Far away

The cattle is furrier
The mountains are sharper
The birds cry louder
The houses are homelier
And the women

Poetry
Tapas

I told her over tapas
That I have two papas

between olives and anschovis
Oh, well, c’est la vie

The saddest joke

When one of your parents unintentionally buys a single size mattress for a dual size boxspring but it doesn’t really matter because the other parent isn’t there anymore.

I saw it in a dream. It woke me up to take this note.

The good life

Old Europe? he crackled. Do you mean that historical collection of stones and a bunch of people who refuse to believe in it?

The good life

Let’s engage with websites!

I use the free website annotation tool hypothes.is to add comments to websites. Made for education, it can also “enhance” (for lack of a better word) public discourse. If nothing else, it makes you read articles more actively, like you’re engaging in a conversation with the author.

Example:

Activism
Or we would have to live forever…

Cioran once said that he was glad that the concept of suicide existed because otherwise, he would kill himself.

Perhaps this also applies to transhumanism: without the concept and idea that it is technologically not impossible, of eternal life, we would just have to live forever.

Philosophy

The only reason you are not a slave
is that you are more productive
if you are not a slave.

Activism

Allahu Akbar
I wouldn’t go that far
I wouldn’t blow myself Up
To be a member of the club

Laughs

Honor and love – what else – defy the usurpation of meaning by the Story of capitalism, because they require the notion of “enough”

Philosophy

If we encounter something you don’t know, our brain goes in either a fearful guessing mode or a mode of joyful curiosity. I think we can practice that.
