Apocalypse means revelation and it's not a self-fulfilling prophesy.

A while ago, I developed this philosophy which I call "Zen Cynicism" in which you become enlightened, realize your connection and relation to every person, creature, plant, and mineral in the world, your place in the vastly infinite web of the universe and you hate every minute of it because it does you no good in a practical, day-to-day sense of the world.

It won't keep you from getting a parking ticket, or do your laundry, or make you loud neighbors shut the fuck up.

It doesn't stop wars.

It doesn't make your lost love come back.

But it's there. And you're aware. And it's beautiful.

So you're ecstatic and miserable at the same time.

Just like God.
