more from 'poetry is useless'

whatever you have: talent, a nice car, your eyesight, a refrigerator full of food, good friends it is something the universe has seen fit to lend you. but only for a little while. it doesn't belong to you now any more than it did a thousand years before you were born. and it will be taken away from you again. tomorrow, next week, or in forty-five years in an operation room when the surgeon can't stop the bleeding. or perhaps, more properly speaking. you will be taken away from it. it will be passed along to someone new. again and again forever. so, as everyone knows, the proper thing to do when you receive a gift is to be thankful. if you have a talent, share it. if you have a nice car, give someone a ride. if you have a refrigerator full of food, for god's sake, make yourself something delicious for breakfast. and if you have eyesight, use it to see.

Fandom Problem #5222:

The most pointless discourse comes from people hating villains. They get this concerning intensity about them, go on harassment benders, and generally lose their shit at anyone who likes or finds a villain cool. Listen, um...none of these characters exist. They are made up, works of imagination, not real. Liking Darth Vader doesn't end our world in a blast of Death Star energy because he isn't a real person. It effects NOTHING. Liking an evil vampire doesn't bring actual vampires swarming your house. Also, liking the tamest, most kind characters doesn't mean you're a good person. I have seen the same people who condemn liking a fictional person, cheering on atrocities in the real world

5222 is actually about nihilism coexisting with the beauty of life and humanity and things like this book('poetry is useless') makes me feel so normal

most of the book is this little miogare character talking about random hypotheticals, proposals, and philosophies in a very recognizable absurdist-nihilist fashion. its quite amusing, and extremely unique. i love that the book is just a scrapbook of personal doodles from the author, i first realized it when i saw that words were written in ink and had to be crossed out instead of erased. some pages have lines and holes that survived the scan. its really charming and exciting to seewhat the next page has to offer. this book has a life of its own, as it is like life: its perspective is set on apathy and yet yields fruitful insights on life, not in the words but rather when they are broken up by snippets of live illustrations from real events the author experienced while "writing" the book. how much more real can it get. its neat

so anyway i do like it because i picked it up and saw that miogare archetype, it was like a mirror but 1 month into the past (at the time of picking the book up, itd be like 6 months now). but i only really appreciated it more when i got far enough to see those slice of life snippets i mentioned. i wish i took pictures of the airplane story--someone asks what the book is about, author explains it to them, little conversation about it, how it must be hard writing about such big, trivial philosophical things, then the conversation sort of fizzles out for a bit as they go back to mere passengers on an airplane. then the other person points out how beautiful the view of the sunset is from the aisle window. "yea, it is beautiful" i can't do it justice but it feels like the moment stands for the moment itself. its utterly human in how the conversation was too complex to answer, yet the nature surrounding us could. idk man
