Scientific Research & Self-Development Activism
I'm back bitchez!
I thought I'd make a quick blog entry to kill some time. I've haven't been on I-Power all that much, though I have come on here from time to time in lurker mode as I have been very busy. I think I'm going to start getting active on the site again as I have really enjoyed the site since joining in '08.
I decided it's time to step out of the shadows after expressing my emotional frustrations about the world we live in and the people that inhabit it with the Shiznit on Facebook and he referred me to a recent discussion on here about why we should even give a damn. I really enjoyed his feedback in that discussion thread, and I've known this for a while now but he and I think a lot a like.

In my opinion, in some of these cases, there is a shared blame. Maybe referring to society as a whole was too much of a…"
