  • What is the fundamental unit of the world?

    I had an epiphany (a bit late) last Saturday (30 May). I can't wait to share it!

    Dichotomies and 'invisible walls' don't matter at atll.
    Individuals don't matter at all.

    I talk about how the true unit of the world is an incorporated business.

  • Why is 'rest' mandatory?

    Also known as, my Anti-Love Campaign
    Or Why I'm against 'work-life balance'.
    'Capitalism' is a hoax, and 'patriarchy' is a hoax. But the worst of them all: Love.

    The society has come up with new ways of counteracting the menace for working for a corporation or working at all, which is to posit the family as the solution.

  • Does intelligence matter?

    I discuss the whole concept of 'intelligence' and if it even means anything. i think it doesn't.

    The book I mentioned: Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go
    [spoilers!]
    The concept: the main characters are 'clones' who were brought to life to have their organs harvested.
    At school, they had a 'gallery', where the best art is displayed. They took it seriously.
    Some had a theory that students who can prove they're in love can get a 'deferral', so have a couple of years together before going for the donation.
    Tommy, one of the main characters, thinks that the art in the gallery shows their souls... and souls reveal whether you're truly in love.
    They went back to the headmaster, who told them, "The gallery is just to see if you have souls at all."

    A very convoluted sentence I somehow managed to write in this episode,
    "It’s extremely difficult to depict sex where you’re given to understand the complex internal connection of their souls because if the working of their souls could be verbalised, it’s not possible to contain it in the very banal scene of sex."

  • Why bear over man? (On agency and harassment)

    My blog: www.yen1993.com

    Barclays had an IT glitch last week: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/barclays-bank-down-outage-app-b2690614.html

    The quote by Toni Morrison:
    “The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being. Somebody says you have no language and you spend twenty years proving that you do. Somebody says your head isn’t shaped properly so you have scientists working on the fact that it is. Somebody says you have no art, so you dredge that up. Somebody says you have no kingdoms, so you dredge that up. None of this is necessary. There will always be one more thing.”

    -Lecture in Portland, Oregon, 1975
