Did you know cats and undercooked meat can give you toxoplasmosis, a.k.a. a fucking behavior altering parasite.
When rats are infected, they sometimes lose their fear of cats, and will seek them out.
the fuck?
Some behavioral changes have been noted in humans, including:
Decreased novelty seeking behavior
Slower reactions
Lower rule-consciousness and greater jealousy (in men)

Happiness can be extremely bittersweet sometimes.
It’s great in that you feel great.

in [creation] we trust
I’ve heard some arguments about why we’re alive. Is it to procreate, to pass on genes indefinitely, and to make sure humans continue as a species?
Are we really just trying to live another day, and if we are, what about it then?
I read a fact a couple of days ago, one that said that fireflies only live 7 days, all of which they spend trying to find a mate. Their entire life devoted...

nerves are one of the biggest driving forces a person can have.
not only do those butterflies in your stomach make you feel like they fly, but they test you. you have two options from that point. you can overcome them, and therefore, remove them quickly and gain an experience, or you can wait them out, playing a game of wits with your gag reflex.
it wasn’t until i had one shoe on, phone...

went to bed last night knowing fully well i had a class at 7 the next morning, so i set an alarm for 6:30.
at 2:30, my mind was extremely bent on getting me to said class, and woke up and tried to convince me to get ready.
then again at 3:30,
then 4:30,
and finally 5:30.
at this point, im thinking “there’s no way im going to sleep through my alarm now, i’ve been waking up...

in [night] we trust
last night was one of those nights that you have once every few months, at the most.

From a much earlier post:
“there are three words in which no one wants to hear, but they are a painful, painful truth. as much as egos and defense systems would like to disprove, i am nothing but a person, fragile, weak, and human. i hurt, i have connections, and i react and interact according to my beliefs. therefore, you have to believe me when i say,” [end]
