  • Hieroglyphs are actually not that simple, my ex gf was an Egyptologist, I went to quite a few lectures with her, that was a highly complex language, more akin to Japanese Kanji, with deep layered subtexts. Those desert dudes were crazy. If you have ever have a chance to visit a lecture about hieroglyphs, do it, it’ll blow your mind. Or how they calculated time, or even saw it, culturally and individually, wow. They were so unbelievably far ahead, I sometimes compare them to the octopus of human development, they should rule the world, but there was that one thing, that prevented it. (For the analogy: the octopus dies when their kids are hatching, would they have the ability to pass their knowledge along to them, today eight armed space suits would be en Vogue)





  • History, one of two teachers I got that wasn’t a total asshole and he was cool, Mr Wilkens. " And “Values and standards” (don’t know how to translate it differently, we had it instead of religion), the teacher was the other human being in our school. All other teachers were sick nutcases and / or simply assholes. RIP Mr Lehrke, the small grey guy who talked with me for hours about kabbalah, mysticism and all that other stuff I was into. And he liked the cheap discount beer, like me :) He was the reason I went to University. Solely.














  • I don’t have a solution for this catastrophic injustice all over the world, but we - as in we humans - have to chlose down these inhumane shadows like north Korea or other nations killing people for expressing their opinion. That has to stop. We have to go the way to overcome that concept of closed nations completely, we’re all on an insignificant pebble in the dark & mankind has to grow up at last, from the ego-driven toddler at least to a plagued teenager iykwim.
