The Mood of This February

January is done, and now we must begin the slow crawl towards March. My real life is turbulent lately, so I've been in hibernation and trying to finish some of my projects while I can.
A cognitohazard is a piece of information that harms the person who knows it. The Internet is one big megastructure made of information, and is a minefield of cognitohazards. You have to be very careful of the things you surround yourself with, and that goes for the Internet too. I don't believe in irony. It doesn't matter that you're posting ahaego pics and "femboys" on Discord ironically, in the end you're still doing it. I think that knowledge of certain things can be a type of poison, and just by having something be in the periphery of your thoughts can change the way you feel or act. Sometimes it's a privilege to be ignorant. You are forever changed because you know what a "soyjack" is.
