porn

what is pornography? something to titillate - to cause emotional or sexual arousal. often at the expense or exploitation of others.

so how is this different from today's media? the sensationalist, manipulative crap that is fed to us day in and day out. for the ratings, or to produce fear. i say that it's all newsporn. it is frightening how it is run by the rich, who have a vested interest in controlling this country. and we buy it, we eat it up because we crave the excitement. unfortunatley, as bill moyers stated, "once you decide to titillate instead of illuminate... you create a climate of expectation that requires a higher and higher level of intensity."

is all porn bad? in the decadence and extravagance of the western world (until it all comes spiralling down and crashes) we have more than enough food to eat. as a veritable foodie there is nothing (almost) that i love and appreciate more. foodporn. how sensuous to taste the briny wetness of a perfect oyster as it slides down your throat, the bite of caviar as the taste explodes in your mouth, the warm liquid center of a molten flourless chocolate cake. porn, porn, porn. and i love it.
