this blog* is absurd, I love it; because it is useless, I want to give it away;
and because wanting to give it to you serves no purpose, I give it to you…”

From
The Great Man Fernando Pessoa…
“Metaphysics
has always struck me as a prolonged form of latent insanity. If we knew the
truth, we’d see it; everything else is systems and approximations. The
inscrutability of the universe is quite enough for us to think about; to want
to actually understand it is to be less than persons, since to be a person is
to realize it can’t be understood.”
(From
his book, The Book of Disquiet)

Absurd
responsibly. The Buddhist no harm principle applies here. Do not harm
yourself or others when going absurd. (Maybe what I have just written is
absurd?)
