#tangential thoughts

I ate an entire pint of ice cream way too fast and now I have brain freeze and my belly feels packed with molasses and oh I'm stoned and my tummy needs rubs

How do you all stick to a specific theme or interest and blog about it? I keep hopping from one thing to another like an over-caffeinated cat.. I admire your consistency and I'm sorry that you have to look at all the nonsensical thoughts and ideas that pop-up in my weird brain

If you could change one thing in your past, what would it be?

I mean, if you subscribe to the theory that whenever the past is altered it creates a divergent timeline, thus ensuring that the main timeline continues on without being corrupted whilst the alternate timeline created by that change branches off and continues alongside it, then no matter what I decide to change it won’t have an effect on my present.

That being said, it could and has been argued that time is parallel and simultaneous so we could be said to be living all possible timelines and potentialities at the same time.

Nevertheless, tangent. Getting to the question. I’m not entirely sure. The death of my brother is an obvious choice, as is my the death of my grandmother or the death of my friend. But then, death is inevitable and there are multiple stories throughout various mythologies warning against the consequences of cheating death. Perhaps something more tame then? I suppose the first college I attended? I feel that it affected the contentious relationship I have with formalised education. But again, changing that, I have no idea what effect that would have on my present. I could end up a totally different person.

I guess the simple answer is that I don’t know, and I’m not entirely sure that even if I did know, I would.
