spider

△ 131|Spider

When I got up to go to the toilet at dawn, I vaguely remembered that on the window outside the toilet, there was a spider the size of a thumb-nail. It was enjoying the joy of harvest on the already woven spider web. At that time, it was wrapping a new Insects on the Internet.

I’m not sure if I really saw this spider. After all, it’s 50 stories high. How did it climb here? After getting up just now, I looked again and again, the spider was no longer there, but a few mayfly wings were still stuck on the spider web, and I was convinced that there really was a spider here.

Why does it have to be on such a high floor, struggling to form a spider web in the high-altitude wind, this spider must have its answer, but for human beings, to answer this topic, we can come from a variety of self-righteous angles To understand – survival instinct, natural selection, or a slightly Zen reading.

I can probably guess a possibility without sentimentality-because of the epidemic, now is the off-season for tourism, and there are not many people staying in the hotel where I am. And the toilet lights in our room were not turned off all night, and this window in the whole building might be the existence of a lighthouse in the night sky, which can become a trap for many flying insects to be deceived, so the spider built a web here to hunt. Indeed, overnight, the people who will step into the trap here are those mayflies that are born to the light. These prey should be the few that rise by the wind. Here they think they have found the Garden of Eden for mating, but they did not expect Step into Satan’s trap.

Not long after, the spider’s mission was completed, it had left the cobweb, and I began to imagine how it left, climbed down 50 floors, or jumped and pulled out a filament, Give your next destiny to the gust of high-rise buildings, and start its new life wherever it floats.

When I was a child, I always had many wonderful conjectures. For example, when I saw a puddle after rain, I thought that this might be a lake seen by humans in the eyes of ants, and the flowing water of a ditch might be a lake to ants. The rivers in the eyes of human beings can be deduced like this, the lakes that humans see are vast oceans to ants, and what the vast oceans that humans see are to ants – because their proportions are calculated according to this wonderful conversion In this way, it becomes a concept of the world.

But I quickly denied myself, the so-called world of rivers, lakes and oceans, these definitions are only defined by humans according to certain rules, and these definitions may not exist in the world of ants at all, for them, water is just a kind of concept, which does not need to be defined.

So because of this question, it has plagued me for most of my childhood and school days, and even for a long time I wondered if there was something wrong with my brain, why would I discuss these meaningless issues – not being defined by Before we define it, how do we define a thing.

Why did man become the definition of man, and woman became the definition of woman, if people named masculine humans with “woman” in the first place, should I be called “woman” – or who He is the first person to propose this concept. Why does he have to use “man” to define a man?

It is not only meaningless to tangle on such a problem, it will also be regarded as a nerve, and it may even cause the internal paradox of the brain to shut down. So I stopped forcing myself to figure out these unanswered questions. At least I had to convince myself that in this modern society, philosophers are no longer needed. Those defined things have been completed in ancient times, as long as these established The definition can be used to operate life.

Biologists will help us explain why spiders tie their webs in a 50-story building. People do not need to use complex philosophical logic to define the meaning of why spider webs exist on 50-story buildings. Of course, it doesn’t matter if someone insists on interpreting such biological phenomena with Zen, because most of the so-called Zen is a wonderful game of self-deception, and how to define and define it is controlled by people’s subjective—— It is an ability to see the rules and mysteries of the operation of the whole world from the scattered mayfly wings on a cobweb—whether it is nonsense or someone who has mastered the mysteries of numerology, because these are existences that cannot be defined, so these things It is the believers who give the definition of their existence.

Of course, the fun of definition is far more than that everyone has their own definition subjectively, and there are classes who destroy and redefine a given definition. It’s like suddenly one day, they feel that the word “man” is full of patriarchal color and should not be called a man. Next, they need to change the word to name “man”, such as “slut”, and then force everyone to have to. Accept the word “slut” without allowing people to bring up “man” again.

I have a very strong feeling that since “disappeared” was forcibly changed to “lost contact”, the Chinese state media began to deviate in the direction of a “forced redefinition” of self-deception. In this set of self-deceiving logic, they think it is based on the logic of the people, because most people see “missing” and associate bad results, so they change it to “lost connection”, which makes people feel that there is still There is a glimmer of hope that this society will not fall into dire straits (because after all, “missing” in foreign countries does not need to be changed to “missing contact”, because that is the tragedy they should bear). But in fact, “missing” and “disconnected” are indeed very different in their original definitions, but in this game of self-deception, they are essentially the same existence, just good and bad.

And this “redefinition” method became more and more intense in the later official media. Some words became banned words, and then a new definition was used to cover these “spells” that are not allowed to be repeated, but in essence they are still in the express the same definition. Especially in the past two years of the epidemic, their ability to create words and “re-definition” has become more and more exaggerated. The definition that was still mentioned in the draft a month ago, they kept silent a month later. In order to cover up the existence of the original “spell”, they began to learn to invent new “definitions”, like philosophers in ancient times, they sensed the rules of heaven and earth, and then wrote down the definition of why a man is a “man” Conclusion – But modern “philosophers” are different. What they perceive is not the rules, but the means of treating people like pigs, using means to redefine and create more “definitions” that fool themselves into smiling faces.

Homophony can irritate them; glyph combinations can make them terrified; even an in-game poster, a food that might be “overly reminiscent” has to be replaced. We can never imagine who their next suspect will be, should they renew the family names, re-arrange the pedantic and outdated order, and put God first and serve the apostles—not necessarily, they will even wipe them out. The existence of “Hundred Family Surnames” is because there are too many existences that should not be defined.

When this “redefinition” self-deception will end, no one can tell. Sooner or later, they will cover the definition to any place, as long as those “definitions” that are prone to reverie, innuendo, and accusations must be “redefined” again, and then they will create more self-deception. words, forcing everyone not to say the previous “spell” again.

Maybe one day, the name “spider” will also become a banned word.
