Shimoneta to Iu Gainen ga Sonzai Shinai Taikutsu na Sekai -> SHIMONETA: A Boring World Where the Concept of Dirty Jokes Doesn't Exist

Words have no power. If they did, magic would totally be a thing. It's like cults (including organized religions) seem to think that prayers have some sort of power. They don't. They never did. The only power that exist is within ourselves, be it for good or evil. Some people move mountains. Others want the credit, but not the work. It's society's role to make sure only the second one wins, bonus if the first one moves the mountain and the second takes credit for it.

Child proofing the world neglects the more important task of world proofing the child.

If you want to know who is in charge in your country, it's easy to find out. Just think about who you can't insult.

Curiously enough religions/spirituality/"magic" from places without the written word, or indeed where the written word was introduced comparatively recently, tend to be rather different, usually more internal or nature focused. I leave it to others to ponder what the merits of that might be.

Because I seem to have end these sorts of posts with a music video


Amusingly for me the word association for/complete the sentence for God save the queen is the fascist regime.

The first swear word I've heard was when I was about 6. I heard it from a family member.

I swear a lot, yes that's true but I try not to when I'm with of innocent children but when I'm with nasty children, I swear off the bat.

Its probably about moulding you into a decent member of society. Swearing with friends whilst drunk is inevitable. Swearing when sober, in a public forum and infront of children not in keeping with good respectable behaviour.
