Interesting idea: should we exterminate pitbulls as a subspecies? Replace all dogs by "nice" breeds like labradors? https://twitter.com/1000PolarBear/status/1473457542932189190

a qualiatative difference
can physical objects be spiritually path-dependent?
consider the Fitbit, a Faustian shackle of the Quantified Self
a yoke around ones wrist, a biometric legibilizer, measuring that which is managed
comprising a trade of akratic plausible deniability for the searing light of shameful self-knowledge, an executive loss of innocence
mirrors, burnt-in with all that has been witnessed through them

In keeping with this account's multi-year tradition, I have drunk an entire bottle of sake solo, so it is time to host my biennial AMA. Go for it.

A better model is that those aspects of humanism and civil rights which benefit unrestrained capital are selected to be implemented, while those which impede it are delayed or memory holed. https://twitter.com/nosilverv/status/1473370020847706115

Most people get to “I don’t even know how to explain it” and stop there — No! It is *precisely* at the edge of your knowledge that you will learn! You must keep going, come up with fresh new language that upheavals your previous concepts and way of making sense of things!

men will literally learn to reconnect with the primal instinct within themselves, to shut out the oversocialized cacophony and listen to the faint but desperate voice of their heart yearning for mastery of one's self and environment, instead of going to therapy

wordcel and rotator are but two sides of the same coin
words are fuzzy manifolds in conceptual space and hence can be rotated
shapes can be represented as constructions of logical statements
there is a wordcel in the rotator and a rotator in the wordcel

sloppy reasoning abounds when a domain becomes politically polarized

smart contracts are one of the coolest fucking things to come out of this entire arena, and to denounce all of “crypto” or “web3” as x y z means you’re throwing out some very powerful babies out with the bathwater

man cannot live on supervisory function alone
neophytes, experiencing these states for the first time, obsess over triggering them repeatedly, convinced they must live their whole lives Maximally Aware
this is understandable, but its not a viable lifestyle; the superego is a supervisory function

the purpose of rituals, spiritual institutions & leaders, is to guide u to these states regularly, as otherwise most of us wouldn't arrive at them
intentional use of psychedelics is another path there, but it is but a toxic shortcut
the goal is to make it there w/o chemical aid
