Do it as a cope for feeling an irrational fear of death!

A shadow not so dark.

Yes. Learn that you will grow old, and soon you will be just a bystander, and being an elder bystander is the final result for 99% of the population unless you are a Rockfeller or some big name like that.

With that in mind, do not take life so seriously. There are up and downs, no matter what you do or how good you are living, or how bad it's right now.

On top of that. You don't have to accept absurd, you just have to acknowledge it.

But I want to understand it, not just comment on it's irony.

 All you need to understand is that the absurd is only considered absurd bc we've also constructed other systems like logic. If we as a species were unable to use reason and construct logical paradigms, we also wouldn't be able to recognize the absurd. The absurd is often used to contrast and highlight the rational, and what's considered 'proper.'

Consider the lobster. Does it even know that it's the mascot used by an addict to preach Jungian life lessons to incels to get them to clean their rooms ?

And what would the lobster say if it knew it were being exploited so?

have you considered it is your attachment to your human consciousness filter, and human logic and current human mainstream scientific findings that has you annoyed by how much you do not understand in the first place?

 

Perhaps from a higher perspective, life wouldn't seem so annoyingly absurd

That would involve letting go of most the current beliefs you hold so near and dear though
