just a quick update

So there are a few things i would like to write about on here, but i am afraid i cannot allow myself any real extracurricular writing until i finish this article for this freelance job.

i just want to again reveal how creepy the 'bbc america reveals 'specials are.
i spoke of the one about men that lived and slept with 'real life dolls'.ahem. yeah. which made me want to shower forever and then die.

well now one just came on about "reborn" babies. terrifying lifelike babies that one can order and carry around like a real baby. you can have breathing mechanisms, warming pouches, etc etc. and you can push them around in a pram and get the attention a new mom gets whenever you like it.

no. sorry. this is worse than the man doll thing. if you want a baby so much that you are going to buy a sketchy doll and carry it around, maybe you should look into adopting a baby. maybe take care of the babies that need your help, instead of having one manufactured for you. or is that too much trouble? because real babies cry and poop and throw up and love. how can this doll be fulfilling?

actually, no, the people who buy these should not adopt a baby. because clearly they cannot handle the reality or responsibilty that comes with one.

and that's fine. neither can i right now. but i will not push around a doll just so people can come talk to me about my "baby". this makes me sad. isn't there another outlet for these people? go to a concert. read a book.

i don't understand the world. and i am wierd. good luck to you normal people out there.

sounds like the "mechanized age" is starting to really infiltrate our "civilization".

Scary shit.

My question is, "How long before these creepy baby dolls show up in fake You Tube videos where they pretend to kill a baby?"

Now you know how my mind works. I completely agree with you though. It's sick.
