It always seemed to me a bit pointless to disapprove of homosexuality. It's like disapproving of rain. ↗

I like to use my hands and make things... It might seem pretty stupid or pointless but that doesn't matter... some of the most interesting work is the stuff that starts like that - out of a raw need for activity. ↗

The act of bell ringing is symbolic of all proselytizing religions. It implies the pointless interference with the quiet of other people. ↗

And now they were just going to gas him to death? ↗

I mean, I was just one of the ones who got exposed, and because of the position I was in, where I was in my life, it went mainstream.
