Sleepless in New York at 6am, the neighborhood breakfast attempts to express a coherent thought about an incoherent nag of his past ten years
#Toast Talks#Writer Stuff#Death of the Author#I'm too sleep deprived to be certain but right now this feels like it makes sense#This is the sort of thing I'm talking about to when I say “It's okay to be wrong” about random shit because in some instances it is#Because being right literally doesn't matter all of the time. Or even a lot of the time#Meaning derived from fiction is a perfect example of that#Right and wrong interpretations technically exist just as the answer to the question “is color real” technically has a definitive answer#But the point is that it doesn't actually matter one way or another#So to assert validity on either side is a losing game because you're both equally right and equally wrong#The author's interpretation is the only one that's technically correct but that doesn't make yours incorrect#Because it's not the point and you're missing the forest for the trees overthinking the situation and focusing solely on irrelevant nonsens#Just like a philosopher#The author isn't dead they just don't care and didn't ask what your interpretation is#All they really want to know is how it changed or moved you#Anything more is self-aggrandizing bullshit at best - regardless who is arguing the validity of which
