What a hopeless philosophy!

Just a realist. I sometimes envy people who have never had their fond illusions shattered. I tried hard for a number of years to drink enough to induce enough brain damage to join them in their blythe oblivion. Didn't work. So yeah, I gave up hope on that strategey just like I gave up hope on catching a glimpse of Santa Clause as soon as I got old enough to realize he didn't exist.
Onto plan B. Given the fact that most of human social interraction and happy get along is based on a fiction that I can't believe, what do I do? Hang w/ ppl who don't hold those illusions? Try and find something to respect about them others who are immersed in them and learn how to tip toe lightly around their illusions so as not to disturb them? Or just give the fuck up and make peace with knowing that my children and grandchildren will be slaves and chattal cause no mother fucker in my world is willing, consistently, to acknowledge and respond to what's going on?
Some other plan? Anybody? Can I get a 50 gal drum of Fuckitol from WalMart and make it all go down easier?

I suggest hard drugs. Really, they work, but they won't if you keep immersing yourself in Straight survivor stuff, it'd be like picking the scab off a wound.
I don't have kids, so I don't give a flying fuck about the future of the world or whatever, I mean, I try not to make things worse for anyone, but I'm tired of the bullshit. I just want to get wasted and forget about it, like that line in the Dylan song, I wanna go somewhere where "no one has to think too much/ about Desolation Row".
Eventually, I want to be on a tropical island surrounded by naked women, but failing that, I'll take an overdose in a cheap hotel room over constantly thinking about Straight all the goddamn time, any day.
The whole "survivor" mentality, although preferable to one of "victim", is still influenced by Straight, I want to move beyond that or die trying, I'm really really tired of the whole thing, and after the memorial service, I intend on taking a long respite from these boards, it weirds me out too much, coming here all the time.
