I think astrology is really fucking stupid and it annoys the fuck out of me when people won't shut the fuck up about it, especially when they KNOW you don't believe in it. The whole relationship I've wanted to say that but I bit my fucking tongue, but I'm single now (and high) so fuck you.
There I fucking said it. No I don't want to debate about it, I'm venting, let me have this tonight.
Whenever people tell me something about astrology (implying they believe in it) I can't help but start thinking in a societally critical descriptive way. Like Disco Elysium describes social phenomena or Modernists in general.
"Astrology is the belief that someone's personality, habits, and even fate are written in the stars when they are born, and their relationships between each other depend on which of 12 calendar periods they were born in. These correspond to the star shapes present in the plane of the sun as it moves around the earth according to an influential Greek that popularized the idea. When we learned that the earth actually orbited the sun, very little changed in astrology. While astrology has historically been a very complex topic, the modern Western version is mostly about advice columns from unaccredited hacks and explaining problems in romantic relationships. The person I am talking to is trying to socialize with me through their appreciation of astrology but I'm just trying to get them to come to a meeting organized by communists."
