>In Turin, at the beginning of his madness, Nietzsche would rush to his mirror, look at himself, turn away, look again. In the train that was taking him to Basel, the one thing he always asked for was a mirror. He no longer knew who he was, kept looking for himself, and this man, so eager to protect his identity, so thirsty for himself, had no instrument at hand but the clumsiest, the most lamentable of expedients.

E. M. Cioran died on June 20, 1995. In a sense, however, he had already left before he died. For the last several years he had suffered from Alzheimer’s and had been interned at the Broca Hospital in Paris. Fearing precisely such an ending, he had planned to commit suicide. Cioran and his longtime partner, Simone Boué, were to die together, like the Koestlers. But the disease was faster, the plan failed, and Cioran had to die the most humiliating of deaths, one that took several years to do its work [...] His fabulous sense of humor apparently he lost last. One day a passerby asked him in the street, “Are you Cioran by any chance?” His answer was: “I used to be.” But the signs became too many and too serious: Cioran started to forget at such an alarming rate that he had to be interned. Eventually, the words failed him: one of the finest writers of his time, Cioran could no longer name the most basic things. Then it was the mind’s turn. In the end he forgot who he was altogether

Nietzsche did not.
Zarathustra won.
Cioran, obviously, succumbed also.
Jung wins the day.

It’s already increasingly being demonstrated but it’s gonna turn out more and more true that poor sleep is what causes Alzheimer’s. Our kids are gonna view sleeping poorly the way we see smoking cigarettes now and boomers who brag about only sleeping 4 hours a day to get their career are digging their own grave.

8 hours of sleep is a meme. artificial light destroys the natural circadian rhythm. humans are supposed to sleep in shifts, waking up a couple times during the night to fuck and whatnot. boomers ruined this with their "lightbulbs" which are really evilbulbs

Because they're arrogant posers and cringey fools in denial of their faith. Its sad really. Notice that Derrida is the worst . He was in denial of his righteous place in the "kingdom of priests and a holy nation" (exodus 19:6).
