In response to Liz saying to me 'yay, you're alive!' People haven't heard from me since last week, when I went into hermit-ing.
I'm alive but also dead...
The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle applied to Life at this specific point in time (I've most likely screwed this up somewhere):
If you take the time to confirm that I'm alive to a specific extent, you've just perturbed my life and screwed it up somehow that that you can't be sure that I'm alive to that specific extent any longer. Worst case, I might be dead...
Conversely, if you take the time to confirm that I'm dead to a specific extent, you've just perturbed the system that is my 'deadness' and you can't be sure how dead I am.
A physicist's solution is to derive some shit that means absolutely nothing to 99.9% of the world.
Bevan's solution is a pitcher of beer.
Fuck this shit (quantum mechanics), I hope I NEVER have to see it again!
