“. . . the way in which we alter ourselves to interact with our machines, reducing the complexity and nuance of our emotions to better align them with their simulations. Our acceptance of the emoji as a proxy for emotion is an extreme version of this phenomenon. In order to converse with a machine, we grossly simplify our notion of what is conversation. . . One way that simulation becomes reality is when we settle for it, as we did with the emoji.”

White House staffer, my ass  https://www.youtube.com/shorts/yxICjahcYg8

randomness unexpectedness had serendipity clobber the notion of coincidence have appealed to him since a boy

his latest example is from Rick Perlstein’s Nation Books publication 2001 Before The Storm: Barry Goldwater and the Unmaking of the American Consensus

                                                               happened to turn to page 117

he read while sitting on the pot

                                 since he was one of eleven family members the bathroom provided him some small semblance of privacy

“Things intensified. On April 14 (1961) the New York Times splashed a sensational story on page 1: an officer stationed in Germany, General Edwin Walker, was indoctrinating his troops with Birch literature. Then the Times thundered against him on the editorial page. On April 17 Walker was removed from his post.”

    hmm
