Life sucks and then you die (but not necessarily)

[Bereta_Eder]

I was thinking about all that office backsgtabbing power politics connections etc and it is all crap. I just want to see new york visit madagascar spend my summers on the greek islands

I have alcohol running through my veins so maybe I get romantic but what allure is there in all that byzantine power politics crap

we only have one life. what matters are the friendships and the love and that's all

[Bereta_Eder]

sometimes you knpow I think of sloww and texas and I kind of imagine him in a big farm with his shotguns and his dogs, king of his domain, doing some self serving job, no master and I kind of think that's what freedom is

[Bereta_Eder]

life in europe is secluded safe civilized ordained REGULATED

however there is not much you can do outside of the norm

maybe in america you can just ride in your car go in the middle of the desert buy some land make some business and be wild free and indepdendet


ot die because you can't afford appendix surgery

or die in europe because of depression because of how devoided of opportunity everything is

[Bereta_Eder]

of course it is the same everywhere

as a greek song says "what use did you have now of those glorious paris of yours? didn't you know the whole world is a teke (kind of low leverl smoking house)

anyway


I remember my friend who risks his life to talk about what's happening in ukraine

he had a safe job safe everything


now he risks his life on a daily basis, is on the target of russia probably but his life has MEANING

[Bereta_Eder]

and I know him and I know he's not a stooge if the US or the west or anyone


just some greek ukrainian kid that wants freedom and is prepared to give his life for it


but no

that's not for me.
maybe I'm too jaded

I know we only live once


you need to make your life your own


epicurus said what matters is pleasure


plato (and peterson) says seeking pleasure is a rotten foundation on where to base your life

[Bereta_Eder]

I see all those lesser sharks their white teeth shining and for what?

if you didn't have an inferiority complex you wouldn't try so hard like a monkey in heat


I know this girl and what fascinates me is her distinct detachment of everything that doesn't concern her.

You can talk about the most serious or the most trivial matter, it will all be judged by the same nonchalant detachment.


You can't impress her with anything. Kind of cool

[Bereta_Eder]

maybe socialism is bad.

maybe we should all be left on our own devices in an inhuman social jungle where there is no social mobility.


But then the same thing would happen again. socialism would rise.

[Bereta_Eder]

I love how america was sellling the drea that you can be anything you want but its neoliberal capitalist ways basically replicate wealth and make impossible any kind of social mobility

and poor old europe with its socialism makes social mobility king


if you want to live your american dream move to europe


then again there is no us no europe

just like a friend of mine who keeps travelling the world

he don't give a f


his favorite continent is africa

[Bereta_Eder]

there's an italian social film playing on TV

I think you should fight for what's right


not for what's opportune

[Bereta_Eder]

what I'm going through is a pig in a slumber that suddendly has a piece of wood stuck in his side and he waves his pig legs around in his slumber trying to get it out so he can comntinue sleeping

[Bereta_Eder]

I really admire my friends


one has basically taken on himself to free ukraine


the other has travel basically the whole world. and he jsut comes froma low income family from port city


I'm not so sure what I have done

stand by my family like a rock

always being employed for 20 years


did what I loved for 10 of them

that's all bullsh!t

still noone can tell me I don't work


wtf is that italian film doing? some hot mamas there

[Bereta_Eder]

freud considered civilization like a major cause of misery

and there is a who;le school of philosophy that consideres civilization ( not the game) as the source of human disconnent



they'd rather smoke weed with tolkien and rub their pointhy ears than face the world

and they're propably right

[Bereta_Eder]

in order not to give a f you have to go back to the source

I remember in an airport in malta there was a piano there and a japanese girl started playing

the point of this story is that there is no meaning

you juts need enough money to travel the world and a job that makes you feel like you're doing something

[Bereta_Eder]

there's a naked italian chick on screen and I approve of this message


also US capitalismlofascism makes elections happen on a tuesday so the working man can't vote

[Bereta_Eder]

now, after the naked italian chick, there's a broadcast about cats

wtf is going on
