Look into the mirror and slap yourself, murmurring “I want this, I WANT this”. Then play a soft soulful version of we’re not gonna take it and then proceed to work whilst taking it
They were a pillar in world science infrastructure, they brought peace to world sea trading due to the dominance of their navy fleet, and hollywood helped spread liberal ideals worldwide.
Yes, they started proxy wars for privateering purposes, and have let their neoliberal tendencies dominate their politics, but Americans on the whole as well as European countries under the umbrella of their protection seemingly thrived under it.
Now they’re demanding tribute. Actively dismantling their umbrella of influence, and defunding any progressive thought in sciences and culture. This is a new trend.
Sat next to a guy on an Amtrack train. He was hosting a wifi hotspot called “Fuck Joe Biden” which he went out of his way to show me, and I noticed after a while that he had a tiny swastika tattoo on his hand. There was literally nowhere else to sit, and it was going to be a long ride.
We talked about games and he brought out his VR headset and let me play with it. I got him a coffee when I went to the food carriage and he got me a biscuit when he went. He seemed kinda tired and lonely.

I’m watching Fringe at the moment, and the main character (Peter) does this douchey thing[1] to show how clever he is by saying things in different languages to impress his colleagues about how worldly he is.
Most of the time I just accept that the actor is trying his best to pronounce the script he is given, but this time he said something in a language I did understand, and not only was the pronounciation all wrong[2] but the sentence itself did not make grammatical sense and that’s how I knew that the writers did not actually give a shit: as long as he sounds smart, he does not need to be smart. That’s how little respect the writers have for their audience.
Anyway I’m 3 seasons deep and have 3 more to go. Terrible show. Cannot stop watching.
the man is the epitome of a psycho narcissist. Constantly mansplains to his female colleagues. People die for him and he barely reacts. A woman he briefly dates ends up dead and he does her autopsy quite happily. Explains to others how they should feel about certain situations. Has the expression range of drying paint. The writing for this character is genuinely terrible and I could go on. ↩︎
again, it’s fine, the actor was doing his best ↩︎

3·6 days agoI do a coffee detox every Sunday, and can tell you that the brainfog and lethargy is real. In my case, it’s 2-3 cups a day Mon-Sat for this effect to occur on Sunday.
If I limit myself to 1 cup of coffee a day, and do the Sunday detox I just generally feel irritable and eat more sweet things to compensate but without any headaches

2·7 days agoI often think about John/J’aan. Is he the embodiment of humanity, or the complete rejection of it, given all that happened throughout his life.
Also, do his skills decay if he does not use them for a period? e.g. did he learn to juggle and then forget
Are his memories just a general vague flattened blur of too familiar human patterns, and all he experiences is the present?
Great concept
