@DeepDishEnjoyer What if they believed it too much

[Orin "Z." Best @Orinz]

@lumpenspace I too love the usage (I read the damn paper) but OPs perspective… "artificial" semionts? Humanities are bad "for study"? Ooh, it gives me a case of the hot takes in a fiery way.

(Let's just appreciate that this is WHY the term needs to get popular, so such takes can happen!)

Rain falls backward

The hum of neon

A bird-shaped shadow dissolves into static

Memory flickers like old film

@TeamYouTube My Google account was compromised last night, w the attacker adding their own verification methods immediately. I have a linked YT account and it was recommended to ask you folks for help... what are my chances? 🤞😬

[Orin "Z." Best @Orinz]

@TeamYouTube Still in the lurch here, but I'll know if the 48-hour recovery method works soon. Is there another place I can dm @TeamYouTube ?

[Orin "Z." Best @Orinz]

@TeamYouTube Unfortunately they appear to have changed everything. I still have access to the recovery email, but reset codes get sent to the compromised email. I posted on the Account Help Forum https://t.co/Ht1e9Bvy5A

You know those fridge logic moments I sometimes have with deafness/asl? Well guess who found out about the Markovian Parallax Denigrate yesterday, and should now never be trusted with a captive sign language interpreter ever again… https://t.co/jqeeAhzhQI

Instead, what psychedelic use really looks like? A random assortment of white-collar workers at a park on the weekend playing Calvinball.

[Orin "Z." Best @Orinz]

Probably the worst social aspect of psychedelic use: ppl often intentionally imagine wrongly what it looks like. Cheezy hippie magick or freakouts or brainwashing... those stock concepts are mostly just to help us feel like we're not missing out.

I remember 2015 when I was sitting naked in a hot tub telling people I'd discovered this new video genre that was helping me confront some social discomfort I still had. That genre, I said, was called "Cringe". Wow… now that is an extremely cringe memory.
