Thinker
Thinking of this in the shower, what does the modern philosopher lack? What can they achieve in the modern world run by money and greed and somehow love. I’m sure the philosophers of let’s say Rome and Greece era heads. They must’ve thought that same thing; what the fuck can they come up with to help and they came up short handed I’m sure. If a -cles comes to our realm of smart phones what the fuck do you think they’d be doing all day? Watching goddamn YouTube shorts and TikToks and motherfucker’s in his undies with Cheetos what’s he ponderin’ for? What?! Nothing! Absolutely no reason in his head just watching and be amazed at the love and idiocy world wide.
I love being reminded that I’m taking life for granted because I don’t feel fulfilled. At least we’re here and connected but not fully. Maybe that’s the goal, connect us all and grow together. That’d be neato.

I feel as if I’m lying to myself, the moments I ponder on what a thinker is I’m not sure my process is aligned with a problem solver. When I think of something to DO I just plan it out by vividly imagining what it’s going to look like, and then I make the first step and generally fall into the pits of disappointment. However, I expect the pitfalls and just roll with the punches reality sought to bring into my sight. So really I feel like I’m a bumbling idiot that just stares at the wall a little too long sometimes. I’d like to imagine I’ve the mindset of yonder and just philosophers, but am I just an idiot too? Is that lofty assumption even sought for, looked fondly as and treated well in the modern era? I see the memes and the jokes on the subject and it’s widely differing and hilarious.
I’d like to imagine the thought seekers and undiagnosed DID patients in the world are out there swimming, freely, they’ll have wings and be in the clouds or something. Like a free range pasture. For thick headed, self depreciating, dummyheads. So I’ll be gladly forwarding my resume.
