Life as a Novel


Gottfried Wilhem Leibniz said that this world was a perfect world, because God couldn't create anything that wasn't perfect. Genocide. Pollution. Murder. Litter. Dodge Neons. Republicans. The small pebbles that collect in the heel of your sock. All these atrocities are necessary conditions to our world, irreparable and inoperable. Hence - just as any alteration to a perfect circle would damage its perfection - the above disgraces to human dignity cannot be eradicated without making the world worse than it already is.


I think this world is a rough draft. And in the final version, we'll all be edited.
