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.

If you have numbers, envelop your foes.
If you are elite, pierce to their heart.
If you only have numbers, give your commanders bodyguards.
If you only have elite, become undiscoverable.
EDIT:
If you are fast, hit from the side.
if you are only fast, keep them just out of sight.
If you are strong, deal crushing blows
if you are only strong, you no longer have any foes.

If a kid wanted to drink alcohol all they'd have to do is walk into a liquor
store and grab the first bottle they saw. Then book it. Their feet would carry
them away faster than your call to 911 to report a shoplift, away to a future
of sorrow. Should we seek to restrain them? Or should we make a world they do
not desire to escape?
Trick question, the structure of society cannot prevent non-compliance. It
should not, for if it shall then it becomes ossified, and thus it cracks and

I'd say "content warning: fear-cursed-if-true-not-politics" that way people
who had "Fear" or "cursed" on their filter list wouldn't see it. Things that
are commonly content-warning'd are also commonly content-filtered by people
who tend to be the biggest beneficiaries of healthily designed
content-warnings. so putting keywords in there that filter out people who
don't want to see intense or damaging things to their psyche can avoid it more
easily.

this comic, except instead of "trans enough" it should say "good enough"
a poor plan executed at the right time, in the right place is better than a
great plan that sits in your heart as you see someone who needs your love in
pain.
sometimes the best way to figure out "what the fuck is wrong with me" is to
satisfy your emotional needs to be good by being helpful, even if you're not
quite sure what "helpful" means. It's the thought that counts.
Personally I think that if you're feeling bad and people offer you kindness,
you should take that kindness (in whatever form it be) and use it to bolster
yourself as you're "really going through it". Even just a touch of affection
like a like or a ❤️ can be comforting in awful situations.

I know you don't want to hear this, but there is a chance that there will come
a time where your life depends on your ability to debug a computer without the
internet. To set up an SSH server. To install Linux. To program in C. To do
something else that I'm not prepared for... If StackOverflow didn't exist
because network connectivity has been lost, could you remember syntax? Maybe
it's a good idea to set up a local LLM that can answer basic questions about
technology. Maybe it's a good idea to set up on your parents computer, just in
case you have to hide out there for a couple months. Maybe it's a good idea to
download wikipedia, just in case.

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.

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.

if you work too fast, your ideas will run out and you'll be drawn elsewhere.
It's not a tragedy, it's the finishing of the project. Relish it, and learn
what you can before springing in a new directory, full of vigor and ready for
a new thought.

me to my cat: "don't eat so much that you puke, okay?"
me to me: "yeah I can take on another task, I'm almost done with this one and
then I'll just do that one and maybe this one'll get back to me at the same
time as this one which conflicts with this other thing so maybe I'll just
puke, okay?"

by making such choices, one by one as they engage with content, they're
necessarily sorting themselves out in their thoughts (in addition to sorting
themselves into categories)
they say writing is thinking, but I think "choosing" the most interesting is
thinking too. Sorta like... deciding, how and what you believe about...
whatever thing is shown on your screen.
so, when you show the most polarizing options the user gets to clarify about
how they want to see things when engaging with the software.
I don't know how useful that would be... /shrug

You care too much about what other people think of you. Remember the dream,
remember the horseflesh, the miles of trash, the doctors probing cheeks, the
game of thrown baseballs and sad muppets in popcorn, remember the spirit
guide, remember how you we're distracted by human. Be not afraid, follow.

I legitimately think computers should write code and software engineers should
write legislation and lawyers should resolve problem tickets made by aggrieved
citizens while judges do their best to just keep the boat floating

the witch inside me hears they're sending 200 troops to my city and she's like
"two HUNDRED SOLDIERS?" and freaks tf out because fighting two hundred men
meant a lot more back in her day.
it's still pretty hardcore but it's not the death stroke she thinks it is.

Coding superpower:
Start thread
While(true):
Run();
Then, whenever you want it to run something else, change the function pointer
that run() uses to call a function
At the end of the run() function, set the function pointer in the while loop
to the next one. That way you don't stack overflow from the recursion.

hey. wanna know what would be really cursed?
--
if trump dropped out and musk took his place
--
good thing it'll never happen because those dinguses can't accept defeat and
will never tactically retreat
--
maybe something to keep in mind for 4 years from now. eyes on the prize for
now means our eyes aren't to our flanks.
what else could they do that would come out of left field?

To defeat community, all they have to do is get you to have more fun with
their people until you start spending time away from the enmeshed people who
know you. Honeypot style.

EDIT from much later: I wanted to add that being interrupted is great because
it means that my characters can be deleted by a power outage or internet
breakage or inter-system intentional delete-age, or even just forgetting to
save before turning off my computer... fate will hide the words I'm not meant
to say.
