a paradox game where you play as a species colonizing the earth

150 million years of evolution, just... snuffed in an instant.god describing the
fastest mass extinction event[s]
"holo scene? no this is the real scene. what, did you think computers didn't
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"
the more voices you hear the greater the bright bold future calls to you.
"here's how to explain it to executives - your company is non-functional until
you incorporate processes and decisions that lead to a sustainable future. this
is impermissable, the earth was designed to receive a certain amount of heat
from the sun. plants absorb heat because they give you shade. oil is made out of
thousands of years old plants. if we burn all the plants, then no oil can be
produced. we'll be extincted

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.

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)

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."

truth is, you can absolutely make selfishness justified, both ethically and
morally. you just need the right incentives.
however, the incentives that would lead to such a case are not the kind that
accrete power to the powerful. they are the liberatory kind, that give us all
the liberty to be selfishly interested in our own communal good.

Use them to observe enemy movement. No need for human manned checkpoints if we

to improve your "cat-petting" abilities, try to imagine that the wall in front
of you is the most interesting thing in the world - stare at anything else
besides the cat, and look at them in your periphary. Occasionally you can look
back, but the idea is that this way they will be able to look at your face
without painful eye contact.
cats are autistic - they don't look at you unless you're looking somewhere else.
most people stare at cats when they are engaging with them, and totally ignore
them otherwise.

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.

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).

"Fighting back" doesn't necessarily mean standing on a street corner with a
rifle.
Begin to orient your life around guns. How can you support the people who wield
them? We all need food, shelter, kindness, and inspiration.
Your fears and your worries shall bother you no longer, for your life as you've
led it so far has been the life of capital. It's okay to miss what you've lost,
but remember who took it from you and enrage. Then, engage.
Nothing starts today. It has started quite a while ago, and it's only now
beginning to flicker and spark. It burned low for all this time, and it will
burn low again. But it's the dry season, so prepare for wildfires.

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.

a program that bundles another program and compiles it during it's normal

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,

hey, listen, I'm here at this point in life just the same as you. who cares,
right? like. nobody wants to see your personal development. You don't have to
prove yourself. Like... why would you care so much about what other people (who
you don't even know) care about what you do? like... it's fine. just... be.
you can get better if you want, but only if you want. There's no reason to be so
concerned about what other people thingc. Just, identify what and who you are,
and then be the best what and who that you are. Thats really all there is to it.
and yeah. It's totally unfair that some people get an easier shot at "being who
and what they are"
that's privilege, and that's stupid.
okay, sure, maybe we should conceptualize how to adapt to specific situations
when resources are limited

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"

listen, judges are useful character moralities, but they don't have to be the
only ones to decide things.
I mean, if they disagree, then let the one who cares the most about it have the
decision-making power.
if you do this equally for everything, then everyone will get what they want.
so, like, if you care about something, then believe in it.
if it's truly good, then more people will come to it, and it'll naturally
extinguish (with care and love) the least favored approach, which... honestly
now that I think of it is not such a good approach either.
the reason I say that is because it's good to be multi-faceted, and to have
general flows and rough surfaces.
These are places people can hold onto you, the times when you're trying your
mostest.
y'know, your tough patches. the things that are difficult in your life.
the stuff you're working on can push you forward,
if you only had someone to play catch with.
