I'm going to be there going, welcome. Welcome to no man's land, I'm here.

Again, there's not a permanent shift. There are still days when I see something that someone is doing and I get, goddammit, and where the fuck is that guy? That will never totally go away, but my reaction to it is now different. What I used to have was just being angry and resentful and living an enemy-centered life.

Now, I still have the initial angry and resentful reaction, but I have more options of how to process it that I'm older. And I can wink and laugh at that. Oh, you could totally go down this road. There actually is some benefits to living vengefully sometimes. Especially if you're like, I'm gonna lose 30 pounds, you motherfuckers.

Look, there have been some genuinely great things done out of vengeance. There just have been. I'm sorry. There have been great things done out of vengeance. Great art has come out of vengeance. Michelangelo's last judgment has this amazing, there's this amazing demonic figure painted with fat donkey ears and a snake around his belly.

He's in the lower right-hand corner of the painting, and he was, that was a guy, he was the Pope's Master of Ceremonies, and I cannot remember his name right now. Cesare or Cesuri? Anyway, he was tormenting Michelangelo while he was painting that, the Last Judgment, because he was a failed painter and a failed sculptor and very, very jealous of, Michelangelo.

So he's like, well, now I'm in charge of this. So I'm going to make him blah, blah, blah. And he would go back to the Pope and go, well, he's painting Jesus without a beard. And Pope's like, well, you got to go tell him, you know, and just, you know, in other words, it was his way of going, I, it's Michelangelo and I are doing this painting, even though he's a fucking loser.

So Michelangelo finally had it and he painted the guy, Biagio de Cesna?

He put him in it? They painted him as this horrifying demon, pot belly, and it's so clearly his face, donkey ears. And then he went back to the Pope and was like, he's painted me as a demon in hell. And at that point, the Pope had had enough of this. He goes, I have no jurisdiction over hell. and just basically told him, you're fucked for eternity.

Everyone's gonna see this painting forever, and you're this pot-bellied, donkey-eared demon with a snake around your belly. But again, that's a beautiful aspect of a beautiful piece of art that was absolutely done out of vengeance. I mean, Dante's Inferno is all vengeance. It's all petty revenge on people that fucked him over.

And so is Joyce's Ulysses was all settling scores with local people in Dublin.
