"Meltdown has a place for you as a schizophrenic HIV+ transsexual chinese-latino stim-addicted LA hooker with implanted mirrorshades and a bad attitude. Blitzed on a polydrug mix of K-nova, synthetic serotonin, and female orgasm analogs, you have just iced three Turing cops with a highly cinematic 9mm automatic" - Nick Land

To be alone, and to indulge in retrospection,
Has brought forth neither art nor grand creation,
In idleness and sombre, man decays to vainness,
By self-proclaiming all his self-important plainness,

Epiphany a few have come from cheapened meditation,
And many lives annulled under a scrutinous inspection,
Are void and vacant when they lack resolve
On a trajectory that sways and sinks to the default

So, Do, Think, Make and Work on every imperfection!
But give it little of your time and less of self-reflection.

whoa! literally me (a gamer)

>Q: WE HEAR YOU’RE NOT THAT KEEN ON TECHNOLOGY...
>A: I don’t have an internet connection, or a mobile phone, or a TV signal. I can play [digital] music on the television, or on the computer I suppose, but I don’t. I am pretty much cut off from the 21st century. It’s like culturally I’m trying to establish a kind of sensory deprivation tank for myself, whereby I am receiving no modern signals whatsoever, because I’ve heard that after a while in a sensory deprivation tank you start to hallucinate and have all sorts of strange experiences, so I’m waiting for that to happen.

>Q: HOW DO YOU MANAGE WITHOUT THE INTERNET?
>A: It seems to work. I am pretty much cut off from the majority of the 21st century, but not much escapes me. You hear about everything, because you’re talking to people, you’re absorbing a lot of this information as if by osmosis, just through the pores of your skin. I have said that by embracing the internet in the way that it has done, which was kind of inevitable, society has embarked on a massive experiment without having any idea of the various ways in which those technologies will impact upon us socially, politically and psychologically. So I so think if there’s this huge experiment going on, it’s best that I remain outside the petri dish, as a kind of control, so that we’ll be able to see how badly the rest of you have mutated, by comparing you with me as a kind of baseline.

There are more stars in our galaxy than atoms in the universe.
.Neil Degrasse Tyson.

For our struggle is not against enemies of blood and flesh, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers of this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.

Ephesians 6:12

昨夜星辰昨夜風
畫樓西畔桂堂東
身無綵鳳雙飛翼
心有靈犀一點通
隔座送鉤春酒暖
分曹射覆蠟燈紅
嗟余聽鼓應官去
走馬蘭臺類斷蓬
