when the tree i planted years ago grew into a fucked up and unsettling shape

Highveld summer lol

in 50 years, no one will remember the names Sam Altman, Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, except maybe as case studies for future students reading about why the 2020s were so fucked up

but no, the only application the fucking parasites can imagine is one where everyone who has ever asked for a raise is laid off and the rest toil away with eyes downcast forever.

like fuuuuuuck dude, we might be able to talk to whales? in a couple years? i could say "howzit boet" to an orca? and he could go "hell yea brother"? how is that not one of the coolest things we've ever invented?

like if you just claim to be "at war" with a non state actor that is operating entirely within the borders of a neighbouring state, and you strike targets that you claim are affiliated with that non-state actor, then it's not an act of war by "nuh uh im not touching you" rules
