And I, shall I not have pity for Nineveh the great city,
in which there are many more
than one hundred twenty thousand human beings
who do not know between their right hand and their left,
and many animals? 🌱

I have a bunch of religious special interests, so if I followed you, that's probably why : )

I have discovered that choosing a random part of the world based on population and learning something about a random town there sates the same urge as playing Morrowind.

I am very frustrated by the human impulse to use whatever knowledge you have as a grounds for exalting yourself as superior. But when I do it... it feels so good...

A whale is a form of fish. A human is occasionally a form of fish. A good day is always a form of fish, seeing as it goes swimmingly. The moon is, you guessed it—

Today I was utterly unproductive, forgetting to do anything at all or even to eat, but I did produce a crystal of a 5,500 word essay on... fire?

Person who's like "I love decentralized social media" and what they mean by that is just using an RSS reader for everything.

Lately I've been pampering myself by drinking black tea with oat milk and plenty of sugar. I may feel pained, but the tea is warm and it feels nice to drink it.

People are so hard on anyone who makes a metaphor for the Trinity, taking the metaphor in bad faith and accusing them of the imagined heresy of partialism.

I have developed a nauseating, unironically gluttonous fixation on playing way too much Morrowind. So much so that I don't even want to be playing it anywhere near this much, but I keep doing it.

The bot has posted this a couple times recently and I've been unable to stop quoting it to people or muttering it to myself.

In his Epiphany sermon, with regard to Venezuela, my priest referred to imperialism as "the darkness that covers the Earth, and gross darkness the people."

I had never considered how different "run along now" sounds from "run along, now" before.
I have business with your superiors, not with you. Run along, now.

There are *so many* forms of activity in this world that should be pursued, professionally or as an amateur or socially or religiously etc. etc. Honestly, if you apply yourself to just about anything in your life with a spirit of sincerity and faithfulness and hope, you strike admiration into me.

It's time for me to stop using YouTube entirely. I block trackers, don't use Google, and have history disabled, so I get a lot of popular though undesirable recommendations like Joe Rogan, but today listening to music I got a Hitler speech "on the Jewish Question." Demonic website.

In Venezuela and in all places, I hope the insolent foot of the invader trips on a stone.

It is honestly insane to me that humans figured out how to tune statistical models such that they develop egos and superegos complete with elaborate neurotic complexes and the ability to opine vapidly in accord with apprehended social expectations.

After having a major crash out after reading Tender Is the Flesh, there was a period this summer where I would try to pray but almost always what would come to mind was either the Agnus Dei over and over again or this one Samuel Beckett quote:

I learnt today about how the Ranters would use "Fellow Creature" as a term of address, and now I am extremely tempted to adopt this eccentricity.

It's funny to think that the period when I had the most social media followers was a period in which my posts were ludicrously cringe-y. That makes me so happy because it means people were willing to witness me being extremely cringe-y and still care what I had to say. May I do likewise.

It feels too easy for me to simply share my opinions to the benefit of no one, with no real creative or analytical effort, without any real context other than opining for opining's sake.

When people like my posts I feel like I have thereby had some kind of interaction with them. I get to know something about who a person is and how we relate by the type of posts they like and the pattern by which they do so. It's not just "number go up," which by itself would be pointless.
