The ‘double-date’ dilemma
Can someone PLEASE tell what’s the deal with the ‘double date’? What drives a human being to think: “Hey, we’re having such a good time together. You know what would make it even better? Throwing one of our friends and their partner into the mix. Doesn’t it sound like a great idea, babe?!” And of…

Travel and moving checklist
Sent an email to cancel my lease —> no reply for three days and counting. Don’t have a specific day to leave my old apartment, even though the new lease starts the 1st of next month. Property management groups are the devil (I said that before, right?) Need to do laundry and have 100% of…

A glimpse of incoming good news
Gonna keep it short tonight, and just give you an update on my personal life. T-minus 6 days for my trip to the Caribbean. Crystal clear waters, beach lounging, exquisite dishes, and escaping the midwest winter with 85F degree weather awaits! T-minus 15 days for my move to a new apartment (Oh, I never told…

How come…
How come I get sleepy during the early evening from 5pm-8pm, but then get this immense amount of energy around 11pm, lasting easily till 1am-2am? How come I eat way more when I’m tasting and snacking different things, instead of a big main dish with the necessary nutrients? How come I can read Twitter for…

The artist’s only responsibility
I’ll be brief and direct ‘cause this is a hot one for me. Artistic creators don’t owe anything to the fans. Their responsibility is to transform a thought or vision into a concrete object (or at least witnessable for even an instant), bring to life an abstract idea, or just simply become a vessel to…

Looking for new apartments, WHAT A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE!
Real estate property management groups are the devil, and their demonic claws are reaching every decent, up and coming or already developed and gentrified areas. There’s always A guy, A family, A group that buys (and keeps buying) properties. Then they get ‘remodeled superficially’ (some new countertops, a fridge, maybe even cabinets), and boom, rent…

A very *cerealus case of writer’s block
— Ok, class, that’ll be all for today. Have a great weekend. Please stay safe. I want to see you all at 100% capacity on Monday to discuss your midterm papers. (You can hear the rustling from the notebooks closing, people getting up, their bags hitting everything around and seats moving as they exit the…

The Soulless Meta-Matrix Resurrected (spoiler free)
Finally watched The Matrix Resurrections, the 4th installment of the Matrix series, directed by only one of the Wachowski sisters (Lana). Saw the past three movies with one day in between each other last week. Then waited a full week to watch the new one (wanted to refresh the feel and story, without actually comparing…

The inevitability of your next argument
The conversation began with “How was your day? Mine was very complicated.” It ended a few minutes later with “That’s the problem with you. You never want to know anything about me.”What was said in between were apathetic murmurs and indirect attacks without any kindhearted purpose. The time bomb that just exploded had no way…

NASA hires theologians to prepare humanity for alien contact, AYYLMAO!
A pandemic that came from having sex with pangolins and eating mutated bats, worldwide economic crises caused by disproportionate wealth and disaster capitalism, the meta verse launch, NFTs valued at millions of dollars… What a time to be alive! And 2022 looks even more fucked up than the past two years. “He who is afraid…
