I love this; I talk sometimes about how believing in cryptids is a very specific optimism that refutes Western, enlightenment objectivity and prioritizes believing communities about their own realities— I’ve never seen Bigfoot, but if my neighbors believe in Bigfoot I can at least honor their experience/knowledge by believing in the possibility of Bigfoot. And why not? The world isn’t hurt, and maybe is even better/more earnest because I believe the Loch Ness monster could be out there

i guess this is like a positive spin to the nihilist's "there is no truth"
Kurt Vonnegut has this thing in his books Sirens of Titan called a “chronosynclastic infundibulum“ which is basically that all truths converge at a point and I love that

Then I need to believe that the earth is both flat and round? Maybe it depends on the day of the week... 🤔
