Appreciate it Max :) yea that's an interesting point, I think it's like some kind of fundamental flaw where we're drawn to forbidden things, like Pandora's Box. it's like how when there's a traffic accident and everyone who drives around it turns their neck to see what happened even though in theory "no one wants to see terrible things" - I think kardashian's rise to fame is the same. And the more something is blocked off (ie. paywalled), the more people want to get in on it

I also think curiosity (even for morbid things) is the flip side of creativity, like how stubbornness is the flip side of persistence. (a negative that comes with a positive). if we're to be creative, we have to have some curiosity
