Nevermind I Am Stupid

None of these words are in 120 Days of Sodom

As we celebrate 106 years since the formation of Czechoslovakia today, one of the most important moments in our history, I want to say how much I appreciate how much we are still close, even after 3 decades of having separate countries.

I love how we refer to each other as brothers.

I love that we are the first countries for every new president and the last country for every leaving president to visit.

I love that whenever there is any disaster, we are always among the first countries to offer each other help.

I love how many events, competitions, etc. we hold together.

I love how much cultural space we share.

I love how often I still hear people from both countries say how we never should have separated when meeting people from the other country, even to strangers.

I admit that I used to take so much of this for granted and it's only in recent years that I realized that this is sadly not a usual way to get along after countries separate, especially after seeing how some countries (russia) treat their neighbors, or learning more about how tragic some separations were, like with former Yugoslavia for example. This just makes me appreciate so much more how we managed to separate in a completely civil way and keep our relations so strong.

May it always be so!

Veritas vincit! And happy anniversary to us all!

The worst part about reading Kafka is when I put the book down but those feelings don't disappear. Cause that's just life.

Same exact problem

I need a new hyperfixation so bad. I feel so broken when my interests don't consume 95% of my waking thoughts.

Nothing on this world has done greater damage to me than hope.
