Why do they always ask if I've "done any voluntary work or study?"

How would that affect my benefits?

Contemplating commandeering a fork lift truck from the warehouse section of a DIY store next time I roll on by pretending to innocently peruse the enlightening seemingly unlimited forms of light fixtures and seeing how many shelves I can ram down and how many forks I find in the clattering crescendo, I don't know if they sell utensils but I wouldn't put it past them, you can do more with a fork than they tell you.

^Don't do that. They're terribly annoying to steer anyway.

Anyways I'm just pondering the necessity of asymmetry & non-organization as it informs the stability of the observable universe. Without all the madness & chaos, there might not even be tangible matter in existence for us to consist of.

Given that people are made of real stardust, I hope we can all fully respect those grand origins rather than just playing into the same ongoing explosion. That's why I'm here, for the sanity checks I suppose.

Roger is currently number three in the ATP tennis rankings-behind Nadal and Murray!

On a more serious note, the attacks in Barcelona are very much on my mind. I'm not Spanish/Catalan, but I have a special interest in that part of the world. My heart goes out to the people of Barcelona today.

Is there a law that says that you have to go to the wedding?

Whose wedding is it ?

What is your function, best man?

Weddings, funerals, graduations. Long boring social rituals. I tend to steer clear of them

Did not even go to my junior high school graduation

Especially events involving dressing up and sitting still for hours. In large crowded rooms. While someone shares enlightening speeches

Those events make me feel awkward and left out

More than usual

Malala, the seventeen year old Nobel Prize winner, had a book written about her

Malala sounds brave, but you can't measure bravery

Malala is brave and I am cowardly

Everyone has good and bad traits

Someone could act brave at one minute and cowardly the next

Bravery does not always get rewarded

Infantrymen that sacrifice their lives for their country do not all get rewards

And what is so great about a Purple Heart? Some infantrymen's heroic and courageous actions get them profound physical injuries. The injuries take a lot of time and pain to interact with

Dichotomous thinking

Precious lil"people" act like everything and everyone is either completely good or bad

Simple and easy

But nobody is completely good or completely bad

It is because it es easy to idolize someone that you like. Socially or romantically.

And it is easy to demonize someone you do not like

But it is also easy to like someone similar to you

And AS is in the minority

And LGBT is also the minority

So it is easy for the majority to misunderstand the minority

Especially when the majority has authority and power
