People think that donkeys are dumb and difficult, but the reality is that they are probably smarter than horses and are simply wired to survive rather than please. I understand that my dream of gittin´ gud at combat sports at my advanced age is probably a bit silly, but working towards it can still be … Jatka lukemista Asinine Virtues

Limits
I am waiting for the sun to rise on Saturday morning, which is still night in the nightless midsummer, and I wonder what my limits are. I did not go exercising after donating blood because I was told not to, and because I know from experience that it causes me to recover poorly for longer. … Jatka lukemista Limits
Little Pleasures
I had vivid dreams on Thursday morning, and the one I remembered was how to modify a standard boxing reaction drill in a way that would best benefit me and my dojo bestie. I had a shower, applied glycolic acid on my body, and testosterone gel onto my thighs; I had breakfast, packed my bag, … Jatka lukemista Little Pleasures
Forsaken So Many Times
Monday evening; I hit the gym after kick & conditioning because my shoulder joints are becoming increasingly unstable. I was reminded of my old nerve injury from the time my parents forgot about me and I was stuck in a tree for hours until the arm sustained permanent damage. My parents didn't take me to … Jatka lukemista Forsaken So Many Times
Fudo Myoo
I will save myself even if I have to drag myself out of the fiery pits by a rope that so triggers me. I will cut right trough it the second my feet touch the solid rock again. Similarly, I have cut through the veils that made me cling to beauty in song and dance … Jatka lukemista Fudo Myoo
Mechanical Arts
The cloud cover makes the day cool and the air easier to breathe. I still have occasional coughing bursts that make me see sparks, so I miss out on karaoke with my friend, and stay in bed and rest instead. I´m still digesting everything King Belial taught me, but on the cusp of this Pride … Jatka lukemista Mechanical Arts
Prayerkey
The curtains of Sunday opened with a trashing of rain and a rumble of thunder. With my body heavy and numb I intended to get up and move the AC unit safe from the inevitable lightning, but sleep kept taking me over and over again until I heard two sharp knocks at my door. I … Jatka lukemista Prayerkey
Treasurechested
Saturday Noon. I am feeling the after-effects of our last nights' flight on my mind and my body, and they could not have come on a worse day, as today I was planning to write the student loan pardoning appeal, but I can hardly string two words together. I got scary news last night, my … Jatka lukemista Treasurechested
Cloudline
Have you ever been on an aeroplane? Isn´t it strange that at one point in history, for the average median income Westerner, flying abroad for a holiday once or twice a year was considered completely normal. Nowadays we are supposed to mind our carbon footprint, and yet I can watch the metal birds fly past … Jatka lukemista Cloudline
Voidmoan
Isn´t it strange that the word "moan" is used to describe both the sound humans make in pain and when they are experiencing sexual pleasure? In Finnish it´s not that different; "voihke" comes to mind, the only difference being that it´s a somewhat higher-pitched sound whereas a moan is low and guttural. I promise I´m … Jatka lukemista Voidmoan
