thirty year old guy in a “smash the patriarchy” shirt pulls a gun (maybe fires? cant tell) on officers for no reason and gets shot. these people have so much pent up rage as a result of their shitty lives theyll literally get themselves killed because “fuck the police”.
i dont know how much yall have hung out with this type of person but theyre always borderline non-functional because of how anti-social their core worldview is. had a friend who freaked the fuck out at the beach because we had to put money in a parking meter + this was oppressive
he actually went on an insane rant about how “the man” was robbing him and how beaches should be free and stuff over 2 dollars. explained to his daughters how the whole system is evil and how fucked up it all was. same guy has mega issues with his dad. shocking of course.
when he was gone i explained to his daughters that people use the money from the parking meters to pay for stuff like the boardwalk and parking lot. never hung out with him again. he later basically abandoned his kids. cant end on a downer, now their step-dad is orthodox.
clarifying, the rage is from their worldview making their lives shitty. this guys at his daughters school. if ur in nice clothes at ur daughters school your life cant be that bad. theyre haunted by demons of oppression that live 90% only in their heads, they literally go insane.
this is the inevitable result of actually thinking that there is no inherent nature to the universe and that everything is a man made system. you go insane because you think everything is generated from humans and you lash out. sad in a way, many people bite into this apple.

heres the best relationship advice i ever got

not sure if i have posted it before

some guys in the 40s - 60s came up with the idea for a modified version of the english language called e prime. the main modification is removing all forms of the word “is”. [...]
so thats “are”, “were”, “be”... you can think of it as any form of that word that declares what reality is. “that movie [was] bad” (was is one), “you ARE a good skier”. the idea behind this was removing the ability to assert your perception as a fact, to make it true verbally.
when you say, “that painting IS good”, you are declaring your subjective perception as a fact. in e prime, you cant say that, you can only describe how the painting affects you. this painting makes me feel good. this painting makes me think of home, my wife, my dog.

at the heart of this new weird debate about if parents have a say in what their kids learn in school is this: most teachers went to high school, decided to become teachers, went to school for teaching, graduated, + started teaching. they have no conception of life outside school.
remember when you were in high school. imagine if since that time you had always been in a classroom. your whole life. your whole life has revolved around classrooms. since you were like, five years old. thats literally the only thing you've ever known your whole life. imagine.
SOME teachers are really cool and not like this. however for a significant percentage of this, this (literally only ever living in relationship to a classroom and school) has vastly warped their perception of life. this is just a fact that is obvious if you're around it and them.

recently one of the new internet analysis memes has been something called dead internet theory, the idea that large parts of the internet are astroturfed + essentially bots + fake, things like that. i think this has taken off not because its literally true, but for another reason
i used to work at a front desk somewhere, and id be sitting there with this guy all the time. we had nothing to talk about. i noticed he was on this site imgur all the time. we were literally just sitting there for hours so, i checked it out, being interested in... the internet.
in case you have never “hung out” there, its like reddit culture, but the format is you press the left and right arrows and just go through images and gifs people have posted, and then people make short comments below. thats the whole site, and its very insular. like reddit.

just found this book. interestingly i am fairly certain this series was folded into other books later, although im not sure. either way this might actually be from 1911 and continues my sub-plot of ellen white books spontaneously emerging into my life
i really like finding things over 100 years old when im... in the field. also that fit into historical instances (ie i believe there was an edit and reprinting of her books around 1911 just before she died). this next one is killer. check this out. ur not ready for this one

last year was so insane. feel like i made this + then could physically feel my brain give out a little bit, like doing a huge satisfying deadlift (not that i would know) and immediately shifted my energy over to the comics front. although recently i can feel the balance restoring
thats gotta be my favorite single image i made last year for sure
