    I am laughing at myself because I find myself irrationally frustrated by the asymmetry of her dance. All of her step movements are in one direction, and then back to center.

    Why are we like this? What a stupid thing to get irritated about. And yes, you too, reader, have pet peeves. Maybe different ones, but it’s still silly to get irritated by them.

      People love symmetrical patterns and proper ratios our brains seem to be fine tuned to noticing and examining them for information and correlation. Theres a billion theories as to why, nobody really knows. Me I personally think that the universe in totality is somewhat conscious and has a deep appreciation for the fundimental abstract truths baked into the concepts of symmetry and higher levels of complexity forming beautiful tapestries of order. As we are higher complexity beings spawned from the universe we inherit this appreciation that lead to the creation of life and our awareness in the first place.

      Laughing at your illogical thinking is a good sign though!

      Just imagining showing the video to someone and them going, “But…her movements aren’t symmetrical!!” as a missile launcher rolls in behind her is pretty funny, and very on brand for the energy of the OP.
