Writing about writing about writing gets boring
At freewriting. The idea is to freewrite.
Torrent of thoughts. If I allow myself to wonder, then I'll never finish to say what I've started.
Don't quote me on this, I'm probably very wrong but its an useful model. Modernism basically stretches and breaks models and definitions until you have a rock with googly eyes and they you say "see, peak writing". It is.
Postmodernism comes after playing with shapes and such for so long that you understand that it doesn't really matter. Its all show. A kind of cynicism comes. Sure, a rock is a story, I don't care, its the same as Tolkien, an espectable, smoke and mirrors to give the illusion of emotion, but it isn't. Its all actors. Stories that acknowledge that their own actors are playing a character come. Irony comes too. A gentle interpretation could be done; the old illusion is dead, we're out of our element, what am I supposed to do here?
Commentary upon commentary. Comment can comment on itself forever. Its so easy to write about writing, and then write about how writing about writing is good, and then how believing that is actually a bad thing, and then how this is different than actually writing, and so on and so on. A circle of mirrors where nothing leaves.
Its so so easy to write about writing. It gets boring quickly. You MUST write something. And avoid writing about it. And then writing about that writing.
I kind of hate popularity scores, not because they're not useful - they're useful and fun, but in how they reflect popular topics and discussion. Post X becomes popular, then comes RE:X, then Y begins as a kind of answer to X but instead as inspiration, then Z like Y but more like a return to X and so on. IF the subject of X is popular, then subject X will search a way to stay relevant even after Post X is forgotten. Nothing new advances in RE:X Y Z RE:XYZ and so on because they're not moving forward, they're all circling the X that Post X was talking about, it will just come again as Post A as the same X packaged differently and it all goes in circles because X is not moving. This seems to just happen in pure popularity scores, in social media the algorithm moves on because capital forces keep trying to shape consumer behavior; difference between the devil in the details and actually the devil from the Bible.
I don't know. I'm rambling. The alarm beep sounded, I'm supposed to stop writing. I know this. There's a very clear difference between writing about writing and putting a full stop there, and writing about writing and then writing about writing about writing and so on and so forth; you'll get this kind of posts. Do you like these kinds of posts? You don't need me, you're perfectly capable of doing your own slop.
