Can we make a note that 2025 was the year I, at almost 40, lost my belief that there's something good in everyone.
Literally everyone rich and/or powerful is an irredeemable, evil sack of shit, and they were only waiting for a world where they could afford to stop pretending.

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

Weird, how 80% of people in Switzerland expect to inherit 50+ million.
...or are a percentage of them simply that much into being bullied by the super rich 🫠

Well, it took close to two years, but I've read the entire Realm of the Elderlings saga out loud for my favourite person. Yes. All 10'000 or so pages.
And I think I stopped reading and started narrating about 1400 pages in, so there's progress I guess.

What stage of adulthood is it when you get home from work at midnight, haven't had time to sit down or eat in a 12 hour shift, and then make yourself a salad?
Do I get, like, a sticker in my assignment book or something now?

Ist doch ganz einfach: seit etwa 8 Jahren reise ich immer Ende Oktober beruflich ins Ausland. Auf den Fotos von vor 8 Jahren hab ich Winterjacke und Ohrwärmer an, heute vereise ich zu der Zeit für mehrere Tage ins Ausland und denke nicht mal dran, eine Jacke einzupacken.
Kein Stress, Leute, aber die 3 heißesten September, die seit 200 Jahren gemessen wurden, waren: 2023, 2024, 2025. #Klimakrise

I'm going to knit a poncho in rainbow colours for my favourite person!
I've got two more tops to spin, but I'm so eager to start knitting with this I had to begin plying the purples and blues 😅🧶

I had the most amazing history teacher in grades 10 to 12, whose biggest priority was to educate us on fascism.
They made sure to drive home the role of the passive majority.
I'm still completely unable to process the absolute madness of the masses who refuse to acknowledge that this is not normal.

OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

Ah yes, I too would look at a near mint Chains of Mephistopheles and go "Time to take a fine liner to that!"
(It was a bargain, and I'm pretty confident I can restore it)

Der Faschismus ist zurück, weil der Kapitalismus Panik bekommt.
Nichts macht den Kapitalisten mehr Angst, als eine pluralistische, gebildete Gesellschaft, die sich nicht ordnungsgemäß auspressen lässt.
Der Kampf gegen links ist der Kampf gegen ArbeitnehmerInnen.

Diese Kirk-Meinungsartikel überall zeigen so ein stumpfes Bild von Politik. Fokus nur auf Form, null auf Inhalt.
Hauptsache man debattiert, dann ist das demokratisch und gut. Was die Inhalte sind, ist egal.
Menschenverachtung scheint für diese Autor:innen ok, solange sie anständig vorgetragen wird

There's an Asian street food festival in town, and even though they're supposed to serve the food in re-usable dishes with a deposit, every single vendor I talked to was happy to put my food in a tupperware for me to take home to my partner who can't currently go out.
That was really nice today.

I'm currently (re-)reading the #Animorphs series, and isn't it weird that the part that requires the most suspension of disbelief for me is how a dark corner and no other people in sight is enough to grant them privacy 🫣
...oh, and go read the books, they're great.
