the universal college experience, no matter your major, is learning how remarkably fucked everything is. except business majors theyre having a great time learning to do basic arithmetic and and staring at that one supply and demand graph where the line goes up
the particular grief of losing a piece of graffiti that was part of your everyday routes through the city. congratulations "anti-vandalism initiatives" you painted over my dear friend and neighbor
i keep thinking about the course of the day from prime!Waymond’s perspective and it’s like.
your business is failing, and you need to do your taxes. your father-in-law is here and he’s always disapproved of you, but he’s also dying or at least in extremely poor health and you have to take care of him. your daughter is pulling away from her mother. your wife is pulling away from you. your wife finds the divorce papers you were going to give her, and then all of a sudden she punches your auditor in the face and then the security rushes in, and then next second you’re in a dark office space while the building’s in lockdown. and then your wife is fighting with the auditor again and your father-in-law speaks English now? and also your wife is tying your daughter to a chair because sometimes she gets controlled by a raccoon? apparently? and she gets superpowers if she does something weird and is also really good at kung fu now, and your father-in-law had a gun and a power wheelchair and is now some kind of army commander. and he’s sending people to attack your family. one them is trying to shove an accounting trophy into his butt. your wife fights until she collapses in your arms, and then she’s having an all-out brawl in the middle of the IRS building lobby. also, your daughter is now an nigh-omniscient, living god figure capable of warping reality itself to her will, but she’s also in such a deeply depressive episode and that she’s willing to destroy the universe along with herself.
and after all that irrational, illogical and unexplained violence, you can only lean back on one thing. and you try to implore kindness and you try to implore compassion, and you try to implore hope, and you try to convince your wife that there’s a better way to fight. and it works, but just barely, and then your wife is also now capable of warping reality for some reason. oh and. she stabbed you, but then she listens to you, and she saves your daughter and herself and also the universe, maybe?Â
When I choose to see the good side of things, I’m not being naive. It is strategic and necessary. It’s how I’ve learned to survive through everything.
