Outer Considerations

Something that can’t quite grasp into words but…. Consider this, that the very things that we have today, other human beings are never gonna experience such. Because they have ceased to exist before such possibilities spurred up. Same with us, things in the future we will never really be able to fathom, but will still exist, us being here or not… Or maybe some of these things will just be possible because of us, too, somehow.

Backup People

On the necessity of “Backup people”, if so we could call them this way, and what do I mean by that? Take for instance, Andrea Riseborough which plays Cruise’s Communication Officer in Oblivion (2013), or Zip from Tomb Raider Legend and Underworld. Jarvis in MCU with Ironman, or TARS from Interstellar are some of the few other examples I can think as of now… And I bring this up because I feel it often goes overlooked, such roles as these.

Uneasy Times

Hi people. I don’t know if everybody has heard about it, but the Chernobyl Powerplant was attacked this february (2025) by a suicide drone from Russia (probably, authorities say). If you didn’t notice, we are already in may, and there didn’t seem (at least for me) any kind of news whatsoever about this situation before. This got me worried. I mean, the current situation of the world in which we live in, war in Ukraine still raging, Palestine and Israel conflict, the Proxy Trade Wars, and then there’s Lady Gaga doing a show for free in Rio’s Copacabana beach to break the streak.

Knowledge's Failure

I’ve just talked with a friend of mine which shared some experiences on how her brother was struggling to get into grips with being what he perceived as a “failure” of sorts. And so she shared with me a bit of their debate of what a failure really was, in terms of knowledge and so forth… The thing is, seems that nowadays, we are all too centered on the things that knowledge of a certain topic might or ought to bring to us.

Glamourization of Work

I’ll make this a short one. Mostly because the matter at hand is pretty straightforward. But, it seems like we are trying to glamourize through a certain cadence of perspectives, the dreadful reality which work involves. I mean, the bunch of posts we have on a certain platform exalting work and the workplace and whatmore, especially inside IT departments, is just astounding, as if working in this day and age would be one of the best things for your life.

Unfathomable Heroes

Sound Track: Tomb Raider Legend Manor Theme (Extended Edit)_ Lara Croft, Harry Dresden, or so many others one could think about… No, they don’t exist in our society (at least not as in Marvel movies and the like), and yet, they themselves seem to be so much needed for the breeding of our imagination and consideration of possibilities beyond the ordinary from which we live. On a random comment around the internet, a user said: “I know she is not real but she gave me comfort” and hoo boy, that resonated on so many levels, you can’t even imagine.

Why Hide?

Some people may feel compelled to reason as to why such hiding places like this one exist on the internet. I may give you a brief reason, at least as of my reasoning, as follows: because sometimes, one needs to refrain from being indulged with the burden of wearing the unnerving façade that we all share during our mundane and troubling day-to-day lives. We are sometimes obliged to take on the burden of carrying the weights of our choices, and how others perceive ourselves to be.

Forbidden Games

The tale I am ‘bout to tell is a bit harsh in terms of memories, but it is one of the reasons I believe we must thread lightly on the memorial grounds of the oldish paths we took. Games have a dear place in my heart, as I’ve always played them, and the idea of a “forbidden game”, for me, had never crossed my mind, up until half an hour ago.

Crushes and Unmatches

This one will be shorter because of the sleep deprivation I’ve been having over the last few days but… I was thinking about the whole situation with Crushes and Unmatches going on, and how that may lead up to a very high level of frustration on some young men and women who can’t seem to connect with others. Maybe it is just seasonal, or maybe due to your profile pictures, but considering then, and when one person can match quite rarely with another fellow from our species, and that gives a little spark of hope and connection, then, out of the blue, just as suddenly, it just vanishes with no impression of feedback whatsoever, it makes things really shaky and unstable.

Digital Anonymity

Funny thing though, that in the modern times which we find ourselves in, in order to be “truly” ourselves, somehow we thus need to dissociate from our own profile and personae. Lemme illustrate this with something I’ve faced twice recently… Two different people drew my attention for me “exposing too much” on social media, one on Threads, another one on IG. On both cases I was using my real personal account, thus, it was linked to my real name in the nickname, therefore, others could trace it back to me.
