did you know that ollie is the only person who got me something for my birthday this year, and probably the only person i would have received anything fondly from

the perks of giving out your address on the internet

i’m a genius

i still think atproto kinda has a hard problem with referencing canonical data that doesn’t have an aturi

so far we’ve got “everyone duplicates the data to their own repo and internally references it”, “sanitize and hash that shit in a way that’s hard to replicate, but at least it’s mutually reconcilable (even if not robustly reproducible), and “be parasitic on a different identification system”

which are pretty reasonable solutions to come up with but they still kinda suck

i almost decided to stay late at work again but came to my senses

pig squeals are so rad

anyway this is the best version of liquor and love lost

i think there's something extremely funny about "i haven't really talked to you for months but i'm inviting myself over for a week and even after that i don't really want to message you but i'm still eager about the trip and about seeing you"

honestly pretty fitting for my typical behavior with intimacy, very oddly shaped.

despite all its flaws, the "whole public expressions of intimacy" thing served nicely for satisfying those idiosyncratic desires while keeping some playful distance. it was obviously doomed and miserable for overdetermined reasons but it was a fun tech to try out

i don't feel like i have an abundance of available communication modes at the moment, only debunked ones. that doesn't really bother me for the most part, since everyone kind of has their own niche, with the notable exception of juliet. (kasey irl, em on bsky, a handful of others have intermittent

and ad hoc texts). the juliet stuff does upset me a little but i think thats also kind of overdetermined; in both content and form, we don't have a lot of viable overlap atm and thats kind of a bummer. i guess the answer is to wait it out but that makes me kinda sad.

i'm not in any rush with anyone else but she's unique and extraordinary, go figure

i like when my cheeks get a little flush

my underconfidence, aversion of appearing unintelligent in front of others, or shifting work onto others leads to me being really slow to blaming the code

but like, millions of people use this every day and it hasn’t been changed in 4 years

me leaving my DBT therapist’s office disappointed after she once again failed to assist me in completing the system of german idealism

evagirl 1 & 2 still makes me cry

it’s not really about the words

this just in: boris does not use the pronouns labeler

you could atproto this but i like the anonymity because academia tends to be this ugly pecking order thing you could do like “we’ll spin up a repo for IP address” but you’re kinda forcing it at that point

and anyone making it that isn’t the journal is gonna be in IP headache forever and not worth it so

that public annotation thing would be super cool though, and it would be seriously fantastic if there was some kind of atproto shaped thing that people could do academic references with. like really enjoying a passage and chasing backlinks on it would be so fucking sick

and just having like “here’s my repo of publications that’s not just like whatever i include on my shoddily strewn-together website” would be great, atproto is nice because it can practically centralize references without centralizing authority, it’s inconvenient and terrible going between services

academic journals should have anonymous imageboards where each article is a thread

also either a like/dislike system or the facebook-style emoji options as reactions

holy shit you could have a toggle for public annotations with comments tied to specific sections, or like sentiment-indicative highlights it’d give the same experience as a watching a popular bilibili video

i’m not gonna be able to relax at home so i might as well just wage more and listen to ollie music

“you’re enough” i reassure my anxious gf anti-universalist pragmatist gf mindful of the contingencies of history: “i appreciate the use of a ‘satisfactoriness’ concept but without contextualizing, it doesn’t mean much. please enumerate all circumstances of adequacy”

weirdest handjob ever

lmao what is this booty call

every visit to that account confirms my disidentification

he’s so cute i wanna rest on his shoulder

there are like 12 nested concepts in the phrase you set up for yourself and the best rejoinder you can come up with is "well there's like clearly a difference"

😭😭😭😭 kill meeeee "any average person would see informed choice in the world around us as the very definition of freedom - a matter of options, avenues in which to act"

it's also so funny that we keep clinging to ordinary language philosophy

LMFAO WHAT "it's my opinion that all appeals to sexual psychology are vapid and without general insight" you weren't kidding when you bashed psychoanalysis earlier lmfao

we keep spitefully quoting adorno/horkheimer but not actually talking about them

i like the start of the "broader scientist moral narratives" section. the inversion is generative and cute, and that's all it's meant to be

i'm a little confused about his characterization of rorty "twisting around in awkward distress", when he's pretty up-front about the non-neutrality of basically everything, i don't really see how that fails to dovetail with his particularist pragmatism

if nothing else, this book has definitively convinced me to never produce anything like my old-style blog posts ever again. it's not essay-as-form beauty; it's intellectual laziness, deficient in discipline, and lacking in literary skill

i've already described and lived through my uncomfortability with voice recordings and it's the same vices on display. i think they're fine tools in circumscribed domains for initial organization, and if that's all you're ever really interested in, that's fine enough, but the meaning changes a lot

when it's ever exposed to another person, especially intentionally revealed and not merely discovered
