David Bowie should i hate him?

well he had put so much personally into her persona that they had to derive form somewere...that is just a foolish usumption though i of course dont have any thing to back up...this is going to sound stupid and nerdy but im sure yall are use to that by now.

I love writing RPs and i am a little into the whole furry scene im not gonna go out and by a fur suit or any thing like that. The art work impresses me and some of the ideas are pretty cool.

For those who don't know a furry lemme explain.
everyone catches them selves every now and then doing "animal like" things example some people love gnawing on bones, everyone has one or two odd quirks that they can relate to a animal, like someone who loves to cuddle and lay in the sun all day would not be offended if you said they were like a cat cause of it. But what a furry does is they looks at those animal characteristics and look a it as if that animal is a part of them, (I am getting to a point i swear.)

I notice that i am like a mouse, now ofcourse i dont actually think im a mouse i know im not thats scientifically and in all way impossible, but i can feel a connection to my "fursona"(furry personality is a fursona) because of a bunch of the minor traits i have that make me mouse, like i love love love fruit and cheese, im very hyper, yet also very shy, im quite small, i have bad HDADD, I have big round ears, I sometimes randomly shiver for no reason, and and this is the big kicker sometimes ill randomly squeak, you see i get air pockets backed up in my chest/stomach were ever hiccups come from :B(i'm so dense) and the'll come up like a single hiccup and it sound like a squeak, it is involuntary and i never know when its coming,

Now then what im trying to get at is, I know im not a mouse and i don't do those things because I am trying to act as a mouse, it is just a personality that has came evnaturally to me, and that is how i believe it is with bowie, not so much like multiples personality, but more like extensions or ch-ch-ch-changes to his normal ones.

now with that, lets take a chance on a couple of kooks. I always thought this song was about gay parents specifically i dont know why but it seems like a pro gay couples song to me, am i right in assuming that?



P.S. Tekla i never said i was sorry for being so dumb and disrespectful I am honestly very sorry.

The way illusion is manufactured in the modern world is pretty damn convincing.  It's really the highest of the high arts of the late 20th and early 21st Century.

When I was in Missouri
They would not let me be
I had to leave there in a hurry
I only saw what they let me see


I think the modern saturation level media has created just that kind of siutution where you are never left alone to think, reflect, contemplate^* - but the images are rushed at you at such an increasing speed - a la Clockwork Orange - that the just all merge together and become some sort of 'truth' even though they are nothing of the sort, they very, rarely are even real.  And they are first, last and always - what someone else had decided you should see.  What they let you see.



I'll use Jack Nickelson in Hoffa because it's a good example, and I like him and the movie both, so no one can accuse me of picking on it.  So, here is the question:
To what degree did Nickelson assume the persona of Jimmy Hoffa and in some way become or at least channel Hoffa so that it could be a compelling story of labor, the little guys and the power of brotherhood?  Or, was Hoffa just another story of everyday working people as told by rich Hollywood stars?



* - It's that 'think, reflect, contemplate' deal that books offer, and what makes them so dangerous.
