give it time
everything cooperative needs buy-in from everyone involved
and sometimes things spontaneously develop 15 leaps per day when things are
suddenly changing every day
on days that all feel the same
nothing develops
we just put more ideas in our head
that might be useful...
one day if we're lucky. Or maybe unlucky depending on how it goes.

drawn around them. Or diagrams or flowcharts or graphs or...

jedi channel this philosophy by focus and discipline. sith do it by giving in
to emotion. either way, their fate is in play as defined entirely by the
spirit that leads their host. most people do this not at all, for they are

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?

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.

Your body is a river, from your mouth to your exits
Throughout there are many pathways and shores
As the tide goes up, the color of concentration goes up
And all four of you are made clear
Each act of consumption
is a ride down the river,
though broken into slivers,
and changed beyond recognition
The color is what defines the third eye
and beauty is beheld, what joys to be felt
While secrecy is bold, it's often held
So worry less and just go with the fold

arrive early and you have the day off to show them around.
or if they arrive late, you can meet them in a public place the next day and
then spend time at your favorite spots.
ideally, with people who would recognize you if the person from out of town
decided to be hurtful and/or replace you.
plus, that way you can gauge their character
and decide whether or not you want them in your own home.

when you type the letters they slowly fade in on the other person's screen
like miniature explosions from layers of gunpowder
forming letters in the sky
anyway the text would "burn" into existence slowly and you had time after
typing
your words to go back and edit them but also whatever you said was semi
permanent. Thus forcing a smooth and ideal progression toward thinking about
the things you say.
Also separate idea but it'd be neat if there was like... a show or something
that just recorded a person's desktop as they fucked around on the internet.
Call it... ambient desktopping. It'd look a little like those coding twitch
streams that just slowly update over time. Idk it's kinda cool

if the "WHY" leaps out at you, sure, yeah, go for it, until of course your

because of this reason" and you're like "shit that's better than what I got,

the second rule is you don't have to hang out with mortals. there are places
you can go where they won't find you, except by accident, and then you just go
somewhere else.

the thing about carmelized mushrooms and onions is that they demand patience.
they make you sit there and wait, always at attention ready to stir every
couple minutes.
but the end result is so worth it.

Okay. Consider: if I'm good, and hearing what I say makes you feel bad, then
what does that tell you about you?
Why else would you hear what I say if not to reflect upon yourself? And why
would the good reflect away from the types of things that make you a suitable
fit for capitalism?

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.

DEAR VR DESIGNERS:
when making trailers for your game, create a separate camera in the game engine
and record from that.
keep the player character invisible, but just... watch from a distance
like they're an actor in a scene
ummmm oh dear she's crazy, what the heck

true, but much the same way people will rebel against inconvenience by writing
passwords on sticky notes, so too might they put SSH keys onto the nearest
flash drive without validating that it hasn't been compromised. There's
tradeoffs everywhere I guess.

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.

doom is like sand thrown on a fire.
don't spread it unless you are intentional about it. sometimes it's good to
smother fires. other times it's cathartic. that's okay.
but keep in mind the future goals. where are we trying to get to in the near
future? work towards that. your emotions are fuel, not despair to wallow in.

so weird how the store won't let me leave until I give them some of my
