I thought I could write something worse and came up with this. it was not really a good idea. (i modified it so no one makes my mistake by blindly copy and pasting it. hopefully.)

if [[ -f ~./kitten.sh ]] #     if the file kitten exists
    then killall -KILL kitten.sh || touch ./kitten #    kill all kittens. if that fails, touch kitten.
fi;
echo "Killed kitten... )"; #    announce the terrible deed.
# bash kitten.sh; #    runs this kitten script again. do not remove # symbol at start of this line, unless you want to have a bad time.
# it will make this run repeatedly. you monster.

First watch these:

• Star Wars Holiday Special
• The Ewok Adventure
• Ewoks: The Battle for Endor

When you have finished those, you should be filled with hate and suffering. You will welcome the dark side. Now you are ready.

Start watching

• The Phantom Menace.

Stop watching before the pod race ends.

Play the videogame

• Star Wars: Pod Racer.

Crash the first pod race, killing little Anakin.

Congratulations!

You’ve stopped the evil Sith lords from rising to power. You’ve saved the Ewoks. You’ve saved Jarjar. Balance in the universe remains balanced. You truly are one with the force. You are ready for the light side.

Watch

• Clone Wars

The animated series that aired on Cartoon Network. Not “The Clone Wars”!!! That’s different. Don’t watch that one. It sucks. You want the one made by Genddy Tartakovski, known for his masterpieces, Samurai Jack and Dexter’s Laboratory and his pivotal work in the series The Powerpuff Girls.

You wont need to watch anything else.

You wont want to watch anything else.

Ever.

my guess is a little bit before and for a minute or so after turning the curve.

i suppose a caveat of the ‘you do you’ mentality, should include no interefering or infringing on the rights and actions of others, but the more people there are in any given area, the harder that becomes as far as resources and personal space are concerned.

i do feel that realizing when you are being an asshole or not doing enough is a step in the right direction. it may lead to you being motivated to attempt change for something better. maybe what might seem like not enough, is seen by someone else and inspires them to change just a tiny bit for the better.

there’s that saying ‘an eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind’ (except that last one eyed person but all the blind people finding their way with sticks are sure to poke that out eventually) but the opposite of that is something like ‘one good deed deserves another’.

maybe if enough people strive to do just a little bit more to effect positive change in the world, no matter how insignificant, others might see it and might decide to do the same. i like to hope it grows and turns into a movement, where everyone lifts people up before putting anyone down, until we all have the same respect and responsibility for everything else. or something like that. i can dream!

I’ve frequently said that i am incapable of thinking inside the box. it’s a reference to a common interview question about whether or not a candidate can think outside the box. i believe most people start off like this, outside the box looking in. by the time they reach adulthood (or earlier) and begin looking for work, oftentimes they have become boxed in, now looking out from the inside of their structured life and the system which creates the walls. the walls don’t really exist, they are metaphors for what society deems to be within the realm of what is normal and what is not. i have a developmental disorder effecting my short term memory and learn through repetition until something becomes a muscle memory moreso than through study and training like one would find in schools or when starting a new job.

i think a lot of people are more like me without realizing it, which creates a sort of contradiction in my argument here, as the majority decides what is and is not inside the box. it might be better to assume there is no box, that the greater good is part of the walls, that doing what feels right is more important than doing what the world claims is right. more simply, you do you. you can go with the flow until landing in a majestic ocean or you can throw a rock into the river from the bank and laugh at the watery explosion. in the long run, the river will be unaffected, it will find ways to continue flowing until the stream has dried up. it is what it is. if you want meaningful change, get a bunch of friends and divert the river with lots of rocks. alternatively find those whose thoughts align and build momentum into a tsunami. maybe just float on, hoping things will continue going the right way, maybe the path is set regardless. your choices in life might mean nothing. they might mean everything. you don’t even have to make a choice, just you do you, as best as you can or want to.

to answer your question slightly more specifically, i’m probably a problem for current society. i use electricity, although i try to limit it. i create garbage, but try to minimize it. i don’t work but not for lack of trying, i simply lack the qualifications and abilities to do anything useful for a paycheck in my area. so i spend my time doing things on my computer of little consequence and alternate that with walking around my neighborhood, picking up trash. i also bite the hand that feeds me, by protesting the actions of my government while at the same time being reliant on the programs and benefits it provides. i hope i can help enact the changes needed for society as i see it, to become more like a society i’d like to be in, by going downtown and holding a sign stating that the president should be hung for treason and his main lackey should be deported, hoping that enough people see it and agree with the statement, to the extent and reach that takes the box i’m outside of and inverts it, so that i can be inside the box for once. much like a cat in a box, there is no change or purpose when i’m inside or outside, other than perhaps minor comfort, the illusion of safety and (because it’s a cat) a sense of superiority. is that helpful? probably not. i’m doing me. you do you. if you happen to be a straight woman between the ages of 32 and 52 and live in the US near the Miami Valley, maybe you could also do me. (that last line ruins this whole comment and i should omit it)

I’m proud of the fact I don’t know who that is and even more proud that I don’t care if anyone thinks that is not impressive. I hate that I learned who poodiepie is and have yet to meet any fans that weren’t mentally challenged. It is a waste of space in my brain and I would happily live under a rock if it meant I didn’t have to know about the existance of vapid, self-centered, so-called “youtube celebrities”. They add nothing to this world of any value and wouldn’t be missed.

I try to follow a set of rules which define how i should live my life written in my own words, which essentially restate the golden rule/10 commandments/fundamental tenets/etc. I read them as myself, as if I’m giving advice to myself. Pronouns can be tricky. I don’t follow them perfectly and often will tweak the wording, hoping to avoid misinterpretation.

I call them my veritaclaritives. (veritas + clarus = loud and clear truth; probably bad latin)

• Always look out for #1

• Always be prepared for a #2 (e.g. romance, friendships, shit)

• Only desire what you require

• It’s only theft if they need it more than you (emphasis on NEED)

• Create more than you consume

• Help people up, more and before you put anyone down

• Treat everyone as a friend until they prove otherwise (emphasis on both THEY and PROVE; the golden rule)

• Make amends with your friends, before an unexpected end (r.i.p. Nivec)

• Keep your friends close, be your own worst enemy

• If thoughts of any enemy anger you, you’ve already lost (note plural)

• Destroy enemies until they are unable to do you harm

• All enemies can be defeated through unconditional love.
