compiling sources on disco elysium and suicidality and absurdity like a squirrel hoarding acorns for the winter
#there's not a ton of stuff abt the specific intersection of ideas that i'm looking at so a lot of stuff is like extraneous analysis#but i found someone's substack from like 2 years ago and i left an inaproppriately enthusiastic comment about how good their framing is#and how insightful their writing is#too many exclamation points for a comment where i describe suicidal ideation in more concrete terms than i ever have out loud#txt#i think this mind project is centered around obviously de + this substack + camus's myth of sisyphus + an essay on suicidism that i <3#but i want more to gnaw on#i think the next step is finding more stuff surrounding camus#like i think the stranger is an hdb figure#but also reading more sartre (which influenced sisyphus) AND finding scholarship on suicidality that is derivative of camus#i think there's also a marxist or more generally communist angle to take#like obviously doing marxist analysis of de is like a huge task#but i think that finding marxist takes on suicide would be useful#i also think that i can apply a lot of the gombrowicz/gombrowicz-centric scholarship that i've read or am going to read#in terms of realism vs the grotesque ESPECIALLY cosmos which is a noir... it's on my bedside........
