Poems in true chronological order by post date
-> file: fediverse/1709 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── do you ever wonder about how much heat is absorbed the plants and leaves? Kinda makes me think that they're keeping us warm at night. The desert is much colder than you'd expect, and so it the moon, or mars, or any other sufficiently devastated forest habitat. (plains are my favorite biome, please don't take them away with your stupid climate change, they're one of the most at risk) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1710 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── @user-246 If a profile is non-existent, then it's much harder to train a public-facing AI on your training data. Interesting how if someone disappears there's very little recourse if they suddenly talk just slightly different, and anyone who notices can say "hey does anyone know this person" - like at a party when someone's throwing shit or whatever and it's like "bro who are you with" how weird that our jobs take us all over the place. kinda makes me think about how much more stable you are with roots. I wonder if the cause of our employment instability is due to a cause that would also separately desire us to be less stable? Makes me think about the common effects of instability, and make me wonder who exactly would gain from such actions. do you ever think about how the media will just, like, inflame people's emotions just because if everyone bored then they'll go serial killer or something? Er, wait, I mean they'll join unions or whatever. Ah hahaha weird right propaganda cuts both ways. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1711 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── @user-246 Maybe a design that put weight on the sternum instead of the breast area? With more support for the waist, like hiking backpacks sometimes do. That way you can spread out the physical cost of toiling to carry it, like wearing a belt with a chain shirt to distribute the pounds. seriously just, arm straps that meet in the middle instead of the shoulders. Probably won't be as good but it might be better. Could do under the boobs as well, for like a triple attachment point. You can sorta simulate this by clipping the two straps together and pulling them to the center, but not all backpacks support that. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1712 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── @user-246 I think you're right, I tend to examine things at their most extreme as practice in identifying my own weaknesses. ^_^ ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1713 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── ┌───────────────────────────┐ │ CW: re: divination, tarot │ └───────────────────────────┘ @user-1071 like a king who dictates on high, the taller the chair the farther the fall. how simple is it, when everyone trusts you, to betray the wishes for direction they grant upon you. By leveraging their direction to forward your own ends, you are depriving them of the liberty to choose their own ends. how cruel is it! to be the reason for distrust! alas, who can you go to for guidance if not anybody you trust? ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1714 ╔════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────┐ ║ @user-246 │ ║ │ ║ most artists get around that by posting everything they make everywhere they go. │ ║ │ ║ I tend to be a bit selective, because I'm different things to different people. │ ║ All things I care for and own, but designed for different context. │ ║ │ ║ for example, I rarely share what's in my journals, but that's about half of │ ║ what I've made. I show them to basically everyone I know IRL, but very few │ ║ people actually understand or are into them. When I find someone who does it │ ║ fills me with hope, that perhaps I'm not as lost as I had thought. │ ║ │ ║ perhaps it makes me less trustworthy, but I'm not used to being exposed. I │ ║ never used Twitter, I don't use Facebook (not that often) so my "self" was │ ║ something I preferred to perform as on a stage of my own design. │ ║ │ ║ Like wearing different clothes to express yourself, or performing gender in a │ ║ certain way, I am myself when I am most expressful. And I do that in different │ ║ ways in different contexts. I'd love to show more, because I'm a performer at │ ║ heart, and a performer of the heart. │ ╟─────────┐ ┌───────────┤ ║ similar │ │ different │ ╚═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1715 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── @user-246 true, but what is a poem if not a silly construction of phrases? Those words don't belong together, what are you doing! And yet it fills you will a feeling that the author intended, thus being poetry as a joke. problem is if everyone says the same joke, it gets kinda... old... hence why you should express yourself as much as you can. I wonder if fewer people are "alternative" these days because they all started hanging out on the internet and trying to differentiate themselves amongst each other instead of amongst "normal people"? Weird thought, srry haha ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ |
