Why did he do it bros? ;_;

Read Good Old Neon, it's all there.

who cares if we still have this guy?

He got tired of being forced to ghost write lesser works to be published under the "Pynchon" name. Bloom likely deduced this as well when he savaged Vineland as a shitty work.

I was disappointed after reading The Pale King it gave extremely little clue into this side of him. I read Good Old Neon too but it too didn't tell me what it was he found so unendurable about life. It described his self loathing sure but in such an analytic and bored way that it didn't seem convincing to me to be the seed of violence.

I have a history of depression myself so its not a matter of lack of ability to empathise it just seems to me that his work lacked such a daunting side of him. Perhaps that fact alone says more than anything else we have available.

Not enough audience pussy

He was empty inside, not sad.

Failure to raise a family. He wanted to be a father and failed.

He didn't die. He ascended

I read he thought he had failed as a writer and never would live up to infinite jest again. He had severe depression and went off his meds he's been taking for like 20 years. Was okay for a bit but then got super depressed again. I guess he was tired of the never ending rollercoaster and how painful the lows were. Who knows bros.

Why did Robin Williams do it? Why did Kirk Cobain do it? We don't know what it was like to be them.
