Provoke the blade and suffer its sting 🗡️
my first year of high school is fucking me uppp so here’s some fluff to cope. never kill yourself
i like working at plant store. sometimes you ring up someone and there's a slug on their plant and so you're like "Oh haha you've got a friend there let me get that for you" and you put the slug on your hand for safekeeping but then its really busy and you dont have time to take the slug outside before the next customer in line so you just have a slug chilling on your hand for 15 minutes. really makes you feel at peace with nature. also it means sometimes i get to say my favorite line which is "would you like this free slug with your purchase"
@holyknuckled you get it. lterally what are we here on earth for if not to occasionally impose gastropods upon unsuspecting customers. this story is delightful
@holyknuckled like that?
oh? my god???
yeah, Exactly like that
Sorry, I could never be a capitalist, I suffer from “wanting humans to have their basic needs met” disorder, where I care about people who aren’t me.
Someone once asked me if, assuming we got universal healthcare, I would be okay with the rise in “healthcare tourism” where people who are sick come to our country to get their medical bills taken care of and life-saving medical treatment cheaper than in their home countries.
I was just like, yeah thats fine, I’d actually prefer it if 0 people died from preventable causes kept behind a paywall for no reason.
“even the addicts?” yeah dude did i fucking stutter
Also “cheaper than in their home countries” please let me know when you find this mythical country that has higher prices than the US for medical care for foreign visitors.
Gosh, there are so many things which don’t make sense to especially about capitalism and just hierarchical systems in general. We just look at it, think about it, take a devil advocate role, a sceptics role and it just doesn’t make sense, top or bottom it just breeds hurt!? We suppose what we concluded is the one thing about it it is supposed to bring rigidity and regularity? But well reality is not stable, not ridge no wonder a system forced atop an shifting ever changing reality doesn’t work, yet it’s still clung onto somehow, you ask what if things could be different? What if we could move away from the structure of it? And you’ll get back from some, well what about money, work or power system we need those, we’ve always had them, you can’t just not have them. But why?! Why not! If these things are the roots of strife who needs them? If no-one truely gains from them, if the tools don’t work, why use them? Why let them rule us? There is nothing inate about such things, nor anything really, so why enforce them? Because we always have? Because the knowing is comforting? Because the tool themselves have run wild, the system malign spread, the people part of it forgot it were forged? Or did those who thought they had gain from it perpetuated it defended it? Could the only reason it is here, because others are not? That it survived, through simply continuing to exist, like a parasite, a virus?
Sometimes we question whether dreaming of a better existence starts at talking to people, not heading to government for they perpetuate the system so as before they can not change it, no to start at the roots, like asking farmers for their opinions, taking in what they say, their problems, then developing it from there, start at people not the concept of order. Then things truely can change, from the things we have seen at least that appears like how change truely occurs.
Eh sorry for rambling, this is probably a bunch of incoherent nonsense we just started thinking and didn’t stop, so there are probably a load of half baked points we forgot to expand on, we haved revised this we probably won’t but yeah stuff is just annoying us, lol don’t take our rubbish to seriously, we’re just thinking that’s all
Teddy paused near bush line in the Ahuriri Conservation Park when he saw some wildflowers blooming along the trail, he always has time for a flower break.
