The ultimate ouput of the human civlisation

Human earthlings are peculiar creatures. They take this

this

and  this

And turn it into this

this and this.

Invariably into  this:

Gender in politics: are female leaders patently beter than male ones?

Historically, most female leaders were veritable harpies, often outdoing their male colleagues  to  nastiness and cruelty: Margaret Thatcher, Indira Gandhi, Golda Meir, Christina Fernandez, Marine Le Pen, Yingluck Shinawatra, Condoleeza Rice, Madeleine Albright, etc. ad nauseam. The much-lauded Hillary's record too is that of a tough-balls hawk too. And don't even get me started on female role models in business. 

Gender is not a decisive factor when it comes to what  political decisions one will make. In fact, expecting "typical" feminine qualities, such as all-embracing peace-loving care, motherly loving, softness, etc., from female leaders is the worst kind of sexism. Assuming that female leaders would be somehow different from their male counterparts suggest that women intrinsically have a different "nature" than men. That kind of assumptions belong to the "Women are from Venus, men are from Mars" kind of tabloid literature. Gender in politics and generally in life is much more complex than simplistic dualisms. Gender equality is worth fighting for but let's see what kind of people we elect to govern us.

On choice in democratic elections

The lesser evil is still evil.

Religion is...

...the worst advertising for God.

Depression: meditation or medication?

That is the question.

Immortality

Human immortality is 100% hereditary.

Intimacy

 
The deeper we go, the higher we end up.

London is...

a flurry of faces.

Thinking is suffering

Thinking is suffering. Ipso facto, no thinking, no suffering.

More beautitudes

Blessed are the dreamers, for they shall never be scathed  by the vicissitudes of reality

Reification

Collectively imagining things into existence is what earthlings mostly spend their lives doing.

Human ignorance

Earthlings' ignorance of the true nature of their condition is the root of all their suffering.

What fighting brings

"Fighting" anything just creates a far larger and more horrible version of whatever you are fighting (drugs, terrorism, depression, poverty, intolerance, prejudice, etc. ad nauseam).

To the yoof of today

You are my past. I am your future.

The trap of good looks

Attractive faces and bodies do not guarantee good sex. The kick may run deeper than a pure aesthetic gratification, yet nerds and average-lookers are more reliable for good performance in the sack.
