you could probably just read chap 4 by itself and get most of it without reading the previous parts of the book. i mean you def lose some context but the history itself is really interesting and the author's exploration of possible reasons why these things have declined/vanished or at least gone underground (like torture, looking at you George W. Bush) in just a few hundred years. also a good history of human sacrifice (like, literal human sacrifice)

is accomplishments just a fancy disguise word for things we did today?

Accomplishment is such a charged term.

Some people go through their entire lives and don't feel they 'accomplished' anything.

yesterday i went to the gym, which is an accomplishment in itself what with how hard it can be to motivate myself to go lately. i climbed the equivalent of 103 flights of stairs and did 100 leg presses (25@90 pounds, 25 @100, 25@110, and 30@120). i also did 36 military presses and 3 pull ups. i almost felt like ralphing, but i felt good.

had classes from 8-11. transcribed about half of a lecture, took me like 2 1/2 hours. still have to do the rest. then i studied today's materials, all about the different types of aphasias (language disorders) inlcuding signs and symptoms, etiology, what parts of the brain are affected, etc

then i had another class at 4 and now it's 7pm and i drove for an hour to another campus and my last class of the day is about to start

I was credited as the second-most calm evacuee in the wake of a relatively minor plane crash.



Only some eleven-year-old kid died, though I honestly don't feel that being crushed by the drinks cart really counts as an aviation fatality.

Today I made a specially mayonaise-y potato salad.
I call it the King of Disco salad.

I don't get the pineapple hate. I wouldn't say it's like my favorite pizza topping but it's good.

Been having a crappy day too. Feeling really restless and irritable for whatever reason.

Can at least offer some sympathy to Bonnie.

My sister withdrew from her classes. She's on another trip downhill and I don't know how or what to do to stop it. I'm just waiting for the day where I found out she has passed
