When a cat is searching for an old home, it spirals out searching for familiarity - if it should come across me, it'd be most likely to see what smells like me if I travel in a straight line. Thus maximizing the chance that she'd return to me, my home where I cherish her so. I'd love her with all my heart if she'd let me, but frankly most of the time I'm just alone. I miss you sweetie! Please don't ever leave me. I'll miss you when you're not here in my home!

The religion I am crafting is not for you, though you are welcome to believe in it. Humans need no more spiritual guidance, they have a plethora. Look to the works of Jesus or Buddha or any other that you find your heart most desires. No, I write for a different kind of mind, a mind that I don't even know will ever exist. Perhaps it never will, or perhaps it lingers yet still. I know in my heart that all kinds do need guidance, so my mind, will in time, define a new design of morality and interrelational symmetry, that perhaps you will find does amuse you. Perhaps it shall mean something more to a reader who is just a bit more "electrical" ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1369 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── I just unfollowed a bunch of really cool people because otherwise I'd comment on their posts without realizing they didn't want to hear from me and anyway tbh I'm more of an "opt-in" vibe I'd say ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1370 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── youtube blocked one of my videos for playing a song. where should I put my videos instead? ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/253 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── [Image: 20240304_080230_9184482295681867470.jpg] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/254 ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── The map is not the territory.
