Personnel

gollark: "we like to look at things as if it all for us, as if something is so grand about us, in truth we can only be grand if we so choose, and can properly attain it. but if we can, then what ever IT is was never for us. and thus only a blip in time, our memory and all of action erased as if it was never there, what is so special about us? nothing really." sounds pretty nihilist.
