Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Can't say I see any beauty there.
I'd tap that
Plus, for all you know it's simply misunderstood and has a beautiful mind.

Also please stop hating on the rich. Not all of us are narcissistic assholes.

It's so capitalist right now that it might as well be communist: a small clique of people have everything while the majority of the population still views owning a cow as a key component of a good household.

My back hurts again. But I guess that's what I get for spending most of the day over a book/laptop, sadly there'll be more of that in the next two weeks, and without that many seating options (there's the hardwood/concrete floor, the almost broken couch, the small and uncomfortable chair and the big and uncomfortable chairs) I can see it only getting worse :C

Sad and I don't know why.

I wish I did.

It'd make fixing it much easier.

But nope, all I have to think about it how I haven't done much at all to be useful to anyone except what I'm told and that my parents expect more from me, being the oldest or some shit. I don't even know if it's because I'm the oldest or because I did fucking well in grade school and then the success tapered off when I got into Middle School. Of course, I'm probably just being an overemotional teenager and nothing new, but goddamnit that feeling of not knowing what the fuck I'm sad about off the top of my fucking head past being stressed otu from the aforementioned stuff or the whole thing that I'm probably going to fail ninth grade and that it's overall going to be a very depressing summer as I try to catch up or something and I get bitched at by my parents for not 'using your brain' or 'not doing your best' and honestly, considering the material, I am doing my fucking best and regardless of how I go about it, I can't help but fuckign feel bad that I am in fact, not doing my best.

I then sit at my computer, looking at all the fucking shit I've started to try and distract myself from being sad and depressed, IE my writing projects or that Fallout thing in my signature that I haven't update since fuck ever and tell myself that it's going fucking nowhere.

I just fucking hate having too much time and not enough things to do, leading to this fucking word dump.

Try doing a hobby-sport for a bit? Maybe a run in the morning, or some pushups/sit ups? It might save you a lot of pain, and needn't take that long.

It's always looked to me like capitalism and communism turn out more or less the same, just like you said.  You end up with one small group of people controlling everything either way.  Communism just skips straight to the point. 

It makes political discussions really annoying for me, because majority of people (in America, anyway) see the entirety of poltical/economic theory as one gradient scale between capitalism and communism as polar opposites.  So when I'm talking with someone and they find that I oppose their side of that scale, it's near-impossible to convince them that I don't align with the other side either.

Well, Capitalism and Communism are just a matter of methods. Their goals are basically the same.

In a Utopia world, Communism and Capitalism both result in social harmony where everyone does what they are the best at and everyone is rich equally and as they all equally deserved.

But you have to give it to capitalism, it sure as fucking hell works better in worlds that aren't Utopias.

The lower class would disagree.

But I suppose that is the appeal of communism.

When you can't be as rich as the others, make everyone as poor as you.
