I love card decks and collecting all different kinds of pretty motifs. But I HATE those short videos where people "showcase" amazing looking decks and their case but then just do cardistry and tricks with the cards FACE DOWN instead of showing what is actually interesting.
They just flex and leave me hanging every single time.
Sometimes they don't even say what cards they were playing with so I can't look them up myself easily.

I approach every interaction as if they could be my best friend and I hope the world is kinder for it
The world should live in generations
The generation of the rich creates a new one that has the luxury of experiencing and exploring and inventing without the fear of not being able to afford it. That generation should then create the next one that strives to support the old who innovated and kept their world beautiful by splitting away from them by amounting wealth, which then circles back to children who have the ability to roam and explore the arts.
I think that would be a beautiful circle of life and improve our world and culture and economy greatly.

And the seeds looking more scrumptious than the fruit but not being edible was the greatest disappointment of the year for me

Just watched Mickey 17
It was good and engaging overall, I never felt the urge to stop watching.
Wasted Potential:
It mentioned some incredibly interesting concepts like the point they made that even though we as viewers feel sorry for Mickey for constantly dying, he in some way is in the best position because he doesn't have to fear permanent death. Another one was the loss of personality that happens after dying and being forced to come back over and over again together with the identity crisis of "who is the real me?" (Similar to Twice from MHA, but not as good). How the story briefly delved into spirituality with "god only granting one soul to one body, anything else being against the natural order" and they just left the untapped potential for a deep philosophical discourse rotting, while simultaneously mentioning MULTIPLE TIMES the church/company back on earth and on the ship!?.
Another thing that had a lot of potential but wasn't given any significance was Mickeys implied trauma (hearing Chainsaw noises, numbness when it came to following orders, maybe that was a cause for his personality changes?). It was very disappointing to see how little they unwrapped the sacrifice of Mickey 18, after he admitted that he too, still feared death.
My big gripe:
It portrayed those very interesting and potentially deep topics so unseriously and shallow that I felt like I was watching the retelling of a child playing with its toys ( or how it looked in the childs head). Children don't quiet grasp human personalities in their depths and in early age lack the ability to properly feel empathy in a natural way. All conversations felt very uncomfortable but I think not in the way it was intended. I had a hard time seeing anyone aside from Mickey 17 & 18 as human (even the "good" characters).
The movie tried to be funny in a dark humour kind of way which prevented it from acting as an analysis of human nature but it also took itself too seriously to be funny, landing at a crossroad that made all interactions just feel awkward.
Instead the story focused on so many things (the points I mentioned before, the usual theme of rich and poor that Bong Joon Ho is known for and humans being the parasites after invading a new planet)
There are also very little logical explanations for moments like why the Mickeys have such varying personalities or why so many woman fawn over him (can't be because of his suave nature, that must have been another Mickey we haven't seen).
We are the terrorists:
In the way of humanity being the aliens I actually liked how it was basically a better version of Avatar, they didn't need to make the Aliens beautiful and human-like to make us like them. All it took was them showing more humanity by saving Mickey, not seeing him as an expendable, than any human on the entire ship.
Ending/additional thoughts:
It was one of those movies that (without wanting to sound pretentious) would have been better if it had a lower budget and had to focus on the characters instead of expensive scenery and cool cgi aliens that need to be saved.
Robert Pattinson was amazing though, i love movies where an actor plays two roles in the same movie because throughout the whole film you really get to see their acting abilities and versatility. He really killed it with the nervous, jittery 17 as well as the irritable, driven 18.
I interpreted the whole movie as a lesson in empathy, because that was the biggest plot point as I saw it (like mentioned before, there were a lot of those).
The lack and presence of it, which isn't an incredibly unique idea but still nice to see.
You know how people say life flashes before your eyes during death?
I believe in a theory that we are in an inception style loop where we live through our lives and when we die, life flashes by and we do it all again in an infinite loop. It's like a dream, where few seconds of dying can feel like a lifetime.
That is the human afterlife, infinite replays of our one time existing on this earth, it motivates me to make it worth it.
Having an "unreliable narrator" tag is a great way to excuse poor continuity or unintelligibility on the authors part
I hate time reversal endings. They make everything so meaningless but at the same time permanent since the old/original characters are basically "dead".
The characters I spent so much time bonding with being replaced with alternate universe doppelgangers makes me feel so uncomfortable and unable to have the same feelings towards them as I had before.
Nothing changes your perception of time like sleep deprivation or, alternatively, a "quick" , "10 minute" nap.
Eons have gone by where you swear it was merely 5 minutes, and you still feel not a little bit more rested.

There's a strange irony of someone who most certainly has adhd procrastinating getting an actual diagnosis
I think a really strange argument that small shops use is "art is a luxury, don't buy it if you can't afford it" because not only is it extremely insulting that they think themselves high enough to only want the richest patrons, not only do they turn away a lot of fellow artists, which is a generally tough paying market, as customers, but they are plain wrong.
Art isn't luxury, it's culture. Do only the rich deserve to hear music? To see art? To read poetry? To watch movies? To wear fashion? To write history?
Im not saying its wrong to price your work fairly, I'm saying it's wrong to frame it as a luxury reserved for the rich. Everything that ever made us US is art, everything is art and everyone made art even by their mere existence regardless of class.
It creates an artificial barrier between people who "deserve" it and those who don't. Whenever I hear that argument all I can think of is this:
I from now on have learned to post immediately upon having an idea or at least write it down for later. Because with my brain is thinking so much that after a few moments i don't even remember what idea i was wanting to post
I wonder how many people I liked or disliked on the internet that I have unknowingly met in real life. Like an incredibly funny instagram comment being my local baker I go to every so often.
"Besides death, all failure is psychological"
A very nice quote I saw recently (of course it is to be understood abstractly but if done so I think it has a great impact) and even death isn't necessarily failure.

You know that moment when everyone is laughing and you are totally not in on the joke? Like everyone always knows something you don't? That's what life felt like for me after the age of 10.
Erwin was the personification of the indomitable human spirit.
Additionally
Armin was humanities undying curiosity.
Eren was humanities unending desire for freedom.
Mikasa was humanities endless capacity for love.
