I absolutely do not feel ok today.

If he is real then he is dead. If he is not dead then he exists like a reflection in a mirror exists. If he is more than a reflection then he hates me.

I hate the world. I'm the son of a junkie. I'm old without a family of my own. I've lived my life having to kowtow to the privileged and imbecilic to earn table scraps. Now I go hungry because such people lead my nation and have ripped the last scraps of providence from my grasp. I am wretched.

Hate is the core of my being. Without it I'm as hollow as a ghost.

I hate therefore I live.

There isn't a video.

Hate. Hate for the world. Hate for myself. I've seen my reflection in the obsidian mirror. If Tezcatlipoca was real I would live for the laughter he must have at my expense for my misery. Tezcatlipoca isn't real and I hate that.

Shout out to the guy who is throwing out devil horns in the mosh pit on the left.

Trump took my job. It's been months and I can't get a human to look at my resume. My former colleagues are having the same experience.

I'm doing really bad.

I regret voting for him.

No you're not. You're clearly impersonating this woman to slander her.

You know being upset because a girl doesn't like you is pretty normal. But everything else you're doing isn't.

You don't have to get us involved. You could act like a man for once and actually process the pain without acting like a complete weirdo.

Knock it off.

So did this Ms. Jefferies turn you down for a date? This is why you give all women the "ick" dude. Ever thought about self improvement and growing as a person instead of doing this bizarre cringe shit?

I'm an American. I eat a lot of salad. Regardless of this dude's opinion that's honestly hilarious.

My life is garbage and I'm struggling to keep a roof over my head. Want to trade stories?

Reading words of sympathy from people I don't know has never made me feel good. Listing grievances against reality to randos on the internet is a lot more amusing in my opinion.

The flag of Switzerland is always a plus.

Even with billions of cacao beans exchanges, Aztec cacao sellers took great measures to disguise their fake cacao. According to Bernard Sahagun, a Spaniard documenting Aztec lives, cacao sellers processed fakes using hot ashes, chalk, and a generous coating of amaranth dough, wax, or avocado pits (Coe 100). To further camouflage their counterfeit cacao, sellers mixed the fake cacao with pure Theobroma cacao beans. Other cacao deception experts exploited empty shells by filling the insides with mud (De Maré).

Sahagun was one of the first westerners to document the indigenous people of Mexico.

We've never met.

Fuck yes! I want the goddamn top score!

One: Women would use indigo hair dye called xiuquilitl to turn their hair blue.

Two: In Tenochtitlán human waste would be collected from public toilets for fertilizer. Thus it was someone's job to sail the "poop canoe" to deliver night soil.

Three: Only a certain type of cacao was used as currency. Counterfeiting was rampant.

You try finding a qualified lapidarist in 2025. You can't Fiver that. Nobody wants to work anymore. I'm good for the cacao beans needed to pay the bill.

Aztec Emperor. Tlatoani translates to "he who speaks" when you add Huey/Hueyi it means "grand/great".

I covet the turquoise diadem and a cloak of quetzal feathers.

I declare myself Huey Tlatoani. I expect tribute from y'all by the end of the day.
