The Fine Art of Time Manipulation
Pluto
Mon, June 1, 2009 - 8:39 AMOn Saturday, I grew sick and tired of moochers and drunkards with no sense of limit. Everybody else did, too, but only I decided to speak up, and on Sunday I posted an explosive open letter at the group's board, telling off those who deserved it. As usual, (almost) everybody turned against me, and suddenly I became public enemy. Not that I'm complaining, quite on the contrary. As they were angry with me, and I wanted to smack each of them on the face--the parasites for being parasites, and everybody else for being cowards--, I just hit the "leave group" button after deleting all the contributions I made as a moderator. I'm still undecided as to what I'm gonna do with the blog, 'cos that's not mine only to make vanish, but I don't think it'll remain associated with the group. If it does, I'll delete all recipes I posted there, which comprises of at least more than half of all contents.
I remember my favourite astrologer of all time and witchy-buddy Elide Cascone telling us in a lecture once, "Pluto plucks by the root". On Sunday I had taken a "what Sailor Moon character are you" quiz on Facebook, and the stupid quiz gave me Sailor Pluto.
I treasure my ability to draw inspiration from anywhere.

Good for you.
Sounds exactly like something I would do—and have done, many times. I don't know if that's good or bad, but obviously you have my full support. I question the propositions that you are "narcissistic" and/or "emotionally unstable." I suggest that whoever's (whosever? I wish English had a good construction for this) voice/s ring/s in your head with those accusations almost surely didn't know what they were talking about and was/were ill qualified to make such diagnoses. Moreover, who is the arbiter of emotional "stability"? |

"who is the arbiter of emotional "stability"?"
Powerful question!!! Khrysso, if I ever have to pay you in money what you've given me, I'd be even more broke!! Thanks!!!! |

You've inspired me—I just deleted my CS profile, too (since your enthusiasm for it was my main incentive for joining). Yours is still showing as being active, but I suspect it will take a day or two to readjust. Still, I hate when I tell services to drop me and they don't.
Re: arbiters... For years now, whenever someone tells me I'm "too [fill in the blank]," these questions spring immediately to my mind: 1. "Too [whatever the adjective]" for WHAT? 2. Who says so? 3. What qualifies [whoever says so] to say so? (Or more pithily, "Who the hell are YOU to tell me that?") |

Oh, I'm still very active on CS. The best part (travelling and having guides and hosts and friends anywhere on Earth) hasn't even begun. I've just ditched the drunkards for my own good. I've just separated what I want from what I don't.

sometimes I read too fast for my own good. I just spent 5 minutes trying to figure out what group you had just quit.
Ah, couchsurfing. I have to say, I have heard you talk about it and a few others, and honestly, I like the idea, but yet careful about the potentials for abuse, of which you described. I could totally see how those things could go horribly awry. I have never thought of you as narcissitic and emotionally unstable. Pluto is an awesome and terrible. Often associated with Death, it is also the promise of new life. So, expect new things and hopefully better things to replace what was been removed. |

Actually, contrary to the Buzz, nothing I found on CS is impossible to find away from that website. Selfish bitches, hipocrisy, laziness, deceit and vanity. Humankind.
