lecturing a class is like being the king of talking
Mythopoetic gf who keeps having to go pee when it rains
space occupied by 1 person develops a particularly kind of messiness. It can be clean, even organized, but it's "illegible". The placement of any object requires no (internal, psychological, reflexive!) justification to another party and so is freely chosen, idiosyncratically.

Rule number one: never kill yourself. Rule number 2: do whatever you want forever. Rule number 3: be funny
When you're talkative you IMPOSE yourself on someone, they process it involuntarily. remove space for themness, fill it with youness. producing a lot of text is impotent. The other person has to drag their eyes along your words. No good. I need speaker access to everyone's phone

confused we havent had more cyberattacks in the past year. LLMs boosting security faster than attack? the anti-cyber controls work really well? (but open source is pretty good now!). ive heard there's more like automated scams. but that's not really the same thing

gifting should be the kind of thing you do when inspiration strikes, and not something you do on birthdays or Christmas
the end of the world seems appreciably less bad than any particular person dying. which might just mean that i (we, perhaps?) am stupid?
the archons want u to care abt ur job but unfortunately not caring abt your job is kind of soul sucking. so its a toughie
math is hard but it's not good BECAUSE it's hard. it's good because it's alien(? uncertain of this). and it's hard because it's alien? look it's not clear why it's good. but it definitely not good because it's hard. lots of things are hard and not all of them are good.

pure math is obvsort of unreal. it doesnt assert its reality by interfacing with reality very often. but it's realer-than-real. its like the sun. plato. its foreign and distant and learnting things about it is really hard and not very useful. but its also transcendent?

in my culture (UMC PMC) making a lot of money is synonymous w/ adulthood. but this is not some cultural universal! many american adults are like, pretty poor! median household income in the US is about 90k. you can be a "full adult" who pulls no dough!

I'm on a medicine that makes my pee a sort of bluegreen which means now if I forget to flush it looks like there's just some weird cleaner fluid in the bowl. Life hack
corgi Cafe yesterday. shitty café that happens to be open at night. The only thing to gawk at was this ycombinator office hours simulator which hatecrimes you by putting a strangers face on your body. The microphone didn't work so it was totally nonfunctional

So many themed chalk abgs but almost all of them just stick the chalk hole somewhere convenient, top of the head, the back, wherever. Have some creativity! Make it a mouth, a belly button, anything! Incorporate it!

@transgendererer they should make the train car leak water when you’re under water from little pre filled tanks in the ceiling
It should feel like something to cross water via tunnel. don't like that it feels like an under-land tunnel. should be like bridges. Similarly bad that plane travel gives you ~zero sense of land youre crossing over (even looking out the window! Cloudland up there). Car+train W
