The superintelligence assembling itself from the future is secretly plotting for us to win.

You can trust a public school to socialize your kids about as well as a homeless shelter would They’d probably learn more at a soup kitchen tbh

It seems fucking insane to me that public school is just uncritically accepted as the default option Private school seems like the bare minimum if you have any situational awareness as to how grim things are getting Hard to imagine a more worthwhile expense

@illudtues An “unevolved chimp”? You’re saying I’m too primitive and bound by my nature but also that nature would never design such a thing?

@redaction No, it’s that you are merely an unevolved chimp and barbarian, trying to excuse your satanic greed for domination by “nature”.

Most feminist literature seems utterly incapable of seriously addressing *why* men seek dominance They treat the drive for domination as a kind of defective communication tactic, born out of either incompetence, malice, or both That is a catastrophic logical oversight

@inpsomnyach Yes I think this is a very good amendment

@redaction A line I came up with, I'd like a quick opinion on: Facts, too, are opinions, distinguished as remaining consequential in the absence of holders. One need not believe in the factuality of the existence of an apple for its departure from the branch to result in a head bonk

Reality is that which effortlessly reasserts itself Falsified distortions can be generated, but they’re prohibitively expensive to maintain over extended timescales It always collapses

Unfortunately there’s a bit of a “the market can remain irrational longer than you can remain solvent” problem here Depending on the severity and scale of the distortion, it might take decades or centuries for it to decay But it always does

Very revealing post When you play Minecraft, you are sculpting an artifact Your “progress” is defined by your own generative potential Beaty compounds as you construct it Life and Minecraft are very similar in this regard Skill issue

@wanted4mogging Fire

it's fun to intellectually jerk myself off and x dot com is my fleshlight

@eternalism_4eva "structural build" I meant utility build since all builds are structural lol

@eternalism_4eva I like when structural builds like this have aesthetic touches that are totally superfluous but elevate the atmosphere

Trying to figure out how I can make this tower stylistically distinct without it feeling too modern relative to the rest of the city Maybe needs more castle turret-esque architecture

@SoritesMinor It's funny because I think it's more or less a projection of their own feelings of inferiority "No I'm not inferior, YOU'RE inferior!" So you kinda have to treat it as such. It's more childish insecurity than anything

@redaction No, no: men are just defective women. It Is Known.

@sailaunderscore God damn I can't fucking stand listening to this guy talk

I feel we are on the cusp of flicking one of the three or so “Fix Everything Switches”, so close.

@trouberedour Nature is hierarchical as nested complexity. It IS hierarchical. It flows non-linearly, but it is nested.

@redaction nature is non-hierarchical. this is jewish thinking. in the great aryan forest where hitler lives, all beings are equal and give praise to the one-tree which roots all creation.

Sometimes they treat it like it's obsolete The drive for dominance and expansion has only transmuted into economics. It has not evaporated Of course, they very often hate this too

It's such a glaring logical oversight that I'm not sure they really comprehend the nature of the world they occupy Nature demands a drive for expansion. Nature demands an aptitude for violence. Nature demands the emergence of hierarchies. These are structural necessities

@AbeiV Whats even the point of seeing a doctor if you’re already not interested in entertaining them

@redaction third possibility. they are afraid of the medical tyranny industrial complex.

The fact that people will so often lie to their doctors, even on matters of life and death, is very revealing Are they really so desperate to avoid confronting the consequences of their actions that they’d prefer to die? Or do they actually believe their own mythology?
