does anyone else?

"fuck.  not another random rant.  go to sleep, sammy.  sleep is your friend.  like literally, you have friends in your sleep dreams."

yes, sure, whatever.  important thoughts:

does anyone else sit and think about how we all just live on this big rock floating through space?

like, we're basically just parasites on this bumpy chunk of not-vacuum tumbling around.

nothing we do matters.  there isn't an afterlife where we get to have angel orgies or whatever religions promise.  you die.  you stop thinking forever, because the thing that did the thinking doesn't work anymore.  you're like the pump in the soap dispenser that doesn't dispense soap because it ran out of soap.

but seriously,

nothing matters.  so everyone should probably try harder to not be such an ass to other people, because they're just trying to survive long enough that when they die (and stop thinking forever), they don't feel awful about everything.

so when i see things like this irish vote to make gay marriage totally not an issue, i stop and think about how much i should be like, "whoa.  yay!"

but then i i think about how much that not already being a thing that's ok is fucking awful.  we all die, we all get eaten by worms until we turn into dirt, and then those worms die and that dirt is sucked into the earth to make new continents far far away a billion years from now.

why does it matter then that you married XX instead of XY?

it doesn't.  nothing matters.  we all end up in the same way, after about the same amount of years.


so why do we have to fight so much to get everyone to accept this fact?

  1. Hi.
    The rock is not that big ;)
    There are other rocks out there... maybe even one with our planet's name on it.
    But why stress over it?
    Every time man looked up at the sky it was humbled by how small and short lasting our existence is. That is why it invented religion. Some people need it to feel safe and sane and explain the unexplainable.
    Anyway, it's all in our head... you can live in paradise but after a while it will seem mundane and boring, especially if you're more preoccupied with getting the next meal and surviving.
    On a small scale everything you do matters, even if you get up from bed in the morning or sleep more so better get some sleep and wake up rested for tomorrow is another day.
    Take care!

    1. no. stop.

      read it all again. why do people like me (and other people fighting the same kind of fight) have to fight out to make everyone respect that they deserve the same kind of stuff.

      why is "oh, you like that, good on you, let's have some cake" not the default response when people say stuff.

      everyone everywhere should be able to have some cake. no matter what.

      this is my point. like. cake..

      i'm drunk now, so can i just wave my arms and have everyone understand?

      cake?

      we'll make some pies too. so you can have either. i don't care, i just want you to be happy, and maybe to get a hug sometimes.
