If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny.

• Don't be afraid of loneliness; don't be afraid of too many people around; don't be afraid of sharing your life with an SO you think you don't really know. As you age, these phases tend to blunt and blend together, like the seasons. The only thing you really have, in the end, is yourself.
• Adult life is a lot more about compromising than fighting. Don't make other people's life shitty on purpose, neither allow them to make yours shitty.
• Get your regular medical check-outs.
• Leave a place if you positively can't stand it any longer, and start from scratch. It'll be okay.

That's some seriously gorgeous hair. Imaging being compelled to hide THIS.

Twisted firestatah

After my dad had locked me out of the computer room, I learned how to pick locks. And I'm not even kidding.

The dads of two guys I knew remodelled their entire basements to accommodate "the computer." Now writing this down, it sounds like they bought VAXes or something, but it was just plain old Pentiums, plus printers and stuff.

So this guy I knew was trading porn. Mostly pics, a few low-res clips. Some warez here and there, too. Most people did not have fast internet yet, let alone a CD burner. He'd lug around these large wooden crates filled to the brim with home-made porn collection CDs. It was totally out there.

Wind River, Fall, ...

That 1935 piece surely seems prophetic. For example this part:

Development of the anti-scientific and anti-cultural campaign, cutting down of education

For the last five or so years, I've been noticing a surge of anti-intellectualism. People are not any longer ashamed to publicly dismiss "smart alecks" and "know-it-alls".

That's it! That's it! Flaming globes of Sigmond! Flaming Globes of Sigmond! That's my note! That's what I thought was so funny... That's not funny. There's nothing funny about that.
