Does anyone know of any other interpretations of the myth of Sisyphus besides Camus' ?
Like if you know anything that is not explored in the mainstream narrative built around that story. Do not hesitate to post it, literally any approach to that myth.

In this, the 21st century, this will have to be renamed "Myth of Sissy-puss" and the stone replaced with all the various things snip-snip trannies have to do to maintain the façade of womanhood.
I hope you fricking die for making every thread about trannies.
Cry harder, troony. That open wound will never be a vegana.
what kind of freudian trope is this shit? most of us dislike the modern troony problem but there is a very vocal minority that feel the need to make every post about them, when it is completely irrelevant and offtopic. to me you just come across as in denial of your infatuation with trannies, the amount of times some wigger said ywnbaw to me is astounding despite my being a regular man. what happened to the long lost tradition of calling other men girls to make fun of them? why do we live in clown world where all men are assumed now to have ambitionsnof womanhood and castration and must preemptively be reassured that they will never be women despite the total abscence of any such aspiration. frick you, get aids and die, you will never be a man, you are a troony obsessed homosexual in denial.
Social media scrolling is Sisyphean. It sort of implies that we're all trapped in the underworld/hell.
True and based observation. But why'd you have to tell me? Now that I'm aware of this rock shaped like a rolly-button on my mouse, what am I supposed to do with it?
I read "Sisyphus and the Woman" by Vytaute Zilinksaite last year in the short story collection Soviet Women Writing, which I got as a print copy from my university library. To my knowledge, you cannot read it online (at least in English)
A woman visits Sisyphus, comes live in his cave and encourages him. His repeated failure to push it beyond the invisible wall leaves her more and more disappointed, but he's determined to keep trying harder the next day. There is a scene where he's giving a 110%, punching and kicking it with every fiber of his being, but he is unable to break through that wall and it rolls back down
I don't quite remember the end. Maybe he's just happy there is a meaning to his task, but I can't be sure until I read it again
And I don't know what is supposed to say about women (if anything) because I am a moronic incel
Do you have an online version of it even in another language ?
i found the whole book, you will have to make a free account to borrow it

hahahaha look at this troony loving freak! ywnbam, sissy lover!
It's a punishment by the Gods. Sysyphus was banned to Tartarus where all the dead are at. He believes that one day he will get the rock over the mountain, yet every time the rock falls and rolls down just before it reaches the top. Sysyphus tries again. One could say he is in a sort of dream state where he doesn't much question his mission, he just knows that he has a mission. He has probably forgotten why he is in Tartarus. He will keep pushing, the rock will roll down back every single time, in a loophole that will go on for millions of years. That is the punishment the Gods have gave him.
There is a similar pubishment in japanese buddhism I think, where you have to build a stairway yo heaven with body parts but demons take it down every time
This sounds awesome. I think I found the name of the text, The Tale of the Ogres’ Staircase, or The Tengu’s Peep, but I can find it anywhere online. Do you remember where you read it?
Some chud buddhist I follow on twitter mentioned it, but he's banned for now so I can't see the post.
Can't remember where I read it--Maybe 2666, or The Pale King?
What I read was a section talking about the actual myth of Sisyphus, about how he always ends up escaping. He has already escaped from hell befroe, and you could imagine that he will escape the boulder eventually too.
Where the frick did I read that? The Denial of Death, Conspiracy Against the Human Race. I cant remember.

Not really related but online dating in the year two thousand and twenty four is Sisyphean. You swipe countless times, just to get some matches. You attempt the paradoxical task of charming them over text, where you’re competing with tens if not hundreds of other men, just to get a few first dates. And those first dates always end with getting ghosted. The only way I get through it is by suspending my capacity for reason and doing it in blind faith
Roger Caillois, Le Rocher de Sisyphe
Woody Allen and Lawrence Krauss discuss the myth of Sisyphus.
