Please stand by.

I am making an attempt to restore Love & Projection to its former righteous self. I was glancing through my Tumblr (which has also been quite dusty), and came across a dream I had written about 6 months ago. Although it was so long ago, I could still envision every color, every movement that had spiraled through my mind before waking up. 6-months old, and I'm reposting it here. It should have never belonged on my Tumblr anyway:

It was simply in reach as any other car door; jumping twenty-five feet up in the air, only to fail grasping the handle. I began to slowly fall as my moment of panic quickly shot through. The side of my head contacting concrete, and my eyes watching the streams of crimson flow away from me. My world shuttered into darkness.

With eyes open, I am sheltered by the morning lights.

Water among fire.

You are the beautiful dragon exhaling breaths of radiance, a light bringing life to the phoenix of my soul. I rise again, reminded that love never comes with ease, but is always created from two burning strengths. We may become tangled, but through waters of patience, tides turn to waves by the beat of our hearts; moving together among the ends of earth.

A time of need, a time of change.

The Woes of Google/ Verizon and Net Neutrality.

The io9 article, "How the Google/Verizon proposal could kill the internet in 5 years," sums up net neutrality pretty well:

"But guess what's going to remain on the public net, the place where you go when you don't have money? Certainly there will be educational resources like Wikipedia. But mostly it's going to be advertisement-saturated free content from major entertainment comapnies. And of course there will be many opportunities to give your personal information to Facebook, or gamble away your non-existent savings on Zynga games. (Sorry - did I say gamble? I meant "pay for premium poker game content.") Put in brick-and-mortar terms: There won't be any produce markets on the public internet, but there will be plenty of liquor stores."

Google/ Verizon are basically proposing to gentrify the internet.
