why did he do it?
>>25630229For the attention, I guess...
>>25630229Please do “infinite Hess” and it’s Dfw and rudolf Hess thumbs up together in front of Auschwitz

>>25630229His “sincerity” thing was pure charlatanry. I’d start there.
It was just a way to get more sex with silly women. He married one of these women and grew resentful, who knows why, and killed himself as a brilliant career move

>>25630229Depression sucks but I think if you want to intellectualize it, in my opinion he couldn't deal with the gap of language that lacan lays out in the graph of desire. Life is inherently pointless, and he couldn't form a fantasy that gives him enough distance to deal with this. Infinite jest is about this.
