She has no power levels. Fuckin’ ... I’d be pissed if her fragile self was getting in the way, too.

Sue him for sexual harassment. Actually, scratch that, he could just be awkward. Sue him for regular harassment.

Yes you can. What happens to the “n”?
-
Yes. It’s a thing I heard people talk about when I was young and developed a favorite color over time to fit in.

Mmhm thanksh for stopping through

"Dimension" and "dementia" are very similar sounding words

What if we changed it so it sounded like the “ine” in “tine”? -
Depends on what happened at those retreats and what his and his families values are. What’s the company? Is he grinding billions of babies into a paste so he can cover the earth side of the moon with a baby smoothie? These are important questions.

Family bonds help people develop into not shitty people, love in their lives. Modern humans have lost a lot of that. These bonds were stronger, when life was harder, you know...

Machines belong to no one. Operating program, public information. If a house was made, the purpose was for people to have a place to live, not to fucking play monopoly.

Everyday I fear for the future of humanity.

Ideas are all that’s left. Money is obsolete.

No, money is definitely obsolete. XD

There are more and more homeless people every year. Machine automated abundance has generated the excess energy needed to produce a very large population while ironically ensuring those people have no chance to earn money because they were born into a situation where machines are already doing all the work that keeps us alive. Automation is the product of science, which makes their labor the common heritage of all human beings.

I did not mean to imply that homelessness is an inevitability. Jobs are not what people need anymore. If your work isn’t abstract and creative, a machine could do it better than you. There will never be enough of that work to go around. See the problem, here? You’re talking about adapting WITHOUT questioning a ten thousand year old school of thought? Money is obsolete...

I don’t think it is subjective. I did not mean to imply that homelessness = enlightenment, just that homelessness is used to scare people into a position where, A: it’s harder to achieve (nearly impossible) and B: access to even the benefits of mental practice for laypersons who may not achieve Satori are also severely restricted. It’s sort of like a mob grinder in Minecraft, only more complicated. It’s set up so there are only a limited number of probabilities, which do not include thinking for yourself, not being hooked on instant gratification, etc.

Case and point. Would you still do all that shit if being homeless weren’t all that bad?
-
That was my point. The implication is that it’s better to work for the system than to live like that. By “that” I meant homelessness...

My nose is currently broken due to calculated risks that were taken. I stood up for what was right. Most people who prattle on about that kind of stuff don’t understand how dangerous it is when you’re doing something that could actually have an impact...

They’re used to scare people into submission. Better to work yourself to the bone for scraps and deny your brain the opportunity to absorb any constructive patterns mutually exclusive with extensive periods of menial labor than to live like that. The necessity of physical productivity must be balanced with psychological, what most would call spiritual work. There are consequences for neglecting either one. Here in America, at least, not many are resourceful or informed enough to make time for this on their own, then they get spoon fed a bunch of bullshit information that is not... uh .... psycho-spiritually nutritious, so to speak. It’s almost like we need to do a shift where things are inverted, machines are doing the physical labor and the strict expectation is for people to focus on healing their spirit for a while...

I worked in a paper bag factory. Checked the bags for defects at the end of the line on the machine. Had to check lots of them really fast, was still learning the job, Asian machine operator turned the speed up well beyond my capacity to keep up, I wound up boxing a bunch of defective bags, it wasn’t really my fault, but he blames me and compares me to the women on morning shift, as if their gender had everything to do with their work performance and not how long they had been doing the job. I wanted to hurt him for being a misogynist piece of shit but he was a sad little old man. Long story short, I had to help a piece of garbage make garbage and it made me feel like garbage.
