📜 So - middle of the night reflection, because I can't seem to post the Patreon piece I need to without saying something deeper here, o CoSo, where the "human" in me is at its safest:
I'm in an odd spot. I'm able to care for many, but I'm in no position to help myself. I'm an immigrant in constant precarity, and also not at all the most vulnerable of immigrants in the world (or of people living in the land of their own birth, for that matter). /x
@MLClark "No god, no purpose save what we make for ourselves. But we keep making TERRIBLE choices."
I once wrote, "The purpose of existence is to be laughed at."
The universe creates us to watch us stumble, fail, fall, screw up, and generally make idiots of ourselves.
We take 80 years to figure it all out. And when we do ... ☠️
The ultimate practical joke.
I have a "fixer" compulsion. I finally realized I can't fix the universe. So I work very hard these days at letting go.
