Collateral Murder

i know that this is horrible and all that but i can't genuinely go around moaning about it the same way that everyone else seems to be doing

HOW IS THIS A SURPRISE?

i don't think that the problem is this particular instance but rather the overall situation

how can you blame the guys flying the helicopter

you can barely make anything out on that little black and white screen

for all they knew that camera actually was an rpg

i am by no means condoning this incident

i just think that it's being blown out of proportion compared to the problem of war itself

sleepy eyes

if you have ever read a dense book late at night then you probably know what i mean when i say that my eyes were trying to fall asleep while i was finishing the Symposium

i have discovered the solution to this problem

rub some burt's bees lip balm on your eye lids

it makes a striking difference

it feels sparkly and wakes your eyes up

(thank you Rose)

rationality

why is it that people (including myself) continue to do things that we don't enjoy

both while we are doing them and afterward

one would think that after all the time we've been on this planet we would have found a way to avoid this problem

if you ask me this is solid proof of the irrationality of humans
