why do we use the same old archetypes in literature and art and music? i guess we have to. is it an inherited part of our consciousness that we know what is good or evil, happy/sad, strong/weak, etc., or do we just swallow everything fed to us? these are rhetorical questions.

i feel like one of those puppy dogs, situated like a sphinx on the ground, with my muzzle pressed on top of my paws.

there's always some bullshit ladder to climb.

i'd rather be eaten by alligators that surround castles.

so, there's love, and then there's pain, and there's happiness, and there's anger, and there's yay and there's i want to die, and there's wow and there's fuck, and there's all this crap. it's nothing. some synapse in your brain gets jumped by a neurotransmitter and BAM! suddenly there's a feeling, all in your brain, nothing you can physically feel, and you label it as something you perceive as either "good" or "bad." and the absence of these electrical pulses is what make us "feel" like we feel nothing, like we're blank and blah blah blah. so we only feel human because we think we feel. who says you feel anything? you don't feel. you think. so think better. it's all a big scam.
