Advertisements annoy me to new levels. I don't care if they make a service free, they are becoming increasingly predatory. Soon the dystopias of Fahrenheit four-fifty-one and Nineteen-eighty-four will be a reality. Sometimes I feel like I am going to crack like the protagonist in Falling Down, pulling out a weapon and holding those in charge to account for their malificence, I wanted to watch a nine second video on YouTube and I had to watch a twenty second ad. Usually the accepted principle has been jab,jab,jab punch - seventy-five percent content and twenty-five percent advertisement. What I endured was brutal mutilation and then a glance of pity. It was punch, punch jab. About seventy percent advertisement and thirty percent content. I would boycott if I could, but where else can I watch this content for free. I am trapped, and my ad-blockers keep getting flagged making this process even harder. But guess what, it doesn't matter because there are bigger problems in the world. Talk about reality building off art, I'm looking at you C.A Duffy, they really do not care. Eh. I often look at myself with disgust and pity. Bye.

My favourite aspect of any piece of media, whether it be stories, film, music or art, is character development. If there ceases to be any character development, if there are no consequences or changes in a character proceeding their past actions, I don't want to experience it. For example, I enjoy television shows like Amphibia, Gravity Falls, Home Movies and the Regular Show because I am not only entertained by the storytelling and dialogue, but also because I care about the characters and what will happen to them next. If a character is the same in every instance, why should I care, I know what will happen to them next; these characters are simply unnatural, and although realism is not at all a core aspect of media, consequences and change are fundamental aspects of storytelling. Even sitcoms such as the Simpsons have loose character development which can suffice. When I was a baby, I watched shows because of cool colours and pictures (like Pocoyo), but as I grew, I was introduce...

There is one sole person in this world who I despise. I won't name them of course, but I truly do regard them with abject pity. I have no respect for this person at all, they simply do not deserve it. I will be happy when I am away from them permanently; till then, I will try to avoid them as much as possible. I would speak with them, but there are some people in this world you simply cannot win an argument with. Writing with anger in my veins for the hours this person has taken from me; but it's almost over.

There is something so fatalistic about GCSEs. The exam is over now, and there is nothing I can do about it, and you don't care, but I'm going to tell you what I wrote so you can give a forced "ok" or "that's good" so I can feel slightly better while showing off to others to validate my position in this world - I just don't understand why people do this. Don't try to estimate my age, I'm a 40 year old living in a small bungalow off the coast of West Africa.
