a lot of interesting things come out of affirming what is, and all the different ways to get there carry distinct evaluative criteria: slavish inversion, eternal recurrence, self-actualization of the world spirit

wrap up this task and head back to the hegel mines

pinboards has outsize emotional significance to me because it was a rather transparent love letter

i shouldn't reference it so much but it makes me happy

i have too much admiration for josephine the singer, i'm aware of this tendency. earnest failures are still failures, i know, but...

the purity of failure is more romantic because it keeps the fantasy alive

you cut yourself off from disappointment, it's soothing and anxiety-easing

this is why i have to listen to albums, basking in the miasma of half-realizations is stultifying

shake off the sentiment !

the eternal spectre of pinboards

i admire people with the humility and curiosity to ask simple questions. the laurens "he/they" post was cute

those questions are also fun because it has people attempting to articulate something that feels natural and automatic

i’m gonna keep being a degenerate today and be responsible once the work week starts

intersectionality has broken everybody's brains, you have to realize its not radical to be completely incapable of thinking of in depth about an individual concept without immediately escaping to all of its manifestations and interlinkages. congrats you figured out isolated immediacy is insufficient

but that doesn't move you beyond shallow muddy waters. you can kick your feet all you want but it just makes the problem worse.

its also just easier. you never have to understand everything if you can just talk about how Big Bad 1 is also Big Bad 2 and 3 and 4 and...

write characters with emotions that don't act like retarded children challenge: impossible

i have jellyfishjoy

k4mi is just that good

i've gotta be on my period bc i'm bawling my eyes out

i just want to know if i was on your mind

ah fuck dawg u broke out the claves its over for me

god damn it i told myself i would be doing trad albums and then latin american shoegaze soundcloud hooks me right back in

columbian eboys understand me

rather than community lexcions i think experimenting with an general purpose repo would be interesting, so for problems where you'd normally have to turn to an app-specific db you can have a public repo that everyone can reference

you'd still of course need the app layer unless you got clever with rkeys, and even then in most cases you'd still want one but the option is there

not that i even think this is a good idea or even in the spirit of the protocol but it'd be a fun thing to play with

alr lowkirkenuinely ts has a great premise that goes painfully underutilized and rapidly becomes super generic

its cold do u wanna cuddle

putting myself in danger so i can experience the suspension bridge effect

they have a name for that you know: anxious attachment style

critical theory grad student with a distaste for the reification of her anxious attachment style but also a distaste for the demands of authenticity so her solution is to put herself in actual danger

what i had in mind with the authenticity bit was like not having qualms with manufacturing a scenario for yourself to experience a desired emotional state

duuuuuude jungle is so good

its not rehabilitative justice bro, its called kindness

this rocks my socks thanks laurens

the ice guy and his cool female colleague is so kademillow-coded

no freakin way theres a fox girl too

CUTE

shotacon fanservice is peak

on my old repo i imported my anilist to skylights but looks like its abandoned now in favor of popfeed. they both use tmdb ids so they have anime in addition to other media, no anime/manga exclusive thing afaik (but i stopped paying attention ages ago)

on this point most media related stuff does external reference stuff like that, i do think it’s one of the more annoying atproto problems bsky.app/profile/m1em...

like u kinda would like to be doing aturi refs but it just doesn’t exist, so u either reference something independent, have something appview specific (ick), or try to shove everything into the individual record bsky.app/profile/nick...

wait its like 1am wtf

literally me

all josei anime ranked: 1. nana 2. recovery of an mmo junkie 3. [...]

okay grok what is "recency bias"

the precarious quote about the american child with ice cream is more fitting to describe the value i see in the attitude combined with how uncomfortably situated the whole affair is

he has plenty of other passages about childhood and its relation to happiness but this has always been my favorite
