A very interesting philosophy, Graham, And one I have never contemplated, so, I will have to spend some time thinking about.

Yes. It arose when I started to read how many media organisations are now leaving Twitter. I was never on Twitter, so I didn't leave; but they are leaving. People sometimes leave the Endless Chain, but mostly people just observe it, without participating or leaving. Passivity.

It struck me that that's not an option for much of the rest of life. The state draws us in and does its best not to let us slip into passivity. You can sit a hand of canasta out. But you can't sit a hand of life out.

True, and sitting on the sidelines, sucks. Like you, I've never been on twitter so I could not care less ab0ut the fate of X, except that I despise elon musk so I'd love to see him fail. Like trump he's all brag and no substance he and his little brother invested in Tesla, big wow.

As for you, I consider, one of the more thoughtful, stable and intelligent people I know. Keep the Endless Chain going.
