Can't remember the last time I was this happy to see it pouring rain. Goodbye snow. Goodbye road salt.

It's raining here as well. Supposed to rain for the next few weeks.

Same, rain here.

Rain is nice and all as long as it stays relatively warm. If the temp decides to dip then everything just ices over again.

So I'm complaining to my mom about this lady when I got home from school and she says "She was probably black" to which I reply "Why would you say that?".

Then I get "To annoy you". We end up exchanging a few words, and I told her to "stay ignorant" and went to my room. As I was walking upstairs I hear her trying to justify her comments to my stepdad who remained quiet during the interaction.

Fuck white people.

Are you not satisfied with the perspective science provides?

High?

Is there a specific one or are you just generalizing the East as a unified spiritual culture? Because that would be racist, Mr. Westerner.

**Frownland** · 01-18-2017, 11:46 AM

Any flaws with a scientific perspective in particular?

**Frownland** · 01-18-2017, 11:52 AM

So nihilism is spirituality?

the purpose of spirituality is completely different than science the two do not collide unless you're doing it wrong

I think science does provide me with a perspective. For instance, my view on the death of someone I care about. The difference between the perspective that science and religion provide is that science doesn't tell you how to feel.
