so. school started for me again today which inevitably means i'm starting up lj again, after having sworn off posting. but i think i'm going to only use it productively. like, i'm gonna try and make it a real blog. because, i mean, with all this supposed education i've been getting over the last three years in communications at SFU, i've become all left-wing, jaded and critical. and i've noticed that my profs have warped my thinking, and i just can't be audience to cultural products in the same way i used to. gone are the days of naïveté and surface acceptance.
and i've also become incredibly embittered with how critical we collectively aren't. so i'm just gonna start jotting down some of the flaws i see in our consumer culture, in an effort to perhaps enlighten my peers, but moreso, for the perpetuity of my own critical analyses.
