HAPPY HOLLOWEEN (I’VE DECIDED TO

happy holloween (i’ve decided to just update random on any day of the weekend, instead of consistently doing it on mondays)

troubling idea: what if you are lost in a desert and all you can see in every direction is sand, and you come across what you percieve as a massive endless wall. it seems to be infinitely tall and infinitely wide, but you think to yourself, “maybe there’s a break in the wall somewhere, or a cave, or some kind of passage way that might lead to the other side of the wall.” you spend your life walking along the wall, looking for some kind of opening, and after decades (there’s these little weeds that you can eat and stay alive with. yeah. weeds.) of searching, you die without ever finding an opening. but that wall was actually a tree, a massive tree, that went up so far you couldn’t see the top and was so wide that it appeared flat like a wall. you would have spent your life walking around and around the tree, when you could have continued on the path you had originally been on if you had just gone halfway around the tree and then continued on.
