14. if you think about it, the shape of the universe is kinda like a cornucopia. or like, a funnel that smoothly increases in size. or like a waterslide ride where you spin around a bit before dropping down the center. sometimes affectionately referred to as "the toilet ride", even though that's just the wrong connotation.  we could have perfectly sanitary theme parks, we just... don't... because our priorities are on selling stereos and stocks.  anyway, there's several purple lines, the color of blending blue and red, both colors present in america, cast upon the gray background of the undecideds, collectively engaged in a mutual exchange. there is a blue upside down silly snake, this time with bright red aviators, and beside it is a scarring wound. some break in reality that is unfortunate, but part of their interdisciplinaries, so don't worry one bit about it. life may seem far from strange, but your lifetimes of finite portrayals and fanciful adaptations to the expressions of your own emanations both confirm and delight our attentions on you. Surely you are not aware, of our love and perspective [fair], but we still love you from afar. how could a star not cherish another star? It's time that's our only moat.  the reason the universe appears empty of life is because it's impossible to travel under the blanket of spacetime. through gravity, up and under our shared reality, out and beyond to another.  rockets pierce reality, which they didn't expect L O L who would have tht 16 I think? don't really remember the last one. anyway bright green background with a quite interesting transition fabric display - something textured and rippled, like the connections between a torn piece of paper that's been stitched together bit by bit with a careful and measured hand. the text reads "neocities sites just need to be attached to an address, and given a useful search browser that uses openstreetmaps." this is displayed on a background of brown orange and yellow, while the text is written in salmon. the result is the text (which overflows onto both backgrounds) is equidistant from both background colors, just in different directions. We know instinctively that purple and blue are similar, but a blind person might not. these words are given a framing as if they were placed in a 3d game engine upon a poster or billboard.  in dark blue upon the bright green background, blue the color of calm rationality and green the color of aliens from old timey media who live on the moon. well, the ones who just want to chill and have a beer with you, maybe listen to your stories about life in the strange world called humanity, but not the kind that they tell us about. like, it's really hard to get here, so why would they want to mess it up when they got here? such a strange thought. anyway the text reads: "openstreetmaps is a website that lets you view the addressess of people who live nearby you. why you'd want them, who can say. the point is that the functionality already 13. here's where it starts to get spicy, and I apologize if it's too extreme, but words come forth *from* me, not by my perceived designs pronounced deh zeens.  top left - yellow, the color of sunflowers and familiarly painted houses, cast upon a strange pink background - pink the color of sisters and bubblegum. yellow lines draw a shape, of which it's perspective is hard to configure - but most would consider it to be the shape of a mobile, hanging above a crib, with a kite shaped object (or perhaps multiple individual artifacts) suspended above a target. could be an object, or possibly a human subject, but the end result is that the maximized rays of the individualized emanations of that particular pieces of object, cast forth onto a pre-programmed piece of toast.  ... I don't know why I said toast, what I mean was that you can enchant people and things by exposing them to the wavelength waves of radiating objects. things like, marcelline's t-shirt or excalibur or the shroud of turin or the constitution or some other precious object. if you place them in orbit around an object, their expressions will send forth to fulfill their manifestations upon the willfully absorbing object.  have you ever wondered why objects tend to congregate? like, computers flock to server mills, trash piles to landfills, and people will wander the length of the beach. all things are gravitic, function, type, characteristic, motivations, empathic feelings, all congregate around one another. 0 codes 15. picture of an upside-down triforce placed in a rack like a computer storage unit. cyan text with pink background reads "this is the only thing that challenges me"

12. the text continues from the previous page and reads "if it's been ten or more years since they moved in, the site gets rebuilt. [wait, hang on, weren't we talking about html websites? when did houses come into the discussion?]  ... wait, what was I saying? Oh yeah the text is on a gray background, as interrupting as a scythe, with a yellow backdrop as if to represent sheer white-hot flame except not white the color of all colors but fire the color of all flames. the text reads "prince of the nehalim" in bright pinking blue, as in something completely foreign and unknown to you, and continues on to read in red "so many opportunities" as if life hadn't absconded, but instead of severed instead. "parabolas persist" in the flavor of blue, the color of space in a non-light polluted view.  "live life like you're merry, as do but a few."  do you want to make people feel better? or do you just want to make them confused? Neither, really, I'm trying to tell the truth. I'm seriously just struggling to find a way to express things that others clearly seem to be forgetting - I'm not an expert in other stuff! This is literally all I'm good at! Is it valuable? Maybe not to you, but I think it could be useful, or else I would covet it and leave it in disuse.  it's time is relevant, it's words fit into a context, so if you misunderstand it's past then it's probably because you don't have the records or the ability to process them of the time in which it was posted. What if things were de 10 ten. blue text on a blue background, as a calming and soothing influence, saying "it's okay, don't freak out, just think about learning lessons about stuff that *could* go wrong and think about how you'd counter it. just like any video game, there's a strategy to defeat any other strategy. the careful application of said strategy while using or applying your own capabilities is directly correlated to the conclusions of the task." meanwhile the listener is like "what the fuck" wait shit hang on lemme add a content warning:  right so the text reads "if you want your neighbors to know something, don't post it on the internet - put it on a post-it on the wall in a public place" like, your front door, or maybe the entrance to your building, or the parking garage near the mall, or maybe the grocery store, on a product behind the one in front. that kind of thing.  depending on who you want to see it, of course... people used to do this with library books but stopped because it's quite obviously a bad and rude thing to do, books are for record keeping of the status of humanity, through each and every one of it's forms. It's weird that they all have the same stuff, because they're designed for capitalism right? Why not share them based on availability, and keep as many different types of things as possible?  when nobody cares for them, how will we remember the countless books nobody reads? How will we understand that step in developing our culture if we don't have access to the con 9. the text begins to diverge at this point, on the left it reads "it's easy if you want some privacy, - all you have to do" and then is cut off by the introduction of red text on a green background, to evoke similar colors as the original thing it was interrupting but it's own thing nonetheless, and existing off to the side in tandem, so that conditions could not remain unaddressed. the text reads "they were betting on selling us space flight [with spaceflight sliding from one side to the other, like a rocket escaping the gravitic pull of the planet it surrounded] but we cared more for food and water" the second part, after spaceflight about food and water, is intruding onto the yellow's background, which was next, to represent a continuation of the previous thought about websites and HTML. it's frustrating for the next text, which is in purple, a confused and disoriented color. it continues from the original thought "is delete the website! Boom, no more html. but if they were listed (neocities sites on a map of the region" but map is emphasized with a different color, green the color of the land, and "region" is pronounced like "realm" or perhaps "ground" or even "directions" or "land beyond the horizon (if it even exists)") 11. I think. orange text on a green blue background, same background as the previous three pictures. orange text which contrasts in a way that almost calls back to the 80s, but not quite. a little too dirty, like the blue and orange decorations around highways in New Mexico. car smoke and tire dust'll do that, and it's not like it's easy to clean - right next to the freeway, c'mon! Wouldn't it be nice if we shut it down for a day or two? Unless you had very important business, solely self-suggested. if too many people used it on those days (when they were cleaning it) then they're supposed to follow through and identify if their need was too great or if they were just being an asshole about it because their bosses forced them to. basically like, family emergencies gets a lane, things that are crucial to a social event like no beer at a frat party or whatever, heck even if the girl you like really wanted to get laid. whatever the heck it is, if you deem it an emergency then that's fine. you can drive while the highway is being cleaned. just make sure you don't slip on the suds...  ... a while later, humanity realized they could just close one direction at a time and clean the next one next time.  what was I saying? Oh yeah the text! Here's what it reads: "every year, replace five percent [but read as %] of the homes and boom you're good - maybe even do 10% if things are going well - either way, as time goes on people can live in a house as long as they want - but when they mov

 some people prepare for revolution like a boy gets ready for a party
 
 others do so like a girl packing for a weekend trip to vegas
 
 I do it like a kid who forgot the paper was due on monday in 7th period and so
 spends their entire lunch period writing it (missing 4th in the process
 because the conclusion paragraph was giving me difficulty)
 
 but I think no matter how you do it, we're all just waiting for something to
 happen.

 someone once told me that anything with a battery is a bomb if you hit it with
 just the right kind of radiation. or maybe he said 5g waves or electromagnetic
 pulse or... actually he didn't say at all. he just said batteries are bombs. I
 hope he's doing okay, he could have killed me like, 15 times but he didn't. so
 I guess that means he likes me? I hope he's doing okay.

 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.

 people have been pretty stingy lately with hot dogs. kinda makes a racoon guy
 think there's not enough "pork" snacks circulating in the economy. oh look
 turns out like 50 people own 90% of the buns, which is why nobody can make
 anything edible anymore.
 
 yeesh how's a cool cat supposed to make money if people only offer you "jobs"
 that make "dollars" - what good is a dollar, and why do we need so many of
 them? I just want a house, just want food for myself and my cat. surely
 there's nothing wrong in that impulse, the desire to be as I am?
 
 people tend to work best on what interests them, and the hardest when they're
 otherwise bored. capitalist enslavement provides neither of those.

 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.

 what if farmers markets but every day and staffed with people who want to hang
 out and pass out food for free
 
 "a truck just arrived with a bunch of zuchinnis, can you help me load them
 into that tend over there?"
 
 "hello bus stop people, I was just at the farmers market and I was wondering
 if you want some cherries? make sure you throw the pits at that tesla over
 there [jk if you're in a place that does this, the tesla 90% guaranteed has
 one of those "I bought this before I knew Elon was crazy!" type of bumper
 stickers]"
 
 "hi do you know where the watermelons are? Oh, they aren't in season? darn
 well I love watermelons and I think some greenhouse space should be spent on
 growing them for watermelon enthusiasts like me"
 
 alternatively, farmers "markets" on every street like they do in Mexico where
 every time a truck with produce drives past they stop and say "hey want some
 raspberries" until they run out
 
 then people can walk past and get food, or drive past because suburbs.

 Nobody will tell you what to do, at least not until you ask. Be where they can
 see you, and you'll be given a task. If you can do it, say "BRB" - one moment,
 let me handle that for you.
 
 If you can't, say "good luck", and they'll find someone else who can.
 
 It's okay to pass a task off - if someone says "Here's what I need, gotta go"
 then you say "sure, yeah, I'll get someone on it" - then, go find someone to
 do it.

 everyone's all like "ew touchscreens in cars" but the moment someone says
 "what if phones were gameboys" everyone's all like "girl they don't have the
 right hardware radios built in for cellular communication, plus do you really
 wanna be tied to wifi" and I'm like "yeah so peer to peer" and it's like "what
 use is it if you gotta stay within 100 feet of them or whatever" and I'm like
 "... I dunno probably somethin'" and then they walk away in a huff because
 they're too busy for my child-style games. Meanwhile girls have never heard of

 literally all it takes to activate me is for someone who's more radical than
 me to point me out and say "hey. you. you need to do more." and then I fuckin'
 go, like a beyblade (emphasis on blade) nicking the shins of allies and...
 probably foes, right? there's foes around here, right? I'm not just nicking my
 allies, right?

 currently have 20-30 tabs open with poems written but not posted.
 
 I have no idea if I'm going to post all of these. I wrote all of them in ~2
 hours, with maybe 3 or four being added as I was working on the production
 elements after the initial bingewrite.
 
 I also added a bit of context, or modified some of them that felt too cursed
 or otherwise unwieldy. Sometimes I got distracted and needed to come back and
 finish, and in those cases I only added a sentence or two because it's like
 "oh, where was I going with that? I remember what was next, but I don't know
 the further..."
 
 ... I think I might go for another. Wish me luck.

 the 4th of July was pretty awesome!
 
 I made two friends, and I let a stranded stranger crash on my couch. I figure
 if I can trust someone I don't know enough for, say, a one-night-stand, then
 why not? don't worry, I used my best judgement. make sure you do, too.
 
 also I got a knife under my pillow. helps a bit.
 
 before the fireworks show, I saw some people under a bridge. I was given a
 water-bottle and a shrimp kebab, and it was delicious! things I overheard:
 
 "no I haven't heard of that, but I'd like to know more"
 
 ... actually that's it, I didn't spend much time there because I had places to
 be. but from what I saw, that is exactly what we need. for now.
 
 how do you best get people to talk? trick them into a family dinner teehee

 okay, so, you could spend the next couple hours scrolling social media
 
 or you could go for a walk in the rain
 
 ... is it raining where you're at? I forget. Ah well whatever. You could go
 for a walk, whether or not it's in the rain, which surely would be a better
 use of your time. What are you gonna find on social media that you'll remember
 in a week? Hell, what will you remember tomorrow?
 
 my mother used to tell me that "television rots your brain" and, yeah, social
 media counts for that too. Thanks mom. I miss you.
 
 ... I could just call you, but it's the middle of the night for you. And
 probably for me, I guess, WINK
 
 in any case there's little to do today that can't wait for tomorrow. So why
 not go on a walk? Even if nothing happens, especially if nothing happens,
 it'll be good for you.

 I can't cancel my internet because I use it to work, which almost pays enough
 to cover rent, and nothing else.
 
 It's hard to avoid spiraling when you run out of money. Every time this
 happens to me I start feeling things
 
 like... am I good for society? Society doesn't want me, clearly, because I
 don't have any money. And currency is how you measure demand, right? It's
 literally a measure of value.
 
 But then I think of all the homeless and poor people and, like... I value
 them, so what if they don't have dollars? It's literally just paper. Or bits
 in a mainframe that nobody knows how to program anymore.
 
 So if they're valuable at least to me, yet me, with my 67$ in the bank and
 127$ internet fee, is not valuable to me... Then what's the discrepancy?
 
 I'm not trying to be hard on myself, it's not my fault that I bleed money, but
 I still feel terrible.
 
 It's like a common cultural persuasion, if you run outta cash you better kill
 yourself fast.

 to the bottom of the oceans? Why we lack tree forest cities, how we're
 struggling to find moss, sunlight, crystal, stone, and gold, all in the same
 setting?
 
 Capitalism makes it easy to think of profit as all that matters. It's not. Its
 nothing of it. It's a metric like any other. Optimize it or not, struggle for
 what you believe in.

 this game is what we are missing
 thank goodness for that
 for if this is missing in our timeline
 we'll be better off at last
 we can have games, stories, and practice wars
 but none of them are precious
 precious implies worth
 they are worth nothing but entertainment
 no problem solving utility
 nothing of value
 save for perhaps the spatial awareness and strategization that comes
 from being a part of such a deadly ba-lance.
 
 anyway game time teehee just for me, don't worry about it I'll show

Finally, trying to pivot towards Pacific northwestern native perennial plants (and self-seeding annuals) for food, medicine, and material; they're much more adapted to this region as far as sunlight, moisture, bungalow, microbial, avian, insect partner, and soil types are concerned, and that's not only take less work now to instigate and tend, but are much more equipped to handle the fungal infections, droughts, genetic biodiversity collapses, and fluctuating climates that are inbound.  the BRIT ethnobotany database is helpful in that regard, and given that it's based out of Texas and has gynecological herbs, it would be a really good idea for some of the tech queers in our community to duplicate a redundancy of it.

 @user-1040 I think about all those screencaps of Tumblr posts or Twitter
 threads or 4chan memes or even making fun of boomers on facebook and, like,
 that seems like a privacy nightmare if you don't want your words to be
 associated with you. like, if someone saw my name next to something I posted
 in 2013 then they'd probably get a very different perspective of who I was.
 That's just part of growing up, and sometimes growing means changing how you
 represent your self. By screenshotting their posts as I did (but didn't post
 yet) I am denying the agency to change. Forever more they will be remembered
 as the name, face, and words on the screen that I saw fit to remember. That
 feels non-consentual to me.

 one of my most humbling political memories is getting in a fight with a kid at
 school (okay, a heated argument) because he said republicans lower taxes and I
 thought democrats did.
 
 turns out we were both right, because one of our dads had money.
 
 gotta raise taxes for public services, and well inflation's just a fact of
 life y'know, at least stuff doesn't cost as much as way back when.

 gotta start somewhere! and where better to start than here? someplace people
 are familiar with, because "here", while not shared equally or equidistantly,
 is still common enough knowledge that people can feel comfortable with some
 slight, yet incredibly impactful, alterations.
 
 ... though "comfort" in the short-term isn't always the most important thing.
 I do believe it can be useful sometimes. How are you going to get people to
 consent to something if they don't think it helps them, and how can you show
 them that it helps them if it makes them uncomfortable?

 If it has a USB-C charger there's a pretty reasonable chance that you can't
 trust it.
 
 money is useless, but it can still get you things, so that's nice. don't get
 used to it though.
 
 If you have kids, take them out to the park. Or to get pizza. Icecream will
 do. Let them see the bright side of you. The fear that you haven't yet turned
 into energy is something they shouldn't yet see.
 
 Be honest. Be truthful. We are multifaceted, for every person has a bright
 side. You can find yours in an afternoon if you spend it watching the leaves
 in the trees.
 
 Money is useless. Dollars can buy things online and pesos can pay for light
 labor. But that's about it, at least where I live.

 [highly recommend that any programmer learn Lua, it's faster than you know]
 
 I name my variables after objects and patterns and I think that's normal
 
 "so wait, she's just not a believer in the rent-economy?" nope I think rent is
 too large of a portion of a person's budget, it prevents them from spending on
 things that would enable them.
 
 if landlords are too plentiful, their overall share will decrease. This has
 been practiced over the ages and the truth always winds up on the streets.
 
 homeless people often have just run away from home, with nothing but what they
 carried.
 
 cities should have private fountains in addition to public ones. With at least
 10 ft of pathway to each one. [I recommend closer to 20] they should have
 plants and glasses and stone and soil deposi[caches, but pronounched "stashes"]

 I have like 112$ and I need to buy a flea collar for my cat.
 
 you know what that means...
 
 yep, that's right!
 
 it means you should ask a friend or a stranger for change for a 20 and then
 drop random bills on the ground near me.
 
 what are they gonna do, track you? c'mon, you already wear black red and blue,
 they're gonna know what you believe from the random cameras around the city
 and such.
 
 Besides, if they're tracking people through dollar bill serial numbers then we
 seriously have gotta upgrade our threat models.
 
 https://margaretkilljoy.substack.com/p/your-threat-model-has-changed
 
 Also... I kinda want them to know that there's a headless hydra organizing
 against them.
 
 The good news is that I don't have to pay rent, I don't have to buy food, and
 I don't have to buy diapers. Thanks, government, now I don't have to rely on
 kindness or clout for aid. The bad news is that I have 6 slugs for my shotgun

 by the way if you want to start talking to someone, just start playing the
 same game they're playing and see if they reach out.
 
 doesn't matter if you feel like it
 
 just fuckin' do it
 
 if they want to talk to you they might play a game you really like
 
 (but I get boooooored of games, I don't wanna play the same 200 all life
 long!!)
 
 ugh okay fine you can have as many games as you want, just... don't buy too
 many
 
 (how many is too many?)
 
 um. use your best judgement.
 
 (how much does a dollar cost?)
 
 ... okay I'll get you one every once in a while.
 
 (neat!)
 
 ... anyway so yeah use steam if you wanna get in contact with someone,
 sometimes it's just nice to say hi, yeah, like "hey how ya doin' okay ttyl"
 just catchin' up with the gals
 
 helps because you can sense changes in their demeanor

 meanwhile in person you get body language, and the benefit of activities and
 shared experiences. They're both useful for different things.

 here's an idea - it's illegal to spend more than a thousand dollars in a day
 
 anything else requires multiple days of planning because it's such a large
 investment
 
 (obviously kinda cursed)

 when you have a massive, fuck-off military, sometimes the best thing to do is
 to just... use it.
 
 ah, but what do you do when the sky rains poison bombs?
 
 I dunno turn into candy people I guess /shrug

 when people say they want a woman president what they want is not a woman
 president. what they want is a kind old lady.

 kinda tempted to make like, 20 different accounts on like, 20 different
 mastodon instances and just have them repost all of the things I've written in
 the past one-by-one-by-one until someone notices and calls me out on it
 
 might get some more conversation, at least

 literally just... if you want to connect to me, come hang out on my wavelength.
 
 or like, invite me to join yours, and I'll do my best to show how I feel about
 the things you share.

 @user-95 one of the most empathetic people I ever met on VR chat was consoling
 me with their mic off while I was oversharing about some stupid things people
 did to me in the past. things that stupid me thought were okay and actively
 encouraged because I was stupid. anyway when their mic was off their body
 language spoke for them. I'll try that next time.

 getting the phone numbers of cute he/thems at a bar is NOT the same as
 organizing.
