Remilia's post-authorship ethos has exposed it to a vulnerability: our rejection of authorship is towards an elimination of authorship but bad faith actors uncommitted to the same ideal have repeatedly tried to treat it as open season to claim authorship for themselves.
Everything you do today, every decision you make every day, reverberates infinitely in the immortal soul, persisting through all your descendants—that soul inherited from all your ancestors, who all watch over you, paying spiritual earned in their life to influence fortune in yours.

The real gold and glory of our generation will be given to a newly emerging kind of person who is truly interested in change and is willing to take more risks with their career betting on technologies whose availability and utility are uncertain.
The cancelled will inherit the earth, or the decade anyway, beyond which it’s highly unlikely “cancel culture” would persist as anything more than a memory of these censorious times.
