Distraction as Art
Distraction is not just a means to an end, but an end in itself. It's a way of life. A way of saying, "Screw it, I'm not doing that." A way of embracing the void and finding meaning in the meaningless.
Take, for example, the art of watching cat videos. At first glance, it seems like a complete waste of time. But is it, really? Is it not a profound commentary on the human condition? The futility of existence? The inevitability of cute, fluffy animals making us laugh and cry?
Or, take browsing social media. Is it not a form of performance art? A way of presenting a curated version of yourself to the world? A delicate balance of curated highlight reels and desperate cries for validation?
Distraction is not just a means to avoid work, it's a way of life. A way of finding meaning in the void.
