Ramble
I get annoyed fairly easily. But depending on what it is, I will try and use that energy in a positive way. Because while snark is fun, ranting is cathartic, to change the world you need help.
So I will always strive to be positive, while aiming for revolution. Those barriers won't tear down without help.

"The World to Come" Review
I was not expecting to like this movie that much. And indeed it started out slow and predictable for the historical romance genre. But there are some very artful moments that are staying with me. I would watch it again. 💔

Alela Diane - Take Us Back
Atop the crags and cliffs the air is thin
So we'll find a mountain path on down the hill
Meet me where the snowmelt flows
It is there, my dear, where we'll begin again
Skipping stones, braiding hair
Last years antlers mark the trail

#Notetoself. It sounds so preachy, but still I'd say, protect yourself from the attraction of abstract, materialistic and/or innate attributes like:
-Body
-Youth
-Intelligence
-Charisma
-Wealth
-Position
Instead, try to look at the ones that are (or can be) actually chosen by their holder:
-Solidarity
-Compassion
-Having a good heart
-Doing less harm (if harm is unavoidable)
That'll make it a better ride for everyone...

So this movie is amazing. South Korean cinema is the best for horror. I heard there is a sequel that just came out called Peninsula, but I am afraid it won't match the perfection of Train to Busan.

Some jackass from an Alt-Right site at gitmo.life just tried to follow me. I really don't get the motivation...must be for the "lulz".
Interestingly, the domain was registered via Epik which is a registrar managed by white nationalist scumbag, Rob Monster.

The Misskey instance gitmo.life looks a little suspicious. Getting lots of far-right followers.
You thought Trump was bad, just wait until Elon Musk runs for president with Kanye West as his running mate. No joke.
Musk used Twitter to invite Russian President Vladimir Putin to join him for a chat on #Clubhouse, saying "It would be a great honor to talk to you."

How Do Dating Apps Use My Data? A Video Explainer

Can we all agree that advertising, AI, bitcoin and the stock market are just Ponzi schemes trading in illusions? Businesses that produce physical products and needed services (like food and medicine) are not skyrocketing during a global crisis. This is not going to end well.
