It occurs to me entropy might describe dangerously low levels of attention to a place/system, such that it just kinda slowly dis-integrates to what we metaphorically call “hell”.

I'll be there – quite possibly with that song in mind to boot.

Seemingly all day, every day.

Love that.

But as I was kind of hinting above, to me it's far more depressing in real life, where I can hardly get a word in edgewise for all the incessant yapping – not to mention being able to visually see others are thinking only about what they're going to say next – instead of, say, what I'm (thus) wasting my breath telling them. Worse yet, the very next words out of their incessant mouths tend to confirm they paid zero attention, yet hope to receive infinite.

It's just....

I'm not going to miss this fucking world at all....

I've done things that make your shortcoming(s) look pretty tame/mild. All one can do is make the most/best of here and now.

This here vim lover felt even more love when discovering the Vimium Chrome extension. (FWIW: the Vimium github site)

I occasionally try nudging my wife more that direction, mainly because she too often can't see more-thing-than-she-could-humanly-attend-to as having such potential for generating frustration/anxiety.

I suspect never because it seems one can't get elected with any more than skin-color-deep understanding anymore.
