Nietzsche, New Year's Resolutions, and Night Snakes

Existence is meaningless.

This core belief of nihilism, the thought-child of Nietzsche, at first appears depressing. It appears depressing because it is. Believing that life is meaningless can, for quite obvious reasons, cause feelings of depression and despair. After all, if nothing has meaning, what is the point of doing anything?

However, once you have successfully detached yourself from anything connecting you to the world or society, life becomes so much easier. You no longer must care about the thoughts or feelings of others. Instead, every decision you make doesn't matter, so why not live life to the fullest? Take a risk, try something new, whisper sweetly to a night snake (more on that in a moment).

In this post I thought to give you some New year's resolutions to give your life meaning, on your quest to living a life void of meaning.

"Do something every day that scares you"

I'm not talking about facing normie fears like spiders or the dark, you absolute coward. Take bold risks like liquidizing all your assets, selling your house for half the price you bought it, quitting your job to go live in the woods and buying stocks you know will be worth nothing in 6 months. Make bold and brash economic decisions because nothing matters, and that includes money. It's all just paper anyway!

"Appreciate the beauty in life"

Take some time every day to appreciate the beauty around you. After all, if nothing matters, there's no harm in staring out your classroom window for hours at a time observing people ditching class outside, because in the long run Nothing Matters! The world is absurd, and you should be soaking it in as frequently as possible.

"Night Snakes"

Need I say more? This photograph of a beautiful desert night snake already makes me want to shed my skin and slither into the nearest forest to live as a hermit for the rest of my life! Get off the grid, get in the moment, and get rid of any possible thing that adds meaning to your life. 

I hope this was sufficiently inspiring, wannabe Nihilists! 
Peace, love, careless (snake) whispers,
-MAD

Top 10 Coffee Snakes

Mmmmmmmmmmmm........... coffee. It's warm, it's a drug, and it goes sploosh in your stomach. But this post isn't about coffee, it's about snakes. In my post "Top 10 Kinds of Snakes," I ranked the genus Ninia as #1. Since there are 10 species in the genus Ninia, I thought today I would rank them. Before we get started, let's talk about Ninia snakes all together: they are native to Mexico, Central America, and the northern part of South America. They are commonly referred to as coffee snakes, hence the name of this post. 10. Ninia franciscoi It breaks my heart to rank any kind of coffee snake last, but seeing as I couldn't find any pictures of this species, I have to rank them here. Time to go into my mud hut and cry for seventeen days! 9. Ninia celata I couldn't find a better picture, sorry. But it's still beautiful. 8. Ninia atrata Also called Hallowell's coffee snake. It's wearing a red choker, which is SO 2006, but ...
