    And the consequences of these mimetic desires can result in the death of millions, or simply the ruining of a once close friendship.

    I have a friend who suffered from AMPS when she was a kid. She went through a rehabilitation program and was one of two survivors in a group of 30, all of whom she made deep connections with, and many of whom ended their lives. When she told me her story, I could not stop crying. The emotional and physical pain that some people undergo truly makes me wonder why some people are born to suffer that way…

    As someone who hinges my entire identity on being against war, I cannot fail to acknowledge my own capacity for evil. I am nothing more than average and I am overeducated in using complex sounding language to compensate for my lack of liveliness and intelligence. I can't handle solitude because when I am alone, the realization dawns on me that I am alone because I am nothing special. This fuels the purported genius of my hatred in a self-perpetuating cycle of demise towards everyone around me. I simply cannot stand the failure of my own art and there is part of me that would rather watch the world end than to persist with my own purported art being destroyed. I can blame the police for corrupting me with violence, I can blame my family for corrupting me with contaminated blood and a hideous body, and I can blame the world for corrupting me with cultural hypnosis. In the end, I would be celebrated and well respected if I created better art. I would be loved by women if I truly had a soul. So in seeing that I am entirely average, what is the use in continuing to fill the world with the stupidity of my false morals and cheap mimicry? What is the use in continuing to blame women for never giving me the tender warmth of their hearts? What is the use in continuing to even go in public when my greatest use to the world is my own solitude? There is no use, because I am incapable of becoming as important as I have led myself to believe.

      Don't be so hard on yourself, man. You are valuable as a person irrespective of ability or social rank. Don't pay too much mind to what this poem says. At the end of the day, this is just entertainment. Bukowski wasn't a deep thinker and you shouldn't base your entire existence on whether you happen to occupy the image he's putting forward in this poem.
      The wisest people in history have all told us that the worth of a human being isn't based on their external abilities. The true path toward enlightenment and psychological maturity is to be able to value yourself without any reference to external abilities. That is to say, to become at peace within yourself irrespective of whether you are rich or powerful or whatever. That is true enlightenment and true maturity. Try and develop a self worth that is not dependent upon external circumstances. I hope you are doing well.

      Hey man, thanks for sharing. It's okay to be hard on yourself, it's okay to take it easy on yourself. Your traversing through some difficult emotional terrains within yourself, getting to know yourself from the angle you can see yourself from right now.

      clearly your delusional in some ways, but we all are. Bukowski was considered less than average his whole life and 99% of us are average people. Who cares man? You think a hidden brushstroke of genius lies in some people and not others? You think a hidden brushstroke lies in us all? and why is it important, so important, that you have a brushstroke of genius? I know it's hard man. Have you ever thought about leaving genius outside and shutting the door on it? Where does your idea of genius bring you? Somewhere other than here?

      @@Lorenacol Fantastic! Excited for both. Not sure if it’s me(because I’ve watched the others so many times:)) but I definitely noticed some frames used in previous videos. If I’m right, Perhaps avoid that? To reduce “repetitiveness”. I’m by no means qualified. Just an observation.
