Stratification

Elitists-in-training, conformists.
Pandering to the wishes of the established.
Segregated, commoners you do not understand.

Ourselves away from kin and kith.

One Rant A Day

It has become a daily routine. Finish the daily tasks. Sit down, try to study, fail. And talk. Always that. Keeping us sane, stable. the only thing letting us remember that our impressions are not unique. That we are not the only one who think this way.
And it always boils down to people. Some are [...]

And My Nights Are Not My Own

A build-up from the days just a few months ago, when I could still decide which of my hours would be allocated for what, even with trainings at hours when I would rather not have anything to do. Until now, when it feels like this bombardment from all sides, but especially from certain directions, obligates [...]
