Life & Death
What shall I do, while I slowly wait to die?
Make a time-lapse movie of my withering decrepitude?
Tell a thousand jokes on Twitter that people will scroll past in their own journey toward death?
In trying to create meaning out of no meaning
We come up with some really strange, elaborate and often internally inconsistent ideas
All of which are designed to distract us from the mirror.
