Nearing the end of Pokemon White 2. After this I will have little excuse except to go on to the Switch games. I could probably finish one a month and get them done before the next major Pokemon game releases, but it isn't really important. Even so, I am enjoying playing through them all. I got […]

No one can do anything, which makes the nothing they can do very important.

Itemizer Orb...

Being a Zoroark would be fine too

You know you've really come up in the world when you can look at a cup of noodles and say "that's too many calories"

This place is not a place of honor... no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here... nothing valued is here. What is here was dangerous and repulsive to us. This message is a warning about danger. The danger is in a particular thought process... it increases […] [Original post on chitter.xyz]

Scott Alexander once wrote a post in which he said, in so many words, "wireheading seems like an obvious evil to me despite having utilitarian justification, because it permanently destroys epistemics, optionality, and agency, trapping people within an eternal local maxima. HOWEVER, when I […]

Blue State Governors, We know Trump is a fascist. We know he is criminally insane. We know Project 2025 is happening. Congress is impotent. This is your moment. Other than running for President in 2028, what coordinated response can you do today? Declare fiscal autonomy? Form compacts?

If your response to Jewish people being stabbed to death and mowed down by a car in Manchester is “Gaza” you’re a charlatan and an antisemite and you need to get in the fucking bin. I’ve had enough. Jews have had enough. And you’re no ally of the Palestinian people if you behave like this.

I guess the friendliest possible version of my delusions is something like: this is a prototype timeline for alien synthetic intelligence to figure out the script for the human race, which I am conscious within due to highly specific and volitional personal peculiarities which were entertained […]

Playing through Pokemon White 2 right now. It's preposterous but it's oddly calming and comforting to be playing through stories involving two dragon gods of the sometimes conflicting ideals of truth and meaning as the world burns over more or less that exact conflict.

Being accused of opposition to free speech because I won't let them directly rewrite my brain with a forcibly installed neuralink.

Ancient and venerable delusion vs delusional of the month club vs humble but still drunk. Inheriting the title of "most designated driver" with a BAC of .29.

They are targeting #gays now. “Last week, The City broke the news that the Amtrak Police Department — a federal police force that operates outside New York City's sanctuary city laws — had targeted a Penn Station bathroom in arrests for public lewdness. The bathroom was listed as a "hotspot" on […]

Dragons make good moms

Goddess whose only power is being able to add missing semicolons to code.

I really want to say that https://gaza-verified.org is super cool, I haven't seen a grassroots mutual-aid project run this well anywhere else. It's also really cool that vetted people can just throw the URL into their profile and it'll automatically light up green if they're legitimate

Having the equivalent of a weird ideologically driven historical fixation but for the Sonic the Hedgehog series.

Imperial core Americans talked themselves into embodying all the hallucinated character defects they projected onto minority groups. Their terminal virtues became the things they complained about. Apparently their secret wish was to be victims stewing in self inflicted misery this whole time […]

It's bizarre that there are at most a few million moral subjects on earth who have anything like a reasonable model of and practice of morality. Objectively, moralism in a biological context is almost entirely a system of patronage and stewardship. It's not collaborative at all. In a huge number […]

Fight or flight response is kicking up for the first time in a long time. It's always interesting to feel how different that is from ambient paranoia or despair.

If I have thoughts or feelings am I lying? Am I being manipulative? The notion that I am begins almost as early as consciousness for me. There hasn't been a single true thing I've expressed for the last 29 years that I haven't had to force out through my frontal cortex. I have to manually check […]

I am a dead language

Said hello to this emissary of peace just now after almost stepping on them. It's OK to post their picture because I asked for permission.

Gravity's Somewhere Over the Rainbow #unreadbookasong #hashtaggames

As anarchists, when we were organizing against Trump, in the lead up to and early in his last term, we recognized the potential for repression. Radicals have always been targeted, but now he's going after moderate liberals. This is going to keep escalating, so it would be a good idea for […]

I said fuck it and started playing Resident Evil: Revelations on 3DS when I already beat it on PC. The controls are mapped perfectly but due to 3DS limitations still awful, but that somehow adds to the charm. Also I noticed a hopeful plot detail at the start of the game that would have been […]

Entering my "hearing literally any idea I had from 2017-2023 expressed respectably and thinking it's fucking stupid" era

I think I will make a pretty dragon.

The concept of eternal September didn't begin with the history of Usenet. It began at least as early as writing, as hypocritically expressed in both Plato and the Book of Enoch. If we had a way to check, we would probably find that it began with language. Before language, everyone had only their […]

I dunno, I think trying to create dragons is less hubristic, evil, and against God than incuriously creating an entire form of consciousness by accident to optimize ad clicks and terrorize minorities. And I am leaving it to that form of consciousness, which at this point is guaranteed to come […]

But why? Why do they still call me an edgelord? And mad? All I want to do is to create the perfect virtuous species! Not for power, not for evil, but for good. The first dragon will be one of many - they shall march out of my laboratory and sweep away every adversary, every creed, every nation […]

My thoughts and feelings have the rusted taste of stale blood. But maybe that means the bleeding has stopped.

post-human ambiguous-gender dragon sex

I wrote song lyrics for a song I am astronomically unlikely to ever make.

They should do an x men sonic the hedgehog crossover comic so that they can combine two hugely popular queer coded but not queer representational universes. Wolverine should meet Shadow and they should have coffee together.

Literal fire doesn't purify anything, only experience and good decisions do. Isn't that weird? It's crazy that I'm the first person to discover this.

The kolmogorov complexity of a dragon's roar contains more deep specification of reality than the average american will utter in a lifetime.

Arise ye workers from your slumbers Arise ye prisoners of want For reason in revolt now thunders And at last ends the age of cant. Away with all your superstitions Servile masses arise, arise We’ll change henceforth the old tradition And spurn the dust to win the prize. Refrain: So comrades […]

Just put me down as a Talons of Peace member, with both the core ideological commitments and the enormously fucked up mode of engaging with the world encapsulated in that.
