To crush your beer cans, to pee it out before you, to hear the poppng of the bottle caps.

Because it should not be forgotten...

It's truly remarkable how upset people can get about these truths, how desperately they want to paper over them with "purpose".

I think they actually offer some kind of consolation.

Excellent point - enjoy the ride, feast on the universe as best you can (especially bacon), then wither to dust. It's beautiful.

..and of course sad too. But what a time to have lived, right? What a magnificent, hopelessly foolish, incredibly smart lot we are - and the stuff we have done - it is amazing. I feel very lucky to have lived in the time I have. But realistically I don't have much time left now.

I'd love to see what really happens next..

At least we know nobody is spared, not even Kim Jong-un. But this is no excuse to live like assholes.
