Very accurate, my exact reaction every time I hear this song!

S'all good, we have the Second Cold War instead. Well, for everyone but Ukraine...

Must feel something like this to them.

Da, e legată de turul doi, de ce cred - de ce-mi urlă creierul - că se va întâmpla. De Simion președinte, care va distruge orice potențial ca România să fie altceva față de ce-a fost. De toți susținătorii lui, care abia așteaptă să fie dezlănțuiți asupra celor care nu sunt de-acord cu ei.

Mă tem de mai am un pic și mă cac pe mine, fără exagerare, și nici nu știu ce pula mea să fac în cazul în care ajungem iar în Fascism.

(Altundeva n-am știut unde să las asta, și tre' să dau afară din mine)

And it still won't save them... the only way we'll get through this is by working together.

There was a time when I was certain that this sort of people will inevitably see that money will not save anyone from anything. Given how things are evolving, however, I've become convinced that they'll still be thinking of profit margins as the planet literally starts boiling and their skin starts to melt.

Masses of desperate people have a short memory... Ask me how I know (Romanian)...

I get the feeling that even Jesus would choose emulation :-?

Real or not, I still say not calling it "AI Wrangler" is a major miss...

No. Murder is murder. There is no rationalising one's way around it. There is no acceptable context for killing someone other than immediate self-defence, which is not the case when discussing things in terms of justice systems.

Killing is never justice.

As long as we have the option to separate and isolate, nobody deserves to be killed. The death penalty is nothing more than formalised murder, however one chooses to look at it.

This is one of the few advantages of "obscure" (in this case, Romanian) languages: they're unpopular enough that scam messages are ridiculously obvious due to their nonsensical grammar and structure.

I've received a lot of fake DHL delivery emails, it was hilarious to read how my supposed transaxle is begging me to pay its customs fees.

Because knowing about something means starting to see its limits, its constraints, thus rendering said something into a finite 'chamber,' and my chamber feels like it's growing smaller the more I know of other chambers.

We had this poet-philosopher in Romania back in the 1910s-1960s (-ish), Lucian Blaga, who had an interesting philosophy about knowledge which merged the rational concept of Knowledge with the somewhat artistic sense of Knowing. In his view, there were two types of knowledge, Luciferian knowledge and Paradisian knowledge: Luciferian knowledge was, essentially, the Concrete, that which can be fully conceptualised, and Paradisian knowledge was closer to a feeling of Understanding without having the concept which is understood - he takes it to near magical levels in his explorations of the concept, but it's essentially a sort of Intuition+.

Now, the dude had some controversial views and leanings in a period of immense political turmoil (we were in the process of squeezing ourselves out of being a Monarchy and he kinda' sided with the Monarchists), but his poetry mostly reflects a sense of humbleness before the wonders of the world, a deep sense of apreciation for all that exists (with very obvious religious undertones, but it never felt dishonest), and a desire to keep it that way. His theory about knowledge is best represented through his poetry (Eu nu strivesc corola de minuni a lumii being his most well-known and his most relevant in this sense).

I don't fully agree with the guy, nor am I an avid reader of his poetry (I respect it, but it's not my jam), but this realisation reminded me that there has been at least one other person who felt it. Trouble is, my brain needs information constantly, so off I go to suck the Vastity right outta my world!

Edit: I think this has primarily to do with the fact that creativity and intuition are both very pronounced in my cognition, and they start being left idle more and more as concrete conceptualisation takes shape and the more rational processes take over the bulk.
