Everything Causes Cancer

I’m tired of hearing about this. Cigarettes cause cancer, cell phones cause cancer, microwaves, plastic bottles, apparently coffee is a carcinogen too. The sun can kill you, sex can kill you. Am I supposed to live in a bubble now? Sustain my health intravenously?

If life causes cancer, so be it. I’ll take life, thanks. I’ve always been in favor of a burn bright and die early approach. I refuse to be sidelined because the new poisonous world is too dangerous for me to live in.

Seems like we’re just gettin’ soft. What did people do before modern medicine? Without healthcare? Without a car?! They walked, thats what they did. And if some shit went down they accepted it as it came, and they invented fate to help them cope.

So don’t hide from life in your plastic bubble. Life was far more dangerous before we had all these security measures and safety nets. Count yourself as lucky. Go outside. Do something that will hurt you. Live.
