It's been an odd day. I made an effort and got up earlier than normal, which is about 1 pm. I had full determination to get that haircut so I did. It was a cheaper option and got a cheaper result, I got a simple bob but it's neat and I'm ok with it.
Then I came back and watched another episode of Civilization.The West and the Rest. It's pretty informative but also pretty random and doesn't really follow the ideas stated clearly. But I still decided to finish it. The Medicine part was mostly about the colonization of Africa and the genocide and it was so horrid to take it it made me feel a little sick. However, I coped better than I would have expected. I guess I got just a little bit thicker.
Then I tried to distract myself with pretty pictures and games and today X-23 came out, much earlier than I expected. But I haven't played with her much, instead I spent the most time at the forum than I ever did before. It was a thread about the sexiest heroines and not unexpectedly a couple of feminist ladies barged in to voice their protest. I don't really find the concept of this thread offensive and I don't think it's bad to appreciate female beauty and sexuality but I have to say some of the images look amazingly oversexualized, like they come from some erotic comic books. I like looking at sexy women but some images are kind of obscene and ridiculous. Interestingly, some guys argue that topless Gambit is the same thing but while I kind of think he looks hot I honestly find him to be distracting in game. I don't know how the guys don't get distracted to all the half-naked heroines. I guess they're just used to it. Anyway, some ladies and guys made really good points but the thing is I think pointing out sexism like this can do more harm than good. I still spent the rest of the evening following the discussion though.
Now it's 12.26 am and I still got a few hours to go. I don't feel like playing anymore. Perhaps I'll try to go and work on my story some more. It's already over 10.000 words and I'm so excited about it.
This was me just randomly needing to talk about my day.
