Pliney the Elder's body was identified fairly recently. He died trying to rescue people from Vesuvius. He died on the beach with a jug of water beside him. I am affected. Betting that 99.9% of the Shades of Rome are with me on that.

I share a bit of this ivory tower affection myself, but 99.9% of others on Twitter do not. Most Romans would have been more moved by the death of their 2nd cousin than by the death of a chariot race star. Not true for most today reflecting the unealthy dominance of mass media.

To put it into perspective, roughly 150,000 people die each day across the globe and 99.9999% of the people don't even know them; let alone think about them!

Even if it's musicians or artists I really enjoy, I'd never shed a tear for anyone but own family or close friends. Anyone clamoring for attention for their opinion on how a random celebrities death ruined their day, is completely meaningless.
