50. TV free since 2001
And before that, TV free from 1983 to 1993.

If you want to see a film, netflix, make a deliberate action to watch
a film, but to be serially entertained, is to be sat in a chair and
lapdanced over for hours and hours, that you don't know whether
you had intercourse or not, because what's the difference when it
gets to a certain point.

And all the propaganda sells the certainlty of authority, the absolute
power that is greater than the individual. It is the endemic frame of
all television media that the indivdiual is enslaved. I don't know
why anyone watches that crap except for MTV or on-demand cinema.

As much as ghandi's passive revolution against britain was to spin
cotton, perhaps the symbol of good people taking back america, the
red white and blue revolution is the TV set in the yard, painted
bright colours like a flowering shrub growing in the garden.
