That moment when you went to one of your favourite restaurants only to find it closed for good

A (sort of) belated Happy Chinese New Year guys!
(Fun fact: people in China don't eat fortune cookies after meals lol.)

Coca Cola is THE BEST fizzy drink in this goddamn world

Dreamed that I was able to choose "Love" or "Death" as my uni major and Death had higher entrance requirements than Love

Happy Autistic Pride Day to all those out there who is somewhere on the spectrum. May not be exactly proud to be an Aspie but definitely not ashamed to be one either.

Happy pride! I always suspected that I was on the spectrum due to my demeanor and various symptoms I experience, but I'm not 100% sure. (I was never diagnosed as a child, and I haven't gotten a diagnosis as an adult because I don't wanna pay for it myself XD).
Anyway, autistic people have always made and organized the most content for the internet, and as an internet junkie, I'm really grateful for that. I know the internet makes fun of autism a lot (I'm not sure how much of the mockery is bigotry and how much of it is self-deprecation), but really, the web owes SO MUCH to people on the spectrum. (I'm not trying to say that all content creators have autism, or that all autistic people have to make content. I'm just saying that I've noticed that a lot of art and entertainment I've consumed online over the years was made by people on the spectrum. Not to mention all the curated archives and wikis!)

Happy birthday to myself!!

Have the feeling that all dystopian literary works are basically produced from the same model. The Handmaid's Tale basically feels like the female perspective of Orwell's 1984. Or is it just that I should read more (I haven't read Brave New World or Fahrenheit 451 yet).
-
It's a bit more nuanced than that as well, since it also depends on the author's own views. 1984's dystopia was a totalitarian socialist one (effectively a warning from George Orwell, himself a socialist to his dying day, to avoid becoming too authoritarian), The Handmaid's Tale presents a Christian theocratic dystopia through a female-centric lens. In the case of Brave New World and Fahrenheit 451, the best way to describe both of them would be technocratic dystopias, but in different ways; Brave New World's dystopia is founded on the principles of eugenics and what could best be described as luxury communism, whereas Fahrenheit 451's world is set in a world overrun by rampant materialism, basically the opposite of Brave New World (though it was really just Ray Bradbury's author filibuster against television).

Hush little baby, don't you cry. Don't cut your arms, don't say goodbye. Put down that razor, put down that light. It may be hard but, you'll win this fight.

I'm a regular blogger on another website, and just now for the first time in three and a half years one of my recent posts got 2000+ clicks!!!!!!!!!!

In some sense desperation is like writer's block: you are full of piss/inspiration but are just unable to let it pour out and flow freely.
-
Kinda strange that I'm not into anything other than pure pee desperation. No wetting, no messing, no diapers or humiliation or such. Anyone else out there?

Literotica is a whole freakin' new world

So this guy is a friend from middle school, clever, funny and super energetic, and I've always been sort of interested in him even back then. We went to different high schools but kept in touch. We've been speaking a bit more these days as his university has programmes I'm interested in and I was asking him for detailes. He still makes comments that make me roar with laughter; he genuinely hasn't changed much throughout the years and I soon realised nor does my interest in him. Neither of us has been in a serious relationship before and I've no idea how to even try to steer the topic towards this when we chat (he's a bit of a nerd, it's been ages since we last went to school together, and I'd had a slightly traumatic experience regarding romantic feelings). Any advice on what I should do/whether I should do anything at all?

Some are able to make their way through life because of their childhood; others are able to make their way through life despite of their childhood.

Somehow boosted up my courage to confess something in the Off-topic Discussion section I never have the guts to post anywhere else.

Spend half of my time hoping emails find people well and the other half waiting for replies that never come

That moment when you got diagnosed with diabetes meaning that extra pills are added to your daily medication for treating mental health issues. Such is life huh.

They say the only way to beat a dragon is to become one. Hence I want to become an IELTS examiner in the future.

Today (10 September) we observe World Suicide Prevention Day, for all who survived it, all who did not, and all who had lost someone to it.
