I think the bicycle helmet discourse really just reinforces the idea that people believe that accidents only happen to the stupid and careless, and that people who get hurt somehow deserve it. And since nobody wants to believe themselves to be stupid, or thinks they could be careless or distracted, it's not necessary to take precautions.

And then they take safety advice as an insult because telling someone to be safe is seen as an accusation of being stupid and irresponsible, and not just a value neutral acknowledgement of statistical inevitably. We see it with masks, and seatbelts, and now bicycle helmets because everyone wants to believe they're too clever to get hurt, and too lucky to get hurt badly, until suddenly you're not and you have to resign, in shame, to being one of the people you previously saw as annoying nags, assuming you're even still alive.

I love how different forms of art are all obsessed with each other. A book tries to capture the feeling of music, a painting tries to depict a scene in a book, a song tries to paint a picture. And it's always insufficient. No single form of art can encapsulate another form of art and capture the essence of it – but it tries, and its attempts are impossibly compelling. All the forms of art are in love with each other and spend so much time trying to express what makes the other kinds of art so lovely.

never forget what they took from you (blooper reels)

Having fun imagining alien abductions as higher dimensional beings rescuing us from some sort of comical superspatial hazard we can't even perceive or comprehend, like having to hold a raccoon down and put grease on its neck to get its head unstuck from a peanut jar

"Fuck, man, I know we're not supposed to touch these things but did you see him? He was totally covered in a Neuemann-Andrugtshang Field and he didn't even know. Just drenched. Did you see how fucked up he looked? Poor thing, scared half to death. I need to go wash my hands."
