poor davy jones
Watching Davy Jones die in Pirates 4, I can’t help but feel a slight tinge of sorry somehow….
I mean, its not like the lot of ‘em are exactly upstanding, moral examples of humanity right? Its like after seeing Hector Barbossa go to the “good side”, why can’t the romantic Davy Jones make the switch too..? Too evil? Is there such a thing as too evil? And what of...
"The Father That Shot His Daughter's Computer" -... →
From the article:
Is she going to change? Not likely, and it’s not evident what about her needs to change except her address. No, I don’t mean she has to flee, I mean she has to grow up, so does he, both of the dummies involved violated one of the cardinal rules of family: don’t disparage someone in the family to someone outside the family. If you need me to explain this...

500 words
Five hundred words. Okay. Here we go.
So one healthy information diet strategy that Clay Johnson suggested yesterday that we need to balance out information consumption with information production. Because when you only consume information without producing information you tend to be easily swayed about by whatever information comes your way. I tend to agree. Because if the only thing you do is...

I love my mom. But I hate how it seems she’s more vocal about how disappointed she is in me than about how proud she is of me. Yet I do fully realize that there’s nothing that she yearns more to see than to see me be successful in life.
Its like its all this fucked up paradox but really its not.
She has made it clear that she doesn’t mind me going out tonight. Yet here I am....
Don’t listen to me. For fuck’s sake don’t lsten to me. Leave me the fuck alone.

berisik tauukk..! [taikk.]
Curhat tuh di Tumblr; gak boleh di Twitter. Twitter tuh impersonal. Di Tumblr pun gak boleh ada yang follow. Berisik tauk.

I sense dishonor whenever someone suggests me a ‘practical household to-do item’ in an aloof tone-of-voice….
In other words, i take obvious ‘braindead’ advice as a diss….
No I don’t think this is a good thing.
No more gaming; the World orders me to fall in line.
I’m never playing a serious PC videogame ever again. Not because I don’t want to but because there are simply more ‘important’ (read: ‘money making’) things to do and lollygagging is a big no no in this sphere. Already I feel I’ve lost most of my feel for good multipath narratives….
….But...

Ini bocah-bocah iklan angkatan muda pada pesimis-pesimis sinis najis gitu dah? Pada kesel & stres semua campaign-nya pada gatot apah? Blegug siak.
Makin gak nyambung sama audiens, makin kecewa, makin gagal, makin sinis, makin gak nyambung lagi…. lingkaran setan.
Udah gitu beberapa dari mereka udah beberapa kali menang award lagi. Makin pongah di menaranya asik sendirilah mereka....
30 Surreal Photos Of A Chinese Sex Toy Factory →
From the comments:
A: I want to start a band called Chinese Fuck Doll Factory
B: You’ll get signed in about 20 seconds.
C: First single “Your lifeless eyes say yes, your gaping mouth also says yes.” Perfect for Valentines Day.
D: C, how about the second single: “It’s not rape if you’re dead”
Jakarta Spy Thriller
If Ludlum could create a whole thriller universe out of the Cold War, then how come the best Humanity has come up with so far for Jakarta ‘65 was ‘The Year of Living Dangerously’..?

Yeah, yeah; it’s just for fun I understand :)) Matthew Inmam’s The Oatmeal is like that. That doesn’t automatically make me sympathize with these sentiments, though.

stay away from G+
I am somewhat gladdened that quite a few civilians and uptight hipsters are beginning to label Google+ radioactive no-man’s-land. (…Now, to get Spammers, Trolls, & Griefers to think the same….)
dumbing down history
Quoting a cranky, old man on Google+:
Watching a little of the beginning of Gladiator , which I haven’t seen in forever. It has the same anachronistic narrative base as Scott’s recent take on Robin Hood , along with a raftload of other mediocre-to-crap historical film and television. That one being “One lone brave man/woman tries to bring REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY/THE END OF...
stupid | do
It is way too easy to label another person stupid without even giving a cursory half-hearted investigation into the way said person’s mind is structured or operates or somesuch.
Over-estimation is also just as easy though, unfortunately….
So.
Don’t let anybody tell you you’re too stupid to do anything :)) Just do…. and be aware that you can always do better.

The point of copyright....
From Mother Jones’ link-baity article on the “idiots” that “shouldn’t be regulating the Internet”:
The point of IP law […] (has) always been about the income stream an author can get from selling copies of his or her work.

Why bother with intergenerational equity if we can’t even ensure equity between gender, social groups TODAY?

Because we chip away at any stone we can chip TODAY, rather than not fight for anything at all.

Review #republiktwitter di Filmindonesia.or.id →
Review ini relatif cerdas sih… tapi…
Hmm…. jadi Gayus, Bakrie, Denny Indrayana, NasDem, Prabowo, Demokrat dan SBY sudah tidak lagi terpengaruh oleh gonjang-ganjing Twitter gitu..? :)) Alhamdullilah lah kalau begitu :))
Iya, Twitter sudah tidak lagi penentu arah politik Negara Indonesia, tapi rasanya terlalu naif kalau menganggap para petualang politik sudah semuanya kapok...
I will never be the best musician in the World. Nor the best computer grapic artist. Writer. Social scientist.
But that does not mean I cannot play music, draw, write prose, or write personal field notes.
The best musician in the World cannot play all of the World’s music all by himself. The same with all the World’s Übermensch.
The World is big enough and we all have our place....

(Fictional) Whitney Houston suicide note
A life of addiction, predilection, pure fiction. Everything moves in the same path, searching for the same thing, music becomes a package, just a package to be packaged over and over gain. Feelings become gossip, the truth becomes a lie. Everything twists and twists until all you can do is say: I love my life but I hate living. I love my life but I hate being alive, in a world full of...
earning a PhD....
Having a PhD doesn’t show you have wisdom; all it (kinda-sorta) guarantees is that you (at one time) have the socio-intellectual capacity to navigate a highly specialized academic merit structure and identify the key factors needed to gather necessary mastery of certain theories/models/intellectual-social-symbols [well-regarded within said merit structure] as to be considered a well-adjusted...

banal oversimplification
Life is not just about sex. Communication is not just about influence. You can’t squeeze reality to fit your banal simplification machine. There are things beyond your senses. Over-rationalize at your peril.
Sure adapt your tactics to current situation but life does not consist solely of your ‘this moment’. You’ve been blinded by your fear of the infinite. You can’t...
I bet noone will notice I’m here unless I post at Twitter, Facebook, or Google+.
…But no one will notice I’m here if I only post at this Tumblr.

“I think if somebody has to make an artistic work, he will finish it no matter...”
– A quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi, from an interview done by The 99 Percent webzine. Quoted via curiositycounts.
Note: I do not agree that Ms Satrapi is saying, “The Majority is always wrong,” in the quote. The way I see it she is saying that you can’t deny your own...
I've switched my twitter account.
…From Lemi4 to L3mia. I still own both though.
“Don’t you get angry!” | Don’t you be so defensive!
“I would rather die!” | As if you’re the only one that wants to kill yourself?
Sometimes I wonder what maturity means when even my mom acts like a FUCKING CHILD!! >:(

Whatever you might say, you’ll have to admit that the Warpig is a very passionate man. The Ninja also loves his country very much, which is why he absolutely hates all the shit dealings in this country. Surino, you can’t fool surino ‘cuz you will never convince him without absolutely uncontriveable facts. And he will find out for himself. And Reja…. he’s seen both...
