i took it like a grown man cryin' on the pavement...

18 March 2010

today.

i love spring. i love sunshine and the warmth it emits onto my skin. i love long walks around and about Manhattan. i love art galleries and sunglasses. i love pockets. i love free samples [i got pizza at one joint and ice cream over a fresh baked brownie at another...seriously]. i especially love the newfound friendliness in the neighborhood.
After last night's St. Patrick's mayhem, my eight avenue/thirty street walk was quite necessary to clear my head. Two hours of free open bar time WILL leave me with a hangover--i'm not entirely invincible to the poisons.

Anyways, here's my good deed of the day:
I passed trader joe's earlier and a protest for labor rights for farmers was a-happenin'. i felt bad going inside considering i support their cause, but like i mentioned earlier, i REALLY wanted a free sample haha. So pretty much the Florida tomato harvesters get paid like shit, no health insurance, right to overtime pay, sick time etc. etc. Trader Joe's and Stop & Shop, cause they're so big, play a big role in farmer exploitation and therefore can do a lot to improve these conditions. So apparently, according to the flier i received, i can help by watching/posting this video:



and giving this letter to a manager:

and telling you people to do the same.
so yeah, our food's our fuel. respekt.

Epic.

"Next stop, 14th Street, Lesbian Square. 14th Street is run by lesbians. It's nice out today, all the lesbians will be out. That's why I like the winter. No lesbians in sight. Woman without man, is a man."__poetry of a  Homeless Man
