Trovo sempre utile ripassare "Le leggi fondamentali della stupidità umana", enunciate nel 1976 dallo storico Carlo M. Cipolla nel saggio "Allegro ma non troppo".
- Prima Legge Fondamentale: sempre e inevitabilmente ognuno di noi sottovaluta il numero di individui stupidi in circolazione.
- Seconda Legge Fondamentale: la probabilità che una certa persona sia stupida è indipendente da qualsiasi altra caratteristica della persona stessa.
- Terza (e aurea) Legge Fondamentale: una persona stupida è una persona che causa un danno a un'altra persona o gruppo di persone senza nel contempo realizzare alcun vantaggio per sé o addirittura subendo una perdita.
- Quarta Legge Fondamentale: le persone non stupide sottovalutano sempre il potenziale nocivo delle persone stupide. In particolare, i non stupidi dimenticano costantemente che in qualsiasi momento e luogo, e in qualunque circostanza, trattare e/o associarsi con individui stupidi si dimostra infallibilmente un costosissimo errore.
- Quinta Legge Fondamentale: la persona stupida è il tipo di persona più pericoloso che esista.
- Corollario: lo stupido è più pericoloso del bandito.

Female White-necked Jacobin by Adam Rainoff Via Flickr: This photograph captures a Female White-necked Jacobin (Florisuga mellivora) perched quietly at La Minga Ecolodge, near Cali, Valle del Cauca, Colombia. The bird’s muted emerald and teal tones are layered with soft gray scaling across the chest, a subtle palette that often causes females to be overlooked beside their more flamboyant male counterparts. Here, the long, gently curved bill and elongated wings are emphasized by a clean side profile, while the diagonal perch adds a sense of balance and calm. The background dissolves into a smooth wash of green, isolating the subject and allowing fine feather detail and eye sharpness to carry the frame. From a technical standpoint, this image was all about restraint and timing. I worked to keep the background distant and uncluttered, using a shallow depth of field to separate the bird from the forest while maintaining enough detail to honor the texture of the plumage. The soft, diffused light typical of this cloud-forest environment helped preserve natural color without harsh contrast, making post-processing minimal and true to the scene. As photographers, we often chase drama, but moments like this remind me how powerful simplicity can be when composition, light, and subject align. ©2026 Adam Rainoff Photographer

I have returned from the mission. It went... well, I suppose. The threat is dealt with, the healers are stabilizing the survivors in the Ward, I got my first experience intentionally piloting a mech in a real combat scenario.
I... also had not ever killed anyone before. I am not the best person to argue whether cycling an NHP is killing, but it certainly felt like it here. I do not regret it, Styx was killing a lot of people and directly asked me to, but...
family... hug...
Thanks, Mel.
