My personal opinion on charlie kirks death.

 My sister said that she thinks its dumb people are mad at people for celebrating charlie kirks death because "objectively, removing a negative thing from the world makes it a better place"

But for one thing, as far as we know, right and wrong cant be objective.

Also, objectively we cant calculate whether more negativity was removed by charlie kirk dying than was added by the act and promotion of gun violance.

So the world could be worse off anyway, and therefore that was just an invalid argument in my opinion.

But i personally did not fucking like charlie kirk.

I just think it was not "objectively" right to kill him.

Not that its objectively wrong either.

Just that we cant measure its impact as well as some of us might like to believe.

Though i suppose that applies to almost every action.

But i appreciate that were talking about it. These conversations are important to have.

Dont be an asshole in public if you dont wanna risk extra exposure to more people who will disagree with your statements, and because of the wider range of people, a higher chance of someone whos willing to act on their disagreement with violence disagreeing with your point.

Im pretty sure if you spend all day shuffling words around like i do, that should make sense.

Why i dont believe in science

Idgaf what weve "proven", people dont get to tell me what to believe. because i feel like everyone acts like youre an idiot for believing in astrology, and while, yeah, im sure its full of bullshit, their version isnt any better. I dont, for a second, believe in the shit other earthlings who like just now got to earths moon, tell me about other planets and stars lightyears away. Like, bitch have you ever been to that planet? No. So then how can you tell me what gravitys like there? How do you know its made of this element we have on earth just from what it looks like when, for all we know, if you actually get close it could literally be trillions of microscopic little bugs forming that whole planet? It could have entirely different properties and be an entirely different thing we as born and raised earthlings couldnt begin to comprehend. But we just assume we know, because scientists tell us, when all theyre really telling us is their best guess, which can not be that accurat...

6 strings and a pick

Sooo, a while back i started learning guitar. I may only know like 15 basic chords and like three barre chords, and dont remember any if the songs ive learned, but does it really matter? I mean, the only reason i still use my guitar is to make loud noise at this point and i can do that whether it sounds good or not. I mean i do. A lot. Its basically a fidgit toy at this point. But then again its also my unatainable life goal to be in a garage band. The problem with that is i dont like people, public performance, or own decent instruments except for the acoustic guitar i bought in fourth grade after saving up for like a year.  My rich grandpa gave us each like 100 bucks every christmas, plus my grandma, grandpa, dad, mom, and maybe my aunt but i cant remember, each gave me between 10 and 20 dollars for my birthday a few months later, and i scammed the fuck out of my siblings by buying snacks with the ebt card and selling them back so they didnt have to walk to the store, so it wasnt...

Little Wins

 Today, i contemplated taking a risk for once. Didnt take any. Just thought about it. I couldnt think of any to take. I was at home all day, i tried to start a fire with my brother out of sticks bc hes trying to learn how to survive in the wild which got me thinking about the apocolypse. Particularly a zombie apocolypse because i watch way too much tv. Ive decided i think rich people who can afford good security and resources would survive for a minute until electricity was no longer a given, and money became worthless, and they wouldnt have the survival skills beyond that. Probably hunters, and farmers, people who know how to live off the land and own guns would survive the longest. People in the medical industry, who have access to medicine and tranquilizers and speed (yknow, for the night shifts) might be able to last a while. I think people who live in cities wouldnt last long on average because high population, and few natural resources just dont seem like a good combination t...
