this whole incident is a metaphor for life in general: things get broken, and sometimes they get repaired, and in most cases, you realize that no matter what get damaged, life rearranges itself to compensate for your loss, sometimes wonderfully.

“But these were days of self-fulfillment, where settling for something that was not quite your first choice of a life seemed weak-willed and ignoble….There were times when the pressure to achieve happiness felt almost oppressive, as if happiness were something that everyone should and could attain, and that any sort of compromise in its pursuit was somehow your fault.”

Nini is starting Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man
My professor of “social media and politics” class has assigned this book as a mandatory read for the first week. Never in my life have I been this grateful that I am still in school, taking classes and have time to read books like this as my main responsibility/work in life😅🙏🏻

“Drive my car” - 5
I love the depth and the variation of characters in this one. A subtle gender swap throughout the entire story is delightful as well. I particularly enjoyed reading about this male character who has multiple layers of personalities (why are this mostly females?) and I like like like reading about (and imagining) that such men actually (might) exist.

Great canons angle toward great power, and the great privilege of great power is an incuriosity about those who lack it.

The Art of Insubordination:
“ 2. Don’t speak fear; cultivate curiosity. Frame the current members as future allies

4. Communicate your self-sacrifice as an act of courage. Don’t be disagreeable naysayers. Seem uncomfortable speaking out against the group. Candidly evoke how hard it is to act rebelliously.
5. Be consistent yet flexible. Know the hill you will die on, but bend on the less important issues.”

“The function of hazing is to create a community of sufferers by causing suffering unto prospective members. Yet, it can also be used as a tool in hierarchical groups to establish pecking order…Challenges can be excellent techniques to create a sense that “we all had to overcome something” to be a member of this group.”

Reminds me a lot of academia 😅
