He used the word "nothingness" quite a bit. He called this time period "generation nothingness". I hate to think that he was feeling that way at the end of his life.
This is generation nothingness. They see someone fall in front of a train and they record it on camera.
They use social media to make and meet friends.
They communicate only electronically.
That's not life. That is sanitized life, life without the reality of fucking up, shit things happening or being unhappy yourself.
It's just a life you pretend to live and broadcast to people who mean nothing to you.
I'm not on facebook, twitter anything.
