the OG of the vicious burn

Diógenes said you couldn’t spit anywhere but in the face of a rich man because once this rich dude invited him into his house and literally told him you can’t spit on anything that touches the floor so Diógenes spit in this guys face

here is a very good painting of Diógenes in his tub that i had the good fortune of actually seeing earlier this year

I love that Diogenes is making a comeback in the twenty-first century.

I’m not digging this bury your feelings stuff that the Jedi are all about. That seems unhealthy.

I have written extensively about this.

I going to need to read it.

ooooookay, but I wasn’t kidding when I used the word ‘extensive’.

And if you’re looking for EVEN MORE, the talented pomegrenadier also has strong, well founded opinions on the subject 

HeLLO there, deliciously salty new reading material c:. My Jedi-critical tag is here, with this post being my sort-of-manifesto on the subject.

weekly reminder that marco was probably the most important person in jeans life- a person who encouraged and believed in him- and he is dead. sometimes I wonder how often jean thinks about marco, and then it occurred to me it’s been like 11 episodes since Marcos death, and he is still jean’s sole motivation for moving forward. jean frequently questions his own abilities, to the point where it’s obvious that he does have a severe lack of self esteem and purpose. but marco answered jean’s questions as they came, reassuring him - “you gave the right orders. That’s why I could jump, and it’s why I’m alive.” honestly, there’s no greater solace than what marco gave jean. and now, even after death, marco is still answering jean’s questions. Or rather, he is the answer.

One reason I like baby birds is that they come out of the gate already looking like they’ve seen the worst the world has to offer.  It’s like they get the horror of existence out of the way early and -then- spend all their time flying around looking pretty and not giving a fuck, which is kind of the opposite of the way we do it.

This guy is so young but he looks like a grizzled old drunk.  He looks like the first thing he ever had to do in the world was fight his way out of an egg before he knew how any of his muscles worked.  I love it.

Huh, I like that idea..

I need bird philosophy in my life.

I was asked my opinion on fame.  A good question, and one I’m sure you guys are interested in, so I’ll sketch out the details.  Fame and infamy are both recognition.  Recognition of something, an idea, a person, a place, a thing, serves a purpose to humans, whether we know it or not. 

By sharing a memory with someone, in this case I’ll use the MS paint adventure Homestuck, you include yourself into a group.  Two groups are created through the idea of Homestuck, the group of people who like the game, and those who don’t.  What Homestuck does, through this mechanism, is create cohesion, agency among people, grouping them together, allowing them to get along with eachother but also disagree with the opposing side. 

This force, the creation of agency among humans, is the most powerful in the symbolic world.  It breathes love and hate into people.  Fame and infamy (recognition to be more encompassing) is the most powerful thing in the human realm of existence and will inevitably be the thing that undoes us as Hominids, or brings us together to end global strife.  Whether you hate me or love me, what I serve to do as a symbol of culture is bring you together.  And so you can call me whatever you want, as long as it brings you closer to other people, than I have succeeded. 

in other words………Haters gonna hate.  :)

Profound.
