they should do a remake of the lion king where it’s set in 14th century denmark and all the characters are humans call it “hamlet” or something like that idk i think it could be good
I wonder why we crave infinity so badly. All of our lives are centered so often around legacy, around meaning and profoundness not because they are important to us now, but because they are infinite concepts that we concern our time with. As I glance out my window in my studio, watching time pass by I find there to be such beauty in the temporary nature of existence. The ideas behind principles, morals and ideals I don't have any particular issue with. Life void of meaning is too uncomfortable for us to live. Rather, it is the idea that once we establish something it must last that makes me revolt. Decay may not be beautiful, but often it's necessary. Destroying is another act of creation, if only because it makes room for a new creation.

“In the dusky path of a dream I went to seek the love who was mine in a former life.”
- this achingly beautiful line is from a poem by Tagore that W.B. Yeats selected for inclusion in The Oxford Book of Common Verse. Another reason for dreaming.

do u know how dumb u have to be to rate limit a social media outlet, allowing users to view only 600 posts/day, which can be scrolled through in two minutes. literally sentencing your own platform to death…
