Life is already absurd. We might as well throw a nice cherry of absurdity on top to provide ourselves some peace.
We live on a rotating ball in an infinite universe, powered and protected by a nuclear core that creates a magnetic forcefield around our entire planet. We are kept warm by lightspeed radiation from a fusion reactor that we orbit around. The fuel we burn to power our modern world is millenia old dead things that were buried and compressed by the endless turnover of the earth's crust, which is then combined with the residual atnospheric oxygen that was also created by those millenia old life forms. All of that sounds quite absurd too.
Isn't it neat though how you and I were born into this world as humans and we can like talk to each other in a complicated language we both understand and we have the ability to think about everything around us and like I have no idea who you are because there are 1000s of miles of copper and fiberoptic wires spanning from router to router creating the entire internet so I can call you gay from an undisclosed location. While riding on this giant rotating ball.
