staying up til 4 AM doesnt hurt in the moment but it does in the longrun meanwhile waking up at 4 AM hurts in the momentbut less in the long run. additionally staying up til 4 AM feels like an extension of the day but suddenly things get A Little Weird whereas waking up at 4 AM feels like entering an alternate dimension briefly and then slowly re-entering normality as the sun rises. hope this helps

i hate you "pair the spares"/"everyone must be paired" tropes, i hate you forced last minute romances, i hate you implication that a happy ending means a romantic partner, i hate you amatonormativity

Incredible new thing happening with Elon today: he fired a disabled Twitter engineer for prima facie discriminatory reasons, trashed talked the ex-employee on Twitter and then discovered this employee came to Twitter by way of an acquisition of that employee's software start up and the sale contains a clause that if Twitter terminates his employment it has to pay him 100 million for the software he developed. The fact Elon Musk might have to personally sell of Tesla stock to meet this obligation has caused Tesla's share price to dip yet again.

Also Musk deleted his tweet trashing the employee but it's preserved and being reposted by multiple Twitter users, at least until Musk can figure out a way to nuke the screen grabs from orbit.

it is really wild that people are incapable of seeing children as being able to make autonomous informed decisions

i want crinkles around my eyes. i want hair that is patchy and streaked with gray. i want to wear old fashioned out of style clothes. i want my tattoos to be wrinkly and ugly. i want saggy tits and weathered hands and liver spots. i want a wavery creaky voice. i want scars and pockmarks where my piercings used to be. i want pucker wrinkles around my mouth from drinking out of straws and kissing people. if you try to sell me any creams or serums a big bomb will explode.

Hollow knight teaches you that sacrificing yourself no matter if it's noble would just continue the cycle of violence and not change anything so instead you should traverse a buzzsaw minefield and see where that gets you

also tangentially related to my last post - someone i worked with years ago told me about this thing she always tried to do. she said that every so often, when she's with a friend, she let's a stranger 'overhear' a compliment. she'll go to the shop and, as she's walking away from the till, she'll say something like 'that cashier was so lovely, weren't they?'. or she'll wait until someone walks past and say 'gosh didn't they look gorgeous in that dress' or 'their hair looks amazing' or 'wow that person's tattoos were so intricate - beautiful'.

and it really stuck with me. imagine walking past someone and overhearing them say 'that outfit really suits them!' to their friend. imagine choosing to shine a little light into the world for no other reason than because you think it's a nice thing to do.
