Living In Hell

I try to avoid humans as best I can, especially when they are unknown to me or sometimes when they do become known to me. There are people I talk to, but those are the ones I have good reason to trust. It's a short list, the ones I trust, considering I've been on this planet for 62 years and I write this blog.

Today I looked in my gmail Trash folder and found a bunch of shit like this (sender withheld).

who are you and what are you trying to send me?

Have a great day

That blue-shaded text seems to have come from me, but of course it did not. That happened on Sunday, and today is Tuesday, so I didn't even see it until just now.

Now you know why, generally speaking, I do my best to avoid humans unless I have very good reasons to trust them.

And then there is stuff from people I do talk to from time to time. This one is from Jim Kunstler.

Jesus Fucking Christ!

I have spent a lot of time on DOTE talking about how fucked up Homo sapiens is. I have talked about Big Brains Going Haywire. I have talked about an evolutionary "experiment" (our species) which went very, very wrong. 

I meant every fucking word of it. And so did Kurt Vonnegut when he referred to the human condition as "this crock of shit."

"Why," I have asked myself over and over again, "do I have to live in a world full of dangerous big-brained bipedal predators who will go way out of their way to fuck with me, or fuck me over, even as I do my very best to avoid them?"

And the only answer I came up with is "because that's the way it is. Suck it up."

I am exposed writing this blog of course. But I decided the comfort I might give to some outweighed the pain I might suffer as a result. I have often been wrong about that.

I'm sure I'm not the only person who has come to believe that he/she is living in Hell. 

When that existentialist douchebag Jean-Paul Sartre said "hell is other people," he was,  for once, on to something.

And here's what I intend to do about this e-mail fiasco — nothing at all!  I'll be damned if I'll let big brains gone haywire jerk me around, at least if I can possibly avoid it. Fuck 'em!!!

I would contact/apologize to all those I know who received an e-mail from "me" saying I wanted to send them "wealth management" documents, but of course I never sent any such e-mail.

As it happens, for someone who's had their computer infected with a virus and has inadvertently sent a load of spam out, I think your rant is quite restrained, sir.
