“ (…) l’astrolgia è la scienza divina che rende gli uomini felici e che insegna loro ad apparire dèi fra i mortali” - Flavio Mitridate.

I’m in love with this notebook system, and the book beside it as well (“Astrologia, magia, alchimia” by Matilde Battistini. This might be my favourite picture of my notebooks, so far.

On another note, next video will be a little late, probably this weekend. Thank you again for the ongoing support.

Translation of the quote above:

“(…) astrology is the divine science that makes men happy and teaches them to appear gods among mortals.”

"In an era of “girls-supporting-girls” and “let-people-enjoy-things”, having distinct tastes or opinions is tantamount to social suicide. There is no room for good-spirited teasing or critique or gossip or even interpersonal dislike. As much as I despise the phrase, these things are human nature. We possess the human range of emotions, which includes being annoyed or petty or mean-spirited—to pretend anyone is above it is not only moralistic but biologically false. When we don’t like someone or something, we scavenge to find a political or moral reason to critique them, instead of owning up to our honest truth: sometimes, you just find someone annoying.

Our crisis of niceness is both insufferable and detrimental to our artistic output; the films, art, and music we make are expected to promote pleasantness and punish everything else. We don’t see culture as a vehicle for artistic expression, but instead for moral expression, and as such our capacity for connoisseurship is at an all-time low. A film can be visually uninspired, a song can be derivative, a book can be poorly written, but as long as it espouses some rhetoric of universal justice it will be lauded as “important”. This is boring. It is uninspiring. If you even critique the mechanisms of the culture industry and its monopolized outputs (Marvel Movies, Taylor Swift, etc), you are deemed at best a hater and at worst a misogynist/racist/classist/homophobe depending on the day and the detractor.

It is a vague and meaningless form of pleasantry and niceness that does little more than create social codes of conduct concerning our language and discourse. It is Redbubble “Treat People With Kindness” stickers on MacBook Airs, it is a mass produced t-shirt with a slogan like You Matter <3 sold as mental health awareness. It feels suffocating, a cloying Yankee Candle atmosphere that gives nothing of substance yet demands a smile and a quiet wave.

We have confused pleasantness with kindness. Pleasantness is plasticine and sanitized, florescent lights over pastel bulletin boards. Kindness is human, old hardwood floors and fresh fruit.

Kindness is bringing your neighbors a bowl of chili, or sitting quietly with the people you love to reflect in the morning. Both actions somehow sparked mass outrage online and the individuals who shared their moments of quiet kindness were either called privileged or evil or any of the -ists that internet commentors love to toss around… classist, ableist, et cetera. The people who attempted to bring some joy into their own lives and the lives of others were called ugly and annoying in hundreds and thousands of replies within the same cultural space that insists that it is materially violent to say that you don’t like K-Pop or Taika Waititi."

virtual journal, 08/12

commonplace updates + learning again and again that nothing motivates me to focus on studying as taking my time in the morning to slow down and do the things, the superfluous unproductive things, that i find joy in 🌱

Spreads from my journal.

"I have observed friendship as one observes high holy days: breathtakingly short, whirlwinds of intimate endeavour, frenzied carousing, the sharing of food, of wine, of honey. Compressed, always, and gone as soon as they come." -Amal El-Mohtar | This Is How You Lose the Time War

Commonplace on the secret and dark history of Venice in the plague time. Most of this information you can find on ‘Atlas Obscura’ and the ‘Walks’ website.

Did you know, that the places with high pavement in the city squares, often are that way due to the pile of bodies from plague times buried under it? 💀🪦
