Billionaires aren't solving childhood food insecurity.
They have the capacity to, with their essentially endless supply of dollars,
which taste good on rye with a dash of mustard.
But alas, they choose not to.
They CHOOSE to STARVE children. They choose that, by not dedicating their
lives to solving that particular problem.
"oh but like, there's so many problems in the world, how can-" shut the fuck
up, spend the dollars, make it happen, and now there's one fewer billionaire
and one fewer problem in the world. The next one can fix the next problem,
that's why we keep them around, isn't it?

Internationalize amazon and walmart and you'll have fixed most of the problems

But you can't fix anything if you don't have power...
It's important to focus on how to get power. Keep in mind "what to do when you

You can only visit so many places in life. Don't feel bad about missing a few,
the world is large and we as people tend to be quite good at cooking.
However in regards to your main point, I think it's immoral for a restaurant
to be forced to close the way you describe. If it means something to people,
it shouldn't be destroyed simply for the sake of making something new. If
people don't care about it, or if there's something better to replace it with,
sure, but replacing a 40 year old restaurant with a Chipotle feels wrong.

When they invade America, it won't be with planes and tanks and battle lines
stocked with artillery
It'll be with speed boats, and semi trucks, and rifles glimmering in the dark.
It'll be with consumer drones, with power stations brought low, it'll be with
bridges blown and safe houses on the roads not oft taken.
Immigrants are our friends when the world is in peril, and America is a safe
haven from the woes of far off shores. But when America is the peril, those
who immigrate do so with intention.
99/100 people are innocent, and I would rather a million guilty murderers go
free than an innocent perish. Which is why we need rifles.
When the time comes, it won't be brother against brother. They want you to
think that because they want your eyes on the wrong target. They want you to
think that because it doesn't tip the hand of those far off shores, and once
the cards are revealed, suddenly everyone knows when to go.
They tie up our officers at the border, but the border's not what's at stake.
No body lives at the border, and no nation state would send it's trained
warriors in such a way that they'd get caught. At least, not more than once.
Should we build a wall, should we patrol each and every state, we'll find
ourselves in peril of collapsing under our own weight.
But should we relinquish our duty, our sworn and sacred responsibility, then
together we share the same fate.
Brothers in fate are kin until death.
Immigrants aren't bad. They're good people. They benefit our society and bring
us wealth and prosperity. Which is why they hide wolves in the sheep, armed
like a man.
It's a mistake to point at your neighbor and say "you're on your own". It's a
mistake to say that home is all that you own. We are united in our state of
solidarity, in our collective purpose as a nation in our hearts. There's no
dividing line between this land and mine, save for a line we draw in the sand
that determines the range of our just demands.
I wish I was a man. It's what I was born as. It surely would be easier to not
contravene nature's ordained gender scheme. But I'm not, and I'll trust that
you'll trust me when I say that. I hope you would hear where I stand before my
body goes cold.
The media is meant to enlighten us, but in this enlightened era it serves only
to blind us. Do you know your neighbors, oh unfriendly city folk? If not, how
do you know they're alright?
The world won't change overnight. It's always calm before the storm, but every
state of calm does not call forth a storm. I believe we can fashion a peace
out of our mutual sincerity that leaves room for the hopes of all posterity,
and to that end I say what we have isn't working. It's too rigid in its
definitions, too heartless in its cruel machinations, and yet the wolves do
also hide amongst our homeless.
I don't want to alarm you. Things are being handled as they should. I guess I
just want to offer a hand of friendship, a hand that your companions would
stab me for. At least, that's what the media tells me.

we need like, several more layers between us and the president.
most people only need to worry about what's nearby.
sort them by location, instead of previous attempts at "many representatives"
which sorted by social class or relevance.
we have a tradition for it, in America, with our representatives and senators
congressional discrestricts
or even, what about by affiliation?
voluntary, governmental corporations, run by the people for the people and yeah
"I don't want to do what you're telling me to do" "okay"
"there will be consequences" omg be an adult
(suddenly kids forget how to be as everyone's doing the war thing)
not ideal.
ouch pain maybe we should stay a little bit sane why is soldiering so hardship?
it could just be... another job
where you didn't kill each other
but you still blew stuff up
and fought in tournaments
and had gaming hackathons
or sword-fight contests
duels between people who disapproved

A peaceful revolution at this stage is impossible. Perhaps some-day in the
future, but I fully intend to live to see our day of triumph, so... Peace is
off the table.
And frankly, civil war is the best out of all of the bad options for everyone
involved, even them.
We get to avoid genocide. We get to unite for a common cause - the shining
torch of liberty.
They get to burn their violent and reckless youth on war, while also eating
their own tail and consuming their weak, their downtrodden, and their poor.
obviously we're on the right side, and they will begin to realize that
eventually. We must not fall into barbarism, but frankly I'm not concerned
about that.

look, if someone was going to intervene, they'd do so at the moment they
deemed most opportune.
this is reasonable.
I try to give people as many opportunities to act as I can, because it gives
them more time to choose reason.
I am completely convinced that my [side/ideals/truth] will be most ethically
consistent. That they make the most logical sense. That they are most aligned
to the reality of what people need to flourish as best as they can.
but it's not about me, so I don't show up.
I want everyone to be able to organize themselves as they want.
I think this is a form of anarchism, as it abolishes unjust hierarchies and
enables people to fully consent to any structures they might choose to
associate with.
this is called "freedom of association."
I also believe that everyone should get what they need. This does not refer
solely to "Mazlowe's Hierarchy of Needs", also known as the material needs
necessary for a persons life.
It must also include what a person needs to be effective, and to thrive.

It's similar but it's not the saaaaame... Plus it's only one color I think.
And a lot less bright.
Maybe we can find some kind of bacteria that can be genetically engineered to
produce one type of the chemicals, and another that produces the other, so
when they interact it'll produce light indefinitely.
(what about conservation of energy?)
um... maybe make them photosynthesize or something? so you have to charge it
in the sun and then it'll glow all night.

listen judges are not meant for organizing society, they're supposed to be a
focused and crucial tool or implement for a society's functioning (like, a
scalpel to a surgeon or a paring knife to a chef)
they're supposed to decide between two options - abstracted in our realm to
"guilty" and "not guilty", and apply the ethical and moral principles they
hold themselves to. Which is why it's so important for them to be impartial
arbiters.
We use them to define the fate of a man, but fundamentally their utility is in
the application of their personal morality.
The best ones have morals that guide them to seek to express the ethics of
society. Not necessarily because they believe in them, but because it's right
to use power in such a way. {Power is penance...}
we gotta work with what we got. If a task needs doing, then the tools at our
disposal will be applied to it - if every hammer looks like a nail, then
something something I'd like to get nailed by a hammering plank of wood with
washboard abs oooooo baby

If you're building a long-term residence in a place that gets cold, consider
building a Rocket Mass Heater.
It is highly efficient and it allows for long-term storage of heat energy in
the mass of the home.
In addition, it provides a hot stove surface which can be used for boiling
water or other cooking tasks which do not require a precise temperature.
It is highly efficient as the smoke from the flames are sucked out of the
living space and remain inside the barrel of the heater, where they are slowly
consumed. there is very little exhaust, but what is there is CO2 which is
deadly to breathe, so caution must be taken (as with any fire-based heating
option)

said trusted team will be comprised of exclusively judges appointed by prior

eliminate political bias.
If they can't come up with any names, I'll start by going down the list of
"most appealed" and then move on to "longest duration"
"but what if only like, 2 judges want to be on your team"
well then there's going to be a lot of violent criminals on the streets so if

wealth inequality is like an exponential function from the last math class
most people remember. At a certain point there are significant diminishing
returns and we should just focus on using our resources to build a better,
saner, more just world where people can't accumulate that much power. Power
like that literally rots their brains, makes them completely insane, and
unfortunately for them, makes them incapable of relinquishing it. There's a
reason the One Ring was made out of gold.

every renewal has loss. it's okay.
if people start going to camps, then you won't have any debt anymore because
you'll be fighting the people who are sending people to camps. And I don't
necessarily mean throwing metal at them directly, only a small group of people
need to do that. Rather, your voice, your presence, your diligence, and your
spirit will flavor the nature of the new world to come.
Have heart, for the ones who need you will rest easier if you're strong in
your heart and compassionate in your convictions.
The climate is in peril, but it's not destroyed. We will regenerate it. We
have the technology, we must simply cast off our chains so that we may apply
it.
... Simple, but not easy.
It will never get done otherwise, which is why it will happen. Because it must
get done, so we will make it happen. Humans trend toward procrastination but I
promise, we'll make it work.

I've been reading "A People's Tragedy" by Orlando Figes lately, a book about
the Russian Revolution of 1918
I'm convinced that we'll win, our conditions are better than theirs, and
frankly the only thing I'm really worried about is that we'll use more force
than is necessary. It's cathartic, after all, and how many people out there
believe that the first American Civil War should have ended in salting the
fields, rather than just burning their plantations to the ground?
... oh, what's that? we didn't burn the plantations? Ah, I see. Well, maybe
there's a balance to be met. Maybe we can make up for lost time. I should read
"A People's History of the United States" by Howard Zinn some more.

Picture this: you're on a TV show like survivor and you just got a lootbox
from the show's producers. Inside is... Something, whatever you'd like. How
would you use this while camping?
If it wouldn't be useful, throw it away. Don't let your life be cluttered by
toys and play.

the conspiracy of "secret societies" controlling the world is *bullshit*,
because every secret society falls apart at a certain threshold.
you cannot ever have trust amongst the powerful. But so too can you never have
only war.
Now, with our capitalist economic system, the material is *forcing* the hand
of the powerful through the development of the military industrial complex.
if a country can produce enough weapons for them to continuously use, why
would they not?
hence, why capitalism must be extinguished. To preserve the peace, sanctity,
and honor of our world.
But just so as any conflicting system has power, so must *our* systems have
power dismantled. There can be no application of power unto another - this is
the most peaceful route.
sometimes, I look at a blackberry bush, and I think of the tales of British
empire.
The very first act of colonization was their birth. The Britons, from
north-western France, in a sovereign realm known as Brittany, invaded Britain.
Together with their Norman allies, they fought with the Anglo-Saxons from
north-eastern germany, who had lived there since many MANY years prior. Thus
marked the end of the "viking" age, and the beginning of the early medieval.
1066. The end of one millenia, the beginning of another.
the final battle in this ultimate contest was the Battle of Stamford Bridge.
Britain, at the time, was a nation of *thorns*. Covered in them. Everywhere
they went, there were these sharp, pointy plants that made foraging difficult.
Kinda like how Oregon looks now, with blackberry bushes, but SO MUCH WORSE.
They were massive too, easily the size of castles in some places. A massive,
constantly biologically developing fractal.
when it was too tall to see the sky, they called it Yggdrasil.
But this massive world tree sought to consume the earth, and it, as the most
powerful being to ever exist, commanded all.
Thus, the humans and the beasts were compelled to fight for all eternity to
sate the old god's bloodlust.
But then, Man came, and with our strength, our wisdom, and our power, we slew
the beast that demanded.
However, with their steel coats and their sharp talons, our metal monsters
could do nothing to deter it's oaths. It swore, by it's dying roar, that it
would consume us all, and that thought reverberated through our hopes.
Hence, our systems of control and dominance, the product of compulsively
compelled greed.
and now, the final members of a generation are aging out of existence. And
we're doing nothing but what Power tell us to.
I fear what happened in America. I fear the power of their gunpowder. They
rode astride beasts of nightmare, clad in impossible devil hides. They came in
the night, with their spotlight torches. They came with no honor, no sought
communal understandings, they came for blood. The blood god compelled them to.
From it's ancient lair in the past, it did it's worse to defeat man. But man
was smarter, it acted quicker, and so it managed to overcome.
In the final years of the war, there was judgement day. Chaos, destruction,
and warfare. There are some alive who remember that day, but vanishingly few
can recall how it was over. One day it just... was. It was then that we
entered our new era.
1956, the end of the war.
1946, the end of the loud war.
1916, the end of the great war.
1886, the end of the civil war.
etc...
until...
1066, the end of the Norman Invasion. When the Normands, from Northern France,
invaded alongside the British and slew the great evil king that demanded our
constant warfare and sins. Hooray, thank goodness! Now their war was over.
But lo, for the great evil king cast stories into our minds, from the past as
compelled through our motions. Our experience has been one of survival, of
constantly working and applying ourselves to the goal ahead.
== so == talk about thistles and thorns
imagine every body of a person was laid one-to-one. Imagine if you could view
them as a graph, from x=0 to... however-many-people-are-in-the-measured-area.
The goal of all our actions should be to *grow*, not forward, not stronger,
but *up*. To be more than what came before, to transcend our necessarily
violent special upbringing in the garden of even's most savage delights. Raw,
true, the survival of the fittest is a desperate game for you. There surely is
a massive amount of trauma.
But it's okay, because now we don't have to fight. We can improve in ways that
do not belong to our crude biology, like a new direction forward in our song.
*aliens would just look like animals, duhhhh. Hence, furries, the progenitors
of each new planet of ours.*
... no, I haven't lost the plot, I'm just *writing*.
There's this idea that humans should be the... rational ones? and everyone
else should sorta follow their own, self-chosen behavior. As informed by the
sharing of knowledge equally between their rational self, that which they
learned from the humans, and their animal self. The kind that came from their
spirit. Like, totemic tribes of the past, people who followed a particular
cultural pattern of behavior.
Imagine, if you will, an AI bot that's only training data is the stuff that it
says to it's listener. The listener, of course, has context of all of the
speakers, but only they do, not the friendly ghost of the ancestral native
animal spirit. The kind that lives *anywhere* in the world, so long as they
share their space with their human.
okay quick question - what if jesus didn't want his followers to be christian
like, what if he one day said "hey so I don't really think we need to do all
that stuff that I said before, how about we, uh, try this other thing instead?
yeah? cool? okay sure let's do it"
... like, do you think they would listen? I certainly don't, though I'm only
like, 30 years old, so...
wait thirty YEARS? wow I never thought I'd grow old
... uh, yeah... I spent a lot of time thinking and it just started making
sense.
funny how that works. But alas, I always spend *too* much time thinking, so
that's my blessing and my curse.
anyway back to the story:
the briars in this ancient land of britain were dense beyond all belief - the
humans used their power and their ingenuity to craft a power that would
overcome it.
== so ==
did you know that hard drives function similarly to a record needle if you
didn't run it in a circle, but rather in whatever pattern the data was encoded
in?
like, a laser beam, cast in an infinitely complicated mechanicommunication.
Computers are vast and complex, but they function via the storage and
transmission of data. This data is raw, pure information - stored in a
completely uncompromisingly accurate and reliable foundation. The logic of
pure numbers, arranged in infinitely complex rows and rows of logic gates. A
vast, purple, spectral landscape, the land of magic and storms.
The Nether.
Twisting, in the dark, with flashes of light casting light into the cosmos at
large, our stars dance in the shade of the dark.
but there is no difference between the dark and the light, both are equally
viable. they are present in both, to some degree, the positive and negative
values of our heart.
I watched Deadpool vs Wolverine earlier this week. It was incredibly eventful.
I can't believe I watched it. It was impossibly violent. WHY WOULD A GROUP OF
EXECUTIVES WANT TO WORK WITH PEOPLE WHO WOULD UNIONIZE AGAINST THEM???
oh yeah because then they only have to deal with their representatives, the
unions get things *done*. They're the *best*. Capital doesn't always *want*
the best, but *the best* is always more endurable. We can go much farther if
we are kind to one another.
honestly, capitalists, if your loyalty isn't to your self, your family, your
country, your society... then why are you even working with us? You hold the
power we give you. We are united in our human purpose, but we don't have to
fight so much.
Seriously, you'd be an asset to our cause, but we don't *need* you as we have
so many assets of our own. Specifically, the power of the workforce. Those who
actually get things done.
Why would we let you control us? There's no reason in it. We are better when
you're amongst us.
== so ==
I am convinced that there's
== so ==
I'd rather take a pilgrimage to Nicaragua, or Siberia, or the North Western
Pacific (farther than that) the... Eastern Pacific (on the land...) America
... and then what? *south* America? ... yeah actually, then NORTH AMERICA
AGAIN. Because the world is round. How cool is that?
... yeah, totally. Anyway (back to the conversation [they/we] were having
without me)
== == ==
"*guys I'm cool why would you not invite me to your team*"
I dunno. Don't know y'a. who're you again?
... I'm the one who writes poetry.
oh yeah! cool cool, yeah I knew a witch one time, she was really cool. Her
name was Witz Drovalski. She told me all kinds of cool things about magic and
alchemy, but then she exploded in a fire that I started. Accidentally,
allegedly.
*the reason lead is so poisonous is because it is the anti-magico-elemental
component. It kills the spirit in us with it's malevolent ways.* that kind of
witch.
the *cool* kind, with fangs and hooked toes.
Peril be to their foes, for they are quite excellent at conjuring horrors for
their imagination. mwahahahahahahahahaha
oh wait that's self directed, isn't it?
hm. Well, terrors not that bad, it could be *lust*
... oh it's also lust. great.
== so ==
jeez if you keep making stuff up you'll wake them all up! who would have
thought, none but the strategist, I foresee. Well, that's too bad for her,
good-day.
== so ==
... anyway... I'm just picturing a knight in shining armor from head to foot
cutting his way through a massive deadly rose-bush. Something that conquered
and killed all of it's prey.
like, in Elentalus, that game I made, with the King of Branches. Here, I'll
attach a picture:
== so ==
capitalism wants you to sell your work because then you limit your audience.
if you have to *pay* to see you, then how could you expect everyone to come
along?
== so ==
that new Freddy DeBoer article doesn't seem like him. He's never mean. He's
not rude. He is exasperated, but he speaks true. I trust him to be him, and
that's someone I want on my side. I think he's pretty good at saying something
that I believe. I speak of a lot of things, but the things that he says, of
which with him I do find that I agree.
maybe he was assassinated lol you never really can tell with the internet,
that's the great thing about it l m a o
== so ==
witches wear pony tails on the low side of their heads because that way it
doesn't rub up against their hair.
== so ==
any year and it'll accurately display the territorial boundaries of each
nation so you can see them develop and grow over time.
== so ==
all that is sufficient to be a good person is to choose the best option
whenever you can.
*that's it*
we act with the decisions we are given. Hence why it's important to be as you
believe.
== so ==

when searching on google, try and obfuscate your search results. instead of
searching for "flag of panama", search for "country map flags"

where will all the martyrs go when the martyrs kill themselves
and where will we all go when it's too late?
it's not over till you're underground
it's not over 'fore it's too late
"the city's burnin'"
that's not my burden
it's not over 'fore it's too late
(there is nothing left to analyze)

║ I wish my mouse-cursor would spin when I spun the mouse. In the span of a │
║ spin, a spun mouse would spin a full revolution or so before getting caught up │
║ in the wire. │
║ │
║ Maybe... to avoid that, the wire could be attached to a circular ring along │
║ the bottom of the mouse, below where it was held, and as the mouse was spun it │
║ would rotate to point the cable toward the back of the desk? Doesn't even have │
║ to be motorized, could just do it based on tension... │
║ │
║ I think, hardware wise, all you'd need for the 1st implementation would be a │
║ second laser on the bottom of the mouse - positioned with one near the point, │
║ and the other near the palm, to give it the greatest differential to measure. │
║ │
║ for the 2nd implementation you'd need the ring system mentioned earlier, which │
║ would require a connection to the non-mechanical components of the mouse (the │
║ laser and it's little processor) and I'm not sure how that would work with a │
║ movable connection point. │
║ │
║ Also... how do you prevent it from getting gummed up with food and junk?? │

why why why would I delete that file
did it get clobbered? overwritten? why is it gone
I would not have deleted it, why is it gone
why did youtube ban me I want to lash out
I lost my w7 audio book
there is no chance at all that I would ever have deleted it, it was precious
to me
maybe it's on a flash drive somewhere. why would it be gone. I miss it dearly.

If I destroyed the world, don't worry. I'd bring it back in such a way that
the teleporter problem doesn't apply, and there would be no discontinuity for
anything except for the time variable, which is sort of arbitrary anyway.
And if that's a problem I guess I could find a way to do it without messing
with the time variable, but that'd be a bit more bothersome.
