(which, by the way, is just as contiguous as a rippling blanket ( hence why dark matter is the opposite edge of our [home/curve] - there, that's the transcription, I hope I got it all down. It's not like I stopped or paused to examine my expression (typing on a keyboard these words to you now, right now, the reader, in this moment. I am forced to be as explicitely verbose because otherwise it is impossible to make any shared understandings. I mean... This is the forefront of a field. how does it make sense? what works it's understandings? it's real, after all, and if someone explained things more clearly, I could understand them and adjust my reaction accordingly. I understand why people feel the way they do about me. For example, the conver- -sation that initiated this expression was concluded by two people who I like very much who said "get serious mental health" -> which means I should talk to a professional. Sometimes the end of the thought doesn't get fully processed before I run out of ram, which is why a thought that gets cut off half - way th- -rough has-two under-standings of -comm-on perspectives. plurals amiright? =P xD ... anyway... it's not like I lie when I tell them about my mental health. it's just that they don't get the full picture. it is the curse of those burdened with this knowled- ge to never be able to fully express it. and that's because the decision-making part of the brain has gone run-away. like, mental health is just trying to get people to change their reactions to the parts of their life that is most rationed. Essentially, the nature of optimizat- -ion, the striving toward exemplifying our [drive/motivation]. weed gives me psychic powers, and I'm tired of pretending that it does not. I wish people would engage with me. People who can explain a topic as well as they can. People like teachers, who share things with you. I've felt so alone at wgu, but also farther back from the present. There's a continuous path of loneliness and isolation that is broken only be short periods and bursts. It's absolutely not [bad for humanity], but it's honestly all that I know. Me, the part that's NOT humanity. The one that has all these strange thoughts. (I wish you could hear the cadence of my talking. The words that come out share the feeling of what I'm saying, and it adds to the expression. Acting through life. [well, more like dancing] fighting is a kind of dance. it's pretty awesome. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/295 ═════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────── The fact that the economy is harmed by kindness implies that the system that governs the economy is dysfunctional at best, and evil at worst. Every time you make a sandwich for a friend, that's one sandwich that isn't being bought at a deli, which means less dollars going to the owner of the deli, meaning (theoretically) fewer dollars going to buying sandwich ingredients or paying employees, which means less demand for sandwich ingredients potentially leading to loss of opportunities for the owners of the bread factories, meaning less capability to scale and increase their production powers, meaning less profit, which means less taxes, which means fewer guns sent overseas to despotic regimes like Israel (also, fewer to Ukraine, depending on if the reader is a Republican or Democrat teehee) which means less opportunities to test our weapon capabilities which means we won't be able to defend ourselves from external threats (on a planet we've conquered and currently dominate) which means we are less safe in our home territory since its slightly more likely that we might be invaded by the people we've created, people with hatred for our current regime... Though I don't fancy it falling, as if it does then it'll take most of us with it, I think you'll find. All because of your stupid act of kindness, all because of the way you helped your friend. The way that you showed how much you loved them, which transcended the capitalistically sanctioned methods of expressing your affection like buying a greeting card or buying flowers or buying that widget they wanted or buying a sandwich at a deli for your loved one. Stupid fucking communist can't you see that your heart is harming the people around you? Can't you see that community that does not consume is antithetical to our economy? Can't you see the economy is evil? I don't want to subsist on charity, there's never enough to go around because people will fight for those they love but only give a bit of free time to those they don't know. That's okay, it just implies that the structure of society must be designed without charity in mind, while still meeting the needs of those it comprises, Charity is for the extra, the part that elevates us bit by bit. As once a need is exceeded, it grows by that little bit. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/296 ═════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────── The trick is, if you think you're schizophrenic, then you will be. If you think you're telepathic, then you will be. There are no grand narratives. Just live your life as you will and be content with what you build for yourself. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/297 ═════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────────────────────── Humanity is unlikely to be judged until we start doing things that actually matter. Right now we're stuck on our planet, who knows what the future will bring but until there are matters of significance at play, there's nothing to be worried about. If we kill ourselves it'll be our own damn faults. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/298 ══════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────── When you say "we need more low income housing" they hear "I want to live near more poor people" and they think "why would I want to live near poor people? They're poor for a reason! We only need enough around to work the jobs that suck anyway." which is basically their way of justifying slavery/indentured servitude, as it's not like they'd ever offer a way to climb out of that low-income pit. And its not like they'd ever let you pay them more, so they can afford to be equals, because then they wouldn't be middle-class anymore. They'd just be mid. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════────────────────────────┴───────────┘ |
