Violence really can be cathartic, but it does need to be controlled. Punching bag, scream into or punch a pillow, knife throwing, sparring, whatever… Shit that doesn’t seriously hurt someone. In that sense, violence can be healing.

I read somewhere recently that there are more bacteria living in your gut than there are cells in your body. I don’t know if that’s actually true, but even if it’s not, we do have a symbiotic relationship with something that we generally think of as bad or gross or even dangerous. That’s kinda funny.

Why is it that certain sounds have a visual component? When I hear certain noises in an MRI machine, for example, I see points behaving in particular ways depending on the sound. It’s interesting.

I’ve often wished I could be a dog, because their life is so simple. But I was thinking about it, and realized that they eat and drink every day without hands. Literally stand there, put their face in a bowl and eat or drink and then just carry on. I don’t know if that would be liberating or frustrating.

Why is it that sometimes, I think a thought and want to remember it later but can’t, and other times, I think a thought I’d rather forget and it winds up playing on a loop in my brain?
