(Philoso)Thoughts – Thisabsurdworld

811.

Beyond that I can say nothing of this. And what I have said about it so far, says nothing about it.

810.

Philosophers are those who are not uncomfortable with the uncertainty and chaos of reality

809.

Fakeness is the only reality we can have

808.

The fact that comedy does better than philosophy is further proof of the social theatre

807.

You do not need to be understood within your lifetime to make a change. Many were overlooked.

806.

A society where unmarketable thoughts have no place

805.

Society needs madmen to exist so that they can define their own normalcy

804.

‘My art’ is not my art at all. If I find something and then show it to you, is it then mine? Or was I simply the one to pick it up?

802.

To be like something is not to be at all

801.

I never thought life would be this way. What way? I have no idea

800.

Some hand of God in the clouds. Was it not something beyond everything that had called me to that storm, to that place?

They would say I was in a trance, and when I came back and thought about it, it felt like that yes, but I realized that this [social theatre] is the trance and for a moment there I was allowed to escape it.

798.

And I knew I would not remember. Because to remember is only the theatre

797.

I was scared of them, can you hear them laughing, singing, talking? They would say I am mad, talking to myself. But it is the social theatre that makes us mad. I could feel their eyes and ears every time they passed. I was afraid of them, I did not want to go back.

796.

I walked to the storm, I thought tonight was my night to die. Lightning would strike and take me. I escaped the theatre and saw something beyond it. I realized I could never tell anyone, I am simply unable to. I didn’t want to go back. But I had to. I had to go back to the theatre.

795.

I was in a world without humanity tonight; indescribable

794.

The social theatre is the insane asylum

793.

Can a madman say he is mad?

792.

Only because you can’t understand it, doesn’t mean it’s not real

791.

We call the social theatre reality and everything beyond it is fantasy

790.

The eyes are the audience in the social theatre

789.

Observation is not objective

788.

We try to fit everything in the categories that we already have, before even considering making a new one

787.

Everything exists next to each other and they do not clash, only in your head

786.

As long as there is true uncertainty; there is humbleness

785.

Am I what I sing?

784.

Humans have many sides, you know. I guess you don’t because you’ve hidden away parts of yourself to fit into a mould that has been placed on you since birth

783.

The possibility of death is real

782.

The outcome of philosophy: also nothing (just like everything else)

781.

We are the searching animal

780.

When you cry, I laugh. When you laugh, I die

779.

Who are you when the curtains close? But the curtains never close. The curtains never close

778.

The valuation of smoking depends on your perception of death

777.

In any family, community, you are forced to be not an individual, for there you are only in relation to others. In my family I am son or brother.

776.

Gay is only my label, not my identity

775.

Observation is interpretation. Observation is subjective

774.

Different methods of fleeing are not hierarchical; one is not better than the other

773.

Is it okay to flee?

772.

We will never know freedom because we are eternally stuck in fleedom

771.

I am also doomed to flee to my own order and answers. Everyone has their own things to flee to; that is how humanity works. Writing stuff like this and believing it, is my point of fleedom

770.

When I am dead; I am gone from this earth. Nothing I have written or said or sung can ever capture me again

769.

I am also in religion; as everyone is. But I am in the religion that says that religion is merely an escape. But we can almost do no different than escape: humans are the escaping animal.

768.

When you realize others are just as confused as you; you realize the equality. This is why arrogance and certainty are big problems

767.

We are exactly that animal that creates order and then forgets that it created it. And also the animal that reminds its fellow animals that they have forgotten that

766.

Before we take action we must change our perspective; before we do things to better the world, we must change our perspective on it.

765.

Without solitude there is no escape from acting and so no space for ideas beyond acting

764.

There are no primary texts; what we now call primary texts are secondary texts. The ‘real’ primary texts only exist in the head of the (usually already deceased) person.

763.

If something is uncomfortable to us, why would we buy it? But we find comfort in certain types of uncomfort. But it must be that type of uncomfortable to sell. And so in capitalism we are limited in this; I can not sell something that everyone finds very uncomfortable

762.

What we say is always the same; ever and ever. Someone has died in our lives; this is nothing new. We have thought of something brilliant; this is nothing new for it is about ‘better’. Always about better. Ever and ever the same

761.

Politics fail because they only reason in the social theatre

760.

Seeing your son be who you were not. Does it hurt you?

759.

Fleeing from meaning; is that not the other extreme? And again an unhealthy fleeing? But perhaps not unhealthy because the world is without meaning

758.

True passion is the only thing that brings me back to living in the social theatre (with mind also); passion for someone (love) or passion for some activity (art)

757.

Distance-ism: is it a viable option? Is it a happy life? A real/genuine one? It seems no happy life

756.

There is no rush

755.

Playing with the fabric of life

754.

Our fundament floats in nothingness. While we think that it rests on something

753.

You long for something and you are frustrated that it is not there. But when it is there, you do not long for it anymore. And so its meaning is gone. Once you have reached something, its meaning, its value is gone; the value of longing for it is gone

752.

Why are you smiling to yourself, thinking: ‘I know this or that’. Do you not see the fundamental nothingness of life?

751.

What can you say about a whole if you only know something about a part and don’t even know how big or small this part is in relation to the whole?

750.

The structure of social interaction

749.

Worldbreakers are worldchangers

748.

What can we do with meaninglessness? (The meaninglessness that we mean in the social theatre)

747.

Living meaninglessly; is that possible? Isn’t that impossible if we say that humans are the animal that function by meaning? Am I then doomed to live meaningfully?

746.

Drawing without meaning; is this possible? What do we do with this?

745.

There must be some mindlessness in life, right?

744.

You take someone else’s name and take it upon you because you agree with them! What are you doing?! Why are you throwing away your life by hanging your life in someone else’s closet that they have built?!

743.

I am merely a servant to the ideas and words that flow through me

742.

And what about (other) animals? Humanity-love says nothing about that, right? Must there then be a life-love? Of course, I think. How should ‘nature’ be treated in the ideal social theatre?

741.

If we take a different standard than ‘human’, then we automatically miss humanity-love, then we automatically make a hierarchy, then we automatically include and exclude

740.

I remember many days that I have thought: ‘today I will not act’. But every time I am forced to do so; forced to function like this because I am human. And I must be human, I can be no else. I would call this a cruel fate again; the fate of being human, but I know that it is not cruel at all; that it is merely perceived as cruel by humans. It is not cruel, simply the way it is.
