i know, it's passe, what more can one say?
but it's a new age, you know, it's Ophoria, the honeymoon before we realize, he's just another president
mutually assured destruction, that's why we need nukes
isn't that the conventional wisdom?
i know, arguments and rebuttals have been worked out in exquisite detail in decades past... i'm trying to decide what i think about this, getting back to basics - if i had power, decision making levers, where would i stand?
i'm thinking,
the fact that we have all these weapons lying around
is troubling, disgusting, and no, i don't fit it into some
kind of zen vice thing, "ah, well, humans are quirky creatures,
the shenanigans we get up to, it can't be helped, you give monkeys
a supercharged cerebral cortex and they're gonna split atoms
and figure out how to create a critical mass
and after that...
politics...
hiroshima
nagasaki
ended WWII?
was it justified?
NO FATE BUT WHAT WE MAKE FOR OURSELVES

Metallica And Justice For All, AK-47, Terminator 2
I can't remember if metallica has two 'l's or not"
NO!
No, it's not a goddamn zen vice, it's not something we can live with
i think we should declare ourselves sane
and disarm immediately
yes, i still think about nukes
because of that acid trip i had a few weeks ago
where i was 100% convinced i was seeing the eschaton
the sad end of humanity, we all said fuck it,
we aren't worth saving
and nuked ourselves
maybe i'm still jittering from that last acid trip - maybe if i stop taking psychedelics i will realize that the apocalypse is not immanent... hmmm....
