Its been quite nice here lately. After I finish here, I will go out for a quick walk and then plop my ass down in my beloved Cabela's lawnchair that I use for a reading/watching seat and rot my brain watching the NFL playoff's. Life is pretty damn good. I have a couple of Ranier's in the fridge and after 13:00, I will consume them and around 16:00 I will pimp out a frozen pizza with extra topping and cheese and consume the same.
I spent this morning shamelessly playing some World of Warcraft (Classic of course) and rotting my brain while consuming coffee. I do this instead of reading the deliberately misleading lines of text that are offered to me via the news "aggregators" that I follow.
Look, this kind of thing is all that most people care about. I am at one with "most people". I have every intention of ignoring calls for justice. I have no intention to pursue any kind of activity that others have designated "meaningful". I am going to alternate between a beautiful blue sky day and watching the choreographed violence that was a part of my life for 8+ years and eat unhealthy food and drink some cheap American lager.
Fuck you if you don't like it.

The expectation for everyone to be some sort of revolutionary is a sentiment that only seems to exist online, as far as I can tell, with the young and sometimes delusional. On its face, this seems like a good ideal, but considering what I'll call our "post-truth" information world, who's to know that one's revolution is even based on fact? There is so much fiction around us, on all sides.
However, in your personal life, it is good to stick to your ideals, within your sphere of influence, although I cannot tell you exactly why this is true, it just seems intuitively true; but to assume these personal ideals apply to everyone else and therefore need be forced on others is not wisdom, it is the opposite.
Although, I do not fault revolutionaries; in most case, I respect them for their conviction.
