people who’ve never felt what it’s like to be in a relationship with a non-abuser love to tell you what an abuser uses, without considering that perhaps regular people also use it for normal reasons

i’m just saying “perfect” mind uploading also relies on these relationships to be qualitative

anyway, my actual point is that this “half akashic archive” is still immensely useful! and it emotionally makes me feel like i’m witnessing the invention of the mirror

this is the kernel of hope that mind uploading as an idea is built on, no? otherwise it just turns into ghost-dubbing

watered down akashic records: merely all that which we can index, without words unwritten; thus at best a bound interface into capital-produced rhizomes

been feeling the same with reading something like 크리스피롤 in korean and taking half a beat to realize it’s “crispy roll”. between this and japanese, it’s a great exercise for learning additional shapes of words we already know and love
