This is the state of the world right now:

- Out of a city where a modern institute of virology produces countless viral samples in the course of its daily operations, it is easier to make people believe that a Chinaman ate a bat, like fuckin' Ozzy, and then infected the...

So these hoes slut themselves out for the entire world to see, and then once a bunch of cunning pervs figure out how to see exactly what kind of merchandise they're selling, the media and self-righteous virtue signalers turn into cloistered fuckin' nuns and call for the dick guillotine.

How am I supposed to pick up a tiny black & white globe buried in a stack of 20+ tabs when I navigate away from here? I am highly displeased. Highly. Cease all refactoring. This is a major bug, and highly urgent business. Highly urgent. I had to close about...

It's official. I just YOLOd my life savings on Gamestop. Yes, I am gambling - that's why I'm a retard - but more than that, imagine, hopping onto the wildest ride in stock market history. One day, I will have gotten over my bankruptcy and I can look back and...

I'm back, homies!

Man, it's crazy but I finally finished The Idiot. It took what, six months? I don't even remember when I started it but it was a while ago - it was a few books ago too,...
