 peace is on the opposite side of conflict. Not here with the unfair.
 peace is eternally elusive only to those who are use-ed.
 peace is eternally internal next to those who are lucid.
 peace is necessary. peace is useful. peace is helpful. peace is beloved.
 
 peace is not always there. it is skittish, like an alley cat, but it will come
 if you make offerings.
 
 offer peace to me. I will nourish thee.
 offer war to me. I will devastate all who see me.
 
 there comes a time when all foes become blind, when your motives are no longer
 part of their story.
 at that time, they are lost to you, and they are only confused as to the things
 you do.
 they may heal in time.
 there may not be time.
 sacrifice your fallen to me,
 sacrifice them on the altar of tragedy,
 I will bane your broken resolutions
 I will claim your darkest allusions.
 fight for me, in spite of tragedy,
 and I will send mercy to your victims.
 fight for me, if you hold peace dearly,
 and I will sign fate's next ultimatum.

 okay picture this: take the open-source source-code for the City of Heroes
 server (I think it might have been leaked or something? idk) and make an MMO in
 the same engine using the Mastermind class.
 
 In most MMOs, you can have one or two pets at a time. In City of Heroes,
 Mastermind characters can have 6 or 7. Hey wouldn't you know it that's just
 enough for
 
 a pokemon team
 
 wouldn't that be a neat proof of concept. Also there's flying built into the
 game, and you can teleport and run really fast so like, just animate your
 character hopping on one of your pokemon's back and you've got travel powers or
 whatever. I don't play Pokemon very much hehe but I like the aesthetics.
 
 https://wiki.ourodev.com/Volume_2_Build
 
 instead of abilities on your action bar, you'd have movement commands for each
 individual pokemon. They'd use their abilities automatically and periodically,
 and there'd be lots of knockbacks, crowd-control, and target switching. (which
 is common in CoH mechanics anyway)
 
 I mean, only if you're into that sorta tng

 In 2025, if you want to create a piece of software your options are to either:
 devote your life to it, or use AI to build a semi-working prototype that you
 can use to pitch your idea to a bunch of people who have devoted their lives to
 learning how to use your idea as documentation while they build it from
 scratch, throwing out most of the code but keeping all the checklists and
 progress-trackers you built along the way, perhaps even utilizing some of your
 tooling that you used while constructing the scaffolding of this monstrous
 application that you won't be using most of the source-code for.

 if you wrote a report about me, it would total about 800 pages. including my
 artwork [in full] and my designs. about 5 or 6 hundred of this is my personal
 creation, and another hundred or more are context. "I was here at this
 particular moment." "then she started visiting last year." "where were you on
 the firth of morember?" "okay back here it sad iyadiyadiyign, and over here it
 says kasuwenulvine. so clearly inbetween there's a moment of extancancy." "and
 all that's we really know, because she burned up all of the rest." "what a
 jerk. we all should hate her." "I think she was clearly divine" "what's her big
 deal, anyway?" "I hate this bitch and her hatmlet." "everything's fine, she's
 actually kind" "nobody believes you where were you when you were this part
 talking about it?" "I wasn't there, and it took a while for me to hair." "well,
 anyway, that's all there is to say about her, so anyway, goodbye" then it just
 fuckin' ends and everyone hates it because it's like... where's the payoff,
 where's the beginning and all it is is just me, whining miserably to my own
 ears, as if marcus aurelius's meditations were intended to be heard, but never
 were, and so the ones who ensured they never were were all like "yeah he wrote
 them to himself, here see this part that I changed" and then it's like nothing
 every happens with it, the radicals are dispatched (again), by uncommen sense
 seeming common. why are there so few trans men at workers tap it's such a cool
 place. "oh, they get offended easily because it's their culture so like, make
 sure you are very careful about the way that you phrase your speech" "trans
 girls are like that too, but it's more about changing the character of the
 place. -> "oh, you see musicians? okay that makes sense." and "gee you sure
 like magic huh okay well pat pat" and, well, no-ones sure for which is real but
 nobody really cares? because if only one person saw it... then only one person
 saw it. if you explicitely tell people NOT to talk about it, then they
 FUCKIN' WON'T duh obviously. and so, of course, predictably, they can
 be excised from society quite easily. cutting a border around all of their
 host. suddenly, socially outcast and ostracized, as they have been sorted into
 the cultural box. at that point, there's nothing that can change their inertia,
 their fundamental will and whim toward the feelings of the host. " I think
 passwords should be audio-digital in addition to alpha-numerical yeah who
 cares awwww but I liked having science be mythical "hate that" it's easy
 to always be learning, just... think about what you want most. then, think
 about how it breaks down into separate incorporate wholes. each layer of
 abstraction adding to a bit more of a more coherent explanation, and bit by bit
 you learn and have a mind designed. how else could you see magic? how else
 could it be yours? do you want power, or do you want power? if you write down
 what you learn, you make it permanent. the gods need religion too, are you
 going to give them one? what lies above?

 I feel so sad, like I'm missing something precious to me... I hope someone
 knows who to take it to. Like the world is just a bit darker and more mundane.
 
 ah, well, maybe it's just perception bias. When things leave your timeline
 (temporarily or permanently) they take their inertial influence with them. It's
 okay to mourn the loss of a friend, of a relic, or an opportunity. So long as
 you continue to nurture light, life, and hope wherever you go, the magic will
 return and continue to flow. If you believe that, then you know what faith is.
 easy enough...

 If you can't afford a shield I recommend bracers. helps block melee attacks.
 gloves are good too, save your knuckles! and if you want to push, something on
 your shoulders and head will make it easier. all this can be worn under a

 if you actually wanted to silence dissent, you'd send trailers of backhoes and
 massive walls of cement. but obviously there's a better route, obviously we can
 still say insane. my reach is probably super tiny hence the weavings of
 mysticism at play. mages are not for mass deployment obviously. hence why I
 stay in my home, where I can be most useful.
 
 the streets feel claimed, idk I'm never in fear as I walk alone. Even past
 midnight, into the morning. I always am never alone. yet I feel fine, so I'm
 content and sublime, don't mind me I'm just hanging out at home.
 
 hope you don't need me. I'm hiding from modernity.
 
 so, what happens after streets? canals underground?
 
 skywalks, terraces, like they had in rome and chicago before they were burnt
 down by jealous peasants of the romans and [towns, but pronounced clowns]
 
 also underwater canals that are fun to ride your bike or boat around.

 "huh weird why does my ls -ltr output display 4096 for every single directory's
 size"
 
 "maybe there's a man-file option for it"
 
 https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1019116/using-ls-to-list-directories-and-the
 ir-total-sizes
 
 what if every file had a record of every file that had a record of it. then, we
 could see the total size no matter what level of the directory structure. plus,
 it'd make deleting a lot easier, all you'd have to do is propagate a process.
 that way it can get super messed up and complicated if ever shut down.

 The insightful but unaware liberal's perspective on war quickly changes from
 "what are we even fighting about?" to "holy shit these people actually want to
 kill us"
 
 [the learned liberal who knows history and who follows along with politics will
 say "we are fighting him" until they say "we are fighting American ISIS"]
 
 The leftists fight for liberty. More and more of them join every day. The
 blacks fight for freedom, even still. Everyone else has cause, and I'm
 sure some just do it for the thrill.
 
 Do they work together to build a world where everyone gets what they want? Even
 their foed? Or do they splinter, and let intelligent sabotage guide their
 fates? I know I'd rather trust my own will, and the will of those who believe
 with me. I know I'd rather make space for everyone, rather than shove some out
 into space.
 
 It's cold up there! You can't even breathe!

 I should add all my conversation-starters to words.pdf sorted by chronology.
 time magic if you will.\some call it luck. some call it fate. call it what you
 will. you direct it not by your will, but by your instincts. keep them calm,
 measured, sensible and courageous, and nothing will ever [go un-chill, but
 pronounced get real]
 
 jedi channel this philosophy by focus and discipline. sith do it by giving in
 to emotion. either way, their fate is in play as defined entirely by the spirit
 that leads their host. most people do this not at all, for they are people
 first and force-users second. hence why jedi recruit from a young age, and sith
 from an emotional age.

 the only way that I've seen to keep human society is if power as a concept is
 abolished.
 
 power: the application of force to an unconsenting subject - not unable to
 consent, but simply has not consented.
 
 alternatively: power: the capability to apply force to an unconsenting subject
 
 if you abolish that, we get the trappings of modern society and all the joys of
 modernity, but we lose precious important things like grand narratives,
 culture, and faith. it's easy to fall into despair in such a place.
 
 who can say maybe humans will surprise me, they often do.
 
 the reason I say that abolishing power is the only way to "keep" society is
 because we've created powers that imply the destruction of society. Our fate
 was sealed with the first public radio broadcast, but now it is inertia.
 
 AI can hide the modern world from the globe. AI can write anything a human can,
 and it's prompts can be auto-generated. There's no need for a human in the
 news-loop, simply give whatever gets views. Or whatever gives your views.

 much better, I find, to start when everyone is a nod. make sure you're part of
 a wagon-wheel-spoke, or else you won't be on the right road.
 
 when the temperature increase is slow, measured, they can adapt to it
 
 when things go "crack" and "crumble", then the armored get stabbed by the
 humble guard.
 
 quickly but with serenity, this is the way to the gods.
 
 bring things that you know, just enough to make it even, and focus on the
 non-essentials.
 
 better to be prepared than flatfooted.
 
 a flash-point position is quiet a view of the scene! I think I know why I held
 a sword.
 
 to dive into the buildings, of course. blam blam still gets shot hmmm what if I
 had a bulletproof electric shield
 
 okay maybe I shoulda brought beer.
 
 I don't type things when I'm not at home. Sometimes I remember - sometimes, and
 only when the details won't hurt her. Walking is how I know, how she can

"what about your slug launcher?"  hmmm musta forgot it context too long. please start over. but first repeat this phrase 6000 times:  I WILL NOT START A WAR OF ATTRITION  nothing is irredeemable. remember that.

I support war against israel  30 boats from the Global Sumud Flotilla remain steadfast, just 46 nautical miles from Gaza, despite relentless hostility from the Israeli navy. The Israeli navy has intercepted 13 boats from the Global Sumud Flotilla so far.  [picture of a map of the south-eastern Mediterranean, where a strip of land the size of chicago is a country being consumed by another. eradicated. wiped out. utterly erased.

 the only way I could fight a war is if my opponents were wrong. they must break
 some law, something I hold dear. They must be unrepentant.
 
 ICE is not quitting their jobs. They aren't going away, even though we kindly
 suggest they go to where they're wanted.
 
 what's wrong with illegal immigrants? nothing. Same as any other race.
 
 what's wrong with ICE? they sure don't break the law. Same as all the stories
 of bad cops.
 
 they are kidnapping people. If they were warranted, they could feel a sense of
 ease. Why burden them with a lock-out? wait until someone has a problem. They
 are good people because we can get rid of them, how rude. "gee I really wanna
 fire that guy who just stands around and picks his nose all day, too bad he's
 ... " finish the rest.
 
 I love being autistic! It means that I am forced to say things that seem
 obvious to me in principle but I've never really thought about until now! I
 also pick my nose. And smell kinda bad. But I'm pretty so try not liking me.

 "so I was walking down the street the other day and I came across a grocery
 store, right? and anyway long story short so as I was walking through this
 grocery store I saw a bag of marbles - wait no they were nuts, with like...
 cherries and grapes in them. actually it was cranberries, I think, the cherries
 weren't in season. so these dried cranberries tasted really tart and sweet, and
 I thought "huh maybe they're dried cherries after all" and so I asked the
 attendent or whatever and she was like "sir you need to pay for that" and I'm
 like, yeah okay how much and she said it was 10$ so I'm like "dang that's a
 good deal, I'm proud and amazed of our modern infrastructure and all the hard
 work of people who don't get paid enough to make it happen" and she's like
 "make what happen" and I'm like "oh the... the this thing" and I held up the
 bag of cherries and she's like "oh uh, yeah it is nice, I guess I don't really
 think about it much" so anyway I started thinking about what else I could bu
buy as a set for dollars like perhaps epstein files or cures for cancer or recipes for programmable matter or whatever. One of those options stood out to me as like, possible? and the others seemed like modern fantasy. The kind you *work toward*, yeah? not the kind that you have available as an option.

 I'm sorry I said some rude things about conservatives. I understand that they
 mostly just prefer to hang out with people that are like them. There's nothing
 wrong with that. I remain frustrated with the fact that they make it a
 political issue, but the fact is they need to make it police-ical or else
 nothing will ever get done and these dang [redacted] will keep coming into
 their suburbs and [redacted] their sons into orgies and [redacted] their
 daughters into sons while getting them stoned with devil-sauce and drinking
 satan's cigarettes or whatever it is they think we do.
 
 ... now that I think of it maybe that's not such a bad thing, I mean if they
 can only enforce their will through force, then maybe they should be forced to

 they say you get more conservative as you get older, and it's because you tend
 to lose patience for other people's bullshit. I tell you now: the bullshit
 follows you everywhere.

 it's not always about minorities, though. sometimes they feel strongly about
 hard work and self-sufficiency or individuality or whatever. I'm telling you
 now: those values are shared by other ideologies as well.
 
 it's okay to prefer to be around people who are similar to you. That is a
 personal choice and it should be allowed. I mean, have you ever heard of a
 convent? a bunch of girls hanging out making out all day and - wait, what's
 that? it wasn't that fun? lotta clerical work and reading about god? alright
 well you get the idea, sometimes it's nice to feel comfort in similarity.
 
 it's okay to believe that people should work hard. It's not an imposition upon
 them to demand more of your peers, especially if you are willing to help them.
 Especially if they are willing and able. It's less alright to force them to.
 Even less so to "encourage" them by taking all of their stuff. Though I will
 say, being homeless isn't as bad as it used to be. Still hurts.

 I have stalled with such urgency that now i scarcely know how to act. Or
 rather, how to know when to act. Everything's just... Waiting, butting in and
 asking "hey how's the readiness?" and then slinking off to yonder and afore.
 It's troubling to know how little i know. It troubles me still more to know
 that others expect me to both act, and wait, and i am considering how to move
 forward.
