CW:  sorta-works-for-colorblind-people-sorta-not-definitely-doesn't-work-for-regular- blind-people    if you ever need to keep track of the location of your friends in the dark, try  giving them glowstick bracelets. if you color coordinate them you can tell  which is which, and as long as you aren't concerned about others noticing you  then it should be easy to find them all night. works best in places with mixed  zones of lighting / darkness, like suburbs.  it's impossible to be a blind strategist because of concerns like this. I say  blind in the general sense, and not just referring to visual impairment - every  sense provides another tactical angle. more perspectives, more data. sorta like  taking pictures of a 3d object. when one's sight is lost, you might miss a  backside or a hidden approach vector that would come easily to others.  at the same time though, a sense of focus can clarify certain truths by paring  down the amount of irrelevant facets. like optical illusions, sometimes xtra  info is hidden in the same data...   -> file: fediverse/0288.txt -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CW: religion    religion is a set of shared cultural parables and morals that are deemed  important by the people who follow them. like, a premade config file filled  with "sensible defaults" passed down from parent to child to friends to parent.  different people have different use-cases, so it follows they'd configure their  [cut off here]

 I want to make evil things and sell them to rich people to cause them to have a
 change of heart

 Did you hear that? They made decentralized anti fascist resistance illegal.
 Well, guess it's time to join organizations en mass until they can't help but
 split into various smaller, local organizations that have focused areas of
 concern. I guess they can't help but assemble into larger and larger meta
 organizations, wresting power from those they send to infiltrate and debilitate
 large organizations, and ensuring that power is balanced in an anarchic way
 such that any one leader can't be snatched and dispatched at will.
 
 Ape together strong. Yay! Can you make that into a song? No? Then you are
 useless to our movement, autistic artist hero. We need stamina, strength, and
 temperance in the face of bloodshed.

 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, that should be enough to bury it for a while. Hope they don't see me on
 their feed.

 I love symlinks! they make my hard drive so much more organized.
