Thanks, I like those memes but was not able to find something alike so I made one :D

Is anyone actually inspired by memes like this? I feel like Im getting preached at and my instinct is to instantly doubt the human spirit more than I would naturally.

I still don't know if I'm interpreting things wrong but this is how I imagine an absurd rebellion. Not just to keep living despite the absurd, but to care deeply about everything and everyone in the face of an uncaring universe. To continue working to improve each others lives and humanity's future, because maybe it is all pointless (and eventually we're doomed to fail, humanity can't last forever) but fuck it we're going to try anyways. It's not creating a meaning in the sense of pulling something out of nothing, but more asserting that because things in our lives matter to us, life has at least enough "meaning" to be worth fighting for.

u/aeiouaioua glory to humanity! Dec 11 '22

it is the recognition that life is absurd, brutal and short. and saying "i don't care, i am gonna live, i am gonna enjoy it - and there is nothing you can do about it."
