I don't think I have it in me to be social before 9 am today, no matter how much I wanted to go to this morning's party yesterday.

I can leave the party whenever I want, and it's in my neighborhood. I should go, then decide whether I want to stay, instead of just refusing now, right?

@jason get in touch with your inner misanthrope

@jason
We as individuals cease to be ourselves when we see ourselves only as an actor performing for others outside of ourselves. When we live as though our existence can only derive meaning from the praise and condemnation of our neighbors, we live only as a spectacle and possess no internal life except as being possessed by others - by the Other - even when the Other is not present.
