This is why I dislike looking back on the past as if everything has been constantly improving to get us to where we are now
Our cement isn’t as strong as the Romans, our steel isn’t as strong as Damascus steel, we cannot replicate the beauty of a Stradivari violin, we’ve already lost some of the technology that flew Apollo and Gemini to space
And when I live out a suitcase I have to sift through a pile of stuff like a neanderthal
art nouveau really slapped and served and they were so right about florals and curves and unconventionality and originality and being inspired by the shapes of nature and wanting to incorporate fine art into home design and rejecting the compulsory conformity of mass manufacturing like every time i see an utilitarian square bricks and metal building i want to kill myself immediately
Me in 2022 when the pandemic hasn’t ended yet because people don’t know how to act right and I’ve been holed up in my house for three years acquiring a new flavor of crazy, going to open the door for the guy in the hazmat suit that’s come to deliver my groceries
it’s kind of funny how the internet is really (generally) all about acceptance of mental health and abuse history and things like that but when you flip that around and talk about people who have missed developmental milestones and are a little immature for their age, people are fucking BRUTAL lol. like guys what do you think is gonna happen if someone is abused or mentally ill or closeted or isolated for significant periods of time in their youth? what happened to all the acceptance and understanding bro?
like i cant think of anything that matters less than someone in their mid 20s being a little immature for their age and missing milestones only to reach them later, as long as the person in question isn’t trying to harm anyone or bend the world to meet their specific set of limited experiences….who cares otherwise…
