do you mean is there a singularly true morality versus morality being an entirely personal and subjective construct, or do you mean is it possible to live life by a rigid moral code with built-in answers to every situation which are absolute versus the same act can be moral or immoral depending on context, and the morality of all situations is particular to the factors in any given scenario?

the first one

for example, if you think that the over-reaching idea of morality is doing the most good for the most amount of people possible in each situation that would be a universal principal. however, if you think the value of persons are not based on their absolute number (even factoring in things like age, i'm not saying you can't have an distinction between people even in the first scenario it just can't be based on moral concepts) but on some other concept of worthiness that would be subjective

that's just an example i'm not saying those are the two choices. in fact that example is overly vague and i'd ask you to be more specific e.g. what concept of worthiness would you go by

if you were able to change a moment in your life what would it be

and don't give me some shit 'everything bad has made me who i am and was worth it <3 <3' thing i'm just saying what was some shitty mistake you made or bad habit etc you fell into and would have liked to have handled differently, or situation that happened that could have been better (e.g. i wish my parents divorce wouldn't have been so nasty)

Not really, but I do have anxiety attacks at night sometimes that will keep me from sleeping.

if i had it to do all over again, i would have just been okay with break-ups; i would know when to quit. i had a bad habit of finding myself with weak guys who needed weak girls to not feel so weak. and we rode those relationships into the ground.

i am sure i dated some perfectly nice guys, but i cringe when i think of the time i wasted and fretted on mending relationships with no hope instead of doing anything for myself.

mostly a ton of black metal
i still listen to a lot of carly rae because her album from last year and her b-side thing form this year is literally perfect pop music

i only watch superhero stuff anymore :[

i've been reading a lot of books about communism and leftist politics in general
embarrassingly i am in the middle of A People's History of the US for the first time at the age of 33. I read everything Marx wrote earlier this year and a lot of stuff by and about members of the black panther party. I need to start cataloging it all on goodreads again

It was Muse but they're dead to me now

I still listen to Love Club off Lorde's album, I like that song
