the impractical gang

want to join? our mantra will be "lofty dreams and distraction." we'll hold monthly meetings where members boast the epiphanies yielded from inner quests. after the unanimous horrah adjourning the meeting, we'll consume our nightly food and drink together, commending each other on finding meaning in our lives. Of course, during the communal congratulations, we realize that in order to keep consuming our nightly food and drink, we have to succumb to the daily machine that grinds us down into matter indistinguishable from each other. *sigh*

feeling downtrodden.
