Waking up.

Waking Up
by Bobo

Waking up with a stiff neck in a room that is not mine. The alarm went off and woke me up. It's good that it did, I have to be at work in an hour. The room is almost empty except for a small thin mattress, a small pillow and what ever I had in my pockets. It's basic knowledge that you should have everything you need to survive for one day in you pockets. The only thing I need right now is an aspirin. My head is playing one of those songs with to much bass. The one you hear guys playing to loud in there cars just to get some attention. A bass beat that make the car windows shake or in my case it makes my head feel to small for my brain. That is the way my head feels.

Between the fact that I only slept 5 hours and the headache sent from Satan there is only one question ringing in my brain. - What the fuck did I do last night? I have faded images of bars and people running in front of my eyes. It's places I don't remember. People that i don't know the name of.

7:00 in the morning is to early to be hung over. But there is nothing to be done. Maybe some water will help, but I doubt it. I go in to the kitchen to see if I can find something to eat. Now I know where I am. I have bin here before. The kitchen is a mess. Plates and dirty dishes everywhere. I even think I have washed dishes here. Yes I have. It was some time ago but yes.

I open the fridge and take a look at whats inside. There is not much in there. Some cheese, some bottles, milk and something different in the door. One, two, three eggs and then a plastic egg. The top half of it is transparent and the bottom half is green. And in the egg is a small ball of aluminum foil. What the hell can that be? A spice? Or maybe it's vanilla. I open the egg and start to peel the little foil ball to get it open. And then it hits me between the bass beats in my head. It's cannabis. It's nice, green and it smells like herb. A very good place to keep a stash.

After finding some toast in the freezer I get my shit together and walk out the door. The sun is way to bright.

Good Morning Berlin.

European Election.

Go Dammit!

Today the race begins, England and The Netherlands go to the polls. And the rest of the 27 countries will follow suit.

This is not really a post to say that the EU is good or that we together can do good shit. I don't know if the EU is such a good idea, I mean do we really know what is going on so far from our home? It is a valid question. I wonder who is really checking what they are doing in Brussels.
And that we together can make good things happen, well I know that we can do more if we work together but I also see that the main reason that we have the problems we have is because of the greed. Over the years ultra-right wing morals has blown over Europe and the world, spreading greed. People don't really care about there fellow man.

But I care and there for I just want to say, Go vote! Any one that can vote should go vote. These people in Brussels have move power that we can imagine. Make sure that there are good people in the Parliament. So tell everyone that it's time to vote. Do you have a friend in Europe tell that friend to vote. Do you live in Europe tell everyone to vote. Vote Dammit!!!

Coraline

Be careful what you wish for.

"An adventurous girl finds another world that is a strangely idealized version of her frustrating home, but it has sinister secrets."

Coraline is a animated movie that uses different animating techniques to create something, hmm... strange. But it is a interesting alternative reality. One to easily get lost in. And I guess that is what this is about. Don't get to lost in an alternative reality! You might not find a way out. Or it's no more than a Alice in wonderland telling kids not go to far from there parents.

And I am sure that some might like it so much that they watch it 420 times...

To arms.

To the Barricades.

Tomorrow is the first of May, a holiday for the worker. On this day you don't need to work but you should go out on the streets and demonstrate you views and show you discontent. And for such activities you need a Palestinian scarf. This is not only a fashionable accessorise but also a vital street war necessity. A piece of combat gear with many uses. As the pandemic moves on and spreads the scarf can be used as a mask. As a mask the scarf hides you identity from all watching big brother, if soaked with water it makes it easier to breathe when the teargas comes flying and since your in a big crowd the germs will also have a hard time to get through.

It does not stop there, if you or a fellow fighter gets injured it can be uses as bandage until the medics can get there. And I'm sure that it can be used as a rope to tie thing together.

But in later days this scarf has hit the big fashion outlets and can be bought in all colors. No longer a way of showing solidarity with Palestine or ones political views. So how to wear this scarf. Well, the white with black or white with red can be a nice detail. All depending on what you wear with it. I like the green with black, the military one.

The Best Stuff I See will be back on monday so until then watch out and give the Man hell.
