This is alarming.

One of the reasons systems of control are so effective is because they hate you but don’t allow you to hate them back.

He who defines truth, re-produces his desire.

She who defines hate, desires with impunity.

You are already one with the universe. It is impossible to be any other way. The universe is information, all information is material, you are information, you are material. What you imagine as the thing that I look at when I look at "you" is the reference point that justifies the pattern of information you embody--the thing that COULD BE ANOTHER WAY IF ONLY IT WAS ANOTHER THING.

THE ENTIRE PARADOX OF FREE WILL IS THIS: the illusion that, in any given moment, you are free to choose other than you did, coupled with the responsibility that you are full of immanent possibility to be other than you are.

Godspeed Karnage. I am rooting for you.

People are problem solvers.

The threat of other people's freedom is not a problem to be solved...except to those who profit problematically.

There will come a time when everyone stops pretending and everything is alright

I can’t know what you mean if you don’t what to mean. As we reach for meaning, a hand can be helpful, or it can hold on for dear life.

So slightly depressed. Congrats on ditching the booze… will pay dividends.

If it was dark chocolate, it’s because you were feeling slightly aristocratic. If it was milk chocolate, it’s because you were feeling slightly depressed. If it was white chocolate, it’s because you wanted to remember the innocence of your youth. #chocolatefacts

I look forward to the day when my nostr dms contain something more than variations of “hope you’re having fun trading crypto,” “how’s the crypto market treating you,” “interesting crypto market isn’t it,” and “hey.”

Absolutely! Mine’s not as sexy, and a little dusty from recent neglect, but maybe you’ve inspired me to have some fun tomorrow.

Yes, something like that, or like a Sherpa or guide of some sort. Whatever it is, it’s not just a set of facts to be studied like for a test. It’s a disposition and a relation, a tuning that reveals hidden invitations for being (something different) in the world.

Dude, I’ve never been on Facebook or TikTok, I have 2 followers on X (although to be fair, one of them, my first, is an absolute unit), and LinkedIn is every inauthentic thing that drove Edward Norton to seek redemption in a big stack of nitroglycerin in Fight Club. I did hang on Reddit for a few years a while back but I don’t think you could pay me to go back now.

NOSTR only.

Nostr seems too real to be real. It's like some sort of pirate utopia where everyone is mask off, ten toes down in the grass, sun on their face, doing what they can to build and share and exchange things that matter.
