        "content_html": "<p><a href=\"https://www.welcometohellworld.com\">Luke O&rsquo;Neil</a> has a way of putting his finger right on that thing about music or literature or whatever that&rsquo;s so hard to pin down for so many of us. This is something I&rsquo;ve been thinking about a lot as I&rsquo;ve been back into reading so much more and have remembered again the way that the right song or album can completely turn a bad day good. From his <a href=\"https://www.welcometohellworld.com/a-spiritually-and-culturally-dead-future-devoid-of-art-and-meaning/\">newsletter</a> today:</p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>This probably applies to all of you &ndash; people in possession of human souls who have at least on occasion felt the divine in a work of art &ndash; but everything I write myself and everything I love to read or listen to or watch has one bedrock foundation to it which is this:</p>\n<p>Oh my god I am alive right now and you are alive right now and someday we will not be but for the duration of this we are both stupidly and beautifully alive.</p>\n<p>Please bear witness to my humanity and take some small portion of it for yourself.</p>\n</blockquote>\n",
