smile for doorsteps – they’re home to some people.

If you’ve a smile on your face today, may it be due to do something you did for the thousands of people who lost their homes and are living in fear and destitution. Sleeping in back alleys and on corporate doorsteps. I often wonder what Earth would be like without the ignorant walking amongst us. It disgusts me to the bone.

I don’t understand how anyone can step over or walk around a person who can’t get up. Yes, many are drug users, but what else do they have to do to escape their circumstances? We need an exodus of people to help the homeless. It is not right. There are many organisations needing help right now. Can you not spare an hour a week? Or what about animal rescue centres who need bedding and blankets for the many unwanted pets handed over as though they are toys at this time of year. It is not always about digging deep for coins, time is what they need too. The most caring people I know are not on a computer all day, they are out there, right now, giving their time freely. Not for self promotion or glory seeking, but because they care and want better things for the vulnerable.

I do believe charity starts at home and there are people sleeping rough within yards of where we sit warm right now.

media is ‘without a doubt’ dated #diary

No wonder younger people aren’t watching television anymore or subscribing to entertainment channels. It is the same old faces going round and round again. There’s so much young and vibrant talent out there that need the platform. More so the platform needs them! I read such amazing blogs and then look at what is available commercially and there’s just no comparison to the utter rubbish for which we seem to have little control.

Then there’s those over exposed famous prats who use their position or influence to scour blogs and other online resources to fabricate material (without due permission) within their own. Never giving honest credit to the real source. Where’s the job satisfaction in that? I suppose the money they make. Just makes it all even more unbearable for the amazing artists out there who really are so much more gifted.

One day I believe this will change and become more vetted. But for now I suppose society just has to swallow it. It is a pity the major channels and publishers cannot see this. They’re losing out. Media is faded, dated and repetitive. Most of the people I know listen to music as opposed to switching on the TV. Far less biased and much more freedom.

The 80’s vibe is a novelty for those who cannot remember it. But I was there and I am sick of seeing the same old muppets banging on about the same old shit. No wonder so many of them feel they have to take what others are creating. But what a mess they get away with it. TBH©
