As if to complement my terrible mood, I spilled soda on basically everything I own with an incomprehensibly large splash from a bottle falling off my desk. I did what I could to clean it but everything's going to be sticky forever.

It doesn't make a bit of difference (guys) how smart you are if you have such low self-discipline.
It's not like I'm doing anything else, jesus.

"Hi, do you want to sign a petition to ask Obama to go to some kind of conference on climate change?"
Yeah sure okay, no problem, I can spare two seconds.
Ohhhh wait, this asks for my address and email! How about that, you're just trying to sign me up for your do-gooder charity newsletters or some fuck. Yeah, screw you guys, I hope Obama increases pollution just to spite you.

Half of the exam was on chapter 14 which nobody knew how to do, and wasn't supposed to be on the exam according to the syllabus.
Only 3 people did better than 70%. I got a 44%.
He's not going to scale it, though.

I might start a new blog, one where I actually talk about things, like to an audience.
I have a lot of things I like to think about, so.
I'm debating whether to put them in quasi-entertaining video format, since that would probably get me more attention.
I wrote down a list of topics I could "vlog" about with enough stuff to say, and it's really long:
Bad comments, Cognitive science, Japan/"Weeaboo," Criticism, Education, Advertisement, Youtube, Smartness, Futurism, Irony, Assertiveness, Status Games, Friendships, Novels, "Experience Design," Memes/"Word stickiness," Mental Illness, Fandom, Religion, Popular Science, Game Journalism, Gender, Health, Violence, Activism/Charity, Moral Opinions, The Word "Liberal," AI in Fiction, Fascination with Money, Aesthetics/"Liking things," "The Armchair Mentality," Holidays/Family, Zombies and Vampires.
I'm sure there's even more stuff, but that's a pretty good start.
One thing I'd absolutely want to avoid is that kind of ur-pessimism that pervades the internet.
But, it's pretty hard to deliver good commentary without complaining.
I could also talk about things I like, like game music or exalted or something. We'll see.

It's so "okay" that it's not even worth existing.

Nobody did NES music better than Konami. You might think otherwise, but I don't think there's much room for real disagreement here.

Moral language persuades best when opinions are not yet formed, which is why writers of children’s literature can get away with saying things like, “Mr. Billings was an awful, horrible man with a heart of stone.” This sounds like a line from a children’s book because it employs persuasive methods that, though appropriate for children, would insult the intelligence of most adult readers.
Most moral discourse is the conversational equivalent of children’s literature. Disputants speak to one another—or, rather, at one another—as if their interlocutors failed to pay adequate attention on the day elementary morality was explained. Unaware of the projective nature of value, they marvel at their opponents’ blindness, their utter failure to see what is so perfectly obvious. Not knowing what else to do, they scold their opponents as if they were children, and scold them as if they were belligerent children when they fail to respond the first time.

I'm always blown away by how slow time moves when I study.
There's a common lament that enjoyable things go by so quick, and frustrating things seem to drag on.
In my case, it just means I'm pleasantly surprised at how much I overestimated the time it would take me to go through some material.
