 they brought the fall of their culture upon themselves by being fascists.
 
 It's their own damn fault. Now nobody gets apple pie, baseball, fireworks, and
 what they represent without feeling a little guilty or uncomfortable.

 if you aren't organized enough to protect your commanders, then you don't
 deserve leaders.
 
 build the structure first. build it on honesty and trust and dedication toward
 a goal. then build the necessary adaptations as you encounter problems, trying
 vaguely to head in a particular direction, and eventually you'll become
 self-sustaining.

 every value judgement is a "hell yeah!" from those who already agree with you
 and a "aw fuck off" from those who don't.
 
 this is probably either a good or a bad thing, who can say.
 
 if you don't take a stand, nobody will like you, but if you aren't careful,
 you'll poison your well of support.
 
 "why can't it be easy" because then it'd be done.

 They've already placed the last straw. It's only a matter of time now, the

 to waste yourself in self-conflageration, but they are increasingly forcing us
 to orient our lives around them.

 it's good to be ethical,
 it's good to be kind,
 
 but there will always be assholes,
 and sometimes you're not having a good time
 
 it's okay
 it's fine
 
 assholes deserve life
 times deserve others to be kind
 
 life is not always interesting
 and that's often by design
 
 the moments of clarity,
 the moments of heart,
 
 these are what define you
 and display your own spark.
 
 trust in yourself.
 be kind to one another.
 
 you are braver than you know,
 and always a bit wiser.

 what if all the AI advancements they're doing are just them building more
 hardware infrastructure in datacenters and not actually improving the software
 that much
wouldn't that be neat I think it would because it means once they collapse under the weight of their own ambitions that hardware's gotta go somewhere and knowing them they're probably going to ship it to south-east asia to be "recycled" (read: burnt with the metals salvaged) instead of selling them second hand because you know they can't really justify the business expense of selling stuff like that and besides what if some driver or something on the firmware was proprietary do you really want to pay techs to wipe every single thing off of them and plus who's gonna categorize and sort them according to their form and function that's just extra payroll and listen the company's not doing so hot anyway I mean we're literally shutting down but yeah sure we'll find a way to justify spending all that non-existent dosh so some hippies can feel better with their servers they didn't build or justify with their profit-producing capitalist enterprise that we've built with our own two hands well really the hands of everyone else but like, they're not actually doing the building the REAL work of course happens in board rooms like this one where we spend MINUTES and HOURS sometimes discussing how to get things in order and aligned to both of our goals because that's the REAL work that has to happen in order for stuff to get done, you know it's true yeah I thought so anyway what are you doing after this meeting wanna get lunch it's almost quitting time at 2pm

 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.

 how would you even hear of suburban conflict? nobody knows their neighbors.
 All you need is sufficient insulation, and you can start small and work
 through an entire population.
 
 just wait until everyone in an area is cleared for "disconnected from the
 larger whole" ness by the agents who are pretending to be their friends and
 neighbors and BOOM you got an enslaved god. works best if your raise them from
 the childhood, or the past distant memory.

 then go do some pushups

 then pitch a tent in the park
 
 then explain to the cops that you're not actually homeless and living there
 you're just trying to do this as a social statement because someone on the

 then use your phone call to call your representative and complain about how

 "doing too many drugs" is a traitorous act, abusive really, to your past self,

 you. What are you to aspire to if not the dreams of your past?
 
 and now you're here. wherever "here" is here...

 the last one at the end, to say "you were truly the strongest, here, have
 these precious stones of your kin"
 
 but he never got there, so they died with him, a thief.
 
 ... the end...
 
 (too final, I think - maybe we could spin it into a "part two"?)
 
 ah, I'll try I guess? dunno how. maybe he could wander the spirit world and
 find his traitorous body, the one that kept his soul as a home. Somewhere
 it'll turn up, and then he'll be ready and free from his roam...

 do you ever think about how calling the BLM events "protests" versus "riots"
 is a subtle dogwhistle for your politics? I usually say "riots" so that I
 blend in. also because I've been conditioned by the people who I talk to about
 them.

 "do you hear the people sing" is not the vibe of revolution in modern times.
 
 For us it is a message of kindness, that we might deliver us from the dark.
 
 People singing are easy marks. Don't turn your phone on at night. Fucking turn
 it off. Don't do barricades, don't do broken windows. We need the city in
 working order. We are no longer protesting, we are seizing control. We will
 guide us, trust in the reasonable and heartfelt.

 @user-147 years of practice. every time you delete what you said is another
 chance to practice that slips away. writing is the easy part, you got that
 down because you need something to delete, right? the hard part is being
 received by others, and continuing the conversation as you direct it.

 can't fucking wait to see how it happens. Today is the birth place of
 humanity, just as yesterday was, and the day before, and the day before...

 our will shall drive us onward. Let us rejoice, for tomorrow yet dawns!

 the value proposition of a political party is just as you described - we ask
 for shit, they tell us who can get it done.
 
 AND YET.
