three from the dark side

Sometimes the truth is so perfect that it leaves you speechless, simply because there is nothing to be added or subtracted, nothing to do but admire its terrible beauty even as it rips out your still-beating heart and sterilizes the bleeding cavity.

People can get used to anything .... If you do something often enough and for long enough, no matter how trivial or painful or useless or self-defeating or just plain stupid, it changes you. It becomes part of you, part of who you are, and you keep doing it, because that's who you are now.

Utopias are delicious! Taste like chicken.
