If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
That of the total of Earth's life (about 4.5 Ga - Billion years), evidence for life on Earth only goes back around ~500Ma (with some contentious journals suggesting 800Ma for a single celled organism).

...juuust over 10% of Earth's history has life been around, and don't even make me get the decimal places out for hominids in total.

I dunno, ask me shit about Asian history or the evolution of language/linguistics and I could talk to you for fuckin' days

In terms of the first, probably something along the lines of of Tomb of Qin Shi Huang, which is believed to be a danger to any archaeologists that may dig it up in the future because it is believed to be covered with traps (the mechanical ones would no longer work, naturally) along with a moat of mercury around the dead Emperor';s body.

In terms of the second, probably that Finnish is more closely related to Japanese and Korean than it is to Swedish and Danish.

the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.
Male dolphins surround the females and deny them food and space to move until they're given sex. It's basically aquatic sexual slavery.

I neither fear, nor despise.
Most interesting?

Hmmm. Well I do find the parallels of the Jewish custom of marriage when compared to the gospel of Christ extremely interesting.

School-wise? Nothing because they're telling you the same shit over and over.

In general? Nothing, I haven't had the chance to learn anything "cool" or "interesting"

This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but a whimper.
From an academic point of view: the perspective that the Great Depression was actually caused by bad monetary policy, not rampant speculation I was taught.

From a personal point of view: psychopathology. Specifically antisocial and narcissistic personality disorders.

Oh, hey.

Both you and Psy mentioned psychopathology.

Any good places to read a bit on it?

When I taught myself how to whistle, it felt like a great accomplishment to feel that I can do it.

Latin language is by far the most interesting to me. Other subjects such as mathematics (although I am not proficient) and writing are becoming a hobby that I learned to have a greater respect for and want to learn furthermore on my own.

The Dazexiang Uprising was started because the penalty for tardiness was the same as the penalty for rebellion - death.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
In terms of the second, probably that Finnish is more closely related to Japanese and Korean than it is to Swedish and Danish.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
