This guy, as well as Schopenhauer of course, actually buoy my waterlogged spirit. There's a certain comfort in listening or reading someone who can state our collective horrifying predicament so eloquently and with compassion.

Hey wonkmonk, I just finished listening to Conspiracy by Ligotti. Now that I know who Zapffe is, I'm going to listen to this. I can't tell you how much I appreciate your reading style and dedication to this. I was blown away by the book. It's the first time I really felt validated in my feelings about life.

Consciousness is nature's nightmare

Good quote

[@CorvusCoroneCanisLupusSawel]

i've always said that. the only difference between man and nature is that we kill for no gain and we have consciousness; god's biggest fuck ups
