you find a bit that gets you attention, you double-down on the bit, you accrete a shell of followers who are into your bit and reward you for doubling down harder, that shell attracts a second shell of haters who hate your bit and *also* reward you for doubling down

(i am, as usual, talking about myself here) the thing i tried to do from here is abandon the bit and do something else for awhile. giving it some time to cool down and reconfigure. to the extent that you can't do that you have bigger problems and could try focusing on those
