I can’t seem to make myself care about anything to the right or left of the present.
Isaac Marion
Sometimes it's a struggle to live in the moment.
Isaac Marion
Soft flesh is eaten by hard teeth.
Isaac Marion
I want life and in all its stupid sticky rawness.

What's the point of trying to fix a world we're so briefly in?
Isaac Marion
The kind of stuff I usually read is a bit more on the literary side, like books that I think are influential in the sense that they're doing pulpy subject matter in a refined way. Like 'The Road' by Cormac McCarthy, I loved that book.
Isaac Marion
...thinking all this maximalism would somehow generate happiness?
Isaac Marion
Once again the absurdity of my inner thoughts overwhelms me, and I want to crawl out of my skin, escape my ugly, awkward flesh and be a skeleton, naked and anonymous.

It's more eerie to be alone in a city that's lit up and functioning than one that's a tomb. If everything were silent, one could almost pretend to be in nature. A forest. A meadow. Crickets and birdsong. But the corpse of civilization is as restless as the creatures that now roam the graveyards.
Isaac Marion
One mistake, one brief lapse of my new found judgement-that's all it took to unravel everything. What a massive responsibility, being a moral creature.
Isaac Marion
You can order yourself to treasure a moment, to cling tight to a feeling and never let it fade, but it's your brain, that three-pound lump of hamburger, that makes the final call.
Isaac Marion
It's rare that I read more than two or three books by any one author, usually only one.
Isaac Marion
Why is it beautiful that humanity keeps coming back? So does herpes.
Isaac Marion
A month ago there was nothing on Earth I missed, enjoyed, or longed for. I knew I could lose everything and not feel anything, and I rested easy in that knowledge. But I'm growing tired of easy things.
Isaac Marion
I want to change my punctuation. I long for exclamation marks, but I'm drowning in ellipses.
Isaac Marion
Here it comes. My inevitable death, ignoring me all those years when I wished for it daily, arriving only after I've decided I want to live forever.
Isaac Marion
...wanting change is step one, but step two is taking it.
Isaac Marion
There’s not really such thing as ‘good’ or ‘bad’ people, there’s just like…humanity. And it gets broken sometimes.
Isaac Marion
It's hard to take your life so seriously when you can see it all at once.
