"And for what? For a little bit of money.

"There's more to life than money. Don't you know that?

"There ya are. And it's a beautiful day.

"Well, I just don't understand it."
—Chief Marge Gunderson

If an account boosts your post, and that account has 0 followers, does a tree fall in the forest and hit a mime? [1]

[1] I could be mixing my aphorisms. But an actual boost I got triggered this train of thought...

A quotation from Joubert, Joseph:

«
Maxims are to the intellect what laws are to actions; they do not enlighten, but they guide and direct; and although themselves blind, are protective. They are like the clue in the labyrinth, or the compass in the night.

In the wasteland of anomie, where purpose dissolves, anomia leaves us speechless before the void, anomaly mocks our search for order, & anemoia aches for a past that never was: a quartet of ghosts haunting the ruins of meaning.

An aphorism never tells the truth - it either starves it or stuffs it to death.

There are three classes of #people: those who see. Those who see when they are shown. Those who do not see.

The Long History of a Short Form.
The aphorism, from Hippocrates to Maggie Nelson.

By Ryan Ruby via @laphamsquart

For a word that literally means definition, the aphorism is a rather indefinite genre. It bears a family resemblance to the fragment, the proverb, the maxim, the hypomnema, the epigram, the mantra, the parable, and the prose poem.

Don't blame the ordinary worker, if the people to blame for your issue are actually the elites of politicians, lawyers and the like, who create absurdly complex laws and rules.

Not every relationship is a cause and effect relationship.

I was asked about one of my old aphorisms, "we are all merely puppets stuffed with red slop in order to reproduce history and its deformities," what the deformities exactly entails.

Basically the deformities of history are the recurring manifestations of human folly, suffering & existential despair.

The best sleep comes just before you need get off the train (for others: just before the alarm clock).

COPROCENE: An epoch defined by human folly, where decisions are as beneficial as a steaming pile of dung. It’s a time so riddled with messes—both literal & figurative—that future geologists might sift through the debris to assess whether we ever cleaned up our act or simply settled into our coprophilic narcissism.

Live paycheck by paycheck,
Soon to be replaced by Ai.
