#In tempi bui/In dark times
“In tempi bui il nobile si ritira nella sua virtù, non accetta cariche pubbliche né emolumenti in modo da non confondersi con il malgoverno…”
I Ching
“In dark times, the noble retreats into his virtue, accepting neither public office nor emoluments, lest he be confused with bad government…”

#Dovere confuso/Confused duty
Spesso confondiamo il dovere con ciò che compiono gli altri e non ciò che noi stessi dobbiamo compiere.
Oscar Wilde
We often confuse duty with what others do, not what we ourselves must do.

Some butterflies adapted to have second ‘heads’ that confuse predators
A new evolutionary analysis of butterflies finds “false heads” arose from the coalescence of multiple traits
Summary
A new study reveals the evolutionary origin of “false heads” on butterfly wings. These deceptive markings, often featuring eyespots and antenna-like tails, didn’t arise from a single mutation, but rather from the gradual accumulation of multiple traits over time. Researchers used…

I told myself I was going to give up on talking about this because it’s been so long, but it’s still itching at my mind so I guess I’m not done
It’s just the whole thing with that anon I had, and the number of unanswered questions I have about that whole situation - who were they? why were they so secretive? what made them show up? what made them disappear? did I repel them somehow? were they messing with me for fun, or was it something more?
The whole thing leaves me dissatisfied because I wish I had answers to any of those questions, but since that anon has been gone so long it looks like those answers are never going to arrive, and not having them frustrates me, because I can’t make sense of the situation without them

I feel like a loser lately
My internship date is approaching dangerously soon, yet I have not prepared myself with work settings and necessary knowledge like I have intended. I’m just laying around all day doing nothing, completely aware that I am wasting precious time because..
“This is all of my sem break that I’ve got.”
I wish I do not have this mindset. I wish I am not a huge procrastinator and a denier. It is one thing to acknowledge oneself as being a procrastinator but it is also important to not be in denial about it. I am worse as I am both.
I haven’t gotten out much either. No meeting with university friends other than two times, no hanging out with former secondary school friends (I reflected that some of these people sucks btw). My savings are running down like water stream down the creek.
I have been noticeably moody ever since I visited my internship place. I’m not talking with my family members (I have got emotional issues with them as well). I am avoiding them for many reasons but internship placement is one of them.
I don’t know what is going to happen to me. Will I continue my ‘gifted’ success and plough through obstacles with nothing but sheer fucking will? Will I succumb to the challenges on my knees and pray to god to take me instead? I. don’t. know.
The only other thing that’s constant right now, is my nervous system in a knot.
