RE: Oh word?
sorry, yes, I was definitely hinting on the mecurial... I guess, my perception is that we all contribute to the corporate manufactured pseudo-narcissism. because most people lead mundane lives, wrapped in routine and problems... and their "online life" is a kind of way to veil the negative and boring, and only put their best foot forward... of course this leads to a need for approval... so i guess, i'm just content that its part of human condition... not expecting anything to change, but rather it will get even more chaotic. so no point in resisting... that's my pessimistic view. As far as words go I was just trying to play with words... not my best attempt :)
Ok gotcha, no worries. I agree with pretty much everything you said, and am actually perfectly content with the way things are too, though I certainly disagree about there being no point in resisting. Resistence's value rests not in victory but in further defining, in marble tableu that which it resists, and in turn that which resists defining the resistence.
or somthin
Also I just realized this could b interpreted as some wet scoff wrought from weighted upper lip, like I'm calling people sheeple or whatever.
Nah in that case it's the exact opposite, if someone works middle management, filmmaker thing didnt turn out, and is just bein a dude working a normal job, with as normal wife, and normal kid and is content just bein a dude power to him. Living in Canada as a white dude my quality of life is pretty much top tier, and if the #Illumunati (reel cast) exists honestly I think they deserve some respect, they're doing a pretty good job. Like how many times can TVs get significantly better?
I bitch of the death of authenticity, not others not conforming to my authenticity.
I actually think that resistance is an important part of progress... there has to be a mechanism that prevents it from pouring all in at once... not just on the side of technology but also how its changing the social discord. Resistance makes progress come at a pace that allows the less fortunate to keep up... so i concede :)
I'll be honest: I was running on my fume's fumes when we had this exchange, I have no idea what point I was trying to make lmao
So instead of conceding let's just say we're both winners. Or both losers. Your preference!
it doesn't matter, cake for everyone! :)
