"Hell is other people": a timeless infinity of transient virtual beings screaming, imprisoned, in un-choreographed inharmonious unison ... until one breaks loose. A mirror to humanity.
We're not in FreeBSD jails anymore, Toto.
I'm a hell is other people person at my core.
But I'm trying to be a "greatness is other people" (Pantheon) person.
A Hindu at heart! On a more grounded note, YIL terrestrial root terra comes from Proto Indo European as evidenced in Sanskrit तृषा (tṛ́ṣā).
Oh boy, Sanskrit always sends me down the rabbithole of re-reading Snow Crash, which reinforced the concept of the (digital) "avatar" अवतार.
