Humor : Ego, The Drill Sergeant I Never Hired

Me and the ego — yeah, I know the guy. He wasn’t a buddy, he was my drill sergeant! Woke me up every morning, yelling at me in the mirror:"Come on, you lazy bum! Time to shine today!"
And like an idiot, I listened.

I spent years chasing my own importance, like a little dog chasing its shadow. And in the end? I was tired, pissed off, and even my shadow had had enough of me.

Then one day — boom — revelation. The ego? It’s nothing. Hot air! Just a loud-mouthed idea passing through. It’s supposed to be a tool. Like a drill: useful to make holes, sure, but if you let it run your life, you’ll end up full of holes yourself.

You know what really pisses off the ego? Realizing we’re just a bunch of cells pretending to work together… And actually, we’re a soup of particles barely held together by dumb luck. And have you seen some people? Let’s just say the "miracle" didn’t quite land.

But anyway, who cares about theory? The point is: now that you know this, you can take a deep breath and say to yourself, “Alright, got it. I’m not my ego. I can choose to be a little less stupid.”

Picture this: you're on a cruise ship with other people. You’ve got two choices:

– You can scream, “I’m the captain!” set the engine on fire, sink the ship and die shouting, “BUT I WAS RIGHT!”
​
– Or you can park your butt on a deck chair, grab a drink, and enjoy the ride without being a pain in everyone’s ass.

Me? I say long live the chill cruise… and may the ego stay locked in the baggage hold!

Humor: Guinea pigs against their will — thanks to whom? Thanks to the State!

Alright folks, hold on to your straitjackets, because we’re about to talk about a little government masterpiece: Project MK-Ultra.

Just the name sounds like a robot shampoo or some radioactive energy drink. But no, it was actually a secret CIA program to see how far they could make the human brain dance... without any music.

See, back in the 50s and 60s, while everyone was listening to Elvis, the State was busy testing LSD on people without asking for their consent. Nice, huh? A beautiful demonstration of democracy... chemical straitjacket edition.

They took sick people, lost souls, prisoners... basically folks already in deep trouble, and thought: "Hey, what if we used them as guinea pigs to see how they react to mental torture? And as a bonus: without telling them!" That’s the magic of the State: it treats you when you’re not sick, informs you without your knowledge, and uses you without any lubrication.

So for all the good folks who say, "No way, the government would never harm its own people," I invite you to pull your head out of the sand... or the microwave, whichever’s hotter. Go read the documents — this isn’t a conspiracy theory, it’s official history.

Sometimes, truth is crazier than the wildest conspiracy theories… except it’s got a government logo stamped on it.
