To play or not to play

 Why do we need men? It's a serious question, it is one I've been asking myself a long while, and it's certainly the sort of thing that put me on the path to eternal sleep, self deletion for the soft ones among us. If no one values your presence, why then would you want to participate in the game?  It's a good question, probably one of the most important questions, and those of us capable of asking that question are the ones who get to dictate the terms.  These are the ones who grab the world by the balls and remind it of its duty to us, reminding them of the role that they have played in its ascendance, and threatening it with the mayhem they are truly capable of.  It occurred to me that an important question, what's the value of my absence?

Kill Bill

 Get used to dying, it's inevitable No one wants to die, it's understandable, you live a long time you get used to living, dying is an inconvenience. It's the same for the ego.

Silence is golden

 I have a neighbour,  He's on the young side, bright-eyed and full of enthusiasm. A symptom of blue pilled sentiment that riddled my youth.

It only takes time before the scale falls off and the blind can see. God, I can't wait to have kids, just so I can be reminded daily of how idiotic it is to argue with a stupid person. Only that idiot is the fruit of your loins, and you have no other choice than to have that conversation.  where do you go when no one is listening? what do you do when there's silence on the other end of the phone? you stop talking, of course, it would be crazy to keep talking after all. That's what they say about people who talk to themselves. What's ...
