For a person who is borderline obsessed with the concept of balance, I am pretty frickin’ unbalanced in a few key ways….

What personality trait in people raises a red flag with you?
Rudeness
No explanation. If you are rude to others, especially for no reason, that is a huge red flag. Kindness is free. If you can’t constantly utilize it, that’s an issue.

My one dog has a super loud bark. The other two can be noisy for sure, but the third has a bark that is just…. different. It makes you squint involuntarily because it’s just that intense.

I disagree with this idea, for a couple of reasons.
First, it defies logic. 1+1 does not equal 1, unless we’re talking about one sperm and one egg joining to create an embryo. But in that case, the sperm and the egg each only have half the genetic material necessary to create an embryo, so that situation is actually 0.5 + 0.5 =1, which makes sense.
Now, since we are each born as a whole being, that means we are complete on our own. Any completeness that someone may be seeking will only be found within themselves, not from any external thing or entity.
I believe this idea started in Greek mythology, and humans were said to be these strange beings with 4 arms, 4 legs and two faces….Even now, the mental image of this is bizarre and difficult to comprehend… Anyway, for whatever reason, Zeus got a bug up his ass, split all the humans, scattered them, and we were then doomed to roam the earth in search of our other half. Nice story, but I don’t buy it.
I just wonder why we’ve held on to this idea, why we curse ourselves generation after generation with this delusion that we are incomplete without this elusive counterpart. Why do we not instead think of ourselves as intact from the get go, and view relationships to/with others as ways to accentuate our qualities and experience things in life?
I also wonder where the world would be by now if had it been populated the whole time with people who knew their entire lives that they were complete as they were? A bunch of people searching only for experiences and things they are passionate about, not someone to make them whole or worthy as a result of that wholeness. How much happier would humanity be?

I want to write something profound, yet – even with all the craziness in my head, I have nothing to say.
This is bullshit.

Some days, I want to just scream, but with the added effect of completely eviscerating people, similar to Alanis Moreisette in Dogma.

Are Vulcans a version of what humans will evolve into? Could we ever get to a point where we can contain emotion that well, and function purely on logic? If that’s the case, sign me up for reincarnation!

I like the kinda tired that comes with busting ass and getting shit done. Some of the best sleep after those days. Just sayin.

Are you holding a grudge? About?
I have to say no on this one, I am not one to hold a grudge. I don’t have the time or energy for that kind of emotional drain.
I will say, however, that my behavior may change in accordance with what I learn about the other person and/or my place in their life through certain interactions. So, there is that. I wouldn’t say that’s a grudge, per se, but more so a sort of reciprocal adjustment.

I’ve asked myself this question many times, but it has resurfaced because of something I watched the other day. Would human muscle be white meat or red meat? And this is from a purely non-cannibalistic, non-psychopath/sociopath, curious nerdy chick standpoint, to be clear.
