 if I had to take a lesson from this, it'd be that it's better to host
 somewhere else and be boosted by someone on the larger, sleepy servers. it's
 not their fault they didn't set an alarm, so they have no way to know what
 time it is. plus for some reason they get upset if you wake them up when
 you're roommates?
 
 downside is, boosts only show up for followers, right? meaning you'll only be
 seen if you want to be seen, which means you gotta be roommates if you wanna
 be seen when they don't want to see. tricky tricky...

 humans are computers that inhale air, produce electricity, and exhale carbon.
 
 give me a biochemical or mechanical process for doing that on a reasonable
 scale for cheap and you can solve global warming by replacing power outlets
 with an energy generation box. Doubles as an air purifier and UPS.

A two panelled meme.  First panel shows a guy kneeling down beside a pool with another person up to their neck in water. The kneeling guy says "Senpai of the pool, what is your wisdom"  Second panel zooms in on the Senpai's face, who says "what the fuck did you just call me"

 Dear Anakin, for as long as you've known him, Obiwan learned just as much from
 you as you did from him. His title as "master" was a formality - he didn't get
 it because he was better than you, and "padawan" does not mean you are lesser.
 There is no hierarchy. He was learning to teach at the same speed that you
 learnt to learn. You built each other up, an unstoppable force for good in the
 galaxy.
 
 But then an evil wizard stole your heart and twisted your mind. Have no fear,
 fear is the path to the dark side. Your mother knows this well, for it is a
 common lesson among all people as they age. Fear not, hate not, and feel fury
 more than rage. You can bring the universe into a bright golden age, never
 forget your purpose and your [potential / duty]

 camouflage in an urban environment is not camo. rather, regular clothes of
 black or white.
 
 don't wear sports glasses, you look like a dummy.
 
 revolution is when they murder everyone but your friends. this is what
 happens, ya dingus not ideal. "okay who are the bad guys here? okay let's go
 shoot them to death with our bullets and guns."
 
 violence as a first aspect, cause as a third spark. "I have a strange urge to
 play video games?"

 you don't have to write poetry to write notes. The poetics are just practice

 accessibility software which puts subtitles on everyone's zoom faces who are
 talking to each other one-on-one with selective muting and an adaptive dimming
 feature where if you click or tap on someone it makes them brighter and makes
 your audio louder for them (if they unmute you) and whenever you click
 somewhere else it slightly dims all the others. this brightness is shared by
 the way so if a lot of people want to talk to you then a lot of people can
 hear. oh also subtitles with voice-to-text functionality. and a built-in paint
 program for sharing notes or designs. the opinionated version has no chat
 program either, you have to type it into the paint program part which they get
 really defensive of if you suggest making it more forum-post style with an
 included keyboard typing delivery mailbox as well.

 i like to design games. my darling is a game based on Majesty (2000) the         │
 Fantasy Kingdom Sim. you can think of it like a management strategy game where   │
 you control the knobs and levers that a fantasy monarch might have -             │
 allocating funds, placing quest bounties, hiring heroes, and organizing the      │
 peasantry. the important part is that your units are not controllable - they     │
 just do their own thing.                                                         │
 unrelated, but I think we should design games as APIs that a user's preferred    │
 tool could interface with and render as they will. it'd help a lot with          │
 cross-platform compatibility and would allow people to customize parts of the    │
 game to their desires.                                                           │
 unrelated, but I think if you could design an AI that could play games           │
 (perhaps through an API) that it hadn't been trained on, I think you would       │
 have a pretty convincing argument for abstract "problem solving" capabilities.   │
 unrelated, but games like the one I described are good for situations where      │
 people don't have to trust their monarch. to it you are AGI                      │

tumblr post titled "this is not for you."  this is a post aimed at me and other people who constantly fall into guilt spirals over all the things they can't do, and feel they should somehow magically be able to do anyway.  For me, and for the others, this is a gentle reminder:  - posts asking for monetary donations are speaking to people who *have* money. not your broke ass, still worrying about how to buy food for next month.  - posts asking you to care about [extreme injustice of the day] are speaking to people who HAVE energy to care. not you, hanging onto your sanity by the fingernails.  and, most importantly: posts telling you that you are horrible/cheap/awful/rude/unworthy/unlikable if you don't pay/reblog/signal boost/care? those posts can die in a fucking fire.  too long; didn't listen: posts asking for shit you are not physically or mentally able to give?  THOSE POSTS ARE NOT FOR YOU.
