    I feel like we’re in a movie where we are all bickering for petty reasons (namely wars and political polarisation), while in the background-- away from our sight and out of mind-- an abstract, cosmic horror is progressively happening. Preparing to kill us all.

        I watched Don’t Look Up long ago. But in our real life case, I imagine somehow a far more sinister yet indescribable horrific dark entity conspiring to kill humanity.

        I haven’t even read any of Lovecraft’s work, and yet here I am imagining an indescribable horror lol.

        I think now that the real horror is humanity committing a slow collective suicide. We’re all trapped by our own ego that we neglect the greater problem.
