So lets talk about... Political Prostituition.

Yesterday I was at the pirate bay. I am not going to show the link because I can't really show anything illegal here. Any it related to the video above and to the link to the site political-prostitution. And I am amazed to hear about SOPA related things more than 6 months before. During my search yesterday I also saw the site demonoid was also shut down. I think a bit around the world America is trying to save Hollywood by shutting sites and by extraditing people so in order to save Hollywood. The truth is Hollywood is became somewhat of a nuisance anyway. They just can't create new content, so they contemplate on doing remixes of old movies, over and over again and this is not even news. Smosh recently made a video joking exactly with that. (See the link below.)

See its funny knowing the the good people of Youtube can make better content with much lower budgets. And I don't care if Hollywood is pissed at the World because the World is competition. What pisses me about is the level of corruption in politics. By that I mean our politicians (even here in Europe yes), are standing for the big shots instead of supporting who elects them. How far is that for the people, if our leader don't root for us. We pay the taxes don't we? Why they need to take on millions given by big shots and make a blind eye to the people.
Dvds are extremely expensive, music too. So we need to pay barrels of money to all the content we want to watch? So they can be even more rich and mess with us again. Is our choice between watching less content or pay more money? Because if we paid for all we watch we would be starving!
On a last note (and I know I am writing about my personal agenda but that was explicit since the beginning of the blog) we need to find politicians with more virtues, we shouldn't let anyone enter into politics (I know I didn't vote for half of the people on my parliament, and somewhat that scares me). Or instead we should give more power into our countries decisions. You know a bit more of direct democracy. Don't you agree?

I agree that together we could make a change. By the way since I am giving this older post link, check also other of my ideas under the tag Floating Debt Speculation. Go head don't be shy, and tell me after what you think ;) . Thank you all!

Ps: If changethis doesn't help me with the manifesto I will make it and share with you all here and at squidoo, give it a month or two.

Pps: Go watch the political prostitution site above, it is important. It speaks mainly about US trying to extradit anyone who shares illegal content even if it is indirectly? Isn't this mad? I bet there are terrorist more worth of extradition U.S. ;)

Update: If you want to know more about this Non Sense of SOPA, see this amazing video by Kirby Ferguson that explains all. (It was from the time it was a REAL menace.)

This the way you get if you don't stop eat.

Today I saw this video on Vice channel, and I just had to talk about it. People blame frequently themselves and other for being fat. Well I think being a bit chubby is not a crime, I am a bit chubby myself. (Lets say I eat well.) But in first world countries people abuse so much! The most well known case is America, were obesity is almost a national sport, I don't need articles to prove you, a google search will show how big the obesity problem is there. The problem is if you just keep eating you will reach a point when you cannot breath well, you will crush yourself if you try to run or walk and have a cardiac arrest and die. I could say a lot of things about it, but the video explain very well the problem and it is just 15 minutes.

So have fun and watch!

Hello, my name's Carlos, pleased to meet you!

Hello, my name is Carlos Barros. I am Portuguese and as you see this blog is recent and has a propose. The propose is to expose a bit about my manifesto. It is somewhat written already, so I guess I could explain a bit about it here.
So, about me. My full name is Carlos Manuel Costa Barros, I am Portuguese, from a little city called Fafe on what many people call Minho, I study Acessory and Translation at ISCAP at the beautiful city of Oporto. I study English since I was ten and got interested into the language by the age of 14, so I have 12 years (which makes 22 years old), and so I am somewhat proficient in English. In my free time I like to talk walks, and be with my friends (like any 22 years old), but also I am hard-ass nerd and otaku (means that I am into Japanese culture). Some people consider me pretty smart for my age, and I am lot into study different subjects. When I was 19 I was diagnosed with a rare disease called Schizoid Personality Disorder and I am also said to be very obsessive. I am an odd guy with some personality defects (but who isn't). Also on my free time I am into online penpalling (making friends online) currently my only public profile that I am willing to give is my one on interpals check it out! I also have msn, skype, yahoo, facebook, twitter and tumblr (the last two I don't use often). If you're feeling like contacting just ask me about it and I may give it to you!

Ok I think that is all enjoy the rest the blog! ;)
