"Apathy is one of the grat tolls of the ruling class."
This feels like a spot of good news www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...
Authoritarians lean into their own self-flanderization; a platonic ideal is consistent but not rational. People take a primal pleasure in positive, algorythmic reinforcement. Scraping ourselves hollow, we starve on the fullness of the echo that now comprises not being but subsisting.
@andrewmarkhenry.bsky.social Do you have a take on how Star Trek: Deep Space Nine portrays the Bajoran religion & ritual? (Allowing for the metaphoric conceit that a planet would have only one religion, which is of course absurd).

It would take a million years of evolution – or a total reversal in the condition of the world – for your pain to end.
The majority asks for bread but the masses are only afforded circuses.

No. This is somewhere to be. This is all you have, but it's still something. Streets and sodium lights. The sky, the world. You're still alive.

It is really quite impossible to say anything with absolute precision, unless that thing is so abstracted from the real world as to not represent any real thing.”
“The real problem in speech is not precise language. The problem is clear language. The desire is to have the idea clearly communicated to the other person. It is only necessary to be precise when there is some doubt as to the meaning of a phrase...

FWIW: I try to experience as many methods of tattoo as possible - and I say drop the text. I find the impact stronger without the word and you can alway add 'Sin' later if you change your mind. Much harder to remove if you change your mind. After you have lived with your choice for a while, maybe:

A person recently convicted of paying for sex with a trafficked minor was put in charge of a children's physical health program. There's got to be a reason Trump is normalizing this like it's on par with a speeding ticket.

Are all paradoxes just a category error, conflacting logical truth (intention) with empirical causality (extension) - predicates and existants? Perfect and imperfect infinities.

“The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to be born: now is the time of monsters.”
"Taking the whole field of chance events no generalizations about them are possible (consider e.g. infectious diseases, dactyls in hexameters, deaths from horse kicks, births of great men)."
“Choosing to maximize utility is a moral decision which puts utility before justice and equality... this is quite unfair except when all the people are quite well off. For the rich man, it makes little difference how the last sixpence in his pocket is spent.”

“Wars and revolutions do not come out of a clear sky, and they are not caused by arbitrary acts of individual personalities... Wars originate in the acceleration of the pace and the increased tension in economic life, in the heightened economic struggle for markets and raw materials...”

As the midnight approaches the Southern Cross begins to bend, and the whirling worlds change their places, and with starry finger-points the Almighty marks the passage of Time upon the dial of the universe; and though no bell may beat the glad tidings,
I can see the dawn of a better day of humanity. The people are awakening. In due course of time they will come into their own. When the mariner, sailing over tropic seas, looks for relief from his weary watch, turns his eyes toward the Southern Cross, burning luridly above the tempest-vexed ocean.
Your honor, I ask no mercy, I plead for no immunity. I realize that finally the right must prevail. I never more fully comprehended than now the great struggle between the powers of greed on the one hand and upon the other the rising hosts of freedom.

What would be the funniest stereotypes about South Koreans I can make up and start spreading? I feel like there has to be something way funnier than just saying, "It smells like rotten vegetables," every time a family insistently refuses eye contact. Maybe like, "Shouldn't they be doing homework?".
A question for Korean comrades: Living in the third world, one meets people of all sorts of nationalities, ethnicities, and languages. These days, immigrant labourers from South Korea are the most isolationist - to the point of pretending to not see humans that are their neighbors.

Our discourse should at least be honest about the normalization of marital rape in America. We all have access to the timeline. We know when Peaches Browning and Consuelo Vanderbilt lived, and it's a far cry from Natalie Imbruglia's "Torn".
