Gue ga ngerti dengan orang-orang yang ketika diceritakan tentang suatu ide atau plan, dia membalas dengan kritikan. Well, maybe you don’t see it, but there’s no need to shoot it down. Coming up with ideas and making them come true is hard enough even without other people discouraging you.
Gue rasa orang-orang ga bakal peduli dengan korupsi asal keadaan dia dan negara ini membaik.
Misalnya, andaikan suatu hari nanti kita dipimpin oleh seorang presiden yang bisa buat pembangunan berjalan merata, pertumbuhan ekonomi luar biasa, rakyat miskin berkurang drastis, lapangan pekerjaan dimana-mana, angka kriminal paling rendah sepanjang sejarah. Kalo tiba-tiba presiden ini ketauan korupsi, gue pribadi bakal bilang, “Biarin aja deh dia korupsi. Hidup gue sekarang lebih enak daripada presiden-presiden sebelumnya kok.”
Jadi kalo di dunia usaha ada istilah social entrepreneur, entrepreneur yang lebih ngejar impact sosial daripada urusan duit doang. Di negara ini, apabila emang korupsi ga bisa hilang sepenuhnya, gue nungguin social corruptor aja deh. Seseorang yang… well… korupsi, tapi tetap lebih mementingkan impact-nya ke masyarakat dibanding duit yang akan dia terima aja.
I wish that when I was younger I could have met my current self. We would have sat down at a coffee shop so that I could explain life to young me in terms that only we would understand. It would have saved me a lot of hardship.
You can listen to all the sage wisdom you want, but things only make…

Say hello to mechanically separated chicken. It’s what all fast-food chicken is made from—things like chicken nuggets and patties. Also, the processed frozen chicken in the stores is made from it.
Basically, the entire chicken is smashed and pressed through a sieve—bones, eyes, guts, and all. it comes out looking like this.
There’s more: because it’s crawling with bacteria, it will be washed with ammonia, soaked in it, actually. Then, because it tastes gross, it will be reflavored artificially. Then, because it is weirdly pink, it will be dyed with artificial color.
But, hey, at least it tastes good, right?
High five, America!
