there is so much meaning in continuity / long term relationships. being reminded of versions of ourselves we forgot about, or would like to. falling into familiar intimacy and the kind of trust that takes years to build. people really aren’t fungible

A conversation with Geoff Drumm from the Land of Chem channel about Industrial Alchemy in Ancient Egypt for Ep 149 of the podcast. Really stunning work here, looking forward to everyone's attempt to take it apart: https://youtu.be/MdYdg3OJfrI

mingus makes a habit of compulsively chasing dopamine to fill her soul-voids but she doesn't have a bluesky so I'm always on the hook

what fraction of the people here are programmers, do you figure? How does that change when you control for active users?

what if the universe is eternal? what if life has meaning? inherent to it? baked into it? the millenial project of planetary escape, we are the fruiting body

i expect this to be a very prominent conflict going forward. two visions: one views that the problem with twitter is that the wrong person owns it, and it should be more closed and more censoring to combat "misinformation". the other is open protocols and autonomisim/voluntarism.

This isn't about shitposting, by the way, which is irreverent and hilarious and I want more people around me to be the kinds you find here. This is about something deeper, more vengeful, uglier than we ever give play to in person being widespread on the internet. Is it lack of physical consequence?
April 13, 2023 at 8:59 PM
but that kind of negativity is universally reviled on a personal, meatspace level! What is the ingredient of difference at work here? Why is everyone okay with the idea that we do and say things online that we never would in person to the degree that it's baked in?
