"Trump says 'just words, folks.' It's his accusation and his defence. Words don't matter. Facts don't matter. If they don't, we're all lost."

That was JK Rowling's response to Trump and his celebrity-pussy-grabbing "locker room" talk. 

Maybe that's why I'm lost.  I don't believe in words.
I watched this talk about altruism, and why more people are altruistic than others...

And then it showed that less altruistic people have a smaller amygdala than those who are not altruistic...

This reminded me of this show I watched, where it showed that people in the 70s were making babies by combining high IQ people's sperm with egg, so that the child will have a higher advantage in this modern society, and they interviewed the babies who are now adults (and the adults are geniuses, the experiement worked).

Then I thought about how scientists would enlarge baby's amygdalas to have a happy cooperative utopia world...

I was also wondering... if the egotistical person, which is the opposite of the altruistic person have a shorter amygdala.  But that talk that I watched showed that psychopaths have a shorter amygdala.  I don't think people with high egos are psychopaths.  I wonder what the relationship between the amygdala and the ego is.  Or how about, what the association between the ego and being altruistic is.

Idk.  Amygdalas. Neocortexes.  Ego.  Shit.
Kinda disappointed with the Janken results... but I like how my oshi passed the first round.

No one even made a Gif set of her or posted any pictures of her on her Tumblr tag, so that makes me even sadder.

Fucking Slave Morality

It's so annoying!

In my lab practical, skills test, I was putting away the tubes, right?  Because I was done.  I created my streak plate and finished my Gram stain.  The tubes were in the front of the class room, and I was going to store the tubes that I used (E. Coli broths and slants) in the front rack, because that was where I obtained them. And then the instructor stopped me, and told me that they belong in the biohazard corner because they were contaminated.

I obeyed her, and just stored it back at the biohazard corner.

Why do I obey "people of authority" automatically?  Why do I obey first, and think later?  Do I not want to cause trouble?  Yes, I don't want to cause trouble.  But it wouln't hurt what I'm thinking in my head... which was: my aseptic technique was perfect BITCH.

This instructor, thinking she knows everything... which she does.  But still, people of authority are so annoying, it pisses me off. The aftertaste pisses me off.

But it does make sense though, because the next class after me would have used the tubes in the front, and what if I did contaminate it?

I think, what annoyed me most, was how she said "it's contaminated."  Like, she really thinks I contaminated them because of bad aseptic technique.  Fuck you fuck you fuck you fuck you. But then again, it's possible that I did contaminated it.

I thought all these convoluted JRPG storylines were original...

I feel that, it turns out, they were all emulating the complicated plot of Neon Genesis Evangelion, capitalizing on an audience's desire for more confusing stories in the mid 90's...

So it was all about making money.

The ideas were fantastic.  But the motive is a letdown.

But so what, right?

Everything is inspired by something, it's impossible for something to be completely original. Unless... these creaters just threw in random philosophical jargon without clear connections, random plotwists, making me believe that it's something great, but really isn't, then I would just feel deceived. Would I like it if it wasn't like this?... maybe not actually.  And if I didn't like it, I would get better grades in school.

Then again.. I would never have known about Nietzsche if it wasn't for Xenosaga. And Nietzsche existed a century before the 90s.

Humans Don't Belong in Nature- Rant

You know how humans are so different than any other species?  Like, we "get tired", we have to build houses, we travel in cars.  You don't see any other animal on earth just stop to get rest.  Other animals are always alert, always running from predators, or always looking on organisms to prey on.  Also, we humans get hurt my temperature.  If it's too cold, we have to wear some external device, like a jacket, and we have to make fire.  You don't see any other animals manipulate external devices to adjust temperature.  At least, I don't.  We need air conditioning, and heaters.  No other animal does this.  So humans are like ALIENS.  We are so different...we don't NATURALLY belong in this planet.  We build SEPARATE communities AWAY from NATURE.   Why is this?  It's because we're NOT FROM HERE.  And you know what caused this??!?!?!?

THE METEORITES FROM OUTTA SPACE THAT KILLED THE DINOSAURS OUT.

THE METEORITES CONTAINED... a bacteria, that infected humans, specifically targetting the neo-cortex. And then a mutation occured in our ape ancestors...  resulting in this mess.  So we're all a big messy mutated mess who don't really belong in this planet.

AND THESE METEORS were brought to us by... OUR ALIEN ANCESTORS.

AND THAT'S WHY we have this innate function... to be excited about space exploration.  Why do we want to know things?  Why do we want to travel to space?  It's BECAUSE WE WANT TO GO HOME, BACK TO OUR ALIEN FAMILY IN OUTTER SPACE.  (Okay this last section is pushing it...)

Yeah I've been thinking of Chrono Trigger and Chrono Cross way too much...
Ah... I can put it in words now!

My desire to stay home defeats all other motivations.

Yep.

I feel like I have to replay Chrono Cross... just because the story is unessesarily convoluted.  Here are some points I am confused about, or some other questions that I have:

-The Dragon God.  So it's advanced Dragonian technology, consumed by Lavos.  What I don't understand is, how is a physical avatar form so impactful.  I don't understand.
-The Counter-balance thing.  So Terra Tower was pulled in to counter-balance the appearance of Chronopolis.  Is this thing for everything?  So if Crono, Lucca, Marle and gang went back in time, what would be sent along with them?  Shouldn't something have been sent too, to counter-balance them during the events in Chrono Trigger?

Meh there's more but whatever, my arm hurts. Can't type.
