I’m not really a fan of Stoicism, but I haven’t really given it a fair chance, so I decided to download Meditations by Marcus Aurelius and Seneca’s Letters on Ethics. I have a tendency to cherry pick quotes for inspiration though, so I looked up some from Seneca.

The Personal Trauma Behind “Nothing Breaks Like a Heart” by Mark Ronson Ft. Miley Cyrus
Everybody Hurts
Ronson and Cyrus filmed the music video for “Nothing Breaks Like a Heart” in Kyiv, Ukraine. There’s a breaking news report on TV where the chyron reads “Miley’s Wild Ride” as Cyrus is chased in her car by law enforcement.
Key scenes in the video include shots on the New Darnytski Bridge, which crosses the Dnieper River. Cyrus’s car also drives through a strip club as well as a shooting range with children inside firing guns.
The video speaks to the casual violence that consumes the news and the continued tragedy of school shootings in America.
Cyrus told British TV host Graham Norton, “Mark was very trusting about my ideas. It’s all about what is heartbreaking to us in society every single day—waking up to the news of violence, judgment, and hypocrisy.” She continued, “It’s about a deeper heartbreak than losing love in a romance or relationship.”
She wanted to focus on the things that break “us apart every single day.”

The capitalist will say (and do) anything that justifies the endless accumulation of profit. To this end, the emphasis of individualism is vital – as it is through this loss of collective identity that humanity learns to routinely brutalise its own existence and being. Inflicting pain and harvesting gain is the only permitted exchange which locks out all other modes of possible interaction. Love becomes a limited commodity which can be bought for a short time period before the clock runs out and its flow dries up.

Baptism Beneath the Sea
Boats explode in the Pacific Ocean, highlighting the troubling trend of sharing violence on social media. It critiques our indifference to loss of life based on perceived value, questions the morality of using religion to justify violence, and emphasizes that ignorance of guilt does not absolve responsibility.
