i think taking primarily philosophy courses ruined my brain forever on how to deal with listening to presentations. i maintain this skeptical and suspended attitude, like it’s a thought experiment or hypothetical. i’m always shocked when the information is applicable in a direct context.
me finding a new music genre: omg its so kewl! so much music all in the same style, how convenient :)
me after getting familiar with a genre: i hate genres i hate categories i hate conception abolish language i am the antichrist
it feels great to solve an issue you’ve been working on for a week and realize the only thing you’ve accomplished is to strengthen the enforcement arm of capital 🙂
the gulf between social interaction that drains me, saps me of life, requires subsequent recovery and that which invigorates, fulfills, injects with vitality, and feels like home is vast and palpable. it’s not merely a matter of enjoyment, it feels a qualitatively distinct mode of experience.
girls will really download github projects, struggle with wine prefixes, give up and switch operating systems, transfer files to hard drives with mutually compatible file formats, and create their own cover art before checking the description to see if an instrumental version already exists
it’s incredibly stressful, disorienting, scary to rapidly shift between radically different identity masks, especially when this one has thorns inside and i’m coerced into putting it on
post-feuerbachean marxist account of how going on going on SS forums and reading people's detailed plans make me feel less suicidal as a compensatory fantasy, but that the desire will persist until the material cause of suffering is alleviated.
every time someone comes over to my place i need to screw my lightbulbs back in so they can “see in front of themselves” and “not run into things”. whats up with that?
obvi the guys an idiot but i’m genuinely curious what context would make this level of granularity actually useful (also lmao gold star you tried @ trans options)
it took me a while after being exposed to the term 'pair-bond' that it was being used to mean exclusive monogamous partnership. it's still kinda goofy to me; can you pls just be more forthright with your ideological commitments for the autistic homies in the chat
the semantic meaning of lyrics are usually far less significant than their sonic contribution. the voice is just one instrument among many, and music that treats it as such is usually far more compelling.
postone's chapter on abstract time was the one's that stuck with me the least on my first reading, so i'm excited to revisit it now that i can appreciate it more viscerally.
i’ve always found it very compelling to look at how people use software without the opportunity to explain why. the legibilizing is always ad hoc, i want to explore the decontextualized usage.
i wish she would record hours and hours of her just talking. i love her voice, i love her thoughts. for the people i admire, i honestly think that’s my ideal relationship. just consuming their ideas one-sidedly on my own terms.
i dont understand why people want to maintain moralistic concepts when it’s clearly so cumbersome. just say that this is violence and that you’re okay with it. you don’t even have to jump to “justifying” it, since that already assumes violence is inherently or even primarily evil by default.
it’s very silly but messaging people and not getting a reply right away can sometimes make me extremely self conscious and anxious. and then like 5% of my brain’s RAM is dedicated to worrying about it until i hear something back or decide to let it go. i need to work on that somehow, very unhealthy
lol i added the firefox delay blocker to my filers and it's so much faster. fuck google.
