A NeoPrePostModern Retrodictive Of Bygone Futurity

Maintaining a sense of awe and wonder when Nothing Should Come as a Surprise Anymore —or a scintilla of the semblance of a sense of sanity— or humor.

My Dinner With Andre (1981)

[brainsturmunddrang]

Attend company social functions Particularly the boss’s parties But don’t indulge too much If the booze is free it’s probably a test Have you RSVPed to the Holiday Party? It’s Christmas-themed but we don’t call it that to avoid offending Tristan Have you met Tristan? You’ll remember when you meet Tristan He’ll make sure you do and how to spell his last name Make sure you welcome the new guy in accounting He’s going to have to sign off on all your receipts Just because it’s in the break-room fridge Doesn’t mean it’s up for grabs Unless you didn’t label it The company gym equipment is there for you to use it because they care about your health And getting you to lose 15 lbs lowers their insurance premiums Respect personal space HR can’t be everywhere but your couth should be According to Stephanie in HR it’s not racist if Clarence says it Just don’t ever quote Clarence Watch out for that Reply All button It can be a doozy

Welcome to the company We have a super-fun and laid-back office culture here Keep a clean and orderly workspace Return phone calls and reply to emails by end of business day Be an effective listener Feel free to socialize around the water cooler Current events make great icebreakers But avoid office gossip Break bread with colleagues Eating together is a team-building exercise Carry your own weight Nobody likes the burden of a lazy team mate Discuss conflicts discreetly Don’t air dirty laundry when a disagreement arises Be a team player There’s more than one “i” in “financially profitable organization”

Establish goals Aim high with your feet firmly on the ground Apply yourself Go confidently in the direction of your dreams Forge your own path along the road less traveled Give yourself permission to make mistakes Everybody starts out as a novice Practice makes perfect No problem is so large that it can’t be solved by dividing into smaller tasks Take a leap of faith It’ll all work out

Life is what you make of it Happiness is a choice It takes more muscles to frown than it does to smile Put on a happy face Look on the bright side Life's little setbacks are gifts to teach you how to be better Open your heart and let life in Love is all around you If you have eyes to see it You’re stronger than you think

Please send help. We’re all gonna die here. Clinging to each other as we perish. Spinning in circles. Hurtling through the void.

[brainsturmunddrang]

You’ll find it’s a little lopsided.

We always do. They always are.

[brainsturmunddrang]

Find the beauty in everyday things

Follow the impulse to create Don’t think Feel Embrace your inner child Shed your armor Be vulnerable Find your muse Choose a perspective Find your voice Express yourself Speak your unvarnished truths Satirize the inane futility of the human condition Contextualize the tragic comedy of finding meaning in the pursuit of meaning Believe in serendipity Have faith in fate Your destiny awaits your embrace

Every day is a gift Every moment has meaning Everything in the universe is exactly how it should be Nothing is out of place Nothing is random That which Is is not by accident Pleasure and pain are merely sensations Don’t become attached Don’t push away Don’t crave Don’t recoil Just breathe Stay grounded in the present moment Everything happens for a reason

Knowing the truth, which is that nothing matters, can actually save you. Once you get through that terrifying threshold of accepting that, then every place is the centre of the universe, and every moment is the most important moment, and everything is the meaning of life.

Dan Harmon, creator of Community and co-creator of Rick and Morty. (via samcsrennie)

When nothing is holy

No thing is holy

Everything is.
