (taken off of the domain name registry)
SOPA passes = no reblogging Pixar motivational posters!?!?
MUST SIGN PETITION NAO! <- It’s a link.
