Last birth Animal

 Yesterday Megha said that she'd read somewhere that there's an animal inside men that they have to constantly battle with. Only when a man conquers the inner animal can he express his feminine side fully. I don't know what animal lies inside me. Probably a jackass. I am not berating myself, even as the word 'berate' sounds like bray. The point is that a Jackass is an incredibly stubborn animal and will bear loads far beyond what a horse would. It's a sturdy, gritty animal. But when a Jackass backs up, you better let him do his thing as there's nothing that will make him change his mind. 

I've been incredibly obstinate about certain things in my life and how I would like to have them. And most  of the times, I feel that I am just as horny as a donkey. The saving grace was astrology. Megha looked up our previous births on an astro app, which by the way is the most legit way to know what animal you were in your last birth. 

I was a fucking lion in my last birth. Probably I was some zoo lion, for I feel so caged most of the time. So there are two competing theories to the animal within me debate. There must be a Facebook quiz on this, which is the most relevant source of information for topics like these. 

Long ago in the crazy 10s the era of the exploding mobile devices and new tech, Facebooks quizzes used to be the most cool thing that we teenagers could lay our hands on. WIth the winds blowing behind our backs and our deep belief in ourselves, we thought we could do anything in the world, anything was possible, even knowing who you were basis a quiz that Facebook took. Little did we know then that those quizzes were being used as a deep marketing technique to collect user data and use it to influence marketing behaviours of consumers and voting patterns of voters. 

Recently though, Facebook fired 20,000 of its employees. It's 2023 and firings are becoming routine and companies have not just laid off their staff, but entire departments which did not directly contribute to profits. This way, we are in the middle of another economic collapse, but we don't call it a collapse yet. The money for new investments and those kinds of things has dried up, for now. This for now approach is a direct result of all the mindfulness training that people did during the covid lockdown and are now using them in business settings. 

Covid not just killed off a significant number of people but also made people retarded. I am not making up this stuff. There are credible studies showing how due to Covid, IQs of people dropped by 10%. This could be 50% also in case of Russia- the only large country to wage a war on a large country in the 21st century. Well, it's not like the world wars, which were much more terrible, but still, it's terrible enough for the rest of the world to precipitate an economic crises, just before the last party ended. The last party is what I call our current conditions, when we get access to good, cheap products, services and environment. In the times to come when the climate crises finally blows over and we're all living back in the Stone Age, then these years would probably count as the last party of the humanity, before another hundred, two hundred years pass and we're actually able to make some changes to the way things are done. 

For now, the party animals are out and I am a Jackass lion, the most exotic last birth animal you've ever heard about.
