Miranda 04:05
Miranda You have the right to remain silent. Everything you say, everything you do, everything you write, everything you show can and will be held against you. You have the right to remain silent. You have the right to remain invisible. Everything you say - will be saved. Everything you do - will be recorded. Everything you write - will be backed up. Everything you show - will be viewed by forces that can and will hold it against you. You have the right to remain silent. If you're not visible, you do not exist, but maybe that's preferrable. Everything you write will be backed up and possible to retrieve in a search engine for anyone.

Afraid of surveillance Big brother likes to watch, but he's had his overdose of pleasure when people expose their lives and their secrets at their leisure. Be careful what you write. Will it stand a critical inspection? Your diary not the net is the place for personal reflections. You say you're afraid of surveillance, but I know you've never been. The deepest fear within you is the fear not to be seen. Monitoring every step of our life without infiltration. Our free will and vanity are the reasons to our situation. Fly under the radar - Meet a friend face to face. Fly under the radar - Move away to a secret place. Fly under the radar - Only use cash. They don't leave a trace Fly under the radar - like a credit card when someone pays. Fly under the radar - Turn off your phone and stay alone. Fly under the radar - Don't use internet, keep your profile low. Swim over the sonar - Anyone might watch your moves. Feel your paranoia grows!

Fimbul 05:53
Fimbul We've already had two hard winters in a row. Now we're waiting for the third. where the summer almost ends before the melting of the snow It's the Fimbulwinter, mark my word. It's the period of coldness that precedes Ragnarök or call it Armageddon if you like At the winter solstice next year we know much better if the crushing power of judgement will strike You can see it all around you. You can smell it in the air. The shit has already hit the fan with earthquakes and volcanoes, disorder everywhere. Even China syndrome in Japan It seems we have come to an end. It seems to be our fate, as the Mayans predict the final fall to wintertime next year. The end. All signs indicate that we live in the last days of this world. Ragnarök is near. The horsemen of apocalypse are saddling their horses to ride the surface of the earth. They're doing good in Africa starting conflicts and wars where civilization saw it's own birth. And Famine has already turned acres into dust creating starvation and rage. Exporting food to the western world We enjoy it with lust. Eutrophication is our Plague. It seems we have come to an end, but not really yet… It seems we have come to an end. All signs indicate that we live in the last days of this world. Ragnarök is near. The end. You have to contemplate that the Mayans predict the final fall to wintertime next year. We're consuming far too much. We're consuming much too fast, stealing from our children. This will never last. We'll soon see countries falling from the burden of their debts. Economy is stalling. I hope I'm not correct, but if I am, you'll never know what's next, what will come. We'll plant a seed that will grow and maybe there'll be some future archeologist that find what we have left and understand the consequence of egoism and theft. It seems we have come to an end. All signs indicate that we live in the last days of this world. Ragnarök is here.

Future archeology Take a look 5 - 600 years from now A fraction of mankind lives on Building on our ruins remains of the past Trying to remember what's gone. What will they find, The future archeologists? What's left behind? Take a look 5-6000 years from now a new civilization blooms. Curious of the myths that surround our time, they start to search for the reason for our doom. They take a look 5-6 metres under ground the most robust constructions remain: silos and deposits for nuclear warheads and waste are found. They open up Pandora's box again. What will they find, (The sarcophagus around Chernobyl, will be a haunted place, where the tomb raiders get lethal diseases.) The future archeologists? What's left behind? (- Lethal diseases) Take a look 50 million years from now aliens find a world turned to dust We were a parenthesis in the history of Earth A thin layer of poison in the crust. What will they find, (Polluted sediments bear witness of a species that flooded the Earth and perished.) The future archeologists? What's left behind? (- Polluted sediments)

Perfect 02:59
Perfect Everyone else make mistakes. Not me, not me. Everyone else should give and take. Not me. I just take. I cannot help I'm without guilt. It's just the way that I am built. That's why I like to throw the first stone. It is my duty, my duty alone. I am perfect. I do nothing wrong. I am perfect. Beautiful and strong. I lead my men to victory, I change the path of history, because it is my destiny to be perfect. Do as I say. Keep up the pace. Obey! Obey! Don't mess with my perfect office space. Just obey or go away. I build my fortess of concrete and steel. And from the top I will reveal that people must think outside the box. Their own completely meaningless box. I am perfect. I do nothing wrong. I am perfect. Beautiful and strong. I lead my men to victory, I'll rule the world in harmony, because it is my destiny to be perfect.

Content 02:52
Content Are you satisfied with the content the content of your life? Are you content with the satisfaction the satisfaction of the night? Content Content Contemplate the confiscated hours of a day Concentrate and find the things that makes it worth to stay Are you satisfied with the continent the continent where you spend your life? (li li is a half life) You are upset and intolerant Is the future elsewhere always bright? Content - don't look back - don't attack - be faithful - you have everything you need to be content - It's a fact we react ungrateful take comfort for granted and stop to feel content

Start and continuation of something better Suddenly my life was torn apart forcing me to a brand new start, but I don't know where my steps are leading me. Still I know the void is worse than falling free. Sneaking away over night-old ice with careful steps, fully in disguise. But the burden of the past weighs my back and there's always a risk they are following my tracks. It's definetely new. A new direction in life. More like reset, than resurrection. It's new. A new way of life. I have to regret, with less perfection. Voices are whispering my name and say: "Come, we'll make it all the same! We'll give you back the life you didn't want to leave if you just give up in everything you believe." It's a perfect time to break up and a perfect time for breaking down or maybe both. I had a place where I belonged. I had a mission to accomplish. Now they are gone. Is this the start of something better something that will last? Is this the start of something better or am I running from the past? Is this the start of something better or just a great mistake? Is this a step into the future or a step over the edge? I had a place where I belonged and it was the most quiet place.
