Life represents one of the most intricate and fascinating facets of our reality. Since the age of 17, I've been deeply immersed in the study of applied mathematics, a journey I undertook independently. This scientific pursuit, however, pales in comparison to my profound admiration for life on Earth, particularly sentient existence. The human mind stands out in its complexity and abstraction, yet it remains inextricably linked to our planet. Our cellular makeup, a tapestry woven through a long history, narrates the expansive saga of our presence on Earth. In contemporary times, the normalization of the human experience on this planet is intriguing. Perhaps this trend stems from a gradual decline in superstition, or it might signal the realization of a reality once foretold by prophets—a future condition of mankind.
In our society, the human essence has become a normalized concept, often stripped of its nuanced nature. We no longer view each individual as a distinct embodiment of humanity's present and future. Instead, we categorize our fellow humans, letting faceless corporations and governing bodies reduce our identities to mere names and numbers. This detachment from our ancestral roots has led us to conform to the rigid norms of modern society. Such normalization amounts to a desensitization of the human experience, fostering a generation whose survival hinges on selfishness and conformity. Raised under governments that wield war machines and commit acts beyond the mere taking of lives, we witness a systematic categorization of people by race, class, and geographic location. This prevailing scenario necessitates a profound transformation. We must shift towards self-governance, prioritizing family, and personal fulfillment over mere occupational achievement. Embracing our true human desires for knowledge, science, and nonviolence is pivotal in breaking free from this cycle of normalization and rediscovering our individual and collective essence.
people have got to stop overusing existential/cosmic horror when it comes to animals just Experiencing Things
like flies know what a human is. they know they are very small and other animals are very large. they've lived around megafauna as long as there have been flies. having animals the size of mountains to them is just normal.
love when you can ask the Narrator why the Princess is a Princess and he's like 'well i uhhhh YOU did that. maybe it's because uh... something something about her being above you... but still approachable... look i don't want to analyze or anthropomorphize your--' my guy. i am a primal being of Order and Eternity and Shaping. You're the one who convinced me I was some dude and were quite willing to take credit for shaping my view on the world through narration five seconds ago. Are you gonna look me in the eye and tell me the desire to interpret something worthy of adoration and more powerful than me as a dommy princess is written in the very nature of the universe or are you going to show me your browser history like a man
something happening on a mission, something personal that has soap spiralling; panic and rage making him reckless, thoughtless, and ghost has to draw the line
“you’re compromised johnny; you know what that means?”
“you’re not pulling me out,” soap immediately snarls. he turns on him and ghost barely recognises him; venomous fear turning his eyes to unyielding ice. "you're not sidelining me; i need to be in this-!"
but ghost has never been afraid of venom; spat or dripped straight from bared fangs.
he snakes out a hand grip the back of his neck, jerking him in a rough shake. "if you can't think, you can't be a soldier," he growls and he flinches like he's been struck.
his lips quiver as they twist in a sneer and he wrenches, trying to free himself of his hold.
ghost doesn't let him.
"it means you give your body to me because your head ain't fucking attached to it anymore."
soap stills, body trembling beneath his hand as he sucks in shaking breaths.
he tightens his grip, pulling him closer and digs his forehead hard into his. “it means you give yourself to me so i can have the weapon that you are and use you the way you're meant to be used."
the ice in soap's eyes fractures.
ghost’s voice drops to a whisper, spoken only to johnny, not this facade of vengeance and pain, and wills it to reach him through the glaciers.
“so i can keep you safe ‘til it’s done and i can bring you back.”
and dean winchester thought he was unlovable and didnt deserve happiness he hated himself and thought eveyone would eventually leave him and then a literal fucking angel fell in love with him. like loved him more than anything else in the world.
The Pharisees, ever vigilant, observed Jesus and His disciples closely, seeking opportunities to accuse them of transgressing Roman and Judaic laws, in order to have Jesus, under the law, detained and killed. The irony of their scrutiny becomes apparent against the backdrop of Jesus's identity and claims about Himself. Remarkably, when the matter of Roman tax arose—a tax Jesus initially neglected—He miraculously produced a coin to settle the debt, much to the chagrin of the Pharisees. This group, who had exploited the tax as a means to subordinate the Jewish populace under Roman authority, found themselves outmaneuvered by an act that both fulfilled the obligation and subtly subverted their authority.
Moreover, Jesus and His followers faced accusations of overindulgence in wine and performing acts of kindness on the Sabbath, Jesus walking with criminals and sex workers, which the Pharisees deemed unlawful. Despite these charges, Jesus's followers upheld His sinless nature. This historical tension casts a peculiar light on the posture of some modern Christians who endorse legal frameworks reminiscent of those contributing to Jesus's crucifixion. This suggests a disconnection from the essence of Jesus's teachings and the conduct of His early disciples.
Many contemporary believers, particularly in America, seem to hold the notion that human-made laws carry divine endorsement. Yet, scriptural narratives forewarn that all earthly nations will be subject to complete destruction. God, as the scriptures reveal, will judge humanity not by a standard of grace and mercy—which was often rejected—but by the very laws humans stringently applied to others. The divine judgment, it is implied, will mirror the severity with which individuals—particularly those in power—judged the less fortunate, even desiring extrajudicial execution for minor infractions. Thus, the narrative calls into a sharp focus the need for a reevaluation of the legalistic rigor in favor of the grace and mercy.
Just a sketch before I sleep! Took this opportunity to study Julian Kostov's face and I think I'm getting the hang of it 👌
