@pee_zombie probably not, but it seems fun anyway
@pee_zombie yo, let's compete in beat saber
@pee_zombie do you play any video games?
@pee_zombie i also have had no fast-juice today.
@pee_zombie i see you liking my toots and not tooting back. your favorites cannot and will not add up to good reply game, sir.
@WHALEINFO this is why cloaks are goated w/ the sauce
@WHALEINFO SO TRUE
@ajvermillion effectively, these are actually the same.
"You have two choices: join the heroes, or die."
is not very different from:
"You have two choices: join us and we will save you, or die"
@WHALEINFO btw where is your anonymous feedback form, I would like to anonymously speak to your heroics, strength, beauty, and virtue
@AbstractFairy this is a bit unfair though, I'm still very committed to the blogosphere, which I think is a beautiful and alive ecosystem. I just want it to exist in NYC, as well.
@AbstractFairy a house of wisdom where you can't commune over the lunch table is no house of wisdom
@AbstractFairy reorganizing society already successful over here -- I'm living in community with people who will be my "tribe" as we raise kids. Which is awesome, that was my last major radical change.
Career alignment will probably come in the next 4 weeks or something, so I'm not too concerned.
I don't agree re: blogging because I'm too social-design pilled. It feels impossible to re-create a society online, physical environments are just TOO important.
@Estimatrix great post! Love how short and sweet it was
@AbstractFairy I think I would join a university of weird nerds. I'd join the modern equivalent of the Baghdad House of Wisdom.
The main problem is that I don't think that institution exists yet, so hope I could figure out the logistics there.
The other major one is having kids, which I would do right away if I knew what I wanted to do for money. I'm in a good career position, but not sure who I want to work with/for..
@ciphergoth I disagree, my AI safety friends are definitely suggesting that the only seat on the space ship out is to work on AI Safety, or some other pre-supposed "cause area which matters"
The destruction of all personal meaning outside of THE APOCALYPSE is the horrifying part of Apocalypse Cults, and def applies in this case, no?
@dfilan love this list, but also some of the major weeb films go so hard.
Evangelion 3.0 + 1.01 SLAPS, and same w/ Gurren Laggan, and Perfect Blue

Love this one. I've had some insanely clarifying experiences about what "the self" is and what my senses are etc on LSD as well -- thank you for sharing, it's a great thread!
@nerdposterino YO, can you see my posts?
@WHALEINFO tell me you're a rationalist without telling me you're a rationalist
nerd in search of even weirder and smarter nerds (especially if they can teach me cool things about computing) nobot
