I'm scared to think that more and more, everything is becoming a business. Everything is marketable, everything has a financial purpose—even ourselves. There will come a point where companies control everything. I'm not someone who supports the idea of the government controlling every aspect of our lives, but the thought of profit-driven corporations becoming the ones who regulate everything in our daily lives—that scares me.

Lol kind off
You mean how hot is the food right?
No it's far from over. But, "la violencia" was known as one of the most violent periods of colombian history. In addition, a lot of current conflicts in our country are directly caused because of 'la violencia' period. Understanding the colombian conflict as a single event is a wrong point of view.
Maybe it's some kind of conensual not consent shit
That's so evil...
You're welcome! If you end up liking his work, I'd be happy to discuss it and share the things I liked and the things I didn't.
I understand what you're saying. Yes, I’m currently in a relationship with someone who understands that it’s something I enjoy, and there’s no issue with it.
Nice Try lol, and a nice reference too. One of my fav movies BTW
The last book I read was Foundation, the collection by Isaac Asimov. I had never read anything by this author before, and honestly, I loved it. I think I'll start reading more of Asimov’s work—his way of portraying dystopian and futuristic societies feels really beautiful to me.
In my case, I'd say I enjoy receiving verbal and physical abuse. I'm not just referring to something sexual, but more generally. I've realized that it's something that motivates me and makes me feel good. I don't know if it's sadomasochism, but in many instances in my life, I've found myself in total ecstasy when someone hits me or insults me.
However, it's something circumstantial. I don't see it as something I'm constantly seeking, like a fetish. It's more like a personal trait—something that’s very much a part of me and makes me feel really good.
This photograph is known as "The Peasant Christ" or "The Tragedy of Colombia." It dates back to 1962 and is set against the backdrop of a period in Colombian history known as "La Violencia"—a partisan armed conflict that began around 1948 and lasted through the 1960s, leaving deep scars across the country, especially in rural areas.
The image starkly captures the pain and suffering endured by peasants during a time marked by brutal clashes and massacres. It stands as a powerful visual testimony to both the hardship and resilience of the Colombian people in the face of violence and chaos.
The identity of the man depicted remains unknown—the subject was never publicly named. And in that anonymity lies part of the photo’s symbolic weight: it doesn’t portray just one individual, but rather speaks to the collective suffering of countless rural Colombians during La Violencia.

"Wow, I had no idea that was a real problem. But I can understand that it’s a very difficult situation to deal with. In those cases, I think all you can do is 'try to move forward.' Have you tried any kind of spirituality or religiosity?"
