As though this earth did not raise us, give us the means necessary for a spectacular evolution of body and mind? You don't think it was nature in the first place that brought us to the point where we could have the intelligence and brain capacity to create technology? Look down. I bet you have nipples. Like all other mammals. Somehow that tells me nature still governs us, a little.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8832236349540926420.post-57021184252194214172011-12-08T09:40:02.243-06:002011-12-08T09:40:02.243-06:00"The point is that we need to go back to wher..."The point is that we need to go back to where we came from to rediscover ourselves."<br /><br />BS. There is no such thing as "nature." All there is is "social." Just say what you mean. You don't like technology. That's all fine and dandy, but don't judge us if we like it. You just throw in the nature part because you want to appeal to some kind of authority of nature. Doesn't exist. You're trying to claim authority where it doesn't exist. You might as well appeal to the Bible. You're doing the same thing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8832236349540926420.post-54346084461321815602011-12-07T16:25:00.270-06:002011-12-07T16:25:00.270-06:0011:15 - great speculation but I said we must appea...11:15 - great speculation but I said we must appeal to nature, not our natural instincts exactly. So yeah, we can eat, sleep, have sex, and go to the bathroom like animals, but that's not really the point. <br />The point is that we need to go back to where we came from to rediscover ourselves and what purpose we could possibly have is going to be in nature. As humans who orient ourselves around technology and stuff that keeps us removed from nature, we forget what it is to be one of earth's living beings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8832236349540926420.post-11439356327623931452011-12-06T23:15:58.834-06:002011-12-06T23:15:58.834-06:00"If there is any happiness, it is to be found..."If there is any happiness, it is to be found in nature, in our animal roots.

There's nothing more natural than that! I suppose you could go to the bathroom afterwards. That's natural too.<br /><br />I am so happy that Scott Walker decided to weigh in on this meaningless issue. Let's have the biggest airhead in Wisconsin shed his pearls of wisdom upon us all. He'll probably try to find out if there was a way that meaninglessness could create jobs and "bring business back to Wisconsin!" Hell ya! Let's get some businesses that sell some big whopping shits of emptiness. Oh wait. We already have advertisers.

That's all life is really is a series of repetitions with some nice moments splashed in-between. Living despite it's complications remains quite popular. <br /><br />people could always do what I do.

Actions speak louder than words right? You say happiness is just the lack of suffering. Why can't it be the other way around. Suffering is just the lack of happiness. And you really think that in a billion years the human race will not have figured out a solution to the sun problem. No real way of knowing. But human civilization has been around what 5000 measurable years give or take a few thousand years. I'm pretty confident in 1,000,000,000 years we will have figured it out. Just because were all going to die does mean it's all worthless. Worth is in the eye of a beholder. Make a child laugh and honestly say that that action was worthless. If you do think it was worthless then take my advise in the first sentence.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8832236349540926420.post-70498520201238758312011-12-06T13:00:34.428-06:002011-12-06T13:00:34.428-06:00This post is about the human condition. And why we...This post is about the human condition. And why we let ourselves suffer in the first place. Why do we care to grow? To seek knowledge? To find transcendence? To understand love and the workings of the universe? Why do we care to find a purpose? Can we not just accept that we have no purpose and we only live for the sake of surviving, but we're only surviving so that the same series of events can continue on ad infinitum? That life is nothing but a grand misfortune? A tumbling of forces, stirring around, chasing us at all times, waiting to grip us in misery, while all we live for is to avoid it, so we run and leap and try to make strides in life, overcoming the dark forces of sadness, guilt, anxiety, distrust, anger, and hate, and for what? So we can just die a few years later, and seemingly entertain a more worthwhile, pleasant, and meaningful life? The truth is we'll never avoid it. We'll always be running away from suffering, and suffering will always catch us, over and over and over again.<br /><br />You all think I'm talking about my life. My individual life. Well I'm not. I'm talking about ALL of life. Every living thing on this earth is just trying to survive. Happiness doesn't come from anywhere. Happiness doesn't exist. Happiness is nothing more than the absence of suffering and the ignorance of future suffering. Day to day, I would say I'm pretty happy because I'm rarely suffering and I try not to think about this shit country full of shit people, shit work, shit education, and shit values. I get personal glimpses of happiness that appear to be true, everlasting, astounding, fulfilling, satisfying, and real. But all in all, it's an illusory image. An illusory sense. <br /> <br />If there is any happiness, it is to be found in nature, in our animal roots. We must appeal to nature to understand ourselves. And nature is devalued daily. The truly happy beings on this earth are animals, like squirrels merrily chasing each other, unaware of the car that is about to crush them as they skip across the road. Unaware of their existence, they are unaware of their inevitable non-existence as well. Thus, they are truly one with the world. Humans cannot be this way. The art we create will always be nothing but an invalid extension of our feelings and our creative powers, and it is always left up for interpretation, for others to perceive incorrectly every time. When I look at the art I've created, I have a sense of joy, but I remember it's nothing but a board and some paint, and others will see what they want to see in it. A useless extension of myself that ultimately has no purpose other than to sooth my own despair. Art has no real value in the concrete world. And the abstract world is what we create in our minds, and express through art, just to make ourselves feel better about the concrete world we're all inevitably stuck to. <br /><br />This isn't about finding happiness. Or "living in the moment" or being "happy with what you have" or not seeing "the glass half empty". It's not about my life, and me complaining about my life. It's about everyone. It's about despairing over humanity's futile existence. We mean nothing to the universe. Our sun does not rise everyday to show us how much it loves us. Heck, it'll be gone in a few billion years anyway, and everything we've done here on Earth will have been a complete waste. Every war we've suffered through, every religion we've fought endlessly for, every power struggle we've strenuously encountered, every love we've lost, every ounce of compassion we've sickened ourselves with, every investment we make towards Truth and Love is washed away, and the more we invest, the more we suffer in the end. So I say, why not give it all up?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8832236349540926420.post-25495173071402461192011-12-06T02:04:20.228-06:002011-12-06T02:04:20.228-06:00"They're only there to try to pull us out..."They're only there to try to pull us out of suffering, by giving us art, music, theater, poetry, dance, and everything else created in order to release minute fractions of the immense pain that consumes us."<br /><br />So why don't you try making your own art.
