Peter dinklage

It's a shame about Peter dinklage. He is an absolutely PHENOMENAL actor. Honestly imo the best one in game of thrones. But he doesnt get a shot to really showcase his talents. Not because he's short so not considered, but because roles are often created and then the actor to suit is searched for. Peter only fills a small portion of roles available, and more often than not, any role where a short person may be the best choice is when they are a primary role in the story (and their height plays an influencing factor in the plot) or they have them as a side character. I don't recall seeing one movie where a short person plays the main role but their height isn't of any relativity in the story. Albeit that could be because humans will create challenges for short people regardless of the situation/environment, but regardless, it is truly all a shame.

grim world

The world is so full of death.  I saw a rainbow the other morning driving to work and thought, what a good start to the day. I turned down Fairchild, and the neighborhood skunk was dead in the road. Later that day, Collin had to have Zeus put down. Today, my brother called me in tears because his friends bearded dragon died while they were watching him. If there's good in the world I'm seeing less and less of it everywhere I look.

The Acid Horror Picture Show

Well it's been almost a year of preaching my thoughts to a non-existent audience, and to celebrate I will share the beginning of a story I wrote. A story outlining my descent into an acid induced stage of lunacy. I never finished the final chapter as it contained so much it's hard to articulate, but maybe one day I will. The Descent to Psychosis or the Ladder to Enlightenment The following is a written summarization of a mindset that began following a bad acid trip, and grew to consume my mind during a trip more as trips went on. I recently learned of a theory on the universe which helped me put my thoughts into words and connect the previously unexplainable to understandable reality. The theory that I found is the ‘Zoo Hypothesis’, and is a response to the Fermi Paradox, which claims that there should be evidence of extraterrestrial life, simply because of how large the universe is. The Zoo Hypothesis states that the reason we are not able to find any signs of extraterrestria

down to insanity

"It's not going to kill you" Ben told him. He'd heard it several times before, that it's perfectly safe, it won't kill you or give you flashbacks every time you crack your back.  Ben continued on about how it makes you feel like a kid again, full of curiosity and joy, and it seemed like Nick was starting to come around on the matter.  "Well maybe I'll try one and see how it goes." Nick said as he took a small piece of paper and placed it on his tongue. The next day, Nick was awestruck. Why are people so against this? It's wonderful, everyone should try it and then maybe we would all come together and make peace instead of war. He started taking it every few months, wanting to keep the magic but not overdo it.  A couple years went by with nothing out of the ordinary until one day, when Nick had a life changing trip. It wasn't life changing in the sense of becoming a new person, or becoming some higher entity, but it opened his eyes to some
