to rephrase: what the text invokes is a function of (inter alia) private situations and thus non-atomic and unreproducible

again, could the internet please note the differences between —

(a) the factual statement that a flawed creator did deliver admirable works; (b) the causal hypothesis on whether the said flaw — (x) was what made the works possible, or (y) preempts and negates the merit of the works; and (c) the moral/legal judgment on how the creator should face consequences for the flaw.

now, it’s perfectly fine to debate each point or any combination thereof, but not until the creator is taken off the artificial pedestal. The creator is, at best, the surrogate for the totality of their ambience, and their deliveries are to be assessed thereby.

random thought after a thriller — a universal, proven solution against negative feelings (fear, anger, etc.) is to decouple the mind from its current occupation and imagine witnessing yourself wavering and scowling from above, whereupon you’ll likely find that meatbag’s uneasiness absurd and comical, which fears fear and angers anger, thus Q.E.D. (love swimming b/c it’s the easiest to practice in water.)

I matter not their Censure, for it would be an Endless Trouble to me, to Answer every ones Foolish Exception; an Horse of a Noble Spirit Slights the Bawling of a Petty Cur, and so do I. I wish Men were as Harmless as most Beasts are, then surely the World would be more Quiet and Happy than it is, for then there would not be such Pride, Vanity, Ambition, Covetousness, Faction, Treachery, and Treason, as is now. https://archive.org/details/bim_early-english-books-1641-1700_ccxi-sociable-letters-_newcastle-margaret-cav_1664/page/n9/mode/2up

如今，地狱就在心中，人们都在效仿浮士德了。[…] 契约不是用血，而是通过芯片签订的。比喻意义上像浮士德，为了短期的物质便利放弃身份和隐私；情节也一字不差，飞速划过读不懂的在线合同，只渴望献出同意。以太中的某处，听到微弱的鼠标点击声，住在机器里的魔鬼竖起了犄角。https://archive.is/iiG7q
