Hate vs Love

Which is stronger? Im on a roll today. Lots of thoughts in my head today. Anyways, I was watching some piano/organ music and came across a song called hate. In the comments, I saw somebody note that hate is stronger than love. That got me thinking.
Which is truly stronger? I err on the side of hate here. I'm sure most would not want to admit this fact, but love is quite fragile. The smallest of actions can make or break love. All it takes to end a relationship is to have sex with somebody other than you partner. Hell, it doesn't even take that. Sometimes it just disappears out of boredom. Sometimes when a better person comes along, it changes. Hate is not so fickle and weak. There is little one can do to change the hate whithin somebody. It's depicted in fiction all the time. Once you fall into hate, it's remarkebly hard to get out. It's incredibly easy for those on the side of love to make the switch though. It takes a lot for somebody to truly hate something, but love can be instantaneous. Especially if you believe in love at first sight. Sure, love has the potential to be strong, but hate is innately stronger. That's why villains are basically always stronger in fiction than the heroes. Love is the underdog to Hate's topdog. We love seeing the underdog take on the top dog and win. The underdog can win, but it is innately weaker.
Love is the perfect underdog to hate's topdog.

Incels are equal parts interesting and sad

I was watching a video made by TL;DR. Who makes amazing evidence driven videos on youtube. He decided to talk about the issue of social isolation and how that affects incels. He made some interesting points that got me thinking. I would definitely recommend the video if you have some interest in the subject yourself. Personally, I find incels to be rather pitiable, but interesting nonetheless. Incels are entirely unique to the modern era. Sure, there may have been incels throughout history; however, they were not very vocal about that. We now live in the era where you can be extremely vocal no matter who you are. So maybe these people have always existed, but we are now finding out about them. Either way, it is definitely an interesting study in social interactions between humans. For those that do not know, an incel is an involuntary celibate. Meaning they want to have a romantic partner, but cannot find one. I won't repeat the points made in the TL;DR video. If you want to watch

Laziness

It's been a while yet again since I last kept up with this. Mostly I've just been lazy. The title of this post. Laziness. As is common with me, I find myself wondering who I want to be. I'm a musician now. I play in a band called Gigas and it's alot of fun. That's where I've been focusing alot of my effort, and it's been therapeutic for me much like how this blog was. But it's wrought me a ton of questions. Like whether I want to pursue music as a career. It's something I've pretty much always wanted to do. Ever since I was little. But you know. It's not something to be relied on. So my fall back is law school. Yeah that's right, me a lawyer. It's pretty nuts to think about. But is it what I really want? I find myself dating this girl. And I like her, I really do. But part of me wonders whether I should be with her. Whether I'm at my best at my worst. Weird as that may sound, I often feel it's true. That I'm most miserable

I wish I wasn't different

Sometimes I wish I was born a different person. Someone normal. Without autism or ADHD. Normal. Why? Because no matter how many times your football coach told you being normal sucks, it's better than being abnormal. Being abnormal makes life harder than it already is by a Longshot. Using myself as an example. I had a hell of a childhood. I'll be the first one to say it could've been worse, but alot of the bad parts really stick with me and still hurt me to this day. Constantly marginalized and mocked and laughed at by everyone around you. Imagine a school life where it was rare for anyone to be even remotely nice to you. When they were, it was out of pity rather than actual kindness. Imagine growing up through that and life getting harder in different ways. Being unable to read body language, understand jokes or sarcasm. Hard time with empathy.  Hard time understanding emotion in general. Both yours and others'. Inability to read social situations and act accordingly. I
