Its Totally Uncool to Post about Your Cat & Your Curtains on Your Blog!



I'm always reading in famous people's blog tips (famous as in mildly notable on Etsy/Craft Community People) that its totally uncool if you post about your cat or your curtains. No one cares about your Cat or your Curtains, its totally boring! There's people from Etsy that post pictures of themselves in their underwear on their blogs. Honestly, I'd rather see your cat then you in your underwear but maybe that's just me. Plus, let's face it - there's a lot of pervs on the internet. Yet since I'm an outlaw, I'm gonna post pictures of my Cat! Then in a few weeks when I'm finally caught up on orders & shop updates, I might even post about my craft room curtains, since well I know you all will appreciate them.

**Additional nonsense comments: Whats up with the vegan friendly Etsy sellers that create vegan animal friendly products, that sometimes even donate to animal groups....yet their shop info always says Animal Free Home!! I see this a lot. I mean honestly, with the multitude of awesome creatures getting euthanized everyday in animal shelters the least you could do is adopt one!

(For real, more of a joke, less of rant. We can poke fun at each other right? Snare, Cymbol Crash).


Here's a series of pictures of my cat Sleepy Kitty getting in my way when trying to take pictures for my Pet Friendly Vintage Shop!

Government Advertising.

prop•a•gan•da (pr p -g n d ) n.
1. The systematic propagation of a doctrine or cause or of information reflecting the views and interests of those advocating such a doctrine or cause.
Public Relations! Its so politically correct. This is information produced by the government or by private corporations the government contracts, to create and distribute information to persuade the opinion of the public. The same public that puts these authority figures into power. We pay the government to set up campaigns to tell us what we should think and we elect them according to the views they manipulated us with and then give them power to act on their will. Does protecting their doctrine really have anything to do with us?

public relations
pl.n. Abbr. PR
1. (used with a sing. verb) The art or science of establishing and promoting a favorable relationship with the public.
We are clearly losing the war in Iraq and spawning an increase in international “terrorism” and yet the government is implanting “favorable” fake news stories into a seemingly normal network news broadcast to persuade the minds of the people. The government must spend billions of dollars on PR or the American public will get mislead. The question is, is it working? There is no favorable news coming out of Iraq because there are no favorable conditions there.

1. to give false or misleading information to.


The government has to much influence in the media! Not only is the media already controlled by a few corporations, those corporations are in the business of government. What could be more secure for the corporations than to invest in the government? The Media will print what the Government wants us to know. There is very little independent, non-biased, truth telling, source printing the facts, the facts which are the news.

Also, the Office of Global Communications has been created to “integrate the President’s themes” worldwide.

Not only has the government tried to create propaganda campaigns overseas – they do it here too! Even with the FCC investigating the Fake News.

13 Nov 2001: "After two months, American television's cautious approach has turned into knee-jerk pandering to the public, reflecting a mood of patriotism rather than informing viewers of the complex, sometimes harsh realities they need to know"

But wait! Didn’t Rumsfeld say back in ’01 that the regime wouldn’t target the news media?

Q: Sir, is it correct that yesterday, you terminated efforts by the administration to start an information operations campaign related to this? And can you assure that there is no information operations campaign targeted at the news media?
Rumsfeld: Well, you can be certain there is no campaign targeted at the news media.
