zenos apologia

As a poet, I also want my viewers to take this rather beautiful allegory into account.

The US is crazy bc like so many people have intense conspiracy theories about the government like "I think there's a secret elite group of people who control everything" and you can tell them "actually you're not completely wrong, it's just not a secret group of people, it's a bunch of rich people and lobbyists who are doing it all out in the open" and they'll be like "hmmn I don't think it's THOSE people though. I prefer my racist & antisemitic theories"

They'll be like "I heard there's a powerful ring of pedophiles who are influencing the country" and you'll tell them "I mean yeah that's what the Epstein files are about" and they'll say "no I'm pretty sure this has to do with The Queers actually"

Conspiracy theory no one will ever accept: What if the people secretly controlling the world are the same people obviously controlling the world?

You really can’t find this type of humor anywhere else

doing my damnedest to free myself of the “just gotta get through this week” “only x more days til the weekend” mindset & learn to appreciate each day for whatever it is lest i be driven to madness

if u are negative on this post im blocking u ! some of us are trying to get better

Everybody driving a car thinks they're the main character of the car. This is an ideologically bourgeois attitude. You know who doesn't ever feel like the main character of the vehicle they're in? Literally everyone on the bus. You're on the fucking bus. And the bus driver doesn't feel like the main character of the bus because she's at fucking work. The bus is the most ideologically proletarian form of transport.

It’s crazy how homophobes/transphobes are always like “I don’t think gay and trans people should exist in public. How do I explain them to my child?” and gay and trans people are like “Oh okay, I can do it for you. Sometimes boys like other boys and girls like other girls. Sometimes people are told they’re a girl as a child but realize they’re actually a boy or something in between a boy and a girl or no gender at all and vise versa.” and then they ban the books explaining these extremely simple concepts in child friendly terms.
