theres existential pessimism, and then theres my new patched version, existential super pessimism: legendary edition HD

2020s will be the Roaring 20s because the broken bodies of the poor will be shoveled into roaring furnaces to power the ghoulish necro-dwellings of the hyper-wealthy deep underground as the earth heats to apocalyptic levels

carnal pleasure to alleviate disintegrating psychic terror?!

whenever people ask me what im doing, i always say "just responding normally to some stimuli"

@t54r4n1 did you hear about Dorktown

listening to a country record

using evil demon energy to master the elements of earth and hell

by that same systemized token, the creator, being connected to the genius work or genius act, would be IMPLIED to be a genius, having birthed genius, but thats about as true as saying the parents of geniuses are themselves geniuses because their child is. it MAY be true, but its not INHERENTLY true

so in this sense a work or act can itself be raised to the degree of genius but not necessarily emanate from a genius creator, because thats just a name we have for an intensity of an action or a work

so in this sense, the genius of an individual never NECESSARILY escapes its node; all actions done by a genius are genius-derived but may not interiorly be genius-action. like a genius can burn their hand on a stove or say something inadvertently cruel or whatever

a brief, one-node/connector example: a novel can be "arting", so to speak, at a psyche, or the "arting" can be manifesting itself through the act of "novel". a little vague, but i think you get it

this touches on a fun aspect of modal system theory, where objects or actions becomes either nodes or connectors, with the entire map being reversible so you think of actions as gerunds and objects as the function those gerunds perform

funny true thought: it does not take a genius to produce genius-level work, nor does genius-level work retroactively make its creator a genius

this is going to sound weird maybe, but manga has made me more relaxed and confident in my voice for literary fiction
