Neural misfires from a northern brain

A sort of stream of consciousness of things I collect from t'interweb. Don't expect coherence or anything.

Creativity sometimes takes more than one person, even if they’re both in the same body.

Be brief, concise and direct. Anyone who over-complicates things is at best insecure and at worst stupid. Children speak the most sense and they haven’t read Nietzsche.

The Wonder Stuff - Suspended by Stars

One of my favourite songs of the last decade, I think.

I’ve just figured out one more person that I’m not. Kinda liberating.

Fixed it.

Yes, good fix-it. :)

I’d also like to add: why is it so hard for some men to understand that women don’t make all of their decisions based on men!?

“Slutty” women behave that way because they want to! Presumably because they enjoy sex!! And having it with multiple people!!! Because they are independent human beings with their own likes and agency!!!! Whoa!!!!!

ALSO also: having a lot of sex in no way means you don’t respect yourself. Same as having no sex doesn’t mean you think your body is some kind of sacred temple not to be disturbed. How about we stop basing self-worth on sex.

:) for the second pic and comments.

Hahah best response ever :)

The best thing for me to do is forget about my need for inspiration and go out and live a little more. Get uncomfortable. Live some other art. Travel. Walk the earth and get into adventures. I believe pretty strongly that this sort of thing comes from deep inside. So it requires some shake-up. Ironically, for me, getting inspired is ultimately about forgetting about looking for inspiration, because in that mode, you’re always judging. And when you’re judging, you’re not nearly as open to some inspiration that might crack you upside the head. Escape and engage.
