I often go on walks near train tracks and train stations. The child inside me never stopped liking trains.
If you actually read Revelations you'll be surprised that the word antichrist is nowhere to be found.

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the Earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the Sons of God.
Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.
Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.
Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you...
Oh, not these values.
Right wing American politics has made a mockery out of Christianity.
Well of course! My camera is a 2010 model (and a cheap one at that!) and the place where I took the picture probably looks the same since the early '80s. Photos snapped with with 00's tech look like they belong in that era. I can't put my finger on it, but I think it's the colour palette. Pics taken with high-end smartphones these days have this weird, plasticky, instagrammy, fake looking aesthetic to them. 10 years from now, you'll be able to look at them and say "That somehow looks like the 2020's".
I haven't listened to Porcupine Tree in a while, thanks. It feels a bit sacrilegious listening to them on YouTube, guess I'll have to go find my old mp3 player haha.
I was 20-something years old. I drank waaaay too much at a party, it made me really sick. Sworn I'll never put alcohol in my mouth ever again. Kept my promise for like a whole week.
It's pre-Eurovision season so... a bunch of 'em.
The android/iOS duopoly is consolidating. No one will want to develop their apps for a third platform, especially if it's an obscure one. Remember Windows 8/8.1/10 Mobile? If Microsoft couldn't get people to develop apps for their platform, what chance does some tiny development team have? Especially when there's little to no financial incentive.
I'm also sceptical of android compatibility solutions. You can bet that banking apps will eventually try to break compatibility "for security reasons". We're not winning any games of cat and mouse here.
I've also given up on the franchise. We've had our TNG, DS9 and VOY, but enough is enough. We've had a good run. I've only watched the new stuff because of the Star Trek branding, but it sure didn't feel like Trek. Except for SNW (which respects the old formula for the most part) and LD (which is just meta humour that non-trekkies wouldn't enjoy), the newer series were just mediocre sci-fi at best. It's tiring and every time I put on a new episode I feel like I'd rather be doing something else. It feels like trying to give a crap about all the pokemon that came after the original 151.
It's never too late. As long as you have bootstraps, you can use them to pull yourself up.
