Come on, give me the chills

Thoughts about changing, life, and whatever comes to mind.

  • sexual tension

    Strange topic here, but I always wondered what happens when you stop “searching” for girl.

    When you finally found the one and you don’t feel the need to look out for a new girl because you’re happy, what happens then?

    I am happily engaged so I’m not worried about it but I do understand that when you’re done with searching for new relationships it might happen that you feel that “sexual tension” between you and another girl.

    I’m not talking about flirting, which in this case would be bad, I’m talking about realizing that, somewhat, there’s this tension between you and another person.
    It doesn’t happen with everyone and I suppose that when it does, you feel uncomfortable.

    What is the link, what is the issue, can we understand what is “sparking” the tension? These are all questions that cannot be answered beforehand but must be understood in the context.

    Is it because of an action, a way of talking? is it because of something from your past? or is there a connection you don’t see?
    I’ll state it again:I’m talking of a situation where both of you aren’t interested in flirting nor do it, yet you feel this.

    I think this is what drives some relationship into the trash. We fall for the trap. We think that this tension is something good, while in fact it might be one of the biggest trap in the world.

    Maybe it’s a simple test, a question, like “do you love her or not?” and depending on your answer you decide which route to go.
    Trash or home.

  • parallelization

    The myth of multitasking.

    We believe we can do it, we are amazed when we see someone doing so many things together, achieve so much, yet we don’t consider that to max the output we need to tradeoff for something.

    You can’t get it all, and the myth of multitasking happens on all levels, both personal, human, and work life.

    For example: the less distractions we have at work, the less “context-switch” we have to do, the more productive we are.

    The idea that parallelizing things is a good thing comes from a technician point of view, and fails to account for one key thing: We’re not multitasking.

  • fake notifications

    Just a minute ago a plugin in my wordpress notified that “I had an issue”.
    And it wasn’t an issue, it was an advertising.

    Here’s the thing: When people give permission they do it for a reason, not to be made fun of.

    It’s the same advertising story: people give you an address and you fill it with junk, then you have to learn how to avoid the junk.

    Wouldn’t it be easier to avoid tricking them in the first place?

  • is there a place for a non consumist product?

    All our products have an end, but should that be the norm?

    I think about all those products whose life outlives us, whose duration impress us. I think about the dr bronner soap for example, or the deodorant I make.

    They’re counterintuitive. They go against the rule because they create a society that consumes less in a way that also produces less.

    One day they told me that products should be sold, but is that all? We’re so many people and we’re so obsessed with consuming that we might have lost our original goal: Live.

  • sarcasm and politic

    Being satiric and being sarcastic are very different things. I have the impression that we’re on a mission to be more sarcastic, while losing our ability to be satiric (and therefore to critic both sides).

    In italy we have a vote in dicember and now everyone seems to have a strong opinion, they have all a clear mind of what to do and how to denigrate their opponents.

    It scares me. It scares me the fact that the choice is so easy for them, I’m thorn inside, I dunno what to do, and yet there are peoples that have such a strong opinion, like if the world was black or white.

    Beware of the simple and easy choice.
