I really, really, really like one of my supervising attorneys, she’s warm and a little bit crazy and the only one I feel comfortable talking politics and religion and other personal things with, even when we disagree, but---

honestly? if she tells me one more time that “things happen for a reason” and I’ll “look back on [this period of my life] having learned something valuable” I will not be held responsible for my actions.

#sometimes. existence is just fucking terrible.#we pull meaning out of chaos and dreck but the chaos and dreck is not purposeful it's not ordained or intended #the chaos and dreck is not something the overcome; it happens like star death or cancer or whatever other random cruelty exists #it just exists. it is the enduring wonderfulness of people that we pull something like coherence from it.#the coherence is fake and the triumph is created wholecloth from our brains but it's no less real by being fake #you get me?#anyway life is shit that's all you're getting the end #celestial emporium of benevolent knowledge
