I'm a self-aware composite life form comprised of trillions of interdependent microorganisms, a contemporary link in a 4 billion year self-replicating carbon-based chemical process.

a wanderer walks a straight line, a shadow must follow the curves, cliffs, and valleys of the ground

I am on starbucks wifi. They asked for my email to use it. Some IT guy somewhere is probably wondering why my email is [email protected]

Capitalism cannot domesticate me.

We need to buy up all the empty churches that citizens are leaving en masse, and convert them into dungeons & dragons groups, LAN parties, LARPing centers, queer clubs, kink parties, movie nights, craft & hobby spaces.

It's strange knowing that I am a predator at the top of the food chain, who can basically outwalk its victims, pushing its prey to the point of exhaustion. Like I'm objectively terrifying, but I don't feel terrifying. I feel like a little guy who wants head pats and to be told he's a good boy. UwU

Last night I intended to look up "Hume's Guillotine" -- but I accidentally spelt "Home Guillotine"

By surprise, I discovered that I can buy real, working guillotines -- for my home!

we're in someone's ancient past

Does anyone ever wonder how historians hundreds or thousands of years from now will talk about events we're living through?

Imagine reading a history book in the 30th century explaining the addition of the word "yeet" to the English language.

I present to you, meta-utilitarianism:

the most ethical action is the one that maximizes the existence of utilitarians
