Here I am. Here I remain.
Oscar Isaac as Duke Leto Atreides in Dune (2021, dir. Denis Villeneuve)
So, what has happened to the world? That normal now passes as excellence? When did we lower our standards? There seems to be no expectation to go above and beyond what one might know, or might want to know. It seems people are blissful in their own ignorance. How far have we fallen? Indeed, how far have we fallen? We are living in an environment where people are blind. What you don’t see, you don’t know. Out of sight, out of mind. So now, ignorance is the new normal! In fact, ignorance is the new excellence!

No. We begin by coveting what we see every day. Don’t you feel eyes moving over your body, Clarice? And don’t your eyes seek out the things you want?
