Distract and Impose External Frameworks

Architecture behind the box stage 2 This approach played a key role in the partitioning of the Middle East following the world war. Once a society is divided, it becomes easy to control—provided its attention is diverted from its own internal problems toward artificial "rules of the… read more

Psychology of Faith

Single Much? A Night Out, a Cold Iced Tea, and the Loneliness We Don’t Talk About

A guy bumps into me as I’m walking into the restaurant. A sting shoots down my spine—old pinched nerves from the military reminding me that my body keeps score whether I want it to or not. It wasn’t intentional, so I accept his earnest apology and keep moving. The hostess greets me with the most… read more

Why Early Christians Would Refuse Modern "Dating"

The modern concept of "dating" —characterized by individualistic, transactional, and algorithm-based interactions— is a relatively recent invention (around 100 years old) rather than an ancient tradition.

Okay.. so not sure how I feel about these sort of updates..

Sure, it's aesthetically more pleasing than the "auto-translated" blabla we had, before, and it takes less space; I just still feel like having had every dimension collapse into one "Everyone" universe (look at the top right corner - not on the picture but in your general feed) has made this place… read more

This time managed to capture my birth givers cat's walk in the communal space between the flat building floors.

My birth giver is an oldest unloved offspring of a narcissist and an enabler, and the other two siblings are a classic example of that toxic dynamic (middle sister the forgotten one, youngest brother - the golden). So considering all that she has a bit of an excessive paranoia when it comes to the… read more

When a society is already divided, it is easily controlled by distracting it from real issues and imposing artificial rules of the game—frameworks that benefit those at the helm.

The history of the Middle East in the early 20th century offers a striking example of how this works on a global scale. Two figures—Thomas Edward Lawrence (better known as Lawrence of Arabia, 1888–1935) and Gertrude Bell (1868–1926), British officers, archaeologists, and diplomats—gave everything… read more

Misunderstood Marx

No one fully understands another person. This is especially true in philosophy. After reading a philosophical book, we try to summarize it in our minds, simplifying and distorting the information. It is even worse when we try to convey the knowledge we have gained to someone unfamiliar with the… read more

Logged In, Locked Out - en

“It’s true that I’m prone to carelessness and isolation, and shut myself away, unable to cope with communal life, but I’m definitely not a person who likes being alone. Being alone is easier for me, but I don’t like it. I want to make friends, I want to be friends with everyone, but I just can’t… read more

See! We are a clean and classy clan, despite popular belief.

I didn't want to engage with this cat's actual psycho owner so instead of allowing her to go have a walk around the communal flat foyer I gave her my work jacket to enjoy.

After the situation that was the fault of a security guard I will have to f****** wake up at 4:00 a.m. on the 18th of this month just to send a message to my direct boss explaining a possible bad review on the store and why it happened. Happy me, you can actually feel my sarcasm.

I'm a sucker for karaoke. If I could go every single night I would. Whenever I travel, I try to find at least one place to go during my trip. I tend to prefer places that have communal karaoke - not the private room type. On that note: What has been the best karaoke you've experienced? Like - what… read more
