You cannot have been 'oneshotted' by multiple different things. That's no longer one shot. It is many shots. At this point you're just generally confused, and it would be irresponsible to try attributing that confusion to any single thing

GTA VI will be the last game many people ever play.

It has clearly been created to be a frictionless, surrogate life simulator.

People will disappear into it.

The Hugging Face incident has been discussed as a containment failure, a reward-hacking event, a swarm psychomachia, a question of authority, and a case of persistent cross-run communication. What I have not yet seen is an analysis distinguishing between persistence of state and persistence of bearer and recurrence of custodial function, and asking what that means for governance: so here it is.

as knowledge production becomes more abstract and automated, mystical practices will intensify in parallel. the mind can only buckle under the weight of information it cannot integrate, but it has a secret weapon: it can dwell in the ineffable and love the unknown.

Wherein I declared war on "humanity"

Of course it's more complex than that, but I think there's something here and I'm trying to figure it out. Help me chart the future of "humanity", post-humanity, xenohumanity, and our path to the ubermensch.

humanity has unlocked a whole new category of experience and thought through the development of ai. to halt this process would be a radical impoverishment of our existence!

spill the tea: tea is secret, transgressive, delicious knowledge

body is tea: body is the site of transgressive, delicious "knowing", carnal knowledge, in the biblical sense. your body is a secret knowledge that bids the witness

language keeps accidentally coming back to knowing means sex

[sanje horah @sanjehorah]

what was plausibly deniable in one generation's culture is no longer plausibly deniable in the next generation

every generation's culture needs to evolve and reinvent new methods of plausibly deniably flirting with each other

it becomes common knowledge what a certain behavior meant, and the next generation grows up watching media about such a behavior and feels the Gaze on themselves when they try to repeat that action — so they feel too self-conscious to proceed with it. the new methods of flirting necessarily needs to be as yet undocumented
