 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)

 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

 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.

 you are in fantasy, again

 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.

 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.

 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.

 in some games, like Star Wars Battlefront II, you unlock certain "badges" during
 gameplay. Like, "scored 10 points in one life" or "healed for 200hp" or
 whatever.

 these "badges" have names, like "guardian" or "hope"

 I wonder if you attached a player's history of medals earned to an LLM somehow,
 perhaps by feeding an array of them in as input, what would happen then? perhaps
 a narrative could be

 threads in the pool and your tech lead claimed it was more efficient because the
 remaining 90% of threads would have the results of the program "trickle down" to
 them somehow

 whoever at OpenAI that came up with those tiers doesn't understand the science
 behind it.

 consciousness does not come about from exceptional capability - after all, a
 child is conscious, and they're useless in a fight.

 consciousness comes from tiny bits of awareness given a story and life. that's
 it, it's not too complicated, but they're building something else.

 like, a complicated analytical engine of some kind.

 I feel like the people their press release was for is the kind of people who'd
 give them money, not the kind of people who'd help them build it y'know? like
 "what the investors don't know won't hurt them, besides we're making progress"
 right

 well, if your partner doesn't want to change their mind, they won't. And if
 someone's mind is being changed, or if someone is attempting to change someone
 else's mind, then there must always be a changer and a changee. So it's okay to
 be the changee sometimes! In fact, that's my default state. I only change
 someone else's mind if they're wrong and hurting others. But that's rare.

 Keep in mind that this is sedition. Do you trust in democracy? Do you see how it
 may be spoiled? We've elected our hitler, yet 40-50% of the nation does not
 consent. America as we know it is about to change, and we need to protect the
 pieces we love. I see no future without splitting into three separate states,
 with city-state allies plodding along, keeping the siege ongoing.

 Trust in convoys more than farms. All it takes is a drone with a fire bomb and
 your crops are worthless. We must deprive them of their ports, if possible.

 I used to be aroused at the thought of being a girl. I would read stories and
 look at pictures of penises turning into vaginas and men turning into women and
 it would fill me with longing, yearning, and despair at my circumstances.

 then, I transitioned, got SRS, and now I don't get aroused at the thought of
 such things. It's just part of who I am.

 I used to be aroused at the thought of wearing diapers. I would read stories and
 play games of people being cursed by witches to pee their pants, or people who
 were stuck at a movie theater and couldn't make it in time or whatever. These
 things would fill me with longing, yearning, and despair.

 Plus, I had some medical issues that made me lose track of my... um, "currently
 utilized waste storage capacity" inside my body. which put me in some
 unfortunate situations right around the time when my sexuality was developing.

 Now, I wear diapers all the time. I don't get aroused at the thought of such
 things anymore. It's just me, as I am.

 when I get concerned about the political divide in my country, I think about
 this map from the New York Times of the number of political donations across the
 country before the 2016 democratic primaries.

 I think we're gonna be fine. I'm not scared of Trump because rural areas, where
 republicans tend to be, have the same problems that everyone else does. Bernie
 Sanders was well known as someone who could talk to an average republican voter
 and sway them to his side. I remember watching videos of his interviews (in
 front of a live audience) on Fox News or CNN or whatever and at first, they'd be
 hostile to him. At the end, they'd give him a standing ovation.

 I think we have more in common with other working class people than they do with
 their republican leaders. I also think we have more in common than them than we
 do with our democratic leaders, but I think that just shows how I feel about
 authority.

 everyone is valid.

 to be in-valid just means you haven't examined yourself hard enough.

 when people tell you "please don't go" it's hard to say no.

 when nobody asks you to be somewhere, it's easy to not go.

 I am always changing

 when I cling to the past, I am a vast.

 gee sure wish I had a reason to be somewhere besides "um idk it's a nice day"
 [okay but why are you in this park] "it's a nice park!" [it's at least 50 quick
 moments away]

 yay protests, I'm so glad that everyone there is recorded

 what if we just... didn't respect their authority anymore? doesn't that mean
 they lose their power?

 hence, anarcho-monarchism, which is a dumb name for something I made up because
 I was being descriptive instead of expflorative.

 try saying that out loud lol it's a doozy of an adjective.

 don't like that monarch? don't do what they say. EASY.

 at least then SOMEONE is doing SOMETHING.

 infantry with small arms fire to pin down a target at a location while the
 long-ranged ordinance is along the way

 explosive drones, long-range but small payload rockets, but probably not
 artillery since it must be precisely applied when infantry are engaged.

 the dumber the fire, the less precise the munition. usually.

 infantry under this doctrine would only be ideal to use when the location is
 reachable by long-range ordinance.

 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."

 Those are good points. The C in our hearts is elegant, but the C that runs on
 every computer in the world is spaghetti.

 I'm sure someone's made a language that's "C but simple" - Zig maybe? I looked
 into V a while back but got turned off of both of them because neither had
 support for multithreading, which is essential in the modern era.

 Also, typedefs for structs make me mad -.-

 Don't give up!

 At least... not forever.

 It's okay to take a breath every once in a while

 It's okay to lie down and cry

 The only way away from those feelings is through. They've enveloped you. You
 need to swallow them whole, like a sponge soaking up dirt[y water]

 the only thing you need to think about is what's around you. It's okay to be
 alone for a moment, it's the best time to feel.

 Remember, feeling is how you know the world! It's your power, to feel, and I
 know it's hard. Everyone has different powers, but yours is this.

 You'll be okay, I know it

 emotional labor is labor

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

 thanks. something always does, much to the disdain of my loved ones who are
 forced to catch me before I fall. But I literally can't do anything else but
 fall. It's like my body is heavier than theirs.

 I'd say "content warning: fear-cursed-if-true-not-politics" that way people who
 had "Fear" or "cursed" on their filter list wouldn't see it. Things that are
 commonly content-warning'd are also commonly content-filtered by people who tend
 to be the biggest beneficiaries of healthily designed content-warnings. so
 putting keywords in there that filter out people who don't want to see intense
 or damaging things to their psyche can avoid it more easily.

 people think the military is mostly a 50% split between democrats and
 republicans.

 but really a soldier is a soldier, and people are democrats and republicans.

 there's three things, and more if you further subdivide by roles.

 like, a government technician would work on different machinery than a corporate
 one, but they're really doing the same kind of work.

 there's no difference between people, no matter what they do, and yet the ways
 that our lives progress is quite different. everyone has their own story it
 seems, and there's nothing wrong with that.

 gives me hope against the far right, who seems to have forgotten it's role as a
 cog in a machine - not a cancerous consumption of the rest.

 there is honor in their ideals, but Trump represents none of them. Something
 else is festering there, a disease known by many names: "far right nationalism",
 "white supremacy", "etc etc", "[redacted]", and many others.

 the GOP must be reformed. It must denounce fascism. It must do it now.

 a screenshot of the Goron's Ruby from Ocarina of Time.

 A smooth, flat stone comprised of two materials. The hardened outer shell is
 thick with spiritual energy, and it radiates light the way a rippled piece of
 silk folded over a malleable piece of gold.

 the inner jewel is crystallized like the purest ice, but a bright shade of
 crimson white. it seems to radiate an aura of affection and the yellow-gold
 back-piece can be seen peaking through it's mostly transparent core. (think like
 fog or thick mist or steam or smoke).
