So, you have been dreaming of some change in your fucking life. You cannot put the finger on it but you feel depressed and compressed by the XXI global economic bulldozer.
It has gotten to the point you cannot stand your empty shitty life anymore. You go and see the medical doctor searching for some relief.
You are sick, involved and wrapped in emotional desert storms, many of which are of your own creation.
You are sick, involved and wrapped in emotional desert storms, many of which are of your own creation.
You have but you feel that you don´t have is one of the most frequent storms that hits you. But still you have if you are one of those who have happened to land on the other side of the fence, a member of the overconsumption tribe.
The physician prescribes you pills for your constipation. But no use. You are still feeling lousy.
You are not crazy yet or perhaps you already are but do your damn best not to show it at home and work. You don´t want to be shipped to the asylum on the hill.
The storms go back and forth in your head. Off you go to see a psychologist or a psychiatrist pleading for help.
But some of these experts might be crazier than yourself and after treatment you will feel you are living on Mars, worse than before.
Overall, you feel there is something gnawing in your head.
If this is your case, you are infected with psychoworms.
What! What the fuck is a psychoworm?
Psychoworms are those bits or chunks of invasive media information which flood you and brainwash you al the time, telling you from alpha to omega what you must have, what and who you must be, what you must eat, what or who you must fuck, what you must buy, what you must wear...And a long etc.

These parasites create havoc in your brains.
They basically act as whole slews of social chains that make a slave out of you but you still sort of "feel free", especially when you hop on your car and go for a unsustainable ride.
Dare anyone who challenges you telling you you are in prison with invisible bars, you would kill them!!.
On top of this, your diet is a mess. It is basically chunks of animal cadavers and lots of sophisticated food.
In the end, you end up with frequent indigestion, an intestinal microbiota fucked up causing long fits of anxiety and depression, frequent pains in your colon and an itchy ass.
So, now you are itchy at both ends.
And suddenly, Eureka! You have been suddenly hit by a "bright" psychotic idea!!
You are excited that you will refresh your dry brain with fresh water and will hopefully impress your own neighbours with an expensive set of tropical wood furniture (Fig. 1).

Little did you know, and if you did perhaps you would not give a shit about it, that when you buy what you don´t need near, you shoot and obliterate the lives of many people, human and nonhuman alike, in far away lands.
Everything is connected in this world.
The only thing apparently disconnected is you. You had better find this connection to connect with the whole and feel entire once again.

There is sense in what now does not make sense to you right now. Find it!
Perhaps the following documentary will help you on this. Please watch it!

Borneo: Unmasking the Truth (Video 1) attempts to expose the reality and corruption
surrounding the deforestation. Using footage from various sources, our goal is
to reveal the harsh truth on the very real threat of extinction for many
endangered species of animals and plants.
Borneo is the third largest island in the world. This is an area extremely rich with biodiversity, with many endemic species of plants and animals. In just ten years, between 1994 and 2004, 361 new species were identified and described, with thousands more still unknown to man. Borneo is also the home of many famous endangered species such as orangutans, elephants and rhinos. Among relatively unknown endangered animals we can also find the clouded leopard, the sun bear and endemic Bornean gibbons.
Borneo was once (around 1950) covered extensively with tropical rain forests but an ever-increasing rate of deforestation in the last 50 years rapidly shrank the area of the ancient Borneon forests.

Home is becoming a lonely place
The novelty of your psychotic new acquisition did not last long and your neighbour did not seem to give a fuck of your new set of luxurious tropical wood chairs and tables on your backyard deck.
And soon you were back where your were before, fucked up, eating lots of shit, waiting for another psychoworm pooping in your head.
Next morning you woke up feeling tense, flattened out by your nightmares.
Far away from where your miserable world rolled on the roll of the roll of this fucking economic machine without a soul, a lonely orangutan dropped dead to the ground.
The orangutan (Fig. 2) had been hanging on a lone tree for dear of its life for ten days in a row.

Nobody came to help this poor gentle beast. Although there are some humans who do care about these apes.
The tall nearly dead tree that witness the little animal´s death was the only one left standing in a region totally devastated by chainsaws, bulldozers and fire.
The tall nearly dead tree that witness the little animal´s death was the only one left standing in a region totally devastated by chainsaws, bulldozers and fire.
The weapons employed by greedy and stupid men who destroy their own nest.
Home is becoming a lonely place. Earth is in pain.
Despite this, you are still set on another shopping spree.
You are already thinking of another of your deforestation escapades impacting Borneo or any similar tropical place when you go hunting to the nearest shopping mall.
It is time you see where you step.
Are you working on this? We are.
