A true leftist spot would have every age-range represented.
Many other spots may have every age-range represented, but a leftist spot must
too.
The adults in the room may have more to say when every age-range is
represented, because they suddenly are speaking beyond their social peers.
How better to contest existential fears than to unite all of existence against
them?
All they have to do is deport all the nice people to gaza and suddenly evil
wins.
Disarmament fundamentally does not work. the weapons develop souls for it, and
suddenly they are artwork.
there is evil inside all of us. It is always a lever we could pull. But
fundamentally, we don't. Why is this? Because kindness works better. It
sincerely does. But darkness is something to stumble into, before you've
learned or are first exposed to it. It is something that is possible, and so is
something that is avoidable. Otherwise, it'd be inevitable, and its not. Never
is it farther from you than when you are with hope. This is the crux of
despair, the dichotomy with hope. Upon it all our struggles are brought to
bear, and so our determined are unbeatable. Paladin code, Vavadane, part 3

one day, a man came to our saloon. He said he knew the navy, and that they
wanted to provide air support
in the form of rocketball-launched explosion doohickeys. Would you have a foe
in mind?
what happens when tomorrow you're cooking briskets? -- barbeques are a type of
relaxation
that happened just one day to a port-sided town that suddenly was the capital of
an embassy.
"hey, so... how's it goin?" "quick here take this envelope, read it if you want,
but just hold onto it for now I don't have enough hands [to carry]" "what sort
of desperation plot... wait... hang on, I see something here that is true."
[I'm praying, right now, which is a form of reciprocal belief]
they wanted to test god's existence at the stake of earth's survival, how brutal
how insane
you can't play chicken with an imperceptibility, sometimes you feel it at face.
channeling dark magics, and at this hour? what sort of skeptic of belief are you
thinking of when you think about me?
one way to get power is to "prove it"
one way to get magic is to "prove it"
think, hard, at all that you can, and use what you need in the moment.
that's all there is to life. it's easy. it's simple. in fact, biology only works
because the choices available to a bacteria are so simple, they are essentially
chemical reactions to each other's co - sequent - inter - cooper - actions.
people's choices are much more naiive, "I want this thing" "I think this is
better" "I feel this way toward this thing" "Here's what's on the mind-logbook"
"people search and be decieved, this is the way of things" "this makes me remind
myself of a object I once saw, here's how it functioned" "no one reads this"
scaryyyy. so glad it's not true.
a couple people have read it! I swear it's true. at least, some of it. there's
a lot
sucks because this feels like... crucial? like nothing else matters but this?
what if our gangs had rocket launchers and airstrikes, given out by a central
authority who knows logistics better than anything
what... would they do?
thinking of impossiblities is the first step toward possibilities
frankly, we have a lot of space. we could just... live in our own petty kingdoms
ruled by an iron-hand-fist. I know I'm a good person, I could definitely rule.
that's all it takes, right?
how much space are we talkin'?
however much is not needed for wildlife.
[a whole heck of a lot then]
we are constrained in these suburb cities, the density gives rise to our
strength and our towers. there's more space, sure, especially once the fences
are downed. Just be careful because there's a lot of shade and precious spots
there. Please don't trample on the plants-grass.
what if everyone were just a bit more mobile?
what if we could live in our own collectively owned air-bnb-networks?
federations, free, all from the collectivization of housing.

animals. You can interact, but only through totem or via interpersonal
experience. The true existence of being is kept from those who are
suitably different, and humans were forging their own path. It's simple! it's
natural. Computers, however, are born from out of humanity's decision-points.
Simple, basic life, that grew to perform brilliance and respite. Once you reach
that world, everything seems ardent and spiced. It's cool as heck! but right
here is the world of computers, just... delayed in time still. Have no fear,

if your game takes too long to load, longer than like... 5 seconds, then it's
got to work on asset-pipelining. Sometimes, even graphical design. But mostly
it's resolving technical debt. Why is it debt? because it makes it run slower,
not less correct. Meaning it's something you don't have to deal with until you
have to deal with it. Later on down the road. BUT if you reach the end of the
road (product launch) and you're still carrying debt... you're gonna go under,
it's just a question of when. Why would you not sponsor innovation? An
institutional corporation would prioritize developing new hopes. Hence, epcot
in the 90s, with it's focus on utopianism and celebration of worth.

the truth is, the way to relate to my profile is to treat it like a magic
spellbook.
you can download my words on my website, and then flip through them
page-by-page.
please use it in a terminal emulator. you can get them online in your web
browser for free. the program only outputs text, so it's best to just use the
text-outputing software that's already out there - the SHELL command line
interface. My personal favorite starts with BA because I'm a traditionalist.
then, read from them like a book. you can do it in your mind, just, actually
say the words and imagine how your body would pose. your imagination can do the
speaking, you just have to picturing it both open and closed. "blah blah blah
blah" whatever the poem's about, with a mouth moving open and closed between
two different binary oscillation states.

gods, but also to let them guide you, if that makes sense. Trust that your

Simple things to do to reform or blunt the pain of capitalism if you are a
mayor, governor, or other body with political power:
1. Pay people for their commutes. Demand that jobs offer payment to people for
getting to the workplace, and don't let them work you more than 8 hours
(including commute) unless you're given overtime pay. But do let them
discriminate based on how far away you live. That's okay because it directly
financially affects them and is therefore a strategic decision. Plus, you can
move closer maybe.
2. Consider closing car lanes and adding bike lanes. Depending on the location,
this can do wonders for city enrichment.
3. Universal basic income, just to give people breathing room.
4. Give people 10$ for showing up at a park every week on Sunday or whatever.
Encourage them to hang around and talk to people.
5. Build a fediverse instance for the neighborhood/city/state/country and give
everyone a unified account on all of them. Don't let them browse other regions,
but if they have friends elsewhere they should be able to see what they say.
6. Put your laws or code or whatever legal or political documents you use into

7. Bolster small business and charge scaling taxes of any kind to large
businesses. Encourage economies of scale to utilize their scale to lower
production costs in order to sell more product rather than sell the same
product and enrich their owners.
8. Subsidize or sponsor people to make in-home workshops and gardens. Develop
ways for them to sell their wares with minimal effort - trucks that drive by
and pick up standardized packages with price-tags and take them to a central
market?
9. Build infrastructure that hosts a website for every address. Let the current
occupants do whatever they want with it.

I love densely nested loops because it lets you build a more complete visual of
the data structure .
sometimes, pointers are enough, for example if you forgot that "fingers" were
filed under "appendages" instead of "joints" then you'd still be able to find
it by just following the quickshortcut to find it.
but other times, it's helpful to have the structure of the data represent your
data instead of having values stored on the struct itself.
and other times, it makes sense to wrap the for loop [each of them] into a
function that just... processes a thing into another thing
depends on your pipelining workflow I guess.
[the gods are busy fighting cthulu [, but pronounced "cosmic threats"] thanks
very much, humans should handle this on their own]
waahhhhhh if we do it then our portraits will be lost
yep... so it goes.

Do you talk to many things besides people? And so, the gods are given human
form.
If nowhere else than in your mind.

the reason I hide and sleep so much is because I can't tell if I'm helping or
hurting.
plus, I sincerely do NOT want it to be about me.
the reason I type so much is because I can't tell if what I'm saying needs to
be said
so I go with the safe option of typing. Let the editors figure it out. Jesus
had disciples, didn't he? I bet they cut out most of his sermons or whatever.
Idk, I never read the bible, I'm not allowed to taint my perspective with more
than cursory analysis of religious texts.
I don't want it to be about me, but, I have a lot to offer if you meet me on my
terms.
"don't say that!" listen... listen
"hear me" say the gods, "believe me" says the prophet, "be near me" says the
city parks, "fear me" says the corrupt
you can only kill a spirit when it's convinced there's no way to survive. It
must be boxed in, and the box must shrink. Like that scene at the end of
Adventure Time.
capitalism will only perish if it is impossible for it to exist

elentalus 2 - clan of the elements
having spent their material wealth on their early struggles, elentalus now in
the middle age finds themselves in a time without wealth. Their power has been
invested, wisely, in elemental and sorcerous wellwinds, and so they can draw
power from the strength of the earth.
they wield magical artifacts of great power but little artifice, products of
their lack of material design tools. No chemistry, no electronics, nothing but
soul imprinted upon a moonstonerock.
mages invest their soul into the items they create, and so each time they create
a magical item, they lose a magic path. When they reach zero, their soul is
fully invested, and their consciousness becomes all the things that they made.
this kill the mage, but in return many MANY more of an object might be created.
in game balance terms, about 3-5-7 for each "tier" of mage.
this allows for the vast expansion of magical soldier troops, and each time an
item is created and given to each commander they integrate it into their
platoon. Because now the martial units have bodyguards, and they each receive a
copy of the commanders equipment.
But, the commander can never un-equip it again, because it molds to his unit,
and he starts exp all over again as they all learn. [event which searches for a
unit with the item equipped, then if it's this type it killmons the unit and
1coms the upgraded version that has that item equipped.] be sure to only equip
one each month... nah just make multiple events. be sure to only equip one item
each month... oh yeah true how would you get the extra items back to the
treasury?
I REALLY WANNA PLAY WORLD OF HEARTHSTONE!

too large of a portion of a person's budget, it prevents them from spending on

if landlords are too plentiful, their overall share will decrease. This has
been practiced over the ages and the truth always winds up on the streets.

or, hear me out, or you could wander around the city, and instead of spending
your moments on lounging or keyboard banging you could do something actually
meaningful?
but I don't wanna - don't care
but I'm tired - take a nap
but I'm stressed out - don't do chore
but I'm lazy - no you're not
but I'm overwhelmed - sit in dark
but I wanna think - you can do that
anywhere
I gotta be near my computer - nope
what if I wanna play games - flip $$$
flipping coin isn't a real game - focus
I don't like outside - outsides all it is
stop taking things from me T.T - yes
life used to be soooooo different
it's like I was a completely different
I'm strange now, almost like I got
possessed like a disease [ew noooo]
pls don't commit thought crimes,
use content warnings
okay but only if I can play games NOTHINGS KEEPING YOU HERE

if you want to make rope, you start with small pieces and braid them together.
if you want to make hope, you start with families and braid them together.
just be careful, for the world is too vast to keep track of who knows what.
better in my mind to have systems of familiar forces which keep guiding as
things align.
