 most people in the world are dumb as a bag of bricks
 
 but that's okay, I still love them, and so should you.
 
 everyone I hang out with is sharp as a tack
 
 and I love them still, for I don't have a preference for blunt objects.
 
 some people don't feel emotions
 
 I think they're just depressed
 
 some people can't stop
 
 won't stop, I say.
 
 really as long as they follow their heart and sing a tune that is true
 
 I think they're alright.

 if there's a phone number on something, find someone else who wants it instead
 of calling it. doh. extra degrees of separation.
 
 if you think you know someone who wants something, take it when offered.
 opportunists try and find the most valuable thing, but the truth is they're
 all just as valuable and just as worthless in the right context. something
 that's valuable to you is worthless to me, and something worthless to you is
 valuable to me.
 
 everything's worth less once you sit on it for a while... don't be dumb, keep
 track of what's still going on, but also keep your head down. unlike me, who's

 conservatives are going to miss the fuck out of the south when the water
 overcomes it
 
 and it'll be their fault
 
 which is tragic
 
 and suddenly everyone's problem
 
 ...
 
 but it's not their fault, it's their leaders and representatives
 
 but they're all so separated they don't know how to agree on anything but the
 stuff they hear from their neighbors. Like... what do you expect that's just
 crowd dynamics
 
 then you have foreign powers who crave our destruction (or so we're told)

 A good way to get people talking is to meet with a stranger and share your
 feelings.
 
 Or, if you're scared of strangers, then try talking with a friend.
 
 "something something SUPREME COURT something whatever CRIMINALIZED PEOPLE blah
 blah blah I WON'T STAND FOR IT"
 
 that kind of thing. Make sure you look at your friend for the loud bits, and
 maybe look at someone else nearby when it's your friend's turn to speak.

 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.

 that the journey is something that is always changing, and if you expect
 stasis you will fade into despair and your illusions of immortality will
 shatter as the crushing weight of death approaches like a freight train

 congratulations, you invented humanoid robots! And hey they come in so many
 shapes and colors, plus you can run them on nothing but rice, beans, and
 nutrient paste. They're quite efficient at their jobs!

 gold, as a substance, was necessary for the birth of pottery because it's
 malleability and general sparkly and desirable demeanor meant it was easy and
 encouraged to create pretty things with it like statues and stuff. then, when
 it's rarity became known, because people kept throwing it in the river like
 the rest of their trash because they're dumb, people already knew how to make
 things and thought "hmmm we need an alternative substance" and then pottery
 was hardened by the fire

 bunch of smoke, nuts. oh huh that's kinda cool it's just sitting there in the

 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.

 or if they arrive late, you can meet them in a public place the next day and

 ideally, with people who would recognize you if the person from out of town

 I had a dream that someone fed me a McDonalds burger in the airport (with
 "special sauce") and then the next time I was at the grocery store in the
 waking world I ended up buying a bunch of those meat replacements that I
 usually skip in favor of moar vegetables.
 
 Hmmmmm.... I wonder if I have a deficiency
 
 (yeah you dumbass it's a calorie deficiency, just eat more)

 I refuse to be known by anyone who doesn't know me. But I'm always meeting
 people anew, so if they spent some time with me and saw more of my facets,
 perhaps they might come to know me.

 if someone on the street asked you, could you point to the nearest power
 station? wastewater treatment plant? hell even a gas-station
 
 if you live in a city, probably not. They put them in fake buildings with
 hollowed out exteriors in order to keep the city looking nice.
 
 these crucial pieces of infrastructure are important to defend. but if you
 don't know which street to turn down, then you might miss them.
