Most people don't believe something can happen until it already has. That's not stupidity or weakness, that's just human nature. I don't blame anyone for not believing. I don't claim to be any smarter or better than them. I guess what it really comes down to is the randomness of birth. I happened to be born into a group of people who live in constant fear of extinction. It's part of our identity, part of our mind-set, and it has taught us through horrific trial and error to always be on our guard.

I stayed up all night reading Max Brook's World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War. Loved it a a lot and I especially enjoyed how the book was set up: with short personal accounts painting the larger picture and also how fragmented it made things. Filling in the blanks was a whole lot of morbid fun.

I ALSO RESTARTED EARTHBOUND, I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THROUGH THAT GAME FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND I KEEP STARTING OVER AND THIS TIME I'M GOING TO FUCKING FINISH IT NO MATTER WHAT AAAAAH.

I've also miraculously stayed totally spoiler-free about the game for all these years AND I'M GOING TO KEEP IT THAT WAY. NO MATTER HOW TEMPTING.
