I prayed to be free, and I found myself even deeper, now within a new swamp. Pray for me, for I may one day succeed in leaving this toxicity behind.

There's a person on here I love, but they are on here way WAY too much, to the point where they have online enemies and grudges and stuff. I wanna tell them to delete bsky and twt, but it feels cruel to say so

Interesting tweet of the day: A polish person quoting a tweet about a holocaust victim. They say the tweet was using the tragedies of victims to spread propoganda (the tweet doesn't directly mention israel but the og had zionist in bio so...). But then they refer to this as "My history of my people"

Pareidola is said to be an evolved trait, but isn't it just a side effect of... seeing? Neural networks have pareidola too, but no one trained them to have it, just a side effect of being trained to "see"

Wikipedia says offspring evolve to maximise parental investment in themselves at a cost to their sibilings. Wouldn't it make evolutionary sense for the offspring to cause its mother's infertility? Maybe by destroying the womb on exit? I wonder why no animal has evolved like this yet

If a=b and b=c then a=c, but if a~=b and b~=c then not necessarily a~=c. In fact a~=b also does not imply b~=a even though the difference between the numbers is identical in both cases (19 is about 20, but 20 isn't about 19)
