Which is to say: tropic, tropic, tropic. </br> Leibniz in Hui’s pond: >“[E]ach portion of matter may be conceived as a garden full of plants, and as a pond full of fish. But each branch of a plant, each limb of an animal, each drop of its humours, is also such a garden or such a pond.” p. 28. (G. W. Leibniz, Monadology, §67, in Lloyd Strickland, Leibniz’s Monadology: A New Translation and Guide (Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2014), 28.) Wittgenstein and giving into entropy (note this also in [[12 Negintelligibility]]): >“All that philosophy can do is to destroy idols. And that means not creating a new one — say in the ‘absence of an idol’” (BT 413). So, philosophical problems should be eliminated, instead of being solved: “The problems are […] **dissolved like a lump of sugar in water**” (BT 421) (cited in another pond: _The Failure of Philosophical Knowledge_). %% #todo Also: https://link.springer.com/referenceworkentry/10.1007/978-3-031-04958-3_56 https://sci-hub.ru/https://doi.org/10.1017/9781316218907.006 https://files.libcom.org/files/Anti-Oedipus.pdf file:///Users/soniadejager/Downloads/Yuk%20Hui%20-%20On%20the%20Existence%20of%20Digital%20Objects-University%20of%20Minnesota%20Press%20(2016).pdf %%
