re: wtf?!

pt. cine stie despre ce era vorba: am sters ultimul post de pe blog fiindca am vazut ca si-au facut curatenie prin site, care chiar este functional acum (si e tot bazat pe drupal, evident).

6.94…Up

OK… deci masa litiului e 6.94, daca o rotunjim in sus (“up” ) iese 7… Bingo! O sa se numeasca 7Up.

Acuma serios, chestia incolora si cu aroma dubioasa de lamaie numita 7Up chiar a fost botezata dupa masa atomica a litiului! Si formula originala continea citrat de litiu, un asa zis “mood stabilizer”…

Urmeaza un post despre psihofarmacologia litiului… candva…

Cosmogonie

După al n-șpelea sfârșit al lumii, cu “puțin” înainte de crearea lumii noastre, cei patru călăreți și călărețe ale apocalipsei stau la o bere:

deeper than it seems

…peste ce dai când ar trebui să faci ceva “necesar” cum ar fi invaţatul la chiru’ nerd, dar fiecare parte din tine încearcă să te convingă să mai iei o pauză, şi încă una:

…no, really, listen to what this guy says!! it’s really about more than cancer medicine.

Infinite complexity, determinism and (human) happiness

I’ve tried to make my thoughts as easily “digestible”  as possible and this is the best I could, so this is it (hope your minds don’t choke on it …mine almost did):

This journey starts close to the philosophical part of theoretical physics (close but just far enough that all the math is out of our field of view). Read more

fuck your planet

About 11 hours ago, someone told me that I should switch off the lights and all electrical appliances tonight at 8:30, ’cause it’s “Earth Day”. My immediate answer was, as you have guessed it: “fuck the planet!”. Read more

tell me you don’t want a fucking chocolate cake after (re)seeing this…

still funny

Chestia asta tot mi se pare tare si după un stagiu de oncologie. Asta înseamnă că am o problemă? (nu e întrebare retorică, aştept un comment răspuns)

Nu am pus filmul aici pt. aluzia socio-ecologică… nu mă număr printre adepţii salvării planetei; totuşi oamenii care încearcă să rezolve subtil şi elegant problema – reală sau nu – a suprapopulaţiei au toată simpatia mea.

Artificial Virginity Hymen kit

The Artificial Virginity Hymen kit is a product that helps women fake their virginity. The kit is distributed by Gigimo, a company in China. On October 5, 2009, it was reported that conservative lawmakers in Egypt called for a ban on the Artificial Virginity Hymen kit.

south smurf

Ce merge bine cu o farfurie mare de cartofi bine prăjiti bogaţi în acrilamidă şi urme de PAH? Cola? Evident, dar şi ceva cam la fel de nociv la care tot revi odată la câţiva ani… South Park! Şi tot clickuind pe southparkstudios.com dupa ce m-am intoxicat cu episodul Dance With Smurfs (noroc că face mişto de Avatar că altfel ar fi fost al draq de sec) dau peste “south park avatar creator” şi îmi dezlănţui talentul producând capodopera de mai jos:

Acum trecând la lucruri mai serioase: voi nu vă gândiţi la chestii perverse când auziţi cuvântul “smurf” (nu da click pe link dacă nu ai o minte bolnavă) sau când vedeţi chestiile alea mici şi albastre?

forgoten how much I like this guy…

…too bad George Carlin is dead …somebody must really take his place. It’s not the best of his shows but it sure is in tone with my mood.

A quote from his last show: “Studies have repeatedly shown that having high self esteem does not improve grades, does not improve career achievment, it does not even lower the use of alcohol and most certainly does not reduce the incidence of violence of any sort because as it turns out, extremely agressive violent people think very highly of themselves. Imagine that, sociopaths have high self esteem.

Wormique – episode 1: the big picture

I’ve just started a new webcomic:  ”Wormique”. I’s about… mmm… everything. It stars worms as a metaphor for people’s place in the universe: dwarfed by the unknown and complexity. And it really is drawn by me!!!!!!

new year’s resolution

This year I will NOT:

  • try to make anyone happy – this will be as easy and natural as it would for a blind man not to see; and there’s a justification to it all:
    1. All interesting stuff was done by unhappy people while doing stuff that they thought will make them happier. So happy people are pretty much unproductive.
    2. I have an innate tendency to enjoy other people’s misery very much. God hates us all and he made me in his image (don’t worry… still a goddamn atheist… but stinging the mosquito can be quite fun).
  • pretend that I care – I don’t! No, really, I just don’t give a fuck! (this statement is more general than general relativity and it applies to the entire universe and transcends it).
  • give explanations and try to get myself understood – the world is a weird place and the clock is ticking… and you wouldn’t understand anyway, so why lose my time with it.
  • try to find inner equilibrium, peace and beauty – some form of disintegration is the only probable end… and in the end it will only matter how far we’ve got …not in how many pieces we’re broken.
  • be funny or playful – I’m not a fuckin’ clown! If you want entertainment, go get it somewhere else.
  • try to find the logic in all things – intuition is good enough and brute force actually works when you have access to it.
  • engage in meaningless social interaction – we lose too much time communicating instead of actually doing stuff. The biggest problem with communication is not the illusion that it has occurred but the fact the amount of useful information transmitted in the process is not enough to justify the time investment. And thing like “bonding” and “team-building” are just bullshit: a group of socio-emotionally mature people with a common goal and enough motivation will work together and get things done with no need for such things.
  • try to “really understand people” – regarding just about all people I’ve known so far, I can just say that their world-views are similar and not interesting. Interesting people should better try and make themselves noticed… ’cause I’m not searching for them anymore and I’m just about to stop believing in their existence.
  • try not to hurt people – bad things happen to good people and I don’t mind. If you are standing in my way, I might just drive my truck over you. Or I might do it just for fun. But remember: what doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger; so I’m just doing it for your own good.

birth cry

OK… so this is the n-th incarnation of my blog.

If you’ve read any of my previous blogs, you know the drill:

  • posts are written in whatever language I happen to be thinking in
  • this site is bad for your mind, body and soul

If I would try to explain why do I write this blog and what will happen to it in the future, I would get incredibly bored…  So just read along (supposing you don’t have anything better to do with your life) and wait for it to take shape …slowly …from the darkness.
