Because it is. I have an Italian friend and she scares me sometimes.

She threatened me when I offered to cook.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

Day two of no smartphone. It's still submerged in a thick layer of uncooked rice at home, getting all of its moisture absorbed. Tried turning it on yesterday and the phone's thermostat seemed to be out of wack. Was saying it was overheating even though I just turned it on.

Means it is shorting out somewhere, it in fact could be damp.

It wasn't actually overheating, but I kept getting prompts that the phone was overheating, and the phone immediately shuts down after. Hence submerging it in dry, uncooked rice, might help absorb all of the moisture. If it still doesn't work when I try turning it on when I get home, I'm calling time of death and asking my Dad for a loan for a new phone.

Can you take the battery out and dry that seperately?

I have, my phone's a Samsung. It's in another sack of rice. I'm not sure if the battery's the problem, though, since it didn't feel hot anyway.

Cat litter works better.

Silica gel is probably the best, which is the stuff they usually put in the box of anything sensitive to moisture.

I neither have a cat nor silica gel. But my Southeast Asian ass DOES have a huge - and I mean huge - tub of rice. It'll have to do. :P

I just had a dream that Season 8 started playing on television.

However, the sound on the television was messed up and I couldn't get it work to work as characters started talking.

Hello again! :D

*Looks left, right, center* Weeeew, it's been a while since I last came here. And look, it's already nearing 500 pages!

Anyway, how are you all doing? For me, same old, really. Go to F7, write stories or factbooks, try my very best to finish my schoolwork... all that fluff.

On another note, I would like to ask: Do you guys have a TET Discord server? I heard it was mentioned before, so yeah. :P
