shit i dont understand: in this episode of TNG there is a planet with a colony of people who are all clones of 5 different people 300 years in the past right?
but due to the copy of a copy thing they need new DNA
and because the peeps on the enterprise wouldn't let them have their DNA they kidnap Riker and Pulaski and take their DNA by stabbing them with syringes
why didnt they just offer them a meal and then get saliva off of the forks or something? surely they could have done that with their magical-ass future science

Mildly amusing things: seeing a post I made a year ago with the "#heavenly nostrils" tag reblogged by someone and tagged "#phoebe and her unicorn"
to be fair, humanity does make itself rather loathable
If we are to hold humanity collectively responsible for the crimes of every individual human and group of humans than we must also hold humanity collectively responsible for the triumphs of every individual human and group of humans.
I feel like it's very, very silly to focus only on things like war and oppression when we as a species have a 5,000-year history that spans thousands and thousands of different things, any of which you could spend a lifetime studying.
Humanism in this sense appears, for instance, in Cocteau’s story Round the World in 80 Hours, in which one of the characters declares, because he is flying over mountains in an airplane, “Man is magnificent!” This signifies that although I personally have not built aeroplanes, I have the benefit of those particular inventions and that I personally, being a man, can consider myself responsible for, and honoured by, achievements that are peculiar to some men. It is to assume that we can ascribe value to man according to the most distinguished deeds of certain men. That kind of humanism is absurd, for only the dog or the horse would be in a position to pronounce a general judgment upon man and declare that he is magnificent, which they have never been such fools as to do – at least, not as far as I know. But neither is it admissible that a man should pronounce judgment upon Man

i'm not having any kind of mental breakdown. oh, i think i forgot to take fluoxetine. well, these are things i usually think. i just avoid saying them. it's hard to explain. "Man, I'm so excited about my results," a coworker says. "I finally got the angle in the microtome right." and then i'd be like "KNOWLEDGE IS VOID. HOW IS IT THAT A COLLECTION OF MEAT WAVES PRESUMES TO DESCRIBE 'FACTS' AND 'TRUTH'? ALSO, MY JOB PROGRAMMING THINGS IS KIND OF BORING COMPARED TO DISSECTIONS, BUT ON THE OTHER HAND I'VE MADE INSUFFICIENT EFFORT TO KILL RATS" like some kind of asshole fucking atheist who comes into the conversation about how god is dead in well you know the deal
point is i'm always like this, really, i just don't bother saying it, i keep it in, keep it in the nothing, sex joke
this and everything is very relatable and i feel u but with some differences: i think its wild crazy and cool that cause and effect is kind of a crock of shit. the world is rhizomatous and we can't ever "explain" anything truly and that owns. we've just fluked into a language which can get pretty close to describing the terrifyingly, bewilderingly incomprehensible interconnectedness of absolutely everything. that in itself is extremely sick. and the fact that we have been able to do that at all blows my mind. but the fact that everything causes everything else and you can't understand anything, really, is just rly cool and liberating for me and fills me w a perpetual sense of wonder. like how the fuck does anything work? how do these things work and we don't know how they do but they do? how come logic just goes and dies in a corner sometimes, no wait, p much all of the time? it's all a spectrum again, you can just get closer to or further away from an 'understanding' but trying to reach it in its totality is impossible and point less but that's great because it allows for such a ridiculous plurality of everything. that's what i love, that's what love is, tiny differences and uniquenesses that constantly differentiate everything from everything else but yet you can't do that but contradiction is just inherent so just go with it, just go with it, the world is fucking cool and dumb and will take you where it will, just let the river carry you
maybe this is just because i feel that more or less everything is inherently beautiful. i don't know why. maybe im lucky. maybe its just a sign that there is something even more wrong with me than the people who hate everything. i mean look at the world, hating everything seems logical. logical? hhahahaha. it's such a beautiful day outside
i remember when i was in high school they played an instrumental version of "____ in paris" and they said that it was "friends in paris" and i laughed a lot because the announcer dude was black and he said it with this straight face and just a little twinkle in his eye and it was the greatest thing
I know this is treading the "white people making fun of white people" line, but Watsky's version of "Ni**as in Paris" is the worst thing he has ever done. Not because the song is bad, but because of the astonishing lack of self-awareness.
Then again he once rapped about being descended from a slave owner over a sample of "Party in the U.S.A." so idk.
Anyway I feel like subbing in some other word with the obligatory nod-and-wink is kinda condescending. S'why a lot of people have problems with stuff like eg. Ed Sheeran covering "Trap Queen".
i usually agree but with a black dude doing it because he was doing schoolwide announcements it ended up actually being funny imo
when white people do it it's just obnoxious
I'm pretty okay with white people using nigga when talking about its usage by another person, but not when it's said out of its own volition. I'd be more okay with a white person saying "Niggas in Paris" than them singing along with the song and saying it then. Not sure why.
I feel like if you have to discuss the use of nigger, you might as well use the actual word instead of pussyfooting around it. That said, this is just this n-word's opinion on the matter and that doesn't apply to the usage of the word around other n-words who may feel differently.

that's not wrong. maybe my negativity is just cos me yeah
Man is a most complex simple creature: see what he weaves, and how base his reasons for doing so.
Yarrun, he didn't sing 'Niggas in Paris'. He sang 'Ninjas In Paris', and the song itself doesn't even have any mention of the shinobi. He sang a lot about how he's white and Jewish and middle-class.
I like it, but I shovel shit in my mouth on a regular basis, so its quality is not something known to me.

My apologies. I think I wrote most of that when I was half asleep. I was more referring to a theoretical situation where a white guy at Naney's school was reading that off.
Listening to Watsky's version, not self-aware is definitely a word for it. Trite, even. Still not bad because it's Watsky and the man's technically proficient, but not in good taste, I suppose.

I really don't understand why people let themselves get into a moral outrage over shoplifting blogs.
I don't know, I don't really have any sympathy for an exploitative multinational corporation just because some bored teenagers stole merchandise from them.

I ate cheese today.
What came after
Alice in Chains are also pretty decent.
I can’t stand the Smashing Pumpkins, though.
