Me: Dad, can I get some gum?

Dad: Do you have money?

Me: You don’t give me an allowance.

Dad: Get a job.

Me: Dad, I’m nine.

Why do so many lyft/Uber drivers ask, “so where we heading today?” Like, you know where we’re heading. It literally tells you. Why are you forcing human interaction?

To children, the world and everything in it is new, something that gives rise to astonishment. It is not like that for adults. Most adults accept the world as a matter of course. This is precisely where philosophers are a notable exception. A philosopher never gets quite used to the world. To him or her, the world continues to seem a bit unreasonable- bewildering, even enigmatic. Philosophers and small children thus have an important faculty in common. The only thing we require to be good philosophers is the faculty of wonder.

Facts.

Conservatives love to talk about how we won’t get as good medical care with universal healthcare because the doctors won’t be paid enough, but every single doctor I’ve heard speak on the matter has said they would support universal healthcare. It’s almost like people become doctors because they want to help people and not because they want money.

I don’t know if you guys have heard but Eugenia Cooney seems to be making a recovery!!!

This is a recent photo of her posted by her hair dresser! For those of you who don’t know who Eugenia Cooney is, she is a YouTuber who has not been on the internet for quite some time now, as she has been recieving treatment for an eating disorder she has denied having for years. Everyone who watched her videos and/or followed her online in any way felt extremely helpless, as we were watching her wither away more and more day by day. So many fans and other people online reached out to her and she ended up making a tweet saying that she is taking a break from the internet and working with a doctor privately. Several people sent messages to her friends and family who confirmed that she was recieving in-patient treatment. It was amazing news to hear because she looked like she should have died from starvation a long time ago. I will not post pictures of her before here because it could be triggering to some people but feel free to look her up online. She is still not officially back online but did consent to her hair dresser posting this photo. Her steps toward recovery are a huge inspiration for anyone who has struggled with an eating disorder. I hope that once she is back online she will continue down this path toward recovery and keep being an inspiration to anyone who has ever struggled with an eating disorder. There is hope- and Eugenia is proving that.

I used to love “Trashin’ the Camp” from Tarzan when I was younger and then I grew older and realized that “Money” by Pink Floyd is like that but for older, cooler people.
