Monday Morning Commute: Behold, the Albatross!

Monday Morning Commute. Every Monday I’m going to detail the various things I’m either currently or will be watching, reading, playing, and listening to in the next seven days. It’s Monday. You’ve got a long week of school, work, or compulsive masturbation to get through. Tell me the arts that you’re indulging in, to stave off suicide.

Watching / Breaking Bad, Season One

Iron rusts from disuse; stagnant water loses its purity and in cold weather becomes frozen; even so does inaction sap the vigor of the mind. So we must stretch ourselves to the very limits of human possibility. Anything less is a sin against both God and man.

Reading / The United States and the Origins of the Cold War by John Lewis Gaddis

Everything is broken. You realize that, right? You know it…Deep down. And you’re saying to yourself: Girl, bad things happen to good people every day! And I am saying to you…Yes, but that’s the proof. Don’t you see it? That’s it. Everything is broken. Everything.

Good people are victims. Bad people are heroes. Dumb is a virtue. Food is poison. Corruption is a national past time. Rapists rape. The poor are left to rot. Religion is a business. No one is safe and everyone thinks it’s funny.

You say you’re a force of chaos and that you don’t plan anything. It just happens. But I’ve read your files and everything’s a plan. So what is it this time? Because I don’t think you know what chaos is. Chaos is needing someone to change your feeding tube. Chaos is not being able to go to the toilet without help.
