    People have been arguing about that since the invention of language.

    Some think it was always here, and just constantly repeats itself ad infinitum. Others are convinced that it was all made by a single guy, perhaps as a school project. More recently, people who are into intellectual aesthetics have been saying it’s all a simulation, kind of like a video game.

    But nobody knows, and that’s beautiful. I personally think it’s all just a big sephora commercial and we’re all actors in it.

      I believe that it’s all random, like choosing a blush at Sephora, and we’re just trying to put sense in it because we’re biologically constrained to do that. But maybe there’s a plan and my part in it is to believe that the plan doesn’t exist.
