Newgrounds.com — Everything, By Everyone.

There is no excuse for ignorance. Yet it is everywhere. Oh how it persists. I am plagued by the ignorant and the apathetic. Their continued existence makes me sick to my stomach and puts my nerves on edge. Every part of me is repulsed by the happy sheep who speak only in grunts and baying. I try to ignore them, but when the world is falling to pieces around you it is hard to keep your attention off the faults of man.
The world requires intelligence in order for it to make sense. The more you know, the more you search, the more that is revealed that you don't know yet. Even with a lifetime devoted to study it is impossible to know everything. I understand this. Even with this is mind, without study what is the point of life. Just wasting my oxygen, my food, my water. These things I could be using but these stupid sheep continue to feed, continue to hump, continue to breath and fart and speak even though their existence is pointless.
Their fleece is cut, their flesh is taken when they are too old and yet they stand by and allow themselves to stay as a flock for the slaughter. They are content with this. They are happy to run around, to stand in fear of the unknown while allowing someone else to manage their lives and to feel for them, react for them. "Let someone else do it." It is the anthem of their nation, a nation I no longer belong to.
And you know, if they were to ask me to come back I would know what I would say.

But these things are of no matter. I don't have long as it is. Even now, so far into it, I can tell that I am losing myself to the treatment. I have tried. God knows I have tried to resist, but their persistence is commendable. I think I a may very well die here, but not yet. I will not perish until the truth is known. Until all is revealed. The truth about the current way of things. The truth about the world.
It all happened so fast that not even I am sure that things were any different before. Those walls, those towering walls that cast those on the outskirts of the city and beyond in darkness half the time and keep us in. Those abominable eyesores that make it clear that we are not free, that we are not righteous, that we are nothing more than penned animals.
But not me.
Oh, not me my dear comrades. I am different. But I suppose that is why am here instead of out there. Quietly wasting my oxygen, my food, my water. I am rotting away, most of what I am is already gone. But inside there is something holding on, something deeper than their efforts that keeps me together, keeps me from rotting away. Rotting away like the rest of the world, in this large scale decontamination room.
They speak of germs. They speak of infection. But I know they only tell me this to try and make me believe their promises. I know the truth. I know I am already damned.

People can be sexually aroused by different things and in a variety of situations. An arousal may be physical or mental in nature. A person may be sexually aroused by another person or by particular aspects of that person (eg.: hair color, build, smell, smile, etc) or by a non-human object.

When a person is sexually aroused by another person, it may be seen as an indicator of that person's sexual orientation. When sexual arousal is achieved by or dependent on the use of objects, it is referred to as sexual fetishism. This also includes sexual arousal which arises from another person's body part.

Most people are sexually aroused by a physical stimulation of an erogenous zone, especially if it is accompanied with the anticipation of imminent sexual activity.

In addition, some people may find nudity, erotica and pornography sexually arousing, though what aspect different people find arousing will vary. Most heterosexual males are visually stimulated by female nudity or partial nudity, while some heterosexual females are stimulated by the state of romance with their partner. According to the marital and sex therapist, David Schnarch, intimacy, the honest portrayal of the two people joining in the sexual act, may lead to a heightened state of passion in sex, including sexual arousal. Such sexual arousal may not lead to an actual sexual activity, beyond a mental arousal. In a 2004 study at Northwestern University, the female participants (both heterosexual and homosexual women) became sexually aroused when they viewed straight as well as lesbian erotic films. Among the male participants, however, the heterosexual men were turned on only by erotic films showing women; the gay males were aroused only by films showing men. The study's senior researcher said that women's sexual desire is less rigidly directed toward a particular gender, as compared with men's; and women's desire is more changeable over time.

Sexual arousal may also be assisted by a romantic setting, music, or other soothing situations.

Given the right stimulation, sexual arousal in humans will typically end in an orgasm, but may be pursued for its own sake, even in the absence of an orgasm.

Some people may experience a sexual arousal disorder. This may be characterized as a lack or absence of sexual fantasies and desire for sexual activity for a period of time. This may be caused by a mental disorder, such as depression, drug use, or some other medical condition. The lack of sexual arousal may be due to a general lack of sexual desire or due to a lack of sexual desire for the current partner. The lack of desire may be acquired (i.e. it may have started after a period of normal sexual functioning) or life-long (the person has always had no/low sexual desire).

Unlike most animals, human beings of both sexes are potentially capable of sexual arousal throughout the year; therefore, there is no human mating season.
