| Korleis kan nokon rettferdigjera bruk av tortur? |
[22 May 2007|06:19pm] |
Under heksebrenningane var det slik at ein kasta kvinner på sjøen, og om dei sank var dei uskuldige. Eg trekker herved parallel mellom denna idiotien og den som vi ser blir uttalt av USAs justisminister Gonzales. Det er ein allmenn kjensgjerning at vi har komme langt sidan denna heksebrenningas storhetstid. Eg seier meg ueinig. Vi har utvikla teknologi og vitenskap, det er allmenleg kunnskap å lære å bruke ei datamaskin, men vanlig humanisme har ikkje ein gong statsleiarar opplæring i. Korleis kan så mange menneske ha levd og dødd uten at vi alle til slutt har lært at vald ikkje er løysinga?! I tida er det klisjè å ønske seg fred, og vi hyllar seriar som "24" som forherligar tortur så lenge det blir utført av ein kvit amerikanar og offeret frå uutalt midtaustlokalisert land (evt. Russland for variasjonens skuld). I ekte amerikansk tradisjon har vi til vår underhaldning fastfoodtortur på skjermen, "garantert tilståelse innen 24 timar eller pengane tilbake", og utafor skjermen: kva er eigentleg forskjellen? For typar som Gonzales; tydeligvis ingen. Det er bevist om att og om att at om ein torturerer nokon lenge nok kan dei tilstå kva som helst. Er dei som rettferdigjer tortur ignorante idioter som faktisk trur på det dei sjølve seier, eller veit dei nøyaktig kva dei gjer og gjer det nettopp berre for å få ein syndebukk ("så lenge nokon blir straffa, så er det ikkje så nøye kven.")?
Altså eg meinar det; nokon burde berre skyte desse idiotane...

Eg går rundt og minnar meg sjølv om Wenche Foss i morgonkåpe og med hårrullar i håret.
I blant treng eg slike merkelege nye opplevingar for å skape spenning i kvardagen. No er det jo faktisk ikkje kvardagen, men det går alltid inn i ein viss rutine desse dagane

I dag, ja. Det var ikkje så mykje å gjere. Det som fallt var hverken snø eller regn, men ein absurd mellomting som alltid landa nedi nakken uansett kor mykje eg prøvde å unngå akkurat dette.
Resultata av dagen var ganske bra. Dagen er nå over, og klokka er berre sju. Den er over i den forstand at eg ikkje har noko å gjere som er lystbetont. Eg berre går og ventar på å legge meg. Det er ikkje så mykje meining med å gå på skulen den siste tida. Eg vil så gjerne heim, også vil eg komme til ein stad der det finnes nye mennsker.

I'm sitting in the library, listening to Jazz and waiting for the right time to go get the mail. I'm all alone, and as always I enjoy that in the morning, but it means that I'm in charge of everything down here. Fear of fucking up is present but not vital. Had a visit from one of my friends yesterday, she slept over and we talked for hours. I love it when we're all together (all the friends) but sometimes its even better to just be two people.
Reading a book about a mailman who doesn't like his life.
Today I'll start packing.
My bike has been stolen. I always lock it, and the one time I forget, it has to get stolen! Probably someone who just took it for a ride somwhere and left it, but I don't see how they can do that without thinking about some poor bikeless person somewhere.
Its raining depressingly. Yesterday I worked twice, first here, then I temped at a friends cleaningjob. It was a drag, but I could use all the money I can get if I
1. Want to eat and have electricity
2. Want next years summer to top this one
3. Get a bed
4. Buy all the CDs and DVDs I want
5. Find out who I am and what I want
Starting to feel comfortable here now. The music is so soothing. It fits the moody day, and alle the notes dance upon the rain. The wildbird who's flopping about in the small pools of rain seems to fit the music perfectly. This will have to be my new morningmusic. Coleman Hawkins.
Today I'm really gonna start packing, and wash clothes.
Now I'm gonna read a little and then at ten to eight, I shall get mail.

right. Many posts today I see. I really don't understand danish people. The language is very hard to understand.
Feel bloated. Have eaten a lot today.
Three hours left:) Not that I don't like it here, but then I can do other stuff.
Today I'll start packing. Woho.
And play with photoshop.

I am now at work. This weekend was great! We went to Målrock which is a festival right here in our county. I slept in a lavvo with 7 other people. Great concesrts, great people, a perfect end to the summer, and now I'm getting ready to go back to school. Only I have a slight moneyproblem, but it'll work out. I will only eat what is thrown after me or something like that. New place to live. In a flat with two girlfriends! Its gonna be great. Plans for the semester:
Get really good grades
Be friends with people I haven't been friends with
Get a job
Save money
Figure out my future (yikes)
and try not to get burned out by doing the aboves.
BTW great norwegian bands that played at the målrock: Kaizers Orchestra, Bigbang, Ragarockers. People should check out.
It is so dead at work, nothing to do, so I might go and wash behind the books (work at library). My colleague is out in the bookstore getting well, books and icecream for us. She is great. Its a good place to work.
The sun is shining and right now I would rather sit on the grass then be here, but this really isn't so bad.
Lately I've been feeling that I have a lot of thoughts in my head that aren't finished yet. Like I haven't had time to think them through. They're thoughts about life, about people, about myself, about all the things I should do, but they just don't stay together. They fall apart and my mind gets hungry for something lite to think about so I watch a romantic comedy that really doesn't make anything better. And then the day is over.
I want to write a book.
A really good story. I'll get back to that later.

Am now working at library. There's not much to do here, so its a pleasant place to work.
I saw "saw" yesterday, it was really good. I don't usually like horrorflicks but "saw" was something else.
There is a sadness
in your eyes an intermesso of tears
between the glitter.

Right now I am sitting in an overheated internetcafe in Makarska, Croatia. Its so hot I dont think I can sit here for very much longer without passing out or something. It has all been great and I will fill inn when I am home in my cold Norway. I really hope it will be colder than this when I come home..
We have spent alot of time on the beach (what did you expect?) and testing drinks, playing cards and just hanging out in the sunshine. One of my friends is gonna get a tattoo tomorrow..yikes. I love it here. Beautyful country with beaches and a blue ocean, but I long for some mountains and the cool summerbreeze back home.. Now I will get out before I (as I said earlier) will pass out.
Love.

Its been a very long time since my last entry. The summer has begun and my plans for the summer are:
- Sleeping till noon everyday
- Croatia July 11 - 25!
- Sitting in the forest thinking about life, death and other stuff like that...
- Working at the library
- Going to a wedding
- Partying some
- Write something
- Get better at writing entries in my Livejournal.
Today I woke up late, had breakfast with my family and my uncles family (who are visiting) then I did number three on my list a little bit.
Things that are new in my life since last time:
- I have moved out from my old hybel, and I'm ready to move into my new:D
- I have discovered some music that I like for example
- The Who
- The white stripes
- Rockabilly
- Ramones
- Reagge
- Home for the holidays, so some adjustment from taking care of myself 'till thinking about three other people in the house.
- I have become more politically active. This weekend I attended a four-day long meeting with people from all over the country in my organisation, Socialistic Youth.
- Discovered I really want to be a hippie, (without the drugs).. Really want to put on some music and dance in the forrest.
I must say that I really love strawberrys. That was it. I love them.
