Plural of futility; multiple instances of useless, unsuccessful, or pointless efforts or things.
From futility (from Latin 'futilitas') plus standard English plural '-ies.'
The plural futilities makes clear that failure isn't singular—life contains countless futilities, which is probably why absurdist literature dwelling on this idea became so popular in the 20th century.
