El-mom

Oof...

Get out of here S. But yes, I very much would love to steer out of the prisons (and never met a younger man I liked so...) :)))

Which dumps lol?

God's plan Okay, honestly though, right now is to build myself up as well as I can (in multiple areas). Longer-term is to live a life with as minimal regrets as possible, yaw there are specifics under it but yeah, the general gist of it is that.... If you make the question more specific then I guess I'd be able to answer better...

I MUST'VE CALLED A THOUSAND TIMESSSSSSS

I want to be freer there. I'm not yet (considering I made it private late) but I want that. I also like the idea of having that as an experimental ground before posting here, so.... And nuh, still trying to find El-dad, let me know if you find him 🥹🥹

Oh, thanks so much 🫶🫶 Demo reach out love, would love to catch up :))

All this because I said I haven't met a lot of old older people in Tech here 😭😭😭😭 Genuinely though, are the tech spaces surrounding us heavily 20-35 averaging or what? Where are the 50 and 60 year old mentors at? In Ethiopia?

Heaven's case still haunts me. I remember signing a petition back then too. However, our legal system seems to misunderstand that it is only her who had been wronged. This is the least we can do. But let's do it. And in due time, we will be louder. Fuck the men who continue to be more barbaric than a prehistoric rock, and the law which keeps emancipating them. Things are so bad that the next petition that comes up is for criminalizing marital rape 🤦‍♂ [Petition]

Two things (both came in convo with Occipital): - The first one is on immortality. My argument is that at one point, you'd lose meaning because you don't have a deadline. His argument is that there are infinite creations you can experience and create, that you can never get bored. And honestly, I can see that, very much. - The second is how we, as human beings, can take the basics of what we're given and transform it in such different ways that you get a lot of unique perspectives. My point of view here is with art. It's essentially the equivalent of how many colors we've been able to create from very few fundamental colors and how many ways we've been able to transform those. It's insane bchas, the amount we create and continue to create. It's brilliant, it's beautiful, and it's truly endless, it's crazy.
