Don’t underestimate the Force. You don’t believe in the Force, do you? You don’t believe in the Force, do you? Leave that to me. Send a distress signal, and inform the Senate that all on board were killed.

Don’t act so surprised, Your Highness. You weren’t on any mercy mission this time. Several transmissions were beamed to this ship by Rebel spies. I want to know what happened to the plans they sent you.Your eyes can deceive you. 

 Don’t trust them.

Red Five standing by.

He is here. I’m surprised you had the courage to take the responsibility yourself. You are a part of the Rebel Alliance and a traitor! Take her away! Obi-Wan is here. The Force is with him.

  1. I find your lack of faith disturbing.
  2. I call it luck.
  3. I don’t know what you’re talking about. I am a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan–

Dantooine. They’re on Dantooine.

The Force is strong with this one. I have you now. Dantooine. They’re on Dantooine. Red Five standing by. Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you’re going.

  • I want to come with you to Alderaan. There’s nothing for me here now. I want to learn the ways of the Force and be a Jedi, like my father before me.
  • Hey, Luke! May the Force be with you.
  • Red Five standing by.

I have traced the Rebel spies to her. Now she is my only link to finding their secret base. I care. So, what do you think of her, Han? Hey, Luke! May the Force be with you. The Force is strong with this one. I have you now.

Obi-Wan is here. The Force is with him. I’m trying not to, kid. Dantooine. They’re on Dantooine. Look, I can take you as far as Anchorhead. You can get a transport there to Mos Eisley or wherever you’re going.

Happy beautiful child in headphones listening to music.

No! Alderaan is peaceful. We have no weapons. You can’t possibly… Remember, a Jedi can feel the Force flowing through him. No! Alderaan is peaceful. We have no weapons. You can’t possibly…

I care. So, what do you think of her, Han? Ye-ha! Alderaan? I’m not going to Alderaan. I’ve got to go home. It’s late, I’m in for it as it is. You mean it controls your actions? Escape is not his plan. I must face him, alone.

A tremor in the Force. The last time I felt it was in the presence of my old master. What?! I need your help, Luke. She needs your help. I’m getting too old for this sort of thing. She must have hidden the plans in the escape pod. Send a detachment down to retrieve them, and see to it personally, Commander. There’ll be no one to stop us this time!

You mean it controls your actions? I’m surprised you had the courage to take the responsibility yourself. I suggest you try it again, Luke. This time, let go your conscious self and act on instinct. I have traced the Rebel spies to her. Now she is my only link to finding their secret base.

I care. So, what do you think of her, Han? What?! I’m trying not to, kid. I care. So, what do you think of her, Han?

Still, she’s got a lot of spirit. I don’t know, what do you think? Escape is not his plan. I must face him, alone. You mean it controls your actions? But with the blast shield down, I can’t even see! How am I supposed to fight?

Episode 05: The Dark Side of Being an Expat

Perhaps, but perhaps your civilization is merely the sewer of an even greater society above you! I feel like I was mauled by Jesus. Stop! Don’t shoot fire stick in space canoe! Cause explosive decompression!

Well, let’s just dump it in the sewer and say we delivered it. Fry, you can’t just sit here in the dark listening to classical music. The alien mothership is in orbit here. If we can hit that bullseye, the rest of the dominoes will fall like a house of cards. Checkmate.

Fatal. Daddy Bender, we’re hungry. And so we say goodbye to our beloved pet, Nibbler, who’s gone to a place where I, too, hope one day to go. The toilet. Well, thanks to the Internet, I’m now bored with sex. Is there a place on the web that panders to my lust for violence?

Clay’s Mixtape: A Musical Podcast BONUS Tape – Springsteen

by

As it is Bruce “The Boss” Springsteen’s birthday today, I thought I’d share with you 12 of my favourite Springsteen songs.

Now this list is likely to be different on any given day because I love so much of his work. There’s a few on this list that would appear every time like

Darkness on the Edge of Town
Atlantic City
The Promised Land

Anyhow, I’d be curious to know what your favorite Springsteen song or album is…

The Internet is our soma

by

It’s not as if I didn’t know this already. We are, without a doubt, collectively addicted to the Internet. It doesn’t matter how many digital detoxes you go on, or how many times you delete all the social media apps from your phone (to include WhatsApp, Messenger, Telegram), you will always come back.

Resistance is futile.

The FOMO is too strong. 

There’s a transitional quote in the new Netflix documentary – The Social Dilemma – in which, Edward Tufte says:

There are only two industries that refer to their customers as ‘users’: illegal drugs and software.”

The Internet is our soma:

Soma is a drug that is handed out for free to all the citizens of the World State. In small doses, soma makes people feel good. In large doses, it creates pleasant hallucinations and a sense of timelessness. The citizens of the World State are encouraged to take soma by “hypnopaedic” sayings like “A gram is better than a damn.” When they experience strong negative emotions, citizens take a soma “holiday” to distract them from the unpleasant feelings. John sees soma as a tool of social control. He says that taking soma makes the citizens of the World State “slaves.”

Brave New World

Brave New World (read it and have your mind expanded)

Lord knows I want to kick the habit. I want to real bad, but nothing short of a zombie apocalypse, where all the technology lay in dust and ruin like Oyzimandia’s statue, will stop me from coming back to this filthy habit. 

As Hunter Thompson once described politics and journalism, it’s “a habit worse than heroin”.

But what can we do? We’ll never be able to put the cat back in the bag now that’s out. 

The Social Dilemma is worth watching if you haven’t seen it already. I don’t think it’ll tell you anything you don’t already know or are at least aware of, but it has made me reflect on my own philosophical stance on the dilemma of social media and the apps that fuels our phone all of which are designed to keep pumping dopamine into your system.

Clay’s Mixtape: A Musical Podcast BONUS Tape – Jimi Hendrix

by

On this day in 1970, Jimi Hendrix was found dead in his basement, in London. He was 27 years old. He had taken nine pills of the barbiturate , Vesparax, along with alcohol. He died of an overdose.

Although his mainstream career spanned only four years, James Marshal “Jimi” Hendrix is widely regarded as one of the most influential electric guitarists in the history of popular music, and one of the most celebrated musicians of the 20th century.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame describes him as “arguably the greatest instrumentalist in the history of rock music”.[1]

I’ve put together this digital mixtape of 8 of my favorite Jimi Hendrix songs.

Peace,

The Soulcruzer Diaries #295: I Missed the Starting Gun

by


From his bunker somewhere deep in the heart of Warwickshire, Soulcruzer talks to you about the slippery slope of time and how he’s not bothered about dying and is going into middle age gracefully. He also explains why he’s not qualified to give anybody advice on how to live their life. He also shares how Hunter S. Thompson’s Better Than Sex inspired him to live a Gonzo life, an attitude he hopes to bring to the show.  Also in this episode, Soulcruzer goes down the rabbit hole with Goombah on a Bike to talk about time.

the key

by

i’ve spent too many years
lost in the darkness of my mind
heart separated from soul

and then i met you
the key between the two
and the world opened up

like it must have done for
magellan stumbling through
the strait that now bears his name
