#buddy your priorities are a wee bit fucked

[basedhighsenberg]

There's a meme page I follow on IG that recently posted he was playing Oblivion "one last time" because his wife was giving birth to their first kid and he decided he was going to "give up video games to be more supportive"

I don't exactly know how he came to this decision, nor do I disagree with it.

But if I had to guess, between occasionally playing video games and running a meme page almost 24/7 that devolves into him reposting pro-right wing arguments he has with a dozen strangers over IG about pop-political leftist shit, my guess is his wife would rather have him play video games.

148. What’s your favourite quote? Top ten because I love quotes

“Life is tough, but darling so are you” 

“The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed”

“There is a battle of two wolves inside us. One is evil. It is anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, lies, inferiority and ego. The other is good. It is joy, peace, love, hope humility, kindness, empathy and truth. The wolf that wins is the one you feed”

“Stay afraid, but do it anyway”

“...stupidity is one of the two things we see most clearly in retrospect. The other is missed chances.”

“But I believe in love, you know; love is a uniquely portable magic. I don’t think it’s in the stars, but I do believe that blood calls to blood and mind calls to mind and heart to heart.”

“Life turns on a dime. Sometimes towards us, but more often it spins away, flirting and flashing as it goes: so long, honey, it was good while it lasted, wasn’t it?”

“The place where you made your stand never mattered. Only that you were there...and still on your feet.”

“A person can't change all at once.”

“I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.I aim with my eye.I do not shoot with my hand; he who shoots with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.I shoot with my mind.I do not kill with my gun; he who kills with his gun has forgotten the face of his father.I kill with my heart.”

And a bonus: “Go then, there are other worlds than these.”

149. Do you believe in ghosts? No

150. Get the closest book next to you, open it to page 42, what’s the first line on that page? “If that guy Sam comes up to me and puts his arm around me and calls me “Buddy” one more time, I’m gonna complain.”  -Postcards From the Edge by Carrie Fisher
