I mean seriously, the key detail here that's being brushed under the rug by the counter narrative is that our leaders (or at least the one key one) wont shut up about "taking back our oil".

That "temporary takeover" if it goes their way will balloon into resource extraction, not helping the people.

Like there's a reason I keep thinking about that "Not freed, just under new management" line, the US has a really bad track record of doing this kind of thing and making the situation worse for everyone except the rich that profit off of it.

Every time his watch beeps is a split on his time tracker.

I don't have to like the leader of a foreign country to still find it insane to invade and capture their leader on a whim just to further political goals... like wtf.

They are powered by ignorance, but it's ignorance they themselves have bred so they can do all the malicious things they want while people cheer on.

I hate it, I hate what they've done to this country and the people here, I hate what they've done to the minds of my own family...

Oh that's a known bug, tug a hair in the opposite nostril to reset and re-enable self control.

This is probably the most in-depth look to my day to day feelings you'll ever get, and it's just vague colors lol.

If you figure your way around the pixels, you might be able to pinpoint certain moods to certain days, but it's kinda nice vague like this.

The takeaways from the images, the main image you can immediately see my post-move mood shift which is interesting.

The contrast images... idk, I WAS coming out of a "I feel nothing" phase so the gradient could be related to that?
But also a mix of optimism in recent years fighting with dread...?

Here's a more strange thing though, I was also tracking what I felt were my worst and best moods of any given day. You can see a sorta power creep over the last few years, not sure if that is my literal mood contrasts or just my documenting of it...
These were only ever numbers until now, oddly.

The "edit this image" feature really does feel like some kind of odd punishment for any artist that decided to stay...
