I lost it at " 🥰"

But as someone with little understanding of the language I’m glad I read this from you and the OC

“German Duck People” is hilarious. Either the name of a cult or a band.

Or maybe Kurtzgesagt.

That narrator is so calming when he talks about ways we can all spontaneously die off.

To add on: questioning and reflecting on your behaviors is the first step.

I’m definitely guilty of some of this too and being more mindful of it has been… a process… that isn’t easy but helps me a lot.

You were literally talking about a tongue in cheek Darwin effect/Darwin Awards the entire time. Social Darwinism is a line of thought meant to apply racist misunderstandings of Darwin’s ideas to humans.

Lol I think you mean Darwin Awards. Social Darwinism is a punk band from the west coast racist ideology from the 1800s

Adventure Time

You’ve never encountered photojournalism?! I know they are cutting budgets for photographers but that seems sad to me.

EDIT: i present to you: the duality of humanity.

“OMG Ellen Ripley watch out the orange monster! It’s on your HEAD!”

Maybe that gives her the powers?

This is where the “what if you could change your direction in the multiverse” aspect dies for me: my kids. I wouldn’t trade them for any better choices on my end.

That said I’d totally have brushed my teeth more when I was younger. That can’t have ripple effects can it? (Twilight zone music intensifies)

Regarding music: the concerts I missed out in haunt me!

You seem pretty similar to how I was in school. My way of revisiting that is understanding it now that I’m a teacher. I think it makes me way more effective. Not perfect but able to connect and engage students more as well as encourage them to not fear being challenged.

I skimmed over ally and got super excited for a second.

touches nose not it!
