Frustration is mounting...

...and all the political discussion doesn't help. I mean, if people really want change, then vote for someone else. The Cape Socialist Party (I don't even know if it exists!). Anyone!

Talking of which, I rate I could actually start up a Cape Socialist Party, and that leads on to a whole lot of political thoughts and blatant holes in the democratic system. Say I get 20 people to work with me on building socialism. That's easy because you can always find someone out there who believes in a very similar/same thing as you do. Then, I get these people together and motivated, and I get some rich person to sponsor our campaign. That's easy, because there's always a rich person willing to pour money anywhere. Somewhere. Then, you get the public motivated, tell them about how socialism works and how it will solve all their problems. Especially the impoverished who are quite frankly over having a socioeconomic system that doesn't respect them or their interests.

Now ideally by this stage I should be getting about 102% of the votes, having done nothing more than put in about a year and a half of my life into politics. Surely! There's got to be something I've missed...

Anyways, for those of you who are reading this blog and not laughing hard enough, here's something to lighten the spirits:

This what happens when you ask 'shop to auto-crop a picture. There are literally 20+ little squares of grass there, each of which is about a pixel by two pixels.

Okay fine it wasn't that funny. But it's a day in the life of me, so I guess this is the kind of stuff that breaks the monotony every once in a while...

No seriously: if you're like-minded like me, check out this webcomic called Wondermark. It is by far the most legend webcomic I've ever read, and I tend to read quite a few. I wish I could draw like that... The latest series of pictures, that Tinkerer's Handbook is just ridiculously funny.

In the meantime, the target market for my history notes is disappearing. The price is now set at R30, and I'm not lowering it any more than that. Dear me, thank goodness I don't do economics. I can understand matrix things like people on Facebook, but I can't understand them in real life. I also cannot for the life of me understand market forces. Well, once it gets more complicated than supply and demand.

Bleh.
