A very old fellow indeed

Live long and may the force be ever in your favor, Harry.

We get it, you don't like AI, you don't trust it, and you think it's an abomination . Really, we get it. However, we are also old enough to remember when people said the same thing about electronic music and even about Photoshop—it's soulless, it's evil, it's technology gone amok, it's taking work from the creative people who have been honing their craft for years. Again, we get you - and we respectfully disagree. AI is a tool, and like any tool in the history of humankind it can be used for go…

Have you ever played “ The Last of Us ”? Such an amazing game! it is often praised for its brilliant writing and acting (less so about it's gameplay loop, even though if you play the ‘remake’, it's improved immensely). Anyway, one of the main reasons this game is so good is because of its atmosphere. There is something so beautiful in walking the the ruins of a civilization after it has been reclaimed by nature . It is eerie and sad but strangely hopeful at the same time. By the way the “ICO” T…

I wonder how many signs I see on an average day. They are everywhere! From giant billboards telling me what I should buy to tiny leaflets asking me if I want guitar lessons to just plain, boring signs telling me to slow down or where the exit is located. We don't really think about it, but I bet we read the equivalent of an average book chapter just while walking down the street. But every now and then, we come across a sign that just makes us stop in our tracks. A sign so baffling, all we can…

Greetings, archetypes. For those of you that have stumbled upon these niche memes by accident, consider this a meaningful coincidence, or as Carl Jung put it, a synchronicity. Carl Jung was an extremely influential psychologist and psychotherapist who founded the school of analytical psychology, which is still very much a thing to this day. According to Jung, our minds are made up of the ego, the persona, and the shadow. In really simple terms, the ego is like your Instagram profile. You've bee…

Ye olde memes

Mark Twain once said, "There is no such thing as a new idea. It is impossible. We simply take a lot of old ideas and put them into a sort of mental kaleidoscope." I must say I agree with him; no artist starts from scratch . Every great piece of art is inspired by all the art that came before it. You stare at a blank canvas or a blank page and think of all the art that has inspired you in the past—and you go from there, trying to invoke the same feeling you yourself got from a different piece of…

Come to the dark side - We have memes

We know that sometimes you feel really old while talking about your childhood during the 1990s ; you feel like the younger generations are looking at you in the same way that you looked at older people talking about the 1940s when you were a child. But there's one huge difference - your childhood was awesome! You see, back in the early 20th century life kinda sucked; everyone was poor, there was no entertainment and you had to boil your food before you ate it. However, the late 20th century was…

Not to throw shade on any painter that lived during the middle ages but I don't think any of them ever seen a cat in real life. It's either that or this was all an elaborate inside joke that only medieval people got. One day all painters got together and said “Wouldn't it be hisssterical if all of us insert weird looking cats into our paintings? like, keep the rest of the painting looking good, but draw just the cat as if you're a ten year old with his first box of crayons”. Well, all the cats…

Is your life in shambles? Buy a plant! Are you on the brink of an emotional breakdown? Time for a new potted plant! Is your social life as barren as the Namib Desert? Time for a new succulent! Will they solve all your problems? No! Will it suddenly transform you into a valued, well-adjusted member of society? Of course not! But will you feel an inexplicable rush of dopamine while you buy said potted plants ? You betcha! Why? Beats me! But it works! If your house is overflowing with greenery and…

I'll take a potato chip... and eat it (at work).
