Taking a little break from this blog. I'm becoming too annoyed with the person I'm becoming.
Lately I've said so much. Now I have to shut up. I have to find answers, instead of answering questions that nobody asked. I need some wisdom. Otherwise I'll be nervous and dumb.
Arrogance is a defense mechanism; those who truly trust themselves are humble and modest.
Finglish. My name is Olli. There are 590 posts in this blog and maybe 2 or 3 of them are well written. I'll do better things in the future.
If something I wrote on this blog insults you, just ask me about it. I may have changed my mind about you. I'm not saying I'm wise, but I think I'm wiser than I used to be. I don't want to be a jerk.

Fucking this shit
Apparently, comically upfront arrogance and cockiness have become my thing. Okay. I guess I stole it from Salvador Dali. He's dead, so I don't think he minds people stealing things from his corpse.
The stars are calling. Going slightly mad.

When you're smart
I read this thread where people (rational skeptics) discuss the sentience of fish, and what the hell. Wow. These people are as intelligent as I am. It feels strange to look at posts written by people that are 1) intellectually honest, 2) absolutely rational yet non-psychopathic, 3) open-mindedly and sincerely looking for answers. This is extremely rare. People like us must make up like 1-2% of the population. Usually when I see people trying to discuss something like this, they're only capable of vomiting out irrational myths, ridiculous psychological defence mechanisms and boring sentimentality.
I give this thread +++++ out of +++++.
If all people were like this, my life would be so much easier and the world would be a much better place. Life would be fun. (Maybe life is fun for so many other people because they are surrounded by their intellectual equals? They live in a world where they feel at home?) I wouldn't have to DUMB DOWN whenever I try to communicate with the rest of the species. I wouldn't have to dumb down when I write about things that matter.
Fuck, could it be possible to come up with technology to increase the general public's intelligence? To somehow improve our brain? Could it be possible to create a world and a society where all people were as smart as the smartest 1-2% of people now are?
Please. Somebody make that happen. I'm tired of looking at the rest of humanity saying idotic things and behaving in completely irrational ways. I want to belong. I want to smile. I want to breathe and feel at peace. I want to be able to communicate.
A world where everybody was as intelligent as I am would of course be quite different from the world we're now living in. There probably wouldn't be any advertisements, for example, because people simply wouldn't obey them. The development of science and art would look amazing.
I'd like to get out of the current dystopia and enter this utopia. Sadly, so far it only exists in my head. I have to enter my head, entirely. Goodbye.

The thing that makes us capable of hurting others: denial
It's keeping us fishing and buying clothes made by child slaves.
My portion of denial seems to be significantly smaller than that of 99% of humans. Did I work hard to get here? I'm not sure. Maybe it simply came with the brain.
By the way, one thing that people almost never understand about evolution: individuals are not working for the survival of their species, they are working for the survival of themselves; their genes. Animals don't give a fuck about their species.
I'm looking at pictures my sister took last May.
Oh spring. I'm glad you're coming.
I mean look at that light. That's what spring looks like. Light, behaving in a certain way.
I have no idea where that street is.
Money can't buy life.
