 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

 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. >.

 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.

 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

 I have intrusive thoughts almost constantly that take over my train of thought
 and make it difficult to focus. Like suddenly I'm thinking about something
 completely different, and I realize no, it wasn't suddenly, I actually just
 stood there and thought

 and then I think "what was I thinking again?" sometimes when I write these
 strange uncontrollable spirals down it makes poetry. Which is kinda neat I
 guess. Sometimes I just wonder about how DNS can be a singular point of failure
 in our networking infrastructure or whatever haha

 Build drones, build stations where they can be controlled, repaired, refueled,
 etc.

 Put guns on them. Figure it out.

 Use them to observe enemy movement. No need for human manned checkpoints if we
 know they're coming. Automate as much as you can, but don't rely on ChatGPT or
 AWS or other external resources. Not until their data centers are under our
 control, and even then we'll need time to spin up our own software.

 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.

 And still, I followed him all night.

 Why? Because I knew it was important. I needed him to tell me what he was doing
 and why. And I think I know, now.

 capitalism is like if your thread allocator gave 90% of the work to 10% of the
 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

 Checkers, but played with chess pieces, and every time you make it back to your

 right as you'd like. And pawns can move two spaces left or right on any turn.

 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.

 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.

 the reason the right is hurt that you'd celebrate charlie's death is because
 they hired an actor to perform him to one side and he does his natural self to
 the other. maybe he was a really big cutie, nobody can tell, because it's pretty
 much like hand-waving on narkina 12.

 she's made out of midnight, she's suffused in the stuff. it permeates her form

 why would magic work if it wasn't a performance? there always is a source from
 where it must flow.

 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."

 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.

 you know what they told me to do when I went to the communists and the queers
 and the mafia and the yakuza and the CIA?

 look all I'm saying is the results this election decides whether you should
 trust the government or the corporations more. and they both want things that
 you don't, in addition to things you do.

 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.

 city planners who thought "this low-income neighborhood has remained low value   │
 for quite a while, perhaps nobody wants to live there" and then they demolish it │
 and gentrify the area                                                            │
 the problem is, their heuristics are wrong. it's not low income because nobody   │
 wants to live there, it's low income because of racial inequality, or maybe it's │
 next to a factory or something                                                   │
 or maybe it's just the culture of the zone. like, some people value some things  │
 to certain degrees, like "we don't want to charge for people to live" so the     │
 rents are significantly reduced (proportional to the rest of income)             │
 perhaps even mandated, with the government paying 80% of each mortgage or rental │
 home.                                                                            │
 alas, some places are like REALLY nice, like palace nice, and they're worried    │
 that if anyone can go there they'll mess it up. I know I can't go because I      │
 smell, for example, because I'm a witch and witches are all ugly and smell bad,  │
 remember? Maybe they're just trans, tbh, because like people in the past wanted  │

 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
