I find that art is an effective counter to nihilism, and I do enjoy the irony of liking Dadaist and Surrealist art.

When nothing you do matters, everything you choose to do anyway is art. So try not to make ugly art.

Is that a quote from someone else? I love it and want to properly attribute it when sharing.

No. That's me. Been working on it for a while to make it more quoteworthy. It's my "Well, actually, not all nihilists..." quote.
