food that makes my brain practically dance while i'm eating it. turns out it's no coincidence i say that. once you learn the real story you'll agree with me, folks. let me explain the neurological festival going on in the background, in my own way, here you go:
the fish and soy sauce in sushi are packed to the brim with glutamate (a kind of natural msg). the second this stuff binds to your taste receptors, a signal goes to the brain saying "an excellent source of protein and amino acids." to reward this evolutionary success, the brain releases dopamine (the pleasure/reward hormone) from the ventral tegmental area.

what doesn't kill you inevitably leaves a mark on you, and that mark makes you live your past traumas over and over again.

donald trump
there was one type of football he hadn't gotten his hands on, and by getting his hands on that too he's screwed up both football and an institution like fifa.
first, the idea of water breaks during matches may have come out of him. he definitely forced this on fifa, otherwise nobody in their right mind would do something this ridiculous and this widely criticized.
second, getting the suspension for the red card an american player received postponed, and the comment he made about it, is complete nonsense. people want to watch a fair game and tournament, but he's meddling in it, and he's doing it by using a worldwide institution like fifa as his tool.
third, the disgrace of a referee who came for the world cup not being let into the country. this alone is a scandal. it showed just how weak and helpless an institution fifa is.
fourth, the treatment of the iran national football team. their players were even interrogated for hours. on top of that, the injustices the referees did to them in the group matches are plain to see. he has a direct or indirect hand in this and many other things like it. he ruins everything he touches. -
instagram
the black plague of today's world. the instagram stories feature quietly, without any fuss, changed all of humanity from the ground up in 2016. think back carefully: the friendships you'd made up until that day, the things you went through with your partner, everything started coming back at you in different versions after that day. today your mom, your dad, or your closest friend is gone, and their digital versions have taken their place. for a full 10 years now we've been waking up inside a horrific nightmare. this perception of the better, the most correct, the all-or-nothing keeps flexing. everyone, whether they know anything or not, is an expert on every subject. 30-second stories screwed all of humanity over. you go to a concert, you have a kid, you're a parent in your happiest moment, but none of it gives as much pleasure as that share button. all of humanity's iq is in the gutter.

cristiano ronaldo
"you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain," that line was said for him. the mind that kept him in the competition for years, ever since his body went into decline, is causing him to believe in things that aren't real and to poison himself. the biggest reason for this is himself, of course. the decline he's been in for 4-5 years, the statements he makes and the things he does have gotten into such a crappy state that he's worn out even his own fans and is turning into an object of hatred worldwide. he has no respect for anyone anymore either. the disrespect he's shown to messi, his old coaches, his teammates, other leagues and players, it's a dime a dozen. if he'd retired after the 2022 world cup he'd be remembered with something like 10 times the respect he gets today, and if the process keeps going like this, especially if this world cup ends in failure, he'll be remembered as one of the biggest vermin in the football world, his fans aside.
his fans have laid into the instagram comments of the portugal national team players. they're hurling insults at the world's far-and-away best midfield, saying you're playing badly, you can't manage to get the ball to ronaldo and so on. they've targeted not only them but their girlfriends too, dumping vomit emojis and the like under their posts. by the way, his sister likes posts taking shots at bruno (just like ronaldo commenting on and liking posts taking shots at messi), saying they post stories and forget to play football and so on. ronaldo is silent, posting only himself in his posts.
the exact same scenario happened in 2022. the united locker room ruined with ronaldo's arrival, finishing 6th in a league that had been finished 2nd and going to the europa league, bruno living through his worst individual season, being benched, the piers interview before the world cup, ruining the portugal national team locker room, sitting on the bench, the social media squabbling, getting knocked out. they called him up for euro 24 and he got knocked out without being able to provide 2 goal contributions. now, knowing full well all of these will be repeated, and even though the same problems have been talked about for years, you (out of necessity) call him up to a billion-dollar squad again and you go through the same things again. ronaldo may seriously still believe in his own mind that he's the best, he's aware of the generation he's got in hand too, and just like in the nations league, he's okay with snatching success with a few goals and crying on the sideline over a non-major cup. if it's lost, who cares.
messi had 3 sentences before the world cup; he says "if i feel physically ready i want to be there, i don't want to be a burden on the team, and when scaloni calls to ask my opinion let the squad be announced and we'll see whether i'm in it." then you ask why his teammates don't love and respect him the way they do messi. if you have your federation and fifa file an application so the goal of a ball you didn't touch gets credited to you, nobody will love you. these kinds of things can't be obtained with goals, they're won with character. the only thing ronaldo can do is provide goal contributions, and even if he does that, he's actually more of a harm than a contribution to the team. i don't think a single person, the coach included, wants him at the camp, but he's so powerful and has so many fans that people, never mind taking action, are even afraid to comment. go ahead and watch the pundits here, even here they're afraid of the backlash and can't criticize this absurdity. the portuguese are very strange too, they can stomach going through the same thing every tournament with this generation. picture a player who has 970 goals but everyone in the world is sure his team would be more successful without him. just like in the interview he gave in the 2010s where he said "i want to leave at the top, with my honor, at a big club," a person should know how to leave without making themselves say these things. then again, he's the architect of everything he's been through too, he's deserved all of it, that's a separate matter. he'll go out and score 2 goals and walk around again like he's the one who won the cup, and if they get knocked out the only one to blame will be his midfield that won the ucl 2 years in a row, or his coach, and he'll heart the posts that write this.
