Today I realized that I struggle with treating all information like it's important
I try to encompass everything, all the time, and it renders it all meaningless
It makes me look smart insofar it's a mark of intelligance to accumulate knowledge
But it makes me look stupid insofar it's a mark of intelligence to wield knowledge
It makes me *feel* stupid. But I can't stop. I have this intense self loathing that I don't know how to live. I see all kinds of idiocy around me, but they read like happy fools. And wiser insofar that happiness is an indicator of intelligence.
I am a fool, and I am aware of it. I choose it.
