I usually walk everywhere with my headphones on, but I had them in my bag and I was reading a book on my phone instead (I do that when the foot traffic is light).  A young Latina was coming down the street as I was coming up the avenue, and when she got to the corner a few paces ahead of me, she turned to walk in the direction I was going.  We were traveling at the same speed, but since she was like ten paces ahead and it’s bright outside in the middle of the day, I didn’t feel the need to fall back or slow down to give her more space. At night, I try not to walk too close behind women just so they don’t feel like I’m any sort of threat.

We got to a corner and this dude standing outside of the bodega was like, “Slow down mama where you goin? You don’t have to work today, you can stop and speak.”

She didn’t break her stride. “I’m going to the gym.”  The Walk sign was on, so I didn’t break mine either.  

A block later, a young guy was coming toward us on the sidewalk riding his bike.

“What’s good shorty?”

She didn’t respond.

“Well you was lookin, you can say something, stuck up bitch.”

We kept walking.

In the middle of the next block, an older man was walking toward us and he put on a friendly smile and said, “Smile young lady, it’s a beautiful day.”

I don’t know if she smiled, but we kept walking. She went into the gym and I kept on toward where I was going thinking about how that was just five minutes of her day.  How many other blocks of five minutes are just like that?  

Only one of them was truly aggressive. The other two guys seemed nice enough and it felt more like a pleasant compliment. It felt like the kind of thing a guy says who argues with women online about catcalling. “We’re not all bad guys. We can’t even compliment women? We can’t even say something nice?”

No.  You really can’t.  I was annoyed in that five minutes and I just happened to be walking behind her with no headphones on.  Can you imagine those five minutes over and over every day of your life?  Nobody wants to be spoken to by strangers day in and day out forever regardless of what they’re saying.  

“I’ll do whatever you want" “Then Perish”

I thought there were no heroes left in this world

You kneel before my throne unaware it was born on lies

Take this gift, for the gods surely won’t

God wishes he were me

God gave me depression because if my ambitions went unchecked I would’ve bested him in hand to hand combat by age 16

“I know you’ve all heard talk of being the emperor’s chosen and heroes of the Imperium, but the truth is, you are essentially nothing to this Imperium. You’re farmers, workers, and criminals, picked to be a part of the most expendable force known to man. You will be sent into battle. You will be sent often. Many of you will die, and you will die often. I do not expect you to like it, but I am asking that you accept this and make your peace with it.

My father taught me as a child that if you shoot for the moon and miss, the cold vacuum of space will suck out your eyeballs. Failure is not an option. Go kill them.

All these moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.

You are alone, child. There is only darkness for you, and only death for your people. These ancients are just the beginning. I will command a great and terrible army, and we will sail to a billion worlds. We will sail until every light has been extinguished. You are strong, child, but I am beyond strength. I am the end, and I have come for you.

To feel sorrow is to deserve peace.

No pet is perfect, it becomes perfect when you accept it for what it is.

You could sooner divert a river from its course than deny my nature 

You cant shake the devil’s hand and say you’re only kidding.

No one will know the violence it took become this gentle.

Theres no light at the end of the tunnel so it’s a good thing we brought matches.

It’s not my job to pry, it’s the government’s. 

And lo, he did reach into his bag of talent, and verily, it was found to be barren -Yamaha 10:99

Every comment is a prayer, bringing me closer to emerging from my cursed plane. Thank you for heralding the apocalypse this old god brings.

People say “phase” like impermanence means insignificance. Show me a permanent state of the self.

The answer to dispair is action 

i work more, get paid less, fucking quota’s got me stressed, and my healthcare cuts out half of my paycheck
