Just something to think about:
"Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam." - Carl Sagan

This is what I thought about 98.7 until I started listening to it daily a few weeks ago. The other day I heard the same song twice, once coming home and once coming to school. I live TEN MINUTES away. Although the lack of nuance is quite dissatisfying at times, it's still miles better than most of the other stations.
Day 17: A Song You Hear Often on the Radio.
Well I’m weird because i almost never listen to the radio, first of all, and second of all, I listen to 98.7 which is like 60s, 70s, 80s music and I’ve never heard the same song played twice. so. Yeah.

You know, many people think that mathematics is so complicated. This is wrong. Mathematics is an extremely simple approximation of the world. The world itself is more complicated than anything we can think of.

as seen here in katherines and paper towns, you are very opinionated on subdivisions. what are your feelings about them and why?
I really hated subdivisions as a teenager because to me they represented sameness and the bloated, intellectually disengaged, wretchedly average 21st century America.
I felt like all these identical houses were architectural crimes committed against the land, and like we would pay for our crimes with these stretched out, sprawling cities that human beings of the future would see as proof of the insanity that accompanied our national prosperity.
Now I live in that very suburbia. So….yeah.
