Wishing for my death or a World War. Either will do. Because FML or this world.

  • Melina had hopes on Miquella. Ranni had hopes on the stars. Each of the holder of an Elden Ring shard had a vision. Yet that was the precise reason for the current situation. Sure, their heart might have been in the right place, their hopes might have been just, but their methods were not. Hence, the lack of hope for regular denizens of that world.

  • Elden Ring is the world that is entirely devoid of hope, where many golden eras are all long past like millennia ago. There maybe another golden era coming, but it could just be a gilded age.

  • This just makes me sad. How can science advance, if we gatekeep one half of human population? In my academic career I have consistently found women to be smarter and better than men. Yet, these misogynistic ideas seem to persist. We deserve better than old farts with even older bias heading the institutions that make up our society.

  • Mocha and me are going to be best friends.

  • Her Name's Nicole.

  • Sometimes a moose is better than muse.

  • Isn't that the saddest thing? Imagine being motivated by hatred. Feels like such a shitty thing to live for.

  • More often than not, MAGA tend to stab themselves in the back. They just don't have the self-awareness for it.

  • Too bad that the royal family is alive and kicking.

  • This. No one should be called like this.

  • Yes, but that is the problem of politicians. Regular people like you or me can safely ignore public opinion. Because we know how dumb public is.

  • That comes from dishonest politicians and media, who twist things for their benefit. They frame certain acts like they are coming for your 2 chickens, when in reality, they are coming for a rich fucks' 100000 chickens. Such people have a vested interest in fooling the people with 2 chickens. Hence, they campaign by equating such measures with 'scary' words like 'communism'. Propaganda works. These kinds of tricks are bread and butter of advertising industry. So why not politicians and media?

  • What I mean is taking the opinion of the public seriously. I mean, people believe in a lot of weird things and that includes me. As an example, lot of people are anti-vaxxers, that doesn't actually make vaccines dangerous. Should their opinion matter? If so, how much?

    I think the quote is meant to consider that sometimes we must ignore public opinion and do what is right. But, I agree some nuance could be lost. But sadly, the quote has no context because it is from a list of quotes Oscar Wilde wrote. Maybe, we should supply our own nuance.?

  • I always keep saying " You cannot plan your way out of a system built on broken fundamentals." Microservices has it's use case, but not every web app needs to be one. Too many buzzwords floating around in tech, that promise things that cannot be delivered.

  • "Public opinion exists only where there are no ideas."- Oscar Wilde.

    I think public opinion is overrated. Too many fools in the public. Just look at MAGA idiots in US.

  • So, I am not having sex at all. And failing to find a job. Does this mean I have failed?

    Edit:I have failed in starting a communist revolution too. Hence, failing to find a job.

  • How can I achieve this kind of notoriety? I don't wanna kill anyone though. Or steal from anyone or hurt anyone.

  • I am currently playing Persona 5 Royal. Not exactly light hearted, but somehow apt.

  • Another thing I should thank you for is that there are no false comforts in your words. I hate people who say "things will be better tomorrow" or something. At least you are not lying about how things are going to be in future.
