A quotation from Cicero

Those very philosophers even in the books which they write about despising glory, put their own names on the title-page. In the very act of recording their contempt for renown and notoriety, they desire to have their own names known and talked of.
 
[Ipsi illi philosophi etiam illis libellis, quos de contemnenda gloria scribunt, nomen suum inscribunt; in eo ipso in quo praedicationem nobilitatemque despiciunt, praedicari de se, ac nominari volunt.]

Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC) Roman orator, statesman, philosopher
Pro Archia Poeta [For Archia the Poet], ch. 11 / sec. 26 (62 BC) [tr. Yonge (1856)]

Not only did @Edent appear in my earholes while listening to Late Night Linux today, but heā€™s only got himself on Hackaday again, too.

We shall call him ā€œthe ubiquitous Mr Edenā€ from now on. #TUME #fame #notoriety #fortune

Watched #AustralianStory on #ABC on #BonScott from #ACDC other day, been reading bios on #JackKerouac & #NealCassady. One common feature for the three was they all wanted a simple, quiet life without #Fame or #Notoriety, a family & a home.

It seems that being famous and a celebrity is bad for your health and well being.

So, it makes u wonder why people aspire to be famous.

The Nature of #Celebrity. The examples are old - some have lost their #CelebrityStatus in public awareness, or they may have shifted categories. #DeadCelebrities can become #CulturalIcons, entering a quasi-mythic state as a #symbol, disconnected from their original significance.
New form of #DigitalMedia create spaces for #Fame & #Notoriety to evolve. #MassMedia #MediaLiteracy #SocialMedia ##CelebrityCulture #Marketing #Myth #Legend #PopCulture

Dick Smiths Fair Go SupportersDec 11, 2021

THERE ARE TWO ways to make the #etheriumScam tokens more popular.

1) Have #celebrities use them, this helps them gain #legitimacy. Expect this from memecoiner. Failng that,
2) Make jokes about them to give them #notoriety. Notoriety also #elevates the #scamToken.

GUESS WHICH METHOD they are using?
