I've come to the conclusion that I'm too "German" to be cool. The cool ones think with their heads. I think with my heart. I'm not going to let it bother me, anymore. I can stop with the coffee any time.

Facts and lies -- all can be twisted to suit a person's agenda. :twisted:

It is one thing to discern one truth from countless lies and fiction.
It is another to find all angles of the story with complete information and without bias, without having to color it.

So yes.
It is entirely possible to encourage ignorance or enable foolishness by telling the truth -- just pick the right audience.

It is entirely possible to state facts with the intent to mislead, deceive, or even deny truth. :lol: Just pick the context and the agenda.



Thus why, to me, a name is just a name. A word is just a word.
A sentence is just an arranged set of words with rules. Etc. How language is limiting and would never do justice.

As much as I hoard terms...
One must've realize at some point that, fundamentally speaking all written ideas are hearsay. :lol:
Whether as any expresses it and how any receives it.

If people want to waste their year 11 bullying autistic kids, smoking, getting knocked up and trying to be 'cool', they shouldn't be upset when others turn around and say 'thank you' at being called 'pretentious' for knowing stuff.

Some of us tried to actually study in class...

I'm so excited that I'm getting a new computer and that it's a MacBook Air. I ordered it online yesterday and I can't wait for it to arrive next week (hopefully) :D

Objectification isn't just noticing when people are sexy.

People might want to be sexy & work on it. And there's active ways to be sexy.

Objectification is treating people as objects.

Included within that is studying whole groups like they can't read what you're doing. Like your audience is all your own demographic.

That kind of thing is dehumanising.

It's what we do to lab rats and AI. In fact, there's loads of sci fi stuff where AI gains consciousness & suddenly doing that to AI becomes problematic.

I started the day out with tea, instead of coffee. I've decided to challenge myself by doing another good thing for myself. I asked myself in which other ways can I do good for myself today. I came up with the idea of sweeping and mopping, so that's what I did.

Thinking of buying a punching bag, but there's no room for it.

I had no idea that governments would want to rape their citizens.

Making a very sturdy notebook specifically fit in my bag.

One I can fill erroneous drawings practice with and a lot of reminders. :lol:


Already got most of the materials.
I'll just find a way to buy a decent glue on my way home...

can't say a thing, it would go so wrong
the h@ck, we? obviously someone, starving the daughter that works so hard, didn't know the 'days on facebook' was working hard, you learn everyday isn't it
a sea of unspeakables gives an ocean of misunderstanding, how does that work?
speak the truth, some say, bettter take advice in a saltmine, avoid drama is a better? suggestion?

I hate having to explain myself to people that I have Aspergers. Lacking social/communication skills makes life frustrating and difficult. I hope for a cure to Autism/Aspergers so that millions of us sufferers of Autism can one day live a normal life.

When you are giving a diagnosis of Autism the nightmare does not end, the nightmare continues. Only a cure for Autism can remove the social, communication and psychological issues that comes with Autism. Finding employment and fitting into social groups would be a lot easier if I was a normal person instead of suffering from Autism.
