“All of us, grave or light, get our thoughts entangled in metaphors, and act fatally on the strength of them.” – George Eliot, Middlemarch
It is not the slumber of reason that engenders monsters, but vigilant and insomniac rationality.
Gilles Deleuze, Anti-Oedipus (via freelance-philosopher)
Nowadays, it seems like Tumblr is ruthlessly criticized, mocked, and dismissed as irrelevant by just about everyone and anyone even vaguely aware of it’s existence, and I certainly have my own grievances with regards to what much of the culture on here has degenerated into; however, Tumblr is the only social media platform I use that, to this day, hasn’t made an effort to censor my writing or manipulate algorithms to hide my content and covertly banish me. Youtube Demonetized my videos for being “too controversial” without any further elaboration on the legitimacy of this claim. For about two years, I or anyone else was unable to post my website url on Instagram in a caption or even send it as a message; same with posting it in a status or messaging it on Facebook. Any attempts would be cited as “abuse” with some faceless entity explaining to me that what I’m doing is a “threat to the online community”. I suppose campaigning a perspective and lifestyle that’s conducive to the health and autonomy of the individual, is actually somewhat threatening to a community, that is, a kind of dystopian community whose participants are content to remain as insignificant and irrelevant as possible. Instagram recently removed some of my content as “hate speech” because someone somewhere was offended by something for some reason, much like literally anything can be for any reason to anyone anywhere. Again, no explanation. Let’s just remove everything from everywhere and sit in silence.
Scroll through the content on my page, and compare what you observe with other media, entertainment, and information outlets, that not only remain uncensored, but are encouraged in mainstream social forums. Despite the gratuitous violence and malice between people depicted throughout essentially all media, for example, I’ve apparently crossed a line by critiquing perspectives, cultural norms, and providing strategies for others to live a more fulfilling life. Think about that.
Anyone who wants to be understood will never know the delight of being understood, because this happens only to the complex and misunderstood; simple souls, the ones whom other people can understand, never feel a desire to be understood.
Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet (via freelance-philosopher)
“The weaker the body, the more imperious its demands; the stronger it is, the better it obeys.” - Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Emile, or On Education
Jean-Paul Sartre’s great work of philosophy, L’être et lenéant, introduces the Nothingness that haunts all that he wrote and said… If ever I were to read Sartre again, I would look for a 1964 Burgundy to wash the poison down. Small chance of finding one, however, so there is one great writer whom I shall never again revisit - and I thank God for it.

“We always deceive ourselves twice about the people we love — first to their advantage, then to their disadvantage.” - Albert Camus, A Happy Death
Where are we to put the limit between the body and the world, since the world is flesh? Where in the body are we to put the seer, since evidently there is in the body only ‘shadows stuffed with organs,’ that is, more of the visible? The world seen is not ‘in’ my body, and my body is not ‘in’ the visible world…
If our science of moral laws is false, it is evident that, while desiring our own good, we are accomplishing our own evil; if it is only incomplete, it may suffice for a time for our social progress, but in the long run it will lead us into a wrong road, and will finally precipitate us into an abyss of calamities.
Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, What is Property? (via philosophybits)
“Patriotism assumes that our globe is divided into little spots, each one surrounded by an iron gate. Those who have had the fortune of being born on some particular spot consider themselves nobler, better, grander, more intelligent than those living beings inhabiting any other spot. It is, therefore, the duty of everyone living on that chosen spot to fight, kill and die in the attempt to impose his superiority upon all the others.” - Emma Goldman, What is Patriotism?
The way is infinitely long, nothing of it can be subtracted, nothing can be added, and yet everyone applies his own childish yardstick to it.
Franz Kafka, The Zürau Aphorisms (via philosophybits)
A very good practice for preventing anger in the first place is to become masterful at listening.

The entire “not like the other girls “ thing
“ Nah I’m a girl and personally I think make-up sucks, and I just wear what I can find “
—comment on youtube
Okay, but why is it something you need to brag out? I am really curious to know why did you feel the need to reject “”“feminity”“” like that?
Cause I don’t understand how it supposed to be seen as positive.
Like traditional feminine things are seen as Basic.
To be basic is seen as bad? Because?
Oversaturation, so you got a reaction of rejecting it. Got to the extreme so you balance by going the other way?
So to not be seen as bad you do the opposite. Wich is masculine.
So you adopt masculine traits to reject feminine ones. Because?
And that’s where It gets a bit too much.
Because Masculine traits are associated with a mostly positive connotation, while feminine has a less positive connotation. So At first, I would conclude that it’s “we ended up being empowered by feminity and now they are trying to make us feel bad about it"
But it’s false cause the "basic” feminity that we got in the first wasn’t empowering.
So I am just very confused by the entire thing
EDIT: this isn’t an opinion. I am not set yet on it. I am just trying to go fully around the question. It’s something I even did and I am trying to understand. Cause I have to gut feeling that there is something wrong with this thinking and I am trying to found it
I hope you were all able to get out there for Black Friday and neurotically encumber yourselves with temporary pacifiers that reinforce your comatose lifestyle of compulsory procrastination, escapism, and distraction.
