i feel like people laugh at this a lot, and i did when i was a kid. but reading this as an adult, this is sort of a touching story about being vulnerable with people you care about. it just happens to be about anal vore too
Caressing the body of a girl with self harm scars is like scanning the barcode of something I stole and later realizing nothing in this world is free as she loudly threatens to kill herself as we sit in my favorite coffeeshop over my reluctance in letting her peg me
“What I like most about read receipts is that it turns lulls in conversation and natural ends to conversations into a state of distrust where your ape brain naturally interprets a non-response as intentional coldness. Similarly I like adding “user is typing […]” to all chat applications to invoke unnecessary anxiety as to your interlocutor’s response. Incorporate this in everything.”
If you need evidence that places have distinct energies that attract specific souls, look how many gay and evil people are attracted to San Francisco, and how everyone who lives there becomes 100X more gay and evil
When I spent 2 days there this year I felt like I was dying
We need a Khmer Rogue for San Francisco. We need a Younger Dryas impact event. This cannot go on any longer. Every single person who lives there must be removed and relocated permanently to a sand quarry labor camp. Population ZERO by TOMORROW. Put a glass dome over this city and cut it off from the outside world and then ELECTROCUTE it. All people living today in San Francisco will be forcibly implanted with a microchip that EXPLODES if they access the internet. Anyone who accesses the internet from San Francisco gets a ten trillion dollar bounty broadcast to the phone of every black teenager in Baltimore. EMP this city at once. Use palantir mass surveillance flock cameras to identify anyone who talks about their startup or work ethic or peptides or event attendance and then kidnap and do experiments on them. Turn these people into ivory. There is not a single soul worth saving. Turn this city into Pompeii. This is a NATIONAL EMERGENCY
“This, incidentally, is almost the whole weakness of Nietzsche, whom some are representing as a bold and strong thinker. No one will deny that he was a poetical and suggestive thinker; but he was quite the reverse of strong. He was not at all bold. He never put his own meaning before himself in bald abstract words: as did Aristotle and Calvin, and even Karl Marx, the hard, fearless men of thought. Nietzsche always escaped a question by a physical metaphor, like a cheery minor poet. He said, ‘beyond good and evil,’ because he had not the courage to say, ‘more good than good and evil,’ or, ‘more evil than good and evil.’ Had he faced his thought without metaphors, he would have seen that it was nonsense. So, when he describes his hero, he does not dare to say, ‘the purer man,’ or ‘the happier man,’ or ‘the sadder man,’for all these are ideas; and ideas are alarming. He says ‘the upper man,’ or ‘over man,’ a physical metaphor from acrobats or alpine climbers. Nietzsche is truly a very timid thinker. He does not really know in the least what sort of man he wants evolution to produce. And if he does not know, certainly the ordinary evolutionists, who talk about things being ‘higher,’ do not know either. Then again, some people fall back on sheer submission and sitting still. Nature is going to do something some day; nobody knows what, and nobody knows when. We have no reason for acting, and no reason for not acting. If anything happens it is right: if anything is prevented it was wrong. Again, some people try to anticipate nature by doing something, by doing anything. Because we may possibly grow wings they cut off their legs. Yet nature may be trying to make them centipedes for all they know.”
