today's trivialities
pretty much everybody realizes (or will recognize the saying, anyway) that selebrities are those people who are famous for being famous.
some people understand that to achieve notoriety, it is enough to look and speak the part.
even fewer people understand that the curious quality of “controversiality” is irreversible: once something is pronounced controversial it will, in time, become ever more controversial, since controversy breeds talk, and talk breeds controversy — talk is controversy. controversy is but the discoursive incarnation of entropy. entropy can only increase. for the controversial thing, the only way out of controversy (if being non-controversial is desired) is to cease being, or to be recast in another thing (or other things).
“to iterate is human; to recourse — divine”.
almost nobody seems to understand the immediate practical lesson of the above: silence is good. not caring is even better.
Not existing is better still.

this is something humans can only somewhat affect the timing of, not the probability.
if that's not a major cause for optimism, I don't know what is.

Вот так вещи существуют во взаимозависимости , не имея отдельной причины. ты только что врубился с дискурсивной стороны в буддистскую концепцию пустоты :)

я знал, что кто-нибудь не преминёт упомянуть буддизьм. :)
