I’ve reached a point where I think if both the left and right tell you are wrong, you might just as well have arrived at the correct idea (usually, not always).

That’s true, I just thought I had somehow caused it and that took a long time for me to grow out of that idea.

I was born on 1993-09-10 (not in the US).

Imagine enjoying your eighth birthday party, then less than 48 hours later, you saw the North Tower collapse through live TV.

Imagine visiting the Kennedy Space Center in December 2002 and you saw Columbia sitting on the launch pad.

Imagine looking forward to your 32nd birthday, then on the day itself, the internet is abuzz because Charlie Kirk was shot.

Matsuura Kanan (Love Live) | Right

Kuya Kuya (Nu: Carnival) | Big brother/School upperclassman

Kita Kita (Bocchi the Rock, Kita Ikuyo’s preferred full name) | I see you

Okumura Rin (Blue Exorcist) | Sounds a lot like “Okay, it’s also cheap”

I’m consciously trying to be done with political discourse and just talk about it to clarify where I stand on things or to learn something new.

It’s either a circlejerk (with your allies) or a five minutes of hate (towards your enemies) online and I have better things to spend my time. There’s only so much that I can control. I’d rather focus on that.
