Earplugs
posted October 5th, 2021 at 8:08 AM
They are so handy. I never used to consider bringing them with me. But I find I'm always wanting them when I don't have them, especially when I'm on transit. Like if someone had their fucking music or other audio on super loud, I could just slip them on. I mean people just don't give a shit about other people, so it's less stress to alter my behavior versus someone else's and people wonder why I don't talk to other people.

The silicone ones are the best. Those foam things are useless.

You'll likely appreciate what Schopenhauer says about solitude.

I’d like to use them to block out crazed meth heads screaming and wailing like a bunch of lunatics in an asylum.
Truly considerate people are rare.

The sooner you accept it, the better.

Takers have no limits, and sadly they are everywhere - in every family, in every community.

on the bus are the worst. I started bringing ear plugs because of one particular piece of work. It really helps get a small slice of quiet in the noise of the sprawl.

wear until at least it's time to start work. unfortunately if i meet a friend in the street must dig in ear which is sometimes gross. and what do you do with the little orange blob in your hand? lol
