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.

Though Zen isn't necessarily about unity.
I still love it, though. I'm just feeling conversational today. Too little human interaction lately.

It is a wide gulf to cross between inner and outer perfections. Best.

I really want to go traveling with you this year- maybe up to Canada to see my family, go to the ranch (which isn't a ranch anymore, but...). I wish you could come to Montana with me. I really want to take some extra time off to check out Glacier NAtional Park, do some comping/hiking...

you can do it every day, just do a little something so that people will remember you after you're gone. like if you see a kid eating an ice cream cone just go up to him and smash it into his face and yell "YOU REMEMBER ME FOREVER!!!".
because YOU KNOW That when that kid is fifty he is going to be telling that story "once i was eating an ice cream cone and a man came up to me. i did not know this man. he smashed my ice cream treat in and around my eyes and yelled at me 'you fuckin' remember me forever'"
but i did NOT say fucking.
he deserves to get ice cream smashed in and around his eyes because he is a lying 50 year old man. i did NOT say fucking.
dane cook is a funny biotch, i highly reccomend him.
