not to be insensitive but tbh I don’t really feel bad for jim morrison’s death mythologizing him as a martyr to rock because in the last few weeks I have read a significant amount of the fucked up esoteric philosophy that inspired the doors and I am now 100% certain that jim was perfectly self-aware of the consequences of how he cultivated his public image and knew exactly what would happen if his choices led to an untimely end. I’m not saying that’s why he died but I am saying he saw the writing on the wall so I’m not gonna do him the disrespect of pitying him for purposefully embodying the tragic poet
