Why are you buying bumper stickers and flair? You could be spending that on 3d
printers!
Unrelated, but companies are wasting their time at pride. Wanna know how you
can help? Pick 15 attendees and pay for their entire Amazon wishlists. Then,
have a competition with all the other companies for fame and prestige of who
bought the best gifts (that are explicitely asked for and randomly assigned)
while they work to secure the rest of the things they need. The things that
can't be bought, the things which utilize gifts from Amazon shopping lists,
the organizations and groups of people working toward a common goal. The
common goal that queer people share, the liberation of all of mankind.
Corporations could actually help them work toward that by tangibly improving
their material conditions. Like by buying everything on their Amazon
wishlists. (that's just an example, doesn't have to be amazon, but that kind
of vibe. Giving them everything they have previously had need of, but couldn't
access. The idea being that they would then implement those newfound
capabilities, through their own usage or in the guided manipulations of
another's will. Like a teacher to a child, bringing forth understandings the
child may use in their future lives, people may be given new capabilities and
taught how to use tools that the teacher might have placed on their Amazon
shopping list, and were subsequently provided by a corporation sponsoring a
small segment of pride, but did not possess the time to use. They may possess
the functionality (skills and muscle memory and such) yo utilize those new
tools, but without the time to do so they cannot. So, they might teach
another, who then might provide the same impulse that the sponsored person
(with the fulfilled Amazon wishlist) was initially guided. (by). Like, if
bought a 3D printer, I might spend a hundred hours learning how to do it, I
might spend 50 if I was taught one-on-one. But someone who already knows how
to use it could use it (have it instead) and fulfill the need that I had which
initially encouraged me to reach for a 3D printer I neither possessed not
owned nor could operate. The need remains, and may be fulfilled by the person
who was given the 3D printer who can use the 3D printer by the person who was
fulfilled it from their Amazon wishlist by the corporation who believed in the
same common goal as the queer liberation of humanity and eternity.

claude-code is like programming, but for executives.
when everyone has FUCK I'M TOO HUNGRY I can't think right
when everyone has the power of an executive, that's communism.
something something futurism is when everyone is elevated without diminishing
others
gah I need to live in a palace or something where everyone does the normal
stuff and I can focus on magic and the gods
I wondeer how much the oracles at delphi did for themselves? weren't they
blinded at a young age, to better hear the voices of the gods? ... oh that

5 was pretty cruel, but, now I know *how* it works and yeah. ancient peoples
were smart. but also sharp. they had to work with what they got, and we got
computers now, so.
I am nothing but hopeful for the future! I'm convinced that everything's going
to be alright. I've thought about it at length, and I think we're winning
against the dark. We're on the right track, and there aren't many things that
could go wrong at this stage.
... okay there are always things that could go wrong. But I don't see what I
could do to help. Maybe I should go walk around a bit, and see what's changed
in the past few months, as I've been sleeping in my room for most of it.
Haven't gone on a proper walk since summer. It's winter now...

thus, parity is reached, without depriving us of potential.

collectively owned housing is just people deciding who lives in which housing.
don't you trust your friendly queer realtor?
collectively doesn't have to mean completely silo-ed and isolated. you should
have access to ALL higher communities at any time that you want. Scheduling is
a disaster, but you can get through it. just... build a schedule for every
single person on earth and suddenly nobody has freedom unless they put "doin'

They're afraid of the hamster wheel. I get it. But really I'm just asking
myself questions - why, why, how, what, when, who... Mostly why though.
Always and forever the questions and answers I did ponder - yet forth through
my life I've never met any surefire design, there's always been the matter of
[hope, but pronounced choice].
Only an eternal question monger could suffice for the teachings of christ. (in
the general sense, not the religious implication)
(as a title, almost)
Fear not the one who takes the lords name, but perish the thought of a crook.
Only the vane, in this do profane.
No questions? Then let us move on.
Oh? Well I have some answers, about the truth of totality as it spreads across
all centuries. What's on your mind?
... Well, I have to leave people I care about. Relinquishing love is
difficult. And I get to choose how to move forward. But I must choose soon,
and though I ask myself always what I'd like to do, I always get a new answer.
And every time I think "I should do this. I should dedicate myself to this
[whatever it may be] and on the other side of that thought I realized my
power. I can imagine really quickly and adeptly, but chaos is difficult. "
something like that. Anyway I don't know how to move forward but I'll figure
something out. The point is that I'm sad for leaving those I care about. It's
a sad kind of love, a bittersweet mercy, the chance to be part of a flock. And
I don't know why I
I am not entry level. I haven't spent my time here left fallow. I never stop
working, I am constantly online. I do not know how to relax, every moment to
myself is spent on learning through play. Like a child, almost.
Do you want a company to make good decisions? Hire a gamer. They literally
practice strategy all day long. Don't expect results overnight because they're
learning a new song, but still apply yourself as their teacher. They'll bring
you insights and intuitions that achieve specific near and long-term goals. If
executed correctly, of course. Because the value is not in the follow through
- life is not a book of numbers [like a banker or accountant] it's more like.
?
... Right sorry I got off track - the point is you shouldn't hire athletes
(the people who play games like an esport) for a strategic role - they excel
at tactics. However, strategy gamers (who plays games primarily of the mind,
the science of making good decisions) can often make good decisions to achieve
defined meta-goals and objectives.
Longer thoughts make sense if you spend a long time thinking about them. And
grammar is quickly forgotten to the past.
