damn every single individual is like an intergenerational snowball of cultural experiences and psy ops hurtling through time

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

interesting and scary how all of this manifest destiny stuff was basically theory-fiction that willed itself into existence. they couldn’t not picture themselves marching forward on the time line. every decision, a microcosm of some kind of absolute spirit

the most maddening thing about covid is that it Stays, in an era in which we're so used to forgetting about Events a day after they occur

@visakanv this is my favorite part of any wikipedia page... really gives you a sense of the intellectual context

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

@visakanv here’s some choice quotes you’d be into

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

the three comma punctuation mark,,,

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

our scientists make for kind of lame spiritual gurus tbh

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

has anyone written about the Conway family’s cross-platform grift? like the husband is a WaPo writer who “hates” tr*mp and kellyanne obviously has her schtick and the daughter has gotten big on tiktok by “hating” her mom

sometimes congregating and stopping to oogle. but the twitter interface necessarily makes us feel like we're at the *center* of the universe

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

i don't think stadium is the right metaphor for a big twitter account. implies a captive audience that's only watching *your* show. it's more like you're a painting on the wall in a very crowded museum and the masses of people are just flowing by you

Sometimes when I wanna remember how weird this all is, I look up the stadium with seating capacity closest to my follower count. This is yours, Olympic Stadium in Montreal

i wonder if anyone's written a typographic history of the bubbly handwriting style that somehow finds its way to every 6th grade girl in America

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

why do people say 'signaling' instead of 'communicating'

@kneelingbus i hate that these tweets always make me smirk what have you done to my sense of humor !

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

@pieratt either one. i was just curious if maybe we use that phrase in different ways

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

i think minimum viable “enlightenment” is basically recognizing that there are other consciousness styles besides your own default and that different media ecolologies give rise to totally different modes

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]

@pieratt what comes to mind for you when you say the phrase consciousness mode

[finite turtle @infiniturtle]
