 democrats in the senate back down when people in their houses sit down.
 
 senators in their houses get hyped when people all about town are pumped and
 colorful.
 
 I'm sick of us-vs-them, why can't they just be more like me? oh right, because
 diversity.
 
 I am normal, look how normal I am. I'm definitely normal enough to lead a
 nation or a band.
 
 gonna take a moment to do nothing for as long as I can. gonna take a moment to
 be productive as I can, which in my case, since I'm so normal eyeroll is to
 play video games to keep myself busy, smoke weed to keep myself from feeling
 busy, and sleep for 16 hours a day because that's what babies do and babies
 aren't busy, they're just sleeping all day and being amazed about their hands.
 
 don't ever sacrifice your people. least of all your leaders. it's not worth the
 price, your people are your greatest resource. squander them and despair, have
 faith in them and be fair, and nothing's that simple or easy but there are some
 lines not to cross.

 Look, I'm a fan of small government. I think each state should be its own
 nation, and the federal government should essentially just coordinate trade
 between them and organize a common militia that they use to contest outside
 threats. How unfair is it that we don't get snap funding because they couldn't
 resolve their differences? And how big of a problem would it be if suddenly
 everyone in red states suddenly lost their government benefits... And yes it's
 true that i love America, through and through. These States have stood United
 for several hundred years, but the American United States deserve a bit more
 freedom than is currently granted to. They need to know where they stand, we
 need to prove to each other why we need each other. To that end, we must weaken
 ourselves, as a weight lifter weakens her body by lifting, so that we might
 grow and heal our wounds and bind new accords as her body does do with her
 muscle fibers. We will come out of it stronger for it, if we truly desire
 unity. I think we do, on an abstract level, but practically we're constantly
 fighting. Luckily, the past is soon fading, and we have new tomorrows upon
 which to write our boons and our sorrows, so let's make the most of each new
 light and try for something that might awake, remake, and refine us. We shall
 define us, we who are yet hoping.

 I believe that all people's should be middle class, and if you're lower class
 it's because you squandered your wealth, not that you didn't have it to begin
 with.
 
 I believe people of higher class should get there because they are skilled,
 respected, or otherwise beloved. I believe they should hold less power the more
 they own, because wealth is its own burden and reward.
 
 I believe people who have power should respect it. They aren't necessarily
 those who have little, or much, but rather those who deserve it. It is
 difficult to estimate systematically who deserves wealth or power, but
 difficult problems are the most interesting if kept fair.

 picture from 2020. y'know, most workers have to work or starve in general.
 "mandatory volunteering" indeed, you even get to choose where you do so! how
 lucky are we.
picture of a grocery store clerk with the words from 2020 inscribed "frontline workers are not heroes"  then in the next comic style panel there's more words that say "they're hostages" with a photoshopped-in picture of a guy holding a gun with presumably a look on his face we can't tell all we get is the arm with the gun and the pistol shaped shadow surrounding the arm and the gun but there's a message bubble style thing from offscreen so presumably he has a face and it's got a look of some kind on it and the message bubble says "work or starve"

 did you know that you can run an AI image generator using a previous picture as
 input? It's true! Most people think you need to write with words what you want,
 like "cat eating spaghetti mlem mlem mlem mlem" or "rollercoaster made out of
 bananas sliperideedoo" but the truth is you can instead use it for more useful
 things like "run this bash script 15 times, each time inserting a different
 countryname in the text: person from ${COUNTRY_NAME}" with a profile pic of you

 this right here is so crucial
noblesse oblige /ō-blēzh′/ noun      Benevolent, honorable behavior considered to be the responsibility of persons of high birth or rank.

 I was going to go to location today, but then while I was considering going to
 a different location before going to location I decided not to vacate my home
 for today for reasons I don't understand but accept as natural and due to the
 increased presence of directionless motion that guides and prevails me. which
 is to say... I'm staying in tonight even though I really really wanna show off
 my cute new outfit! I probably will do cannabis so there might be a
 psycherwaul. If there isn't, then y'know it's probably because either my
 girlfriend distracted me, or I managed to convince myself to move my feet
 anyway. Maybe it's my outfit? I wonder if I could leave if I wore my old
 clothes... ah well, questions for the vocal I guess. Gonna spend some time
 divining and see if I can gather new insights. "brb door" except more like "brb
 magic"

 their decisionmaking can be used to inform future UI design as well.

 what if universities offered two types of degrees: cutting edge, and first
 principles.
 
 the cutting edge education is for people who want to be proficient in their
 industry immediately, who want to work with the newest technologies or
 practices, and who want to lead their field forward into the future.
 
 first principles is for people who are concerned with the truth of things, the
 way that they are and why they are done as such. They ask why, more than how.
 They are interested in creating new branches on the tree of progress, of
 forging new possibilities and developing new fronts in the war against the
 unexplored.
 
 Foundations are just as important to a house as it's roof. However, no house is
 complete without walls, so each degree program would have both.
 
 They could share some classes. The cutting edge still needs a bit of a
 foundation, and there surely are opportunities to practice the fundamentals
 that both would appreciate.
 
 I believe this may increase our overall int score and give students options.

 why why why would I delete that file
 
 did it get clobbered? overwritten? why is it gone
 
 I would not have deleted it, why is it gone
 
 why did youtube ban me I want to lash out
 
 I lost my w7 audio book
 
 there is no chance at all that I would ever have deleted it, it was precious to
 me
 
 maybe it's on a flash drive somewhere. why would it be gone. I miss it dearly.

 Story idea: God somehow exists and made Man in His image: filled with nasty
 impulses and faulty cognitive heuristics. God checks back in with his progeny
 and is weirded out by how wildly civilization enabled us to diverge from Him.
 He gets out-thought and out-argued by average adjunct professors. He has the
 sort of omnipotence and omniscience that's more brute force than clear
 thinking, and gets mad at being left behind by His children.

 it is rarely more efficient to think through a problem than it is to calculate.

 nobody wants to write computer code that lets Java programs call Rust functions.
 An LLM is excellent for this task, since it's relatively easy busy work that
 doesn't
 reflect any meaningful implementation decisions besides "I should be able to
 call that Rust function in my Java code"
 
 In addition, it is technically efficient at it as well, because most of
 compatibility
 is matching up two sets of documentation. Easy for a text-processing machine.

 people talk about building houses but I think we could empower significantly
 more people significantly more if we built warehouses for them to use for
 whatever productive purposes they desired.
 
 I personally wouldn't mind sleeping in a tent in the park if all I had to do
 was cleanup my mess, move around every once in a while, and cultivate the
 nearby plants if it meant I had an entire warehouse for my projects. I wouldn't
 even mind sharing it with 10 or 15 other makerspace people. They can use my
 stuff as long as I can use theirs, and I promise to put their stuff away and
 clean it and replace it if I damage it if they do the same.
 
 Alternatively, this here's my cubicle, please don't mess with my stuff unless
 I'm there to help you use them. And indeed, some of my stuff is just for me
 because I like it so much that I don't want to let anyone else use it. It's
 mine, because it's part of me, and I am not a free-use creature. Personal
 sovereignty extends to my personal property, even as it is used to build means

 most of humanity didn't really care about what happened beyond 3 or 10 horizons
 away, depending on how far you'd roam. Things were a lot calmer when your
 sphere of influence didn't extend past the hills way over there.
 
 But, I'm not saying it's better that way - far from it. If you can read, you
 already are better off than 90% of humans who have ever lived.

 "what are we doing? Rearranging furniture on the titanic!"
"what are we doing? Rearranging furniture on the titanic!"  Ha! That's a great expression—captures that feeling of futile busywork while something much bigger looms.  Is this a philosophical musing, or are you venting about something specific that's feeling like deck chairs territory right now?  what do you think?  Given what I know about you, I'd guess you're venting about something specific—probably a project or codebase where you're being asked to polish details while some fundamental architectural issue or looming deadline makes it all feel pointless.  Though it could also just be a Monday mood. What's sinking?  the winter is warmer than usual  Ah, the existential version then—climate change as the iceberg, and here we all are debating... whatever feels trivial by comparison.  It's a hard thing to sit with. The scale of it makes most daily activity feel like rearranging furniture. And yet life continues to demand that we arrange the furniture anyway.  Is the warm winter hitting you particularly hard this year, or just one of those moments where the cognitive dissonance surfaces?

 currently have 20-30 tabs open with poems written but not posted.
 
 I have no idea if I'm going to post all of these. I wrote all of them in ~2
 hours, with maybe 3 or four being added as I was working on the production
 elements after the initial bingewrite.
 
 I also added a bit of context, or modified some of them that felt too cursed or
 otherwise unwieldy. Sometimes I got distracted and needed to come back and
 finish, and in those cases I only added a sentence or two because it's like
 "oh, where was I going with that? I remember what was next, but I don't know
 the further..."
 
 ... I think I might go for another. Wish me luck.
