okay, so my body reflects my ethnicity, very occasionally I get other MENA types thinking I'm one of theirs, sometimes Russians/Ukranians think I'm one of theirs.

Judaism like my physical traits comes with my ethnicity, and obviously I like some stereotypes that go with my ethnicity, but I like stuff from other groups a lot as well. And while it'd be easy to assume Judaism describes all my spirituality, it doesn't; ultimately my spirituality is rooted in where I feel comfortable.

let's all travel at the speed of light

#drawings today as works on progress. I feel like I’m doing better animals but it took a ton of time, humanoid figures took forever, etc. Also it turns out I just can’t figure out how to draw the weird over the back draw for shooting down.

I live cement
I HATE THIS STREET
give dirt to me
I bite lament

who makes the rules?
SOMEONE ELSE!
I said who makes the rules?
SOMEONE ELSE!

We walk on two legs not on four
to walk on four legs breaks the law
what happens when we break the law?
what happens when the rules aren't fair?

this would be a GREAT time to listen to profoundly sad music, of course

So if the Space Wolves are Norse (and therefore Swedes) we can safely assume a “lemon russ” to be a lemon custard tart. Further, a “regal dorn” is presumably sponge cake with whipped cream and jam covered in marzipan. Both best accompanied with coffee, perhaps at 1600 on a cold Fenrisian afternoon.

the thing where my brain clicks over from panic to realization some stuff really hit buttons from childhood. That resulting spiral was *really* no fun.

some sort of fucking anxiety about jobs and car during the recession that asshole is setting off

the AI thing pretty much forever killing the dream of art for bucks is not helping either.

I'm thinking Ranger. SURELY GARL GLITTERGOLD'S LUCK SHINES UPON US THIS DAY

oh no, the curse of the Generation X! I thought I'd enjoy listening to TMBG's "Spider" but I've listened to the album so much I then needed to listen to "Dinner Bell" and now I'm on "Hall of Heads"

Dude who comes up with playground rhymes up at 2 AM scribbling frantically. “There’s a place in Paris, where the naked ladies pee. No, not it. There’s a place in Marseille where the naked ladies play. A place in Langue d’oc where the naked ladies mock. Nothing seems to work, it’s missing something.”

#drawings tonight. Drew and now posting to try staving off a bad case of The Sunday.

I hate how public school prepares you for the adult world during 12 years of your life, and most of what you learn is "this isn't a place you're safe or valued no matter what you do, this is where you go because there's NO choice." Or at least that's what I got out of the exercise.

housemate's soothing music as white noise to sleep currently is playing an unusually mellow version of Amazing Grace and all I can think of is "how nice! A soothing version of the theme tune for Gilligan's Island"

see I have this theory;

* People gain expertise if given resources to do what interests them. The truly rich didn't JUST start with money, they're people who think money and power is interesting, and if you're not also interested in money or power, they're not going to be very interesting people to you.

* Being a leader requires decisions which may hurt those you affect. This is easier to do if you're emotionally and physically remote from them. Wealth, including the seed capital needed to become truly rich, creates remoteness and the assumption everyone else has equal chances ( which makes it really easy to assume an active superiority to your underlings). But being low on empathy definitely helps.

* Wealth also buys the ability to make mistakes. If a immigrant family decides to start a restaurant, or a middle class kid goes off to college, and that tanks, that's basically their chances. Whereas if you're rich enough to try out five investments, and four tank but the other turns out fantastically solid, you're great financially and ego will follow.

So what I am saying is the very wealthy tend to be too privileged to question themselves, even if they're not profoundly self-absorbed bigots, and also can be incredibly boring people if you're not them.

The less polite way to say it is that I think we're ruled by uncreative, uncreatING, complete sadists.
