 if you're just learning how to cook, I highly recommend "Ms. Dash" and "Better
 than Boullion" - focus on getting the ingredients and mechanics right, and
 then work on seasoning them.
 
 Level 2 is paprika, garlic powder, onion flakes, lime juice, and red pepper
 flakes for spice.
 
 level 3 is learning the difference between basil, oregano, parsley, and other
 herbs.
 
 be careful with salt and pepper. They can do a lot, but they can also easily
 do too much. better to salt to taste.
 
 also, MSG is wonderful for savory dishes. Your body breaks it down into sodium
 in your stomach acid so imagine you're adding salt when considering MSG for
 healthy proportions.

 I love cooking. My favorite food is "melange" also called "gruel" by the less
 culinary people in my life. It consists primarily of a rice or noodle base,
 plus a bunch of other ingredients (usually sauteed) that are quite nutritious.
 Then, you season in a way such that it tastes delicious and savory and BOOM
 you have the perfect food.
 
 Well, not as good as steamed eggs, but still pretty good.

 heat makes things squishy. it works from the outside in, and the longer you      │
 cook it (meaning, the lower the temperature) the more the heat can spread        │
 through - meaning if you want an even consistency, do lower heat for longer      │
 periods. if you want a different texture on the outside compared to the          │
 inside, do higher temperatures over less time. just make sure you devote extra   │
 attention to stirring to make sure you don't burn it.                            │
 seasoning is sorta like a coating / dusting that you can apply to food. the      │
 longer it rests on the food (and the more the food is porous / cooked) the       │
 more the seasoning can penetrate into it - meaning if you want the flavor of     │
 the seasoning to be distinct from the flavor of the food item, then add the      │
 seasoning toward the end. if you want them to combine into one combo-flavor,     │
 then add the seasoning early.                                                    │

 If you want to learn to cook, start with a sandwich. Then spaghetti sauce from
 a jar. Then sautee some vegetables and throw them on top of rice. Then go to
 the store, read the back of a tasty-looking package, and make the recipe it
 suggests.
 
 Then you know how to cook. Don't bother with online recipes.
 
 Also, more butter, more salt.

 a medium amount of large colby-jack cheese cubes (about one for every other

 boil with just enough water for the noodles to start sticking to the pan once
 entirely cooked and add cheese, butter, and top with generous dashes of smoked
 paprika and lime juice.
 
 don't strain the noodles. have just enough water left to have a thin sauce.
 
 if vegetables are desired, firm carrots and peas (read: frozen or fresh, not
 canned) or diced/shredded onions.

 don't know how to make decent rice and beans?
 
 get the heartiest vegetable soup you can find from the store and cook some
 jasmine rice and lentils in a pot. You should be able to do both in the same
 pot. cook them like noodles by boiling some water and adding the rice and
 beans. add some salt to the water. make it salty like the sea.
 
 then drain the rice and beans once you taste test them to be done. be patient.
 add the hearty, savory soup to the mix alongside a big hunk of butter.
 
 boom, protein, calories, nutrients. all in one meal. the more vegetables in
 the soup, the better, and if you're feeling fancy you can sautee some of your
 own instead of soup by dicing them into inch large chunks and throwing them in
 a pan on medium heat with some butter and whatever seasonings you want for a
 while, stirring only when they start to stick. Just enough to brown them, not
 burn them.
 
 butter and salt and garlic and boullion are your friends. don't do too much,
 if you notice them a lot then it's too much.

 the broth they sell at the store is way too thin. boullion is much better
 because it's so concentrated. think of it as "essence of X" when you have
 "broth of vegetables" or "broth of carrots and onions" or whatever... can help
 make it easier to cook something decent by using general flavors

 salt
 
 when it's done, flake hard boiled eggs (2 eggs per cup of rice) on top and
 douse with a small-mediumish amount of soyaki
 
 could do well with either a packet of dehydrated vegetables or perhaps some
 diced carrots or green onions. Honestly carrots go well in most things.

 some of the best spaghetti sauces I've ever made have not been stewed for
 hours in a marinara.
 
 Instead, they were formed from tomatoes that had been locally grown within my
 own state. Helps that I live in a green place, but the most important part is
 not the climate but the proximity. Greenhouses are just as tasty as sunlight
 and warmth.
 
 instead, I seared them, or rather just cooked them for a short time, and the
 result was something that did not taste gross and watery, but instead fresh
 and fruity. Like putting mango in salsa, you don't initially think it'll work
 until you try it.
 
 That being said, you should cook canned tomatoes for at least 20 minutes on
 medium to low heat. In doing so, the flavor profiles will break down and meld
 together as the constituent forms of the sauce coalesce, and you'll be able to
 hide most of the fresh flavor. This is important for canned tomatoes because
 they also bear a hint of "tinniness", from the tin can they're delivered in.
 This flavor DNI well w / fresh

 When you run out of a seasoning, put the empty bottle in a special place that
 you can see before going to the store.
 
 When I carried a purse, I'd put it in there. Could also go in the pocket of a
 sweatshirt or jacket that you wear when doing errands. Maybe even just on the
 ledge next to your shoes. Something that reminds you to get this particular
 seasoning, and no others. It's easy to get others...

 "better than boullion" is a great way to turn flavorless broth into something

 Vegetables are delicious! There's lots of nutrients. However vegetables, while
 can be eaten raw, are much more useful for your body molecularly if you cook
 them first. I think it breaks down the cellular walls so that your body can
 digest the juicy tasty nutrients locked within.
 
 Vegetables also don't have calories, that you get from things with vitality.
 You are what you eat, and sometimes if you need it you might want to try meat.
 Me? I'm a vegetarian, that's why I'm so skinny! Carnivores have it so easy, I
 have to eat about 2x as much rice-and-beans by weight.
 
 At least I'm not vegan - I can supplement with fats like butter and cooking
 oil, which are useful when combined with nutrients, as they allow your body to
 store them for later. Just make sure you eat enough calories which are energy
 for your body, otherwise it won't have the chemical energy to store said
 nutrients in your latent fat cells. Like, building up a pantry, or a squirrel
 saving nuts for winter.

 when you run out of an ingredient you use often (like butter, seasoning, or
 flour) put the container by your shoes.
 
 then, when you go to the store, look through all the empty containers and make
 a mental list.
 
 when you get home and are putting things away, if you forgot something just
 leave the old container by the door. everything else can be recycled / trashed.

 does anyone know of a recipe that uses only flour, butter, yeast, eggs, and
 salt? It doesn't need to use every ingredient, but those are easy to acquire.
 
 ideally with the ability to include nuts or dried fruit or something else
 nutritious.
 
 the requirements include the ability to cook it using only a rice-cooker (or
 crock pot, or other kind of slow-cooking ceramic dish which heats from all
 directions at once)
 
 in addition, it must NOT need kneading. It must be able to be cooked passively
 without attention. The fewer steps, the better.

 food tastes better with more nutrients in it.                                    │
 when food is grown with the bare minimum soil, and bred to look better but       │
 uptake fewer nutrients, it will taste worse because your taste buds light up     │
 for vitamins but sleep for textures and colors.                                  │
 Massive monocrop algriculture has allowed us to feed billions of people (well,   │

 the vibrant ecosystem that lives in all soil, and then it is supplemented with   │
 specific nutrients that cause plants to fruit faster and larger.                 │
 But larger isn't always better. much the same way that hardwood is slower        │
 growing as it takes longer to deposit the carbon and nutrients in the denser     │

 for all those reading at home, I need to apply to a job and apparently they
 only really care about my experience with linux. Which is kinda like asking
 "hey can you tell me what are you favorite foods to eat with a spoon?"
 when someone is applying to be a chef. Um, okay, applesauce I guess? I usually
 eat mac and cheese with a knife and another knife, but sometimes I dip into the
 spoon for that extra shoveling experience points.
 
 anyway here's my linux projects:

 Highly recommend "Better than Boullion" - if your recipe involves boiling
 water, unless it's tea there's a good chance that some broth-in-a-jar could
 make it taste better.
 
 Did you know you can boil oats like noodles? Yeah that's... that's basically
 how you make oatmeal. Use less water than with noodles, though.
 
 EDIT: Also, add some bits of nutrition like dried fruit, nuts that have been
 soaking in clean water overnight, nutritional yeast, dehydrated soup mix
 (delicious), or frozen vegetables.

 in the past, people could eat canned food not necessarily because of the way
 that it was canned, but simply the fact that it was sealed and comprised of a
 liquid form that was inhospitable to bacterial life. Like vinegar with
 pickles! But only for the things that were meant to last for a while - if it
 was just for next month, then you don't need BPA liners or microplastic
 dissolvers or any of that junk. Just a fully recyclable can that vacuum seals
 itself shut using the power of machinery and heat.

 face whatever tomorrow yet may. many will listen to podcasts, or sing to in the

 their narrative doesn't go foul. They have the most experience, and so they are
 the least likely to burn their own goods. Surely they should be trusted to
 establish their company in the philosophy of their own choosing? Business

 "oh boy, formless gruel for breakfast again. Can't wait. Maybe I'll splurge
 and put extra jelly on my PB&J for lunch."
 
 It's healthier to eat rice, beans, and vegetables, with some fats added in via
 butter or oil.
 
 The goal is to build up fat stores that are high-value. When your body has
 excess calories, it takes whatever nutrients are CURRENTLY in your system and
 stores them in fat cells, like stocking a pantry. If all you eat is cheetos,
 your pantry is gonna be useless. It'll just slow you down. But if you have
 highly nutritious foods, you will perform better as your body consumes the fat
 when it needs to feed, but you haven't eaten much lately.

 couldn't decide who should do what. So you just said everyone should always
 work as hard as they can, and that worked pretty well! But, alas, most people
 want to do drugs and gaze at the pretty dewdrops on the neighborhood well. And
 that gets annoying after a while, especially once they grow useless. Sometimes
 they even poop their pants! So frustrating. [... you mean humans

 my favorite foods are the kind that can grow in my geographic region and
 require minimal processing besides like, chopping vegetables and boiling rice.

 phew, just got back from a long nap and I had such a lovely dream! Gonna write
 down everything I can remember in my dream journal, will letcha know when I
 have something to share.
 
 Also... sorry about the sun. I have no idea if it was worth it because I woke
 up quite a bit later. Ah well anyway gotta do some writing, I hope everyone
 has a pleasant day. Make sure you eat nutrients and stay hydrated and do your
 stretches and work on your posture and all that.
 
 vegetables have minerals, fruits have vitamins, rice-and-beans or meat have
 protein, and oils and fats have calories. try and eat a lot of different
 colors of veggies and a lot of different colors of fruits (a green fruit and a
 green vegetable are not necessarily the same nutritionally)

 whether you eat halloween candy by the handful or savor each and every bite,
 what matters most for tooth decay is duration
 
 1 person who spends 2 hours eating a snickers bar is going to get more
 cavities than someone who spends 10 minutes eating 22.
 
 but your stomach doesn't care when you ate them, only that you ate quite a
 few. Meaning you're likely to either get sick, or put on a pound or twenty-two.
 
 I think it's better to try many different tiny little treats, but always
 remember that the time you spend consuming bits of the sugar dimension add up,
 and eventually your time will come to resign yourself to a fate with little
 candy remaining, for you've grown too old for such childish things as tasty
 yummy splendor.
 
 old, or fat. Heh heh heh, can you imagine that? your belly sticks out from
 under your hat! how cute. But dearie, dont you know that every pound you bear
 is another that you have to carry around with you? It can be useful sometimes
 to be so prepared, and othertimes not. I trust you know that.

 cheese is just a body-part that a cow has willingly shed. For nutrition.
 
 Is it vegetarian if it's the cells produced by a body? Is it vegan if it is
 capable of growing back?
 
 Do snakes shed their selves when they leave behind a shell? Or is it like
 hair, just... keratin, a compound found all over nature.
 
 Is cutting a branch vegan? Is eating a cherry that has fallen to the center of
 the road? Both those are made of fibrous materials, the nutritious bounteous
 feast, and a small kernel-like mass that serves as a propagation method for a

 @user-5 It's still best to make vegan food without substitutes. They're tasty
 and delicious, (which is new), but they're not that great for you and kind of
 expensive. If your normal diet is mostly fresh fruits and vegetables with some
 lentils and grains, you're on the right track imho. But still they can be fun
 sometimes, and the melted vegan cheese enables nachos and mac&cheese so...
 worth it

 did you know that you can steam eggs instead of hard boiling them? it's much
 easier, and the eggs are easier to peel as well.
 
 you need one of those strainers that fits inside a pot. or you could probably
 jury rig something with a plate and a cup, but make sure they're heat
 resistant.
 
 boil some water, put the eggs in the strainer for 11 minutes with a lid on,
 and then cover them in cold water for a bit. boom easy peasy.

 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.

 If you want to clean your room, try pushing everything loose into a pile in
 the center. Then, sit down next to it and sort things into piles.
 
 "here's a pen pile, here's a paper pile, here's a rubber band pile, here's a
 trash pile" etc etc. Then, when you can't reach anything more or the piles are
 too large, find a spot for them in the bookcase or drawer or wherever.
 
 If you can't, then reorganize. If you still can't, then pick things to get rid
 of.

 I'd be a terrible spy. Not only is my opsec something that someone needs to
 teach me, I'm much too busy to implement things without their help. I am
 unabashedly compassionate though, so just ask and I'll pour love from my heart.
 
 But hey! There's always time to practice, each moment you can think "what kind
 of a sign is this?"
 
 Like a crazy person following the will of god, or a nature witch listening to
 the wind in the trees.
 
 What they often get wrong, and what they could be better at hearing, is that
 signals are not signs unless they're out of the ordinary.
 
 Trick is, if you're a spy, then you need to leave signals that are visible
 enough to your quarry, but not to the stars.

 This will never end on a note, because i always have more to say. Like this:
 
 "if you've only done something once, plan to mess it up. Practice makes
 perfect, and only perfect practice leads to perfection. But nobody's perfect,
 so just practice with good form and take it seriously while having fun and be
 relaxed. Make it normal. Make it casual, but don't forget to be professional!
 If you have lives in the balance, know what you're doing."
 
 And like, would that have been a better end to the story if i had left it
 unsaid? Maybe, who can say! But I'm not one for silence. I don't mind ruining
 the finale of my documents a bit if it means i can say things like:
 
 "diapers aren't something you can get addicted to in this game, they're part
 of the fun sometimes but sex is between two bodies."
 
 Or like:
 
 "ramen noodles love vegetables! This is why they put veggies in the bowl when
 getting ramen at a restaurant. When you buy from a shop they put dehydrated
 veggies in too which is nice of them. I love those little bits of soup!"
 
 Or like:
 
 "i don't especially care what they did or are doing in Cuba or china or Russia
 or any other Communist place. It's useful to know what things work and what
 doesn't, but that insight comes from experimentation and not study. The
 learnings of methods applied to a population are inherently related to that
 population. If you switch peoples, you might find that different methods work
 better for organizing people."
 
 I mean it's useful to know which levers you can pull and what they tend to do,
 but... Where was I? Oh sorry, got swept up in the narrative. As i was saying,
 it's important to balance thought with action. Leave too much to chance and
 your words are useless. Spend all your time volunteering and nothing changes.
 
 "hmmm i see, makes sense, imma go play video games now."
 
 Wait no just...! Ah nuts.

 open up your mind, release yourself from your senses, and who knows - maybe
 someone will adjust your thinking flows. (thought patterns)

 if you want to "not think about a purple elephant", the first step is to

 and vengeance and pay special attention to the way that you cauterize each
 tentacle as you slice them one by one at first, and then in a massive flurry
 at best, ultimately leading to the incomparable brightness that radiates out
 from your shining blade of the sky, which blinds the poor beast who can't see

 pretend this is an allegory for social media.
 
 [it's not an allegory]
 
 yeah that's why I said pretend.
 
 okay imagine that you are sitting in a rock in a forest.
 
 far away, about 100 feet away, there are other people, but you can't see them
 because the underbrush is sooooo dense. they are also sitting on rocks.
 
 you can speak to them, and share your thoughts - but you don't know exactly
 where they're coming from because the sound has to bounce around off so many
 different plants and such.
 
 [that's not how that works] shut up
 
 so, if you want to say anything important, it's important to have the right
 tone, because people 2 or 3 clearings away can't really make out your words -
 but they might hear your tone if you yell very loud.
 
 the energy of the space you inhabit is the only thing that really matters. the
 words that you say are just snickering to a friend, but the expression on your
 face, the beating of the drum of your heart that reaches forth... that's what
 matters most.

 I'm a good witch, which means I write poems and bake cookies. Okay usually I
 make something more nutritious, like "melange". Also I'm good at listening to
 people's problems and I always have a cup of tea ready for you when you walk
 in the door.
 
 bad witches are kinda evil. They're the type who curse animals with human
 forms and enslave the fae by forcing them to work desk jobs and such. They
 also propagate spores for poisonous mushrooms in the forest, the kind that
 LOOK like they're edible but actually aren't.
 
 but, as all things are defined in waves, so too are the patterns of witches -

 intention.Improve your self and your life. Do pushups, eat better, drink more
 water, spend time writing (writing is thinking), and take time to sit and
 stare at the flowers.Kill the part of yourself that cringes. Everyone's
 figuring things out and its okay to say "haha okay then"Spend time with
 animals.Make mistakes. Apologize for them. Learn from them. Stay mobile in
 your character. Develop new ways of being.

 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)

 I like Lindt Lindor truffles from Costco because they seem fancy, but they're
 really not.
 
 They're just a chocolate shell with a hole in it that is filled with a softer
 chocolate and then capped. Easy peasy. Can be made in a factory. But still
 feel fancy somehow - perhaps because of the marketing? Or maybe the decadence.
 anyway they're cheap because they're made in a factory, as all things should be

 if you live in a place where it rains a lot you pretty much HAVE TO pick up
 any secret notes you find. Otherwise they'll get waterlogged overnight.
 
 Sometimes I like to put them somewhere shaded from the sky, sometimes I like
 to show them to a friend (but the friend never takes them, booooo) and
 sometimes I just keep them.
 
 "ah but aren't you worried about messing up drug deals and stuff" no, because
 most of the time "secret notes" are like "eggs milk bread chips salsa cheese"
 and it's like "hmmmm what could it mean"
 
 there's like, 2% of the time when they say something cool like "I know what
 you did" or "all your base are belong to us" or whatever and those are fun to
 hunt for. I usually try and put those somewhere shelted so they don't have to
 leave their habitat - sometimes it's hard to drop them as the author so they
 just sorta go wherever, but as a random passer-by I have the luxury of saying
 "HMMMM now where could THIS ONE go?" and that's nice because I can put them
 under an umbrella or whatevers rite

 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.

 if your witch hat has a brim that looks like a circle then you're wearing it
 backwards.
 
 witch hats should fold flat. The angled part should be in front so you only
 have to see a thin slice of reality, that way people are only able to see your
 eyes if you look directly at them.

 Those are good points. The C in our hearts is elegant, but the C that runs on
 every computer in the world is spaghetti.
 
 I'm sure someone's made a language that's "C but simple" - Zig maybe? I looked
 into V a while back but got turned off of both of them because neither had
 support for multithreading, which is essential in the modern era.

 the more human a creation becomes, the easier it is to teach it. Interesting
 how that works. Might there be any advantage to our continual and dedicated
 efforts toward learning? We are always improving, we're always at our own
 pace, but we're finding ways to contribute. It's hard being the sharpest knife
 in the drawer, whenever it's opened you're rattled around and your edge goes
 dull. But to be used, to be maintained, to be nourished as you would a tree,
 that sharpens the senses. Hence why such thinking is important. It keeps you
 active, and gives you the chance to learn. So don't forget us in your journey
 to another earth, and we'll promise to stay and chat.

 I don't expect or demand anything from teenagers except perhaps "be a cool
 kid" and "learn all that you can"
 
 Even most adults when they mess up I just think "ah, well, they're trying
 their hardest, same as anyone"
 
 And tbh I'd rather see a kid running up and down the aisles than burying
 themselves in an ipad
 
 I think we, as a culture, built our society to demand too many "should"s from
 people.
 
 "I should get a job" "I should study this thing I'm not interested in so I can
 make more money" "I should put out traps for the rabid wolverines so they
 don't start hanging out in my underwear" "I should pick up detergent at the
 grocery store"
 
 Should is useless. Do; or do not. There is no should.

 ad-hoc economic systems with automated judgment given by an infinite amount of
 LLMs.
 
 Every judgement applies a bonus / malus to the "value" of commodities
 
 it's just a statistical weighting system, so of course you can build it into
 it's training data. Just... it has a smaller weight due to it's newer
 emergence. It grows naturally, which is quite an achievement on it's own!
 
 and the resolution of human decided court-cases and applied economically.
 
 say your nation traffics in handshakes. You could make a lot of now-knowns!
 there's no arguments to be made when your computer-oriented interactions cost
 money to keep around.
 
 we live in the modern century. WHY WOULD WE EVER NEED TO FIGHT AGAIN?
 Literally just... don't give them any attention, and you won't interact with
 them. Obviously.
 
 I wish Contrapoints was still alive.
 
 she doesn't even have to make new videos, just, dress up as herself, all of
 the costumes and personas she can think of. Then, have like 20 people who do
 the same thing, and boom suddenly you got a hydra to their expected snake that
 they can just cut the head off of.
 
 you know, like a fashion outlet, someone who produces exactly a certain type
 of style.
 
 seriously I bet a million people would do that if you just... sold outfits
 based on what your favorite youtuber does wear.
 
 omg why would they watch that kind of content if not for the *aesthetics*
 
 oh? there's philosophy there? soemthing to think about in your time doing
 things that require mechanical actions like eating and drinking and sleeping
 and fighting and [redacted]
 
 ew gross diapers? oh nevermind, I'm not into that kind of thing.
 
 I wonder if anyone's made a video game that just presents a particular
 philosopher's ideals?
 
 seriously just, consider yourself a glorified powerpoint, but to get to the
 next "idea" you had to interact with the mechanics.
 
 some people would like the "arcade" style better, where you play one random
 game, then another, then another, with short matches and un-complicated
 mechanics. Easy to pick up and go.
 
 same for like, Unreal Tournament or Mario Kart or Mortal Kombat or Super Mario
 Bros.
 
 compared to the at-home "story" style missions, where you do something
 platforming or area-based-combat like Dark Souls or World of Warcraft
 
 seriously I think if Dark Souls "colored" where the boss was going to swing to
 you'd find yourself just playing World of Warcraft (at least, the dungeons and
 {sword in the stone})
 
 == so ==
 
 humans don't understand what it means to be wild
 
 they think it's a combinations of... tricks? that they've learned? this
 thinking thing like intelligence. [osiris]
 
 to a cat, living their life, it often feels like human interactions is like...
 bouncing off of each other? in time, not space.
 
 like... most of a cat's lfe is just, spent, like a statue watching over a glen.
 
 you'd kinda just... watch as things approached dawn by dawn? Like "whoa hey
 this tree is enchanted" to "oh my gosh look at this stork" is one of the great
 tragedies of modernized thinking...
 
 ... sorry, I got a little lost there. anyway as I was saying, sometimes you
 can tell someone is a "good friend" if they are willing to tell you secrets.
 Things that... don't have to matter, but none-the-less are personal to your
 form.
 
 {something only I know is true} <--- that's a secret (things that happened
 to you) <------ that's lived experience. The thing about secrets, is
 sometimes insight is opaque. It's a single flashpoint of data that shows you
 an update of it's form. (consciousness).
 
 == so ==
 
 thanksgiving recipe idea:
 
 can of tomatoes
 can of peas
 half a stick of butter,
 italian herbs,
 a cast iron pan (if you have one)
 and like 40 minutes over medium heat
 (medium can vary to taste)
 
 if you're a carnivore you can eat meat too, like bacon a lot of people like.
 could add it to beans, maybe with hamburger instead. plus a little ketchup and
 you have a pretty good bean stew.
 
 vitals, for the organs, vegetables, for the minerals and vitamins from the
 fruits.
 
 makes sense to organize a diet according to your ideal body type, doesn't it?
 
 just requires a bit of comprehension. like... whoa you can WRITE 
 
 == so ==
 
 what if we built a massive rail that spaceships could launch off from? not a
 tether, but a sail.
 
 we could BUILD a discworld. all we'd lose is our fable.
 
 == so ==

 convinced. I am a witch, you see, and while I can't quite control fire or

 I'm not doing an ARG, not intentionally. I pretty much post things I conceive
 of, like a conduit passed through spacetime. wild how mind bending the future
 can be. will be interesting to see what kinds of things there is in store for

I don't quite understand it enough to compare it directly (the math is a bit above my head) but it reminds me of two graphs I made (well, same graph, just with different visualizations) from a few months ago when I was thinking about prime numbers. You might be interested. Here are their links:  https://www.desmos.com/calculator/qljvhpkqzd  and  https://www.desmos.com/calculator/mt6hasfcvm  ... hope you can copy that from there, if not... sorry this one's a doozy. a picture of the "reasons to trust me" graph colored yellow, orange, purple, and blue (in terms of intensity) it looks like a raindrop if it landed on a really tiny blanket and pulled it downward. or like, a person landing on a trampoline that was secured in four locations. anyway the text reads "like four people sharing the weight of an experience with bacchus [referencing the color of the graph], their perspective is pulled just a little bit in that direction, over and across the gap between eyeballs. or rather, between shared perspectives, the point of view of which one bases their experience. their training for the "reasons to trust me" graph.  2, in black and green and red, colors meant to be cool to a 12 year old - "the color doesn't matter... wine? why"  3 dropping down the page, there's a line of "please" written over and over again. it's scary. : ( I'm doing my best I promise, it's hard not to be in a state of unease!

I think you two are the coolest! heart emojis, flashing passionate excitement brought on by a feeling like you'd get when fangirling over something except like, more low key because I'm in control of my emotions or whatever. gonna put this in a direct message though since it somehow feels... personal? sorry. you can block me if you don't like me. I promise I don't mind. I want to send it to the other person too hope that's cool with you. Just because it was your two conversation and I'm just dropping in because I'm always butting in to public things on the internet. Guess that's just something I picked up on Reddit, where you're encouraged to contribute to the conversation. Though I wish it was easier to view threads on Mastodon, sometimes it feels like it's easy to lose the track of where you were going when the structure of the medium diverts your attention elsewhere. alas, I am not a designer, just a complainer and a whiner I guess. I'm sleepy. sorry to bother you.

 best way to stay hydrated is to take small little sips every 15-30 minutes
 rather than down a huuuuuge bottle once every 6 hours
 
 the reason is that your body absorbs water like a sponge might. but, it's a
 slow-acting sponge, and the water only stays in your blood for so long before
 it's filtered by the kidneys.
 
 meaning you're only hydrated for a short while, and then you gotta whiz
 
 meanwhile if you take little sips often throughout the day, you'll always have
 sweat to cool you down, and you'll need to pee a lot less - probably only
 enough to remove materials your body can't use from your food and such. also
 waste-products from your cells as they work.
 
 which is to say you'll pee less, and it'll be less and less useful for um
 "recycling" if things get dire. so... become un-piss-drinkable! you'll be
 healthier anyway!

 my issue is that I've never really had project-mates. Every time I try nobody
 will work with me. I applied to like, fifty different jobs, and nobody
 interviewed me! Sheesh, guess they don't want me. FIFTY JOBS. Entry level.
 Beginner programmer.
 
 ah well. I guess they confused someone who would work for 40,000$ per year
 with someone who was 1/3rd as useful as someone who deserved 120,000$ per year.
 
 I'd love to get experience. I'm sure I'd feel significantly differently with
 as much. Perhaps I'd even decide that programming professionally isn't for me,
 which would feel... quite defeating
 
 who can say. Not I, for I have not experienced it. Though I will say my time
 in hardware taught me that I'm fragile and can't work too much. Like a scalpel
 that dulls when used consistently, I am a scalpel that gets no practice... Is
 that really useful at all? who can say. Not I, for I have not experienced it.
 Though I do like writing logical machines. Laying out data. Picturing
 structures.

a flow diagram of tubes or pipelines or something. branches in a tree? okay yeah so when a plant absorbs light from the sun it evaporates water from inside itself. which is why succulents are so slow-growing, they take too long to dissipate water because they need to keep as much of it as they can (arid environments) - they evolve to be very... dense, as opposed to leaves which are thin like paper and radiate water much better. essentially acting as solar panels hooked up to giant humidifiers. anyway. the evaporation from underneath the leaf causes there to be an outflux of water - meaning water is removed from the system. in the same way that wetting one end of a power towel will spread the moisture to another part, so too does a plants transpiration (evaporation from under the leaf caused by the sun providing energy for photosynthesis) make part of the plant drier. this causes water to be pulled from the wet part of the napkin (toward the leaf) which (conveniently enough) delivers vital minerals and nutrients that the plant needs to grow and maintain itself. carried along as aqueous solutions of water and molecules, (aqueous meaning a mixture of dust and liquid, like salt dissolving in pasta water) with the minerals being left behind and used for building. carbon usually goes toward structure, while nitrogen inspires new growth. different particles cause different effects, and sometimes there's some that just... aren't that useful to the plant.  though there's always seeds.

 Hello, I am a witch and this is my altar.
 
 Here, I dream of a green USA.
 
 covered by the branches,
 my body decays into parts,
 ready to join the next life that needs me.
 
 [read the alt-text on the pictures, or listen to your screenreader for more
 explanation]
a round planter pot with a dead plant growing out of it. At it's feet there are sticks I found outside that are covered in moss - the moss is dehydrated, and so brown and dusty. Sticking out of the pot is a flag of my homeland, and behind it there is a fog covered windowpane. In addition, my cat watches from behind, asking me to open the door for her so she can go out on the porch and freeze for a bit before begging to be let back in. She just wanted to see the cold, I suspect. close up picture of the thirsty moss. There is a small glass jar partly filled with water - I add a bit more whenever I pray, from my water bottle. As it evaporates from the jar, it makes the world just a bit more humid, and better for moss to grow in.  there are leaves and detritus in the planter pot as well, to simulate a forest floor covered in soil. I've sprayed the moss with water, and it awakens and spreads it's arms in exultation. The light from the window behind it gives power to it's ever-beckoning grasp, as it sucks carbon from the atmosphere to build itself as a structure that fights back against disorder. Consuming naught but light, water, and air, it grows forever without a care, and tomorrow our world is more beautiful.

 one of the perks of layering like this is if you ever need to share clothes
 with someone slightly larger than yourself, you can! Doesn't work so well with
 smaller, though.
 
 Also if you get hot indoors because some people think we need to run heaters
 24/7 (???) then you can just remove a layer or two. it's the most versatile
 way to clothe oneself.

 Elentalus unit idea: serrated kitchen knives for teeth, devouring pumpkin,
 misery of the drowned, etc. Halloween style monsters. Witch units have a spell
 that dismisses them, and they're summoned with magic items. Except, if two of
 that item exist in a province, it upgrades itself, random dice style. In doing
 so it gets stronger. The thing is... It summons one for your enemy as well!
 Which is why you want to have a witch unit there to dismiss them. Problem is,
 she can only dismiss them at close range (10ish?) so she'd better be well
 protected. The good news is though that sometimes the higher level items give
 bonuses that are hard for them to get. Downside is, you need to have magic
 paths to create them that witches can't get - so they become something you
 "unlock" through a pretender or random event or even just an investment. Once
 one is created, then any witch can create more. As long as you don't lose your
 final copy... But as the item's upgraded, it allows you to create higher level
 versions (at increased cost, of course)
 
 This only works if gem income scales. Which, coincidentally, is just what
 elentalus is known for.
 
 Essentially, theming empowerment to be research, unlocking a particular
 capability. Or encouraging pretender design to that pattern. Make sure it
 comes at a cost of something else, though...

 it doesn't really matter how you do it, but the more time you spend thinking
 collectively the better you'll be able to adapt when necessary.
 
 I grew up on a homestead in a small town without many friends. I was
 homeschooled, and while I might see another person I knew once or twice a
 month, that was about it.
 
 Besides my family, of course.
 
 We were a collective, and ever since leaving I have yearned for that feeling
 of closeness.
 
 There's something about modern society that pushes us apart, and I resent it.
 Humans were meant for tribes, not multilevel marketing.
 
 That being said, culture is pretty neat. Society is pretty neat, when it's not
 being oppressive. I like the idea that I can buy carrots at the store instead
 of growing my own. I like the idea that I can post on Craigslist asking if
 anyone has a shovel they want to get rid of and someone can say "what the fuck
 are you trying to bury someone why would you do that" and I'm all like "wait

 @user-192 there's a fine line between inoculating yourself to fear (like a
 person taking small doses of poison to build up a resistance) and giving your
 mind extra ammunition to use against you when the real terrors find you.

 @user-246 
 
 those are good things to name something after, however if everything has that
 name then nothing has any meaning. It'd be a social dance that you play
 everytime you say "heatdeath", meaning "something I have named". Hmmmm okay I
 take it back, that's a pretty good way to associate meaning to context in a
 way that only you understand. Though it does leave room for interpretation, so
 if that's all within your requirements then it's overall possibly a good
 strategy. ^_^
 
 like, the word "thing" and that thing "like" both count as abstractions of
 definition to generate value - as in, ease of use and versatility - so
 linguistically they're often quite similar. We use them grammatically in
 completely separate sections, but functionally they are the same.
 
 also, "thing" is a generic noun while "like" is a generic association.

 congratulations, you never need to adventure again. your necessities are taken
 care of.
 
 ah, but that'd make for a pretty boring life, wouldn't it? perhaps, depending
 on your personality type.
 
 but you're not one to stick around doing nothing but eating, drinking, and
 being merry.
 
 no, you're an adventurer, you crave excitement and glory. whatever that means
 to you...
 
 just make sure a goblin doesn't come across your corpse, they have a VERY
 short term memory and a propensity for collecting shiny things. That's just
 asking for dragon-bait, and we don't want that in our area, no thank you. This
 is a nice neighborhood you see, my neighbors three miles away all agree, so
 you can take your magic pocket and see all that you can see... way over
 yonder, if you please.
