#humans are messy

[ballpower981]

I am human, and I think that’s so fascinating. I’m this sentient made up of muscle, fat, bone, cartilage, blood, and so much more, all controlled by a conscience, the only thing separating me from a rock, or a feather.

I’m made up of so many cells and atoms and nerves that would take millions of lifetimes to count. But just because I’m so complex doesn’t mean I’m perfect. I’m far from it, actually.

Human beings are imperfect on principle. We’re messy, to put it simply. We have messy feelings, emotions, thoughts, actions. Hell, there’s not a single thing on earth that is perfect because humans are so messy. It’s subjective.

The human body isn’t perfect at all. If you slot your fingers together, they don’t all align perfectly, do they? Sure, there are a few rules when it comes to anatomy, like the structure of one’s face, or the length of your foot being the same as your forearm, but that’s all because of genetic patterns.

If you add blue to blue, you just get blue. If you add one person with “right” proportions to another person with “right” proportions, you get a kid with “right” proportions.

Even when there is a variation, chances are, if you look back into the gene pool (which is so complex that I don’t even have the TIME to type out), you’ll find that same variation. And when the variation is out of nowhere, it’s still always for a super complicated reason.

Humans are so messy and complex and interesting, that seeing people dumb ourselves down to a “bag of flesh and bones” is almost offensive. We’re so much more. Physically and emotionally.

We have sentience, we’re mortal, we’re conscious. Those things are the only thing that separates us from cats, gods, or objects. We have the ability to create and have ideas.

And the crazy thing is, despite there being +8billion people on earth, not a single one of us is the same as another. Some of us may share faces, but our consciousness is purely ours. No two people are the exact same.

I love being human, even when I hate it, because that means I have the ability, the sentience to hate. To love. And I love being human.

Thoughts on Malleus’s birthday card reveal? 🎤

Twst knows exactly what I want, and that's Malleus Draconia, in his little fancy bed jacket and head wrap, kicking his legs on the couch as he giddily tries on different lipsticks so he can look super duper extra pretty for his big special birthday party. :)

thinking about how the (greek) big three swore to never sire any more demigod children because those children are just too powerful (dangerous) and also thinking about how the characters that, arguably, seem to have the greatest proclivity for cruelty in the name of justice or vengeance are also the (greek) big three children... there's something there, a connection to be made I'm sure of it
