one thing that really strikes me about anti-intellectualism is that it’s just so. self-limiting and sad. like it’s a good thing to learn and i feel like we’ve forgotten it. all this information at our fingertips and people are refusing to use it for the simplest things like when they don’t understand one specific word in a text. if something is a tough read it’s a moral failing of the author and not an opportunity to build on your own personal knowledge and experiences. it doesn’t matter if you think picasso is a renaissance artist because who cares about art history anyway and besides, picasso was a creep, even though it would take a minute to look this up. like obviously there are issues with accessibility in say, access to academia, but some things are genuinely not going to take significant amounts of effort to look up and remember for future. yes it’s not a bad thing to not know something already, but a refusal to learn? come on. learning - expanding your knowledge, getting to know more about the world or humanity or art or science or anything - serves you, not some elitist academic in the sky or whatever. whether that’s just reading the first paragraph of the wikipedia page for pragmatism or taking three months to read crime and punishment, there’s a sense of achievement in the end. and yeah to some extent it’s a skill, but it’s not a difficult thing to foster and build upon, and sitting around proclaiming how you refuse to learn anything, even the most basic and simple fun facts, due to whatever the excuse of the month is is just so insular. it’s a truly wonderful and interesting and diverse world out there and we’re letting it all pass us by

“if mushrooms are the superior lifeform that really calls the shots on this earth, why haven’t they destroyed us yet?” listen to yourself. have we as humans gotten rid of every mountain on the planet just because we are smarter than big rocks? no!! because they don’t pose a threat to us. sure some people die rock climbing or skiing and that’s tragic but mountains aren’t dangerous to us as a global society. do you see where i am going with this. it’s your misplaced hubris that makes you think that humankind is worth destroying to a mushroom. we are a part of the mundane landscape on the surface. we pose no threat to the mycelian era. humble yourself

like hello. these are fucking song names. there is an entire album.

wes please tell me to shut the fuck up if this is annoying i apologize but. ‘foundations of decay’ ‘the end of all things’ ‘am i too late’ literally all of these line up with the green of new growth from a corpse theme they’ve been driving into everyone’s skulls since a week ago.
this new era is about looking at the ruins of your past and using it as fertilizer. bullets was all about anger and confusion, revenge about depression, black parade about the path towards a definite end, danger days about how changing the world requires dying; it makes perfect narrative sense that a fifth album would explore the concept of sprouting through the bones of your old body. bugs moss vermin rot decay growth you must fix your heart i am losing my mind
