I have both and I think it’s better to know, independent of the outcome.

Ceiling, duh.

That’s cheating! Why would I want anything easier :)

I don’t know. I was making rice today and the moment I left kitchen (for a nano second, of course) it burned.

Here’s my today’s rice recipe:

• put some oil in the pot
• put a cup of rice and set the heat to max
• add salt, a clove of garlic and a couple of cardamom seeds
• mix until rice changes colour
• think how well you have everything under control
• blink (I swear the new avatar has nothing to do with it!), take the burnt rice off the stove and throw it away
• realise I forgot my medication
• take another pot and repeat the steps, but avoid blinking
• when drive changed colour, add 1.5 cups of water
• reduce the heat and cover the pot
• realise that the pot is too small
• pour everything into a bigger pot
• add heat
• blink and realise the water is boiling out
• move it from the heat, reduce the heat
• wait
• wait some more
• move the pot back but turn the heat off
• wait 15 minutes
• rice is done!
• realise it’s not salted but take the win and feed your child

Yey, we’re society’s outmost sensory system. I mean we do get to see the world for what it is. And then have the honour to tell folks on the inside how is it out there.

The worst was when it was stolen, while I was travelling, 3 hours before it was time to leave for the airport. Obviously my IDs, tickets, money, were all there.

Lol. Read the title and started giggling. Family asks why I giggle, I tell them and they start laughing.

So yes. After losing everything, including the backpack I always have it with me. It’s a hard rule - the moment I’m far from it, I need something from it.

The contents are pretty much everything I might need during an average day. Keys, vallet, medicines, a notebook and a pen, bandages, headphones, deodorant.

There are other ways of passive or active resistance that is not a direct confrontation.

In the end, it’s still a choice, I’m afraid.

Forced or obeying orders? There’s a difference, you know.
