apocalypse got nothin' on me, baby.

Things that annoy me (I am going to Hell for this)

• People who preach their beliefs, whether it be liberalism, libertarianism, conservatism, etc. There is a fine line between educating and supplying information, and preaching and being closed minded. Most people feel the need to not only cross but eradicate that line with a bulldozer.
• Willful ignorance about the world around you for the sake of being politically correct. You call me a racist for posting articles about Muslim men killing their women for having a phone conversation with another man, seriously? I am not calling all Muslims bad. I am saying this is a problem. Just like the beating of Asian America children in the armed forces and in Philly public schools by African Americans is, just like the atrocities committed NOT JUST by the Israelis, but just as prominently by the Palestinians. Sorry, this section got knocked off track.
• Nitpicking. There is so much nitpicking on this website, it is crazy. You can agree with an entire post then feel the need to reblog it over one stupid point and cause a rage. Or get angry at someone for posting an image you find offensive to a culture of people whom in general do not find it offensive (ex, dream catcher tattoos and Native Americans). Yes, some people of the culture will be offended. Will most of them? Probably not. Stop taking it upon yourselves to fight for a cause no one cares about.
• On that note, the Activism Bug. I am sick of people pretending to advocate for something simply because they are bored, feel guilty, etc. PLEASE do not tell me the only reason you advocate for higher taxes is because you are guilty of being poor. PLEASE do not walk the Relay for Life because it is what all of your friends are doing. 
• I am sure there are others, but these will probably be sufficiently offensive to lose me followers and get blacklisted.

I'm Sam.

I like languages. I speak English and tiny drops of Japanese and French and even Latin, if you get my drunk enough. I like to do artsy things in my spare time, which is pretty nonexistent. My camera is my baby, though I'd like to do more mixed media and stop being such a stick in the mud.

I am a volunteer firefighter, and yes I am probably the shortest firefighter ever recorded in history. Trust me, finding gear for this body was NOT easy. Joking aside, though, it is immensely rewarding.

I live on a barrier island called Fire Island (off of LI), and am a pretty stereotypical Islander, which I would like to call the four S living: Surfing, Smoking, Swimming, Sex(ing).

My life, how I live it, and my thinking has radically changed in the past couple of months. And I like it.

Shameless self-promotion:
