Most of the girls who hit on me at work are potheads. There are a lot of hot girls at my college but I don't usually strike up a conversation with people unless they're wearing a t shirt for a band that I like or something. Also, my only two friends at college left me to live at a meditation center in San Franciso. Now I just spend all day studying in the library.

Watching a philosophy professor attempt to interpret Nietzsche's cryptic writings on twitter while she glosses over passages in which he essentially criticizes people who are like her.

Watched a softball contest between seniors (most are varsity baseball players) versus the school staff (Principal, Vice Principal, Algebra/Trig/Calc and Chemistry teachers, an athletic counselor, and a PTA member) during the graduation event. Guess who won.

Spoiler:

The staff won by 3:2 ratio. And the Algebra/Trig/Calc teacher was the MVP.

Street musician played a lovely classical piece that sounded so familiar, but the title was unknown. I tried to recall the circumstances in which I heard it and slowly realized that context was weeby. How so? My mind went through several recently watched shows, but none matched the feeling. After couple minutes of memory exertion I found the source. It was Mahoyo! Full translation never btw.

Mahoyo 2 never, that's the real crime. The Russian TL is supposed to be finished this year apparently, so hopefully that turns out. They've done some cute UI stuff with it, too: https://vk.com/mahoyorussian

Eve?

Eve?

You either searched for my twitter account or knew precisely who I was speaking of; holy shit. Yeah, I don't think Eve quite understands Nietzsche's philosophy to the degree that she thinks she does (but then again, who really does?). I love debating her. She's certainly intelligent, but sometimes I doubt that she can hold her head while reading his passages. She essentially used the "good war hallows the cause" quote to say that any war is hallowed, and that a war for Christianity would be hallowed because the war was in the name of Christ (she essentially espoused the instigation of a meaningless war for the sake of revitalizing Judeo-Christian ethics) , but I politely explained to her that I thought it meant that the "goodness" in the war was determined by the values of harbingers, and that only those with strong values could win a war, and that as such, the cause was hallowed by the war.

She also brought up "On the Tarantulas" from Thus Spake Zarathustra in an attempt to criticize social justice and she seems to skim right over what I would describe as Nietzsche's greatest criticism of people who generally have a strong sense of "justice": "Thus do I counsel you my friends; distrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful!" I thought that was pretty ironic because that very statement seems to stab at the heart of Eve's obsession with Christian ethics and their relationship to her criticisms of atheism, as well as what I believe to be an obsession with mending the separation between church and state. Generally, she seems rational, but I've seen her make manic tweets with absolutely absurd suggestions. "We should literally wage a war for Christianity" is just one of them, and possibly the stupidest thing I've ever seen her say, and it seems to me to be indicative of pathological thinking.
