Zhoro sent me an URL to the photos from the wedding – 3GB … It’s almost frightening, Anton has probably worn off his camera.

In the evening we had a meeting to discuss Open-culture.net, and it was pretty interesting – there will be changes on the site, storage for the users’ files, and we’ll most probably move it to another machine. We made a list of things to do, and a mailing list for internal discussions. The fun part of all was the playing with Vasiliy (a can that’s 30-40 days old), and the drinking of absent(mmmm).

A lot of people are writing in their blogs – vote, vote. I decided to write something on my position, because I haven’t seen anything similar…

The theory says that in principle if there’s a party that’s good, and can do the job (which doesn’t exist, it’s shown pretty well in our history), it should get most of the votes, and win the elections, and “to lead us into the bright future”. In practice such party doesn’t exist, in practice the voting is influenced by a lot of people that are easily manipulated (at some moments I start thinking that even I could do that, if it wasn’t so disgusting).
I think I’ve explained to a lot of people the story with the piece of wood, that’s being distributed at some places in Bulgaria – it’s long just enough, that when put on the ballot paper, shows where should you put the mark for the right party. It’s not that a lot of illiterate and ignorant people will vote, it’s just that even the law for the elections is being manipulated for such things…
For me the voting is a support of all of the current system of corruption and taking advantage – the parties are fighting for power, not for the responsibility, which they have to take, and there’s practically no punishment for fucking with the people for 4 years – there are only a few shot politics, only because internal quarrels… I personally decline to take part in this – if I want to do something, it won’t be this way, I hate the measures that are just to make you feel that you’ve done something.
(just think about it – is it possible to vote against someone? If you’re interested, see the system that Debian utilizes…)
