I figure with your account's age and messaging history, it might be a bug or something that you can't post threads. I'd DM or @ the mods.

Sorry to keep ranting about work related stuff, but they're getting on my nerves and I have no idea how to politely tell them to sod off. I finished yesterday for the weekend and they kept asking me to do stuff after I finished yesterday. I've just received another message asking me to do something else. I don't care how little it takes. It's nearly 10pm on Saturday night. Ugh.

John Wick fun fact:
Some might already know this, but his nickname Baba Yaga is a mistranslation. in the film they say it means boogeyman, but it's actually a witch in slavic folklore.
In the german dub however they apparently had someone who's familiar with slavic folklore work on the dub's script, who noticed the error, and actually corrected it.
so in the German dub he is correctly referred to as Babaj, which is the actual slavic equivalent of the boogeyman.
however, they eventually gave up due to the mainstream popularity of the baba yaga nickname, and just also called him that in the german dub starting with the third film I think, as it became part of pop culture.
I'm kinda sad they did, they should have stuck with it to have consistency.

Google Gemini, question:
"Do computer keyboards and video game controllers contain microplastics?"
Answer:
"Yes, computer keyboards and video game controllers contain microplastics. As plastic components in these devices wear down from use and environmental exposure, they shed tiny particles known as secondary microplastics."

Have any of you tried applying for a job these days?
It''s simple, right? Just send your resumeé and get a Y/N reply.
Oh no, you have to download this fucking app, fill in this fucking crap and do this and that. At the end of the week.you get five different emails that are written by artificial int.
It's not enough that you show up with your goofy face and drop your papers on the desk.

I can count them on my fingers too.
To be perfectly honest, I also rejected a lot of job offers.
99% of employers rub me the wrong way. When I look these people in their eyes, I see dollar signs.

Word.
I was listening to a Rodney Mullen TED talk where he touches on the subject. This was held on a college campus and he was invited to adress the students there and share his own personal beliefs etc. For the record, Mullen is one of my heroes in life.
But anyway.
There were people in that audience who had extreme tunnel vision. And this vision was their version of their own future and they vehemently believed that everyone should experience it.
I call them Zuckercunts and they should all fucking die in a train crash.

It's a cozy show. I love the shroom episode. The show forces me to cook noodles before each episode as they make me hungry.
I wish we would be more a technologically balanced society. That people weren't as glued to their screens and the internet. It would probably be a more social and relaxed society.

Definitely. I feel like I'm always 'switched on' these days. Access to too much stuff. Like some form of information obesity.
Information Obesity. I like that. Im adding that to my lexicon.

When I was younger magic shrooms were my favorite most fun drug.
I once spent 30 minutes at a party just staring at a wall that was breathing
My advice is to do it with friends and if you have a bad trip just eat something and you'll be fine 20 minutes later.

I hate those 'fitness' videos YouTube keeps recommending. "I ate like The Rock for 24 hours and here's what happened." I'll tell you what happened, sunshine, absolutely nothing happened. Piss off.

Same. And the alternative "you're still fat and ugly cause you're doing these exercises wrong"
Well, I am definitly not, and I'm pretty sure I do the exercises correctly

Mopeds are the worst fucking invention the world. That monotone exhaust note is the soundtrack of your miserable piece of shit life that is getting you from something stupid to nothing at all.
So, whoever is jacking them and shipping them to Albania/Africa. Mad respect.

I can't recall the last time I had a nightmare.
My dreams have a recurring theme where I'm looking at bus schedules and have to go somewhere.

I don't think I've ever had a boring dream. All my dreams seem to be either scary or bat-shit crazy. I suppose that's what happens when you fall asleep to horror movies and horror music haha.

I used to keep a dream journal. Not long after I started, I started to remember more dreams and in greater detail. I might start doing it again.

Getting a little colder at night now. I've started to use my electric blanket. It's absolutely amazing...I think. No idea. The cat is being selfish with it.
