Sending in a new Tulpa named Kania to address all of Earth as of 11:17.
Kania: _"We warned you, humanity. You made grave mistakes throughout history that which you cannot easily redeem. Given the drastic escalation of your pitiless moves at each other as of late, you have sparked the latest soon-to-be tragedy that will be the annihilation of all known civilizations you call it home. It is not about why you really want to do this, but what you really want to achieve. Your continuing quarreling of one another will only quicken your own species' doom, whilst we observe with disbelief at the very prospect of a catastrophe you long thought to hold it back."
"You sown what you reap for conquest, only to find no reward for your bloodied hands, the very world you walked on for many a millennia as a result of your ultimate undoing will be reclaimed in time by the forces of nature. Fail to heed this all you want, but this bitter tone is an omen of your impending tribulation to come."_

I had a thought some time ago, which I think originates from me randomly thinking of Xidnaf again. For those who don't know, his is a now-dormant YouTube channel that covered various topics in linguistics, and one of these was (probably~) Directionality in the Australian Aboriginal languages. See, while everyone else we know of has at least two ways to express direction - one relative to objects, one relative to the entire earth - Aborigines only have the latter, meaning they have to constantly keep mind of the direction they're facing.
Obviously, this creates problems in the modern world. Sure, we have GPS and smartphones today, but it's not ideal for the hypothetical traveler to need to check her compass all the time.
I wondered, what if it weren't like that? What if train cars were equipped with compasses from the early days of industry, and we made gyros cheap and wrist-mountable by the 20th century? Better yet, what if the landing to a staircase, or the exit to an elevator were adorned with compasslike patterns inlaid into the floor? Then even the poorest citizens could orient themselves with just a quick glance at their feet.
I found it an interesting thought, at least. Might incorporate it into my stories someday, perhaps an ace pilot from a shattered people... 
Backlash All that sounds more difficult than just adding some words to the vocabulary ^^' It's interesting though. I don't really know anything about the Aboriginals, but I suppose a lack of vocabulary for relative positioning kinda implies that they never had to deal with organising small objects.
random thought. random rant I guess?
But I guess people who know me and have seen my posts back in the day. I was pretty depressed back in the day.
I am glad to say that I have finally gotten professional help and medication for my depression. I just wish I did this 5 years ago 
Good afternoon people, it's been a while since my last post here. To be honest i'm always changing and somehow i feel i'm always represented by this thread, it's hilarious. I love reading your thoughts, keep it up <3
malmon Tried smoking. Could do it for a while but these days I just throw up from it. Tastes ass. Vaping is interesting but not my thing.
