to share it again to see if anyone wanted to talk about it so you could

the same or similar thing from a slightly different angle?

Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
collective mind co-re-assigns.

you feel like those actions are unjustified, and needing an explanation. which

the gods don't judge you based on the total number of "good" or "bad" points
that you get.
they judge you based on your character in your greatest and worst moments.
if you try to dodge or game this by never doing anything extreme and simply
existing in a medium state at all times, they will develop a moment of
reckoning for you and thus produce an opportunity to react and show your true
self. There is no escape from their judgement, so judge yourself kindly and

if you want to share a post without the "fedi algorithm" (as in, the machine
learning bots who scrape the open web) then share something that's simple and
benign but located close to your desired message. Include a symbol or
something for your followers that means "go here and poke around a bit, you'll
find what I'm pointing at"
alternatively, for a different effect, you can boost things that are saying
the words you want to say but in a different context. Like someone posts
something that says "wow so cool" in like a judgey way but you boost it in
response to something someone else said but like in a "dude that's radical"

I like to use the alt text to explain my color choices. I'll say "this next
text is in dark blue, the color of the cold glass-like surface of the ocean"
or "the orange background implies a feeling of warmth and serenity, contrasted
with the violet colors of the text which imply sanguine passion" (then I of
course describe the text)
basically, blind people can't see the image, so they don't get the feeling
that the visual data conveys for sighted people. But they understand the
texture of grass, or the feel of wind on their face, or the taste of
raspberries. They can know of staccato music, or how silk feels on their arm.
it just feels fair, to me, somehow. nobody asked me to do that but having the
option makes it feel important to me.

That happens a lot with online people. You can only see one side of them, the
side they present to the camera, and so it's difficult to find new ways of
looking at them. Hopefully you can find the brighter sides of this person! I'm
sure they exist, unless the person is spiralling. Then they'll often be
pushing themselves first one way, then the next, but both directions point
down... And that produces the ":(" feeling. Good luck!

Their numbers are not that much larger. We have many advantages they do not
possess. Use them to your advantage, but do not neglect the necessary losses.
Fight back with your fists if you must, but do try and fight back with your
purses.
We are all in this together, each child woman and man. We live on a planet
together, and they have forced us to fight for our very lives.
Our fates are calling. We will get stronger. We will overcome.
They are at their zenith. We can only get higher. Fight until the last day!
Today is the day to be inspired.

those billionaires are using their money as a weapon to "vote" toward what
companies they think capitalism would most grow from. Unfortunately for us,
they often aren't very efficient because they're only looking at what sells.
human interest is not the only factor to optimize for, and yet that's the only
one they're incentivized to.
kinda makes me think that the only reason to replace them would be to
institute something that could not be incentivized because it was more
objective or decentralized.

literally nobody has contributed to the one github repo I have
ever. I got like, one comment from some guy in China or Taiwan. It's been up
for like, 4 or 5 years and it's on my website. /shrug I guess most people
bounce off after reading the splash screen /shrug

sometimes the best way to understand why things are the way they are is to ask
why they aren't the way that seems logical to you.
usually someone will correct you and say "oh it's because X Y and Z" and you
say "cool" and change your direction
but sometimes their answers "unlock" part of your past understandings, thus
creating new questions.
Sorta like in a video game when you level up a certain building/research path/
milestone / whatever and it finishes a "tier", thus giving you a larger bonus.
??? yeah so anyway more questions are good because they give you more
perspectives on what's going on around you.

I think it'd be neat to have two tiers of follow lists - like, "close follow"
and "far follow" - the close one would have a cap of like, 70 people or so and
be primarily used for coordination or close friendships, while the far one
would be more like "I like this person and I want to see them on my main feed
because they make funny memes"
then they could be sorted into different sections, sorta like how you can have
"local timeline" and "federated timeline" and "home" and "instance timeline"
etc etc
sooooo weird how the "local" timeline doesn't show me people who live near me
in relative proportion to their distance from me. That'd be neat too, to have
the ability to talk about regional things in a specific place on a website
without losing the benefits from using a cohesive platform.

did you know that almost everyone could technically become competitive with
olympians? it's just a matter of single-minded focus and determination over
lifetimes of time. they are the most admirable because of that, and we cherish
their presence in our life-world-line.

I love the concept of this! Maybe if HTTP is too complex, you could try
another simpler server? I don't know the complexity of the programs I use
every day, but I'm sure there's one that's very simple. Even just a simple IRC
style chat server that just... sends text from person A to person B depending
on their username (like a glorified Router or Switch)
Reminded of this video tbh...:

If you counted the characters in each of my posts and then graphed them with
grafana or whatever
I think you'd see some interesting things about how often I am at exactly 0
characters remaining
maybe I'm just curious
I make it an art form

what if instead of federating social media instances we federated users instead
why not have an account on each and every mastodon instance? then just RSS
feeder yourself and boom suddenly you can customize your identity on each
fediverse house.
maybe with a checkbox of which instances you'd like to post to on your "submit
link or text post" button

how is that different than speaking your mind into the soup of opinions that
comprised checks notes the people you went to high school with? (facebook)
Except this time, it's a group of people whose opinions you vaguely agreed
with (as defined by your choice of the instance you dedicate your online
presence to) which has it's own defined peculiarities like the ability to only
show you content you agree with?

yep that's like... my whole strat
it totally works outside of the internet, because everyone online is
politically invested -.-
most everyone IRL is morally invested tho so they tend to follow what I'm
saying and if they can't find any issues, then they'll believe your
conclusions.
I've also found that speaking what you believe is more efficient than
highlighting contradictions in what they believe.

The next time you share a meal with family, or perhaps a game with a friend
online, or maybe even a coffee with a stranger, or a smile with a person
walking down the path, or maybe a church choir as you rejoice in unison - the
next time you do one of these things, define the path that your reality takes
through your actions. Compel yourself to have a good time, without ignoring
the input of those around you. Bring them to your level, and see what kind of
world "around you" becomes.

sometimes I decide against playing a Steam game because I don't want it to
jump to the top of my "recently played" list
Wish I could have like, a heatmap of when I played which game. I think that'd
be useful for the archival process of my life.
