It’s a thing. try to stop your message being interpreted differently from how you meant it. One of many determinisms that are a thing, unless they are not.
Determinism Types & Examples | What is Determinism? - Video & Lesson Transcript | Study.com
The idea that things are or aren’t deterministic in texts is wrong. Everything is subject to some, in differing amounts. That’s how it works. ie: “There is one main message that the author is trying to teach the children that are watching and there is no room for question the points that the author is bringing forward. In complex television like The Soprano’s, there is room for interpretation….”
Chapter 6: Interpreting and Decoding Mass Media Texts
Within this chapter Interpreting and Decoding Mass Media Texts, I will cover the concept of semiotics, Ideological State Apparatuses, Stuart Hall’s Encoding/Decoding, Reception Theory and how they …

If another year of shutdowns, social restrictions, health risks and existential dread has eroded your sense of life’s ultimate meaning and purpose, a new report by philosophers in Britain and Australia may offer a double whammy of encouragement.
That’s why those suffering grief or lack of faith need to find a point – comprehending things can be way overrated. You choose if you think there should be a point or not by virtue of your relationship with God/The Universe.
Learning to Live in Steven Weinberg’s Pointless Universe
Death just became even more scary: scientists say people are aware they’re dead because their consciousness continues to work after the body has stopped showing signs of life.
Nearly all your emotions are filtered through
Til nothing’s as good as you’d like it to be
Til all expectations are tinged with despair
In the stagnant presumption that nothing can be
As good as it was in the books
The girl who lives up to her looks
The man who provides her a dream
And the glorious way it “should” be
But forget it, it “won’t ever happen to you”
If you’re feeling down then they want you to
Up’s the direction to glorify in
Consider the fact that most of your sins
Are parts of morality that died years ago
But continue existing til the alternative’s known
They, the big ones, the T-H-E-Y
The term we all use to pass ourselves by
Are barriers of silence to the ideas we preach
Til our slogans descend into figures of speech
So don’t shout ‘fuck you!’ if you don’t like my choice
Try thinking of something that gives you a voice
Someone’s ability to lead you along
Does not make him more than a writer of songs
But if your really want to sing it
Then yeah! Sing along
But don’t think the end result is making you strong
Do what you want when you want if you can
It’s oh so much better than having it planned
If countries were run on spontaneous thought
Then maybe we’d base things on love a bit more
The feelings you get when someone you know
But had never dared speak to, comes up, says “hello”
When somehow the whole world exists in one kiss
And you long for the things
You swore you’d never miss
Gut feelings, the stomach, the head spins around
There’s so many things we don’t talk about
If I gave a lecture on the glory of sex
Instead of a lecture on political crimes
You’d get red and embarrassed and shuffle your legs
And they say that we live in spontaneous times
I’m told by ‘superiors’ we like it this way
Being told what to do in our lives day by day
Being ordered and disciplined is natural they say
And if that’s what your want you can hate me ok
I don’t expect less, it’s the thought for the day
But you’ll probably deny what you feel anyway
And even deny your own self-denial
Even deny your own self-denial
At this point I’ll stop or get bottled off stage
Or if it’s down in a book
Then you’ll rip out a page
Pure hatred is good in a frightening way
It can help you let out what you’re dying to say
Express what’s inside in a momentary rage
From normal suppression it makes a good change
But pure love or anger should not be the factors
That tell us apart from the everyday actors
Who live out the roles they were given to play
And suppress all their feeling and try not to say
That they love it! It’s beautiful! It tears them apart!
Or they hate it! It’s a bastard!
They don’t know where to start
Try opening your mind and see what falls out
It’s really amazing if you don’t think about it
Just go instinctive spontaneity drive
It’s reality stop number 35
Where they’re queuing for miles to watch you survive
On the freedom of conscience that keeps you alive
Keeps you alive
It keeps me alive!
There’s not many people who like the idea
Of a life without freedom but they all live in fear
Of losing the minute amount that they’ve got
They say that they know who they are
But they’re not
They’re all individuals under the skin
‘Born losers’ were told that no one can win
‘Born winners’ created by money, not skill
This structure is sick, it’s even making me ill
It rubs off on me, you can tell by these songs
But I went the other way, I think it’s wrong
Of fuck it’s all too much, it’s all out of touch
You’re telling me, I can hear you you see
I can see you can hear but you cannot believe
Cos your concept of life lies in envy and greed
But just cos you want something don’t mean your need
If you can hear and be conscious the rest comes for free
To bring it to basics this life is a dream
And when you wake up you will see what I mean
Now slag this song! Go on, tell me I’m wrong
Or tell me I’m right, whatever you like
But please don’t take so long
Or all the spontaneous thoughts will be gone
All the spontaneous thoughts will be gone
All the spontaneous thoughts will be dead and gone
One of the things that I love about being Catholic is that conversion is not supposed to be an instantaneous “getting saved” event. It’s not that we instantly become perfect in God’s eyes. We do, in fact, instantly become a son or daughter in Father’s eyes, but He still sees us as we are ... Read more
Cliches. The world is full of them. There’s plenty of fish in the sea. All’s well that ends well. Every cloud has a silver lining. And my personal favourite; time heals all wounds. Just…
Time probably goes in more than 1 direction, but YOU only flow through it in one direction. Best to shave off all the assumptions, especially when maths has it that things work just as well, backwards.
“A soldier once told me: “It is much easier to kill someone you have never met, from distance. When you look through the scope, you just see a red dot, not a human.” The less you know about them, the easier to fear them, and to hate them.”
The politics of fear: How it manipulates us to tribalism
Fear, a psychiatrist writes, has roots deep within the human psyche, and demagogues have long exploited the emotion. In today's world, it's important to know the dangers of that exploitation.
Agreed, but…. (ahem) The FBI website says Cancers are the most dangerous criminals of all of the zodiac signs, followed by Tauruses. Sagittarius comes third followed by Aries. Capricorn, Virgo, Libra, Pisces, Scorpio, Leo, Aquarius and Gemini are last in the list since their crimes are rarely associated with violence, but with frauds and scams.”

Nilhism is Pointless (too)
Your Point?

And Zounds? Who heals God’s wounds?
It isn’t time that heals wounds…
BS, YOU JUST GET USED TO IT.
Time probably goes in more than 1 direction, but YOU only flow through it in one direction. Best to shave off all the assumptions, especially when maths has it that things work just as well, backwards.
Why time only flows in one direction… Cox on entropy.
Fear can be the one thing…
