After having been accused of being an attention whore, even if it was just a joke (and I'm sure it was, considering who said it), I've decided to back away from LJ for a little while. I write here what goes on in my life and what goes on in my mind. I write for myself, as it's a wholly therapeutic exercise for me. I never write with the idea in my mind that I'll get comments or any other kind of attention. I abhor attention whores as much as I pity them. It distresses me that I might have come across as one. Comments are disabled because I require no replies. This is simply a PSA to let anyone out there reading this know that I'm going underground for a few days or so. If there's something you want me to read in your journal, please send the link to that post to tinhuviel@livejournal.com. Thanks.

I'm making this post a friends-only post so as to avoid any more tension for one of my pals in whose journal this bullfunky began. I left the person to his/her opinion out of respect for my friend, who doesn't deserve a poo-flinging contest in her journal.

I just got an invitation to kill myself and be the first in the (hopeful) extinction of Humanity. Never have I said I want to see all of us disappear without including myself in that, but I won't do myself in and lose the chance of missing out on the Alpaca Lips. That would be daft of someone who relishes the idea of such an occasion, but that doesn't mean I set myself apart or above my fellow species.

If someone is so bloody serious about "saving the future" or "saving the Earth," they're most likely fluffy bunny idjits who deserve to feel the heat of the Inquisitors' brand. If you can't take Humanity or its inevitable demise as a joke, then you're not going to be any help to your "cause" anyway.

Maybe I'm too jaded. Maybe I'm too much of a cynic. Hell, I'm probably both. In fact, I'm almost certain of it. But people who are keen on a New Age for Humanity or saving the Earth make me want to vomit. Mother Earth can take care of herself. Why do you think the weather is so fucked up? She's trying to balance out a situation that we created. If Humanity was fighting Mother Earth in a boxing match, I'd place my bets on Earth. She's bigger, stronger, and older than all of us put together. She will kick our collective arse long before we have a chance to achieve Enlightenment. We're destroying our habitat. Once it's gone, Earth will no longer support us, we'll die, and we'll be replaced with something stronger and better than we. It'll be a beautiful thing, man. Beautiful.

All I can say is that it takes a pretty petty and shallow individual who resorts to inciting suicide in response to someone who has an obviously drastically different opinion to their own. Variety is the spice of life. If everyone who didn't agree with the Advancement of the Human Race decided to jump off a bridge, it'd be a pretty boring world that would still self-destruct in good time, probably faster 'cos there'd be no misanthropist around to bring down the morons with the miraculous opposable digit a notch or two.

What-the-fuck-ever.
