 I wonder why someone hasn't yet written a "meta-package-manager" which installed
 from many different sources and correctly configured each installation to be
 able to efficiently find exactly where the requisite libraries are installed,
 even if they're installed for a different system. Then, when running, every time
 it encountered an error, it moved one more dependency over to the native package
 manager until eventually everything is in order.

 ... or something like that, truth be told I'm a junior

 nixed my job offer today because something told me to stay in town.

 called my ex-boyfriend an asshole today, so he's probably not going to keep
 paying my rent.

 sold the shares of stock that my grandfather gifted me as inheritance, so I'm no
 longer a capitalist I guess.

 at least my elbow doesn't hurt anymore. I didn't get outside today but I cleared
 a lot of blockers for the coming tomorrows.

 good morning!

 if you need to design an agentic programming ritual toward a goal that needs
 numbers, try expressing the number in analogy rather than empirical value.

 "it should be red enough to feel a sunset"
 "there's enough time here to go for a walk around the block"
 "the spartans had enough soldiers to fully block the narrow causeway,
 essentially forcing the persians to grind down their number to the death. most
 battles fought in that time were fought until morale breaks - this one was to
 the mortal end. hence, why they are im-mortal."
 "the smoothocity should be as soft as a brushed metal refrigerator"
 "the chocolate had 56 grams of sugar in it. it was a lot of chocolate, enough to
 place in a standardized container."

 I never rest. Not mentally. I find it sooooo much harder to get moving again
 once I'm asleep.

 But I've been sleeping lately, because it's "good for me" or whatever. Because
 I'm "burnt out and need to heal" or something.

 Damnit why is it so much harder to stop snuggling someone than it is to pack up
 a tent?

 I'm like the guy in Hot Fuzz, that one really good movie about cops. oops cops
 mentioned one second.

 I'm always moving, but, I hardly ever seem to be able to get anything done. Why
 is that? Is the work just... endless? Am I ever a slave to my surroundings? Or
 am I just cursed with a mortal form, a form destined to toil in whatever way it
 finds itself contextualized in?

 Maybe I should just stop complaining. Maybe work is it's own reward or whatever.
 I don't think I'm depressed anymore, although good luck getting me to feel any
 emotions except focus, and the call to intercede on another's behalf.

 I don't have time for this. >.

 do you ever wonder about how much heat is absorbed the plants and leaves? Kinda
 makes me think that they're keeping us warm at night. The desert is much colder
 than you'd expect, and so it the moon, or mars, or any other sufficiently
 devastated forest habitat.

 (plains are my favorite biome, please don't take them away with your stupid
 climate change, they're one of the most at risk)

 reality? no no these people are real they're just made out of different stuff to
 their computers. so they interact and use themselves to each other's will ->
 wow that was funny it almost felt like something was telling me how to feel"

 you incorporate processes and decisions that lead to a sustainable future. this

 In soviet America, the rich tax you.

 ... wait that's just regular America isn't it?

 ... they would never be so bold if they weren't fed the kind of propaganda that
 we never see.

 They would never be so bold if they knew the truth of our lives. They don't have
 it easy, but we put up with more shit than they do.

 "Abe Lincoln may have freed all men, but Sam Colt made them equal."

 "you are not immune to the propaganda you see. you are, however, immune to the
 kind of propaganda they see."

 the powerful must always exist at the behest of the governed. such is one of
 many prices for power.

 part of me can't help but think about the militarization of the police, and how
 anyone can drive their APC's and operate their sound cannons or whatever, if
 only they possessed the keys and training. God bless our veterans right? And
 hey, a police station is an island in a sea of man.

 "Our chances may be, far from pioneered. But our chances may be in our favour."

 ... sorry I've been listening to a lot of Green Day lately.

 there are very few professions that are naturally more suited to a schizophrenic
 than a normal person.

 One of them is beggar, another is prophet, and a third is "massive
 disappointment" but that comes with the territory.

 have you considered that maybe you're just a loser

 yes I have and I decided that all I can do is my best, and if my best loses then
 what else could I have done? Wait for help? Yeah. I do that too.

 It feels like an encirclement, and all you can do is hunker down and wait to be
 relieved. Or fight to the last, it's up to you. I hear they brutalize the skulls
 of their prisoners after executing them, so, I don't know about you but I'm not
 surrendering. Not gonna roll those dice.

 sorry. Should stay here, present, in the moment. Like when I sat out on the park
 bench for like 30 minutes straight without moving a muscle last night. Or when I
 sat and contemplated the nature of a bog for two hours last september. Or when I
 woke from a dream that turned out to be life.

 one section of the government consistently and succeedingly telling another part
 what to do is a coup-like behavior. if the rules mean nothing, then what is your
 job even for?

 hence, why the rules mean something. Because your job is important. It's
 building up our capabilities as the human race.

 you don't have to work to live. you shouldn't, and you won't. it's not your
 place to labor. know why? because nobody's job is impossible. You can just...
 work together to get things done. Then they're done! and you never need to solve
 them again!

 enough time of that and we'll have turned earth into a space station, not a moon
 style structure.

 like... wouldn't it be neat if coruscant could do hyperdrives? I wonder if
 hyperspace is real. Ah, well, that's for the future, they can pass it along if
 they get a chance. Anyway for now I think I want a chance to dance.

 what working too slow for your ideas mean that your ideas, which you'll never
 again have twice, are lost forever.

 Good thing we're always innovative. Good thing life always moves on. Tomorrow is
 a new chance for utilization, and for our own ends we'll build the next dawn.

 An image means nothing, for it is just an icon.

 like a picture of a floppy disk corresponding to writing memory from RAM into a
 hard disk platter, even tho those have three different tasks, so too does my
 icon gesture at something.

 On the other hand, art is necessarily divorced from it's meaning the moment it
 leaves the pen and is written to paper. So there cannot be a meaning in my flag,
 not one that I define of course.

 The observers of the artwork, of whom I am but one of, can possess their own
 ideas of what it means, of course. Here's mine, feel free to take your own:

 Sea, land, sky. The crimson of a fading light, and the bright beginnings of a
 new day. Man(kind), with our vivid red internals, stands astride the border of
 the ocean and the surface. We walk where we will, perhaps into the black depths
 of the cosmos beyond, but forever do we anchor ourselves and owe allegiance to
 our earth and our star. Sunlight casts crimson light upon our externals, as our
 hearts do beat through time.

 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.

 Fuck that. Oops cursing mentioned, one s

 All people are good at heart, let's get them what they need for a start.

 Some people won't change. Some people are doomed to the life they were given.
 It's not their fault, but it is their responsibility, and if they want to be
 free, they will respect the rights of others.

 These rights we claim for each other are rights that must be taken away from
 those who would use them to harm others.

 To defeat evil, deprive power, supply kindness, in that order.

 No-one is beyond saving, but it is their choice to make. A choice ungiven is a
 chance untaken.

 I'm such a direct person I think, even though I often just sorta... shrug and
 ignore things that bother or hurt me? Like, whatevs.

 but the moment I notice a pattern that is continually harmful I have to restrain
 myself from moving to contest it. Hence why I talk about capitalism so much
 teehee, but its also common in my interpersonal and communal lives.

 "the purpose of the system is it's effects"

 the purpose of a person is how they make people feel

 so if someone FOR A RANDOM EXAMPLE FOR NO REASON WHATSOEVER, constantly hurts
 other people by creating situations where they are harmed which creates a
 dramatic fight... or if someone speaks in circles for hours and hours and HOURS
 like this guy:

 or people who jump into a conversation and drive it through the underbrush, over
 the ridge, around the bend, up and over the bridge, and then park it outside

 humans are computers that inhale air, produce electricity, and exhale carbon.

 give me a biochemical or mechanical process for doing that on a reasonable scale
 for cheap and you can solve global warming by replacing power outlets with an
 energy generation box. Doubles as an air purifier and UPS.

 Okay! I'm doing chores, setting up RTSP (almost done btw, pretty sure), playing
 a turn or two of Dominions 6 every once in a while, hanging out with my cat,
 eating nachos - not yet, gonna make them now >: ) and reading stuff on
 Mastodon. Not too much, I don't have to many people I follow, so it's not an
 un-ending torrent of content. Just like, 10 minutes here and there.

 I'm definitely down to watch BGC later : )

 you should update the directories at the top yourself, of course. And give it a

 a program that bundles another program and compiles it during it's normal
 operation in order to derive a certain purpose which is quickly overwritten in
 memory, so you can't get the full picture of what it does.

 like, a fast moving function that's never really clear in it's purpose.

 because it changes a lot of things that don't really seem to matter,

 like a constant wrestling match over the nature of the computer program.

 which would you rather? a dance, or a death-splatter?

 yeesh, where's my cat, I need something to cuddle.

 she's been distant from me, lately.

 rest when you're tired. eat when you're hungry. drink when you're thirsty, and
 laugh when it bubbles up within you.

 never accept your own death

 fight for every second of life, something something do not go quietly into that
 grim dark

 what the fuck are you supposed to do? Reading what you said got me pretty
 fucking pissed - keep talking for a start, it helps, people need to be pissed.

 I'm also broke as shit, don't know how I'm going to pay rent and eat, but it'll
 get done.

 Where do you live? Can other people help you? Medications are an organizational
 problem, not an insurmountable barrier. We'll make it work.
