02.25.2015 - Respect for Bloggers Everywhere

I have a lot more respect for bloggers who have become famous and do it for a living. 

It’s literally god damn difficult to actually sit down and write about something everyday. And to keep doing it whilst staying interesting enough to amass a following…ridiculous. I use the computer every day, but despite that I haven’t written anything in months. Maybe it’s that my life isn’t that interesting, or that I don’t find it that interesting. 

But isn’t it kind of like a cycle? You blog about the interesting things in your life and as you get more and more famous, your life gets more interesting so in turn, you end up blogging more about it.

Maybe I’m just more suited as a reader.

Embarrassing note of the day: I actually paid $250 to go see 1Direction Live in Saitama in two weeks - and I’m not even a fan. (This is how boring the rural life can get)

Currently reading: The Ender Quintet, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, and How Dogs Love Us

Kim Jong Un Would Really Hate For You To Watch This, Which Is Exactly Why You Should

A graduate student has created the first man-made biological leaf. It absorbs water and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen just like a plant. He did this by suspending chloroplasts in a mixture made out of silk protein. He believed it can be used for many things but the most striking one is the thought that it could be used for long distance space travel. Plants do not grow in space, but this synthetic material can be used to produce oxygen in a hostile environment. (Video)

If you don’t think this is cool, you are very wrong.

“Amy Poehler was new to SNL and we were all crowded into the seventeenth-floor writers’ room, waiting for the Wednesday night read-through to start. […] Amy was in the middle of some such nonsense with Seth Meyers across the table, and she did something vulgar as a joke. I can’t remember what it was exactly, except it was dirty and oud and “unladylike”, 
Jimmy Fallon […] turned to her and in a faux-squeamish voice said, “Stop that! It’s not cute! I don’t like it.”
Amy dropped what she was doing, went black in the eyes for a second, and wheeled around on him. “I don’t fucking care if you like it.” Jimmy was visibly startled. Amy went right back to enjoying her ridiculous bit.
With that exchange, a cosmic shift took place. Amy made it clear that she wasn’t there to be cute. She wasn’t there to play wives and girlfriends in the boys’ scenes. She was there to do what she wanted to do and she did not fucking care if you like it.”
