the scale of biggest reconsider
trajectory’s looping trail
the consequenceless intermitter
a plane that fails to eat its tail
What is the last point of changing one’s mind without suffering from any major consequences? How far can taking big decisions go without really taking them? Circling endlessly over an issue, constantly deciding and re-deciding on taking action or taking a stand; there is no harm done until the outcomes are vague. Buffering in the perpetual wait for something to happen, yet nothing unpredictable comes out of looping actions. As long as there is no urgency to arrive, there is also no need to figure out a destination. Postponing is seemingly the safest mindset to be in, as although nothing succeeds, nothing also fails.
