The “margin” was just dumb fucking luck! Nothing else.
If Virat Kohli was in his place, he might have been more frank about the unfairness of the rule that denied him the World Cup……!?

– Sportsman – play to win, and be fair!
– This is true/good and that is false/bad…
…Or maybe not!
Is this (objectively) right, or is it just (my) preference?
Should everyone try to work on & improve/change themselves, or should they just relax & be their natural selves?
Which is better? Is it possible or more desirable to do both? If so, how??
Maybe those who live unreflectively should just go on that way, and those who are more inclined toward the serious/spiritual should do their part. Then, maybe they can complement, & contribute to, each other – the combination of productivity & progress…?

Killing Eve
Great beginning, and one of the best final episodes I’ve ever seen!
Super casting, and great chemistry between the 2 lead female protagonists. The guys are just side-kicks here! Am I a feminist/lesbian??
Self-projection & soul-mate; Narcissism & intimacy; Love & disappointment; Being true to oneself & relational loyalty; Aggressive originality & other-concern – torn apart, burnt alive……
Doomed lovers ~ tragic beauty!
Compare with Bourne series
The muddled ground between state intelligence & organized crime!
Beyond boredom & barbarism – perfect nihilism!
Jungian shadow-fighting
Jodie Comer – Oh, cum on, baby! 😋😍
– I need to become more intensely focused on my central passion/purpose, but also avoid becoming pedantic or judgmental with others.
– How are you feeling now?
I feel okay. Little upset, but alright. Trying to be tough and not make a big deal out of mild disturbances.
What’s going on in your mind?
I don’t think she loves me as much as I would desire, and I don’t like the kind of person she is (becoming).
But I also do not love her the way she would like, and I too might be the kind of person she doesn’t really prefer.
In fact, even I don’t love myself well many a times, and I’m not happy with who I am & how I live sometimes (or mostly?)……!
My life seems so boring & trivial that it might often feel like it’s not worth carrying on anymore. But isn’t that one of the greatest challenges of contemporary existence? To struggle through the hard, barren stretches, keep engaging in the process of self-cultivation and maintain the hope of transformation, even when the wilderness seems endless & worsening……?
The sudden moment of enlightenment or liberation is actually more accessible to those who are already actively & intentionally seeking for realization. Right?

Truth/science/facts Vs. Power/politics/ideology – is it that simple?? Peterson/Chomsky Vs. Zizek/Foucault
The human element and the physical universe – where is GOD in all of this?!
Rarely is sacrifice heroic/noble…!
How much pressure can your character withstand, before it crumbles?
The female protagonist seems to be the strongest of them all!
In light of the immeasurable, indifferent cosmos and the mighty, corrupt social systems, does the individual still matter? The answer is NOT vague or timid!!!
Behind every collective movement is one massive person (or small group)……
