I’m currently reading The Conspiracy Against the Human Race by Thomas Ligotti. I am currently about 1/5 of the way into it. I find his anti-natalist arguments somewhat lacking so far, but his apologies for philosophical pessimism are interesting. His metaphors about human existence, woven in with incorporating Zapffe’s The Last Messiah are worth a read; if nothing more than to challenge one’s own preconception about the preciousness of existing itself.

You can play split screen multiplayer if you go to the 2p wireless mode and make an empty room to run around in. There’ll be an annoying waiting to connect message at the very bottom though.
