Working on my next #collectiveintelligence project: it's like...

Is it totally stupid to have large sweeping collective plans and zero personal plan? 🙃

Like...how far can one get on a hope and a prayer? And does the math change if enough people are hoping and praying?

reminder that i retroactively fund things that helped me, even if we didn’t agree on this in advance

@samsenchal what would be a good name for this look? Some sorta geometric, adversarial, haptic cyberpunk

@samsenchal Bwhaha have never seen this movie. This scene is gold. I love the boss battle LD call.

Now I'm having fun thinking about porting mundane actions into this fork of a retro aesthetic :)

Not sure how I feel about a senior CIA official turning prepper and stealing $40M in gold bars, requested as "work expenses" and found sitting in his home... What sort of expected timeline is someone like that living on? https://t.co/c4YvIiQqal

I could almost imagine a speculative future when maybe this murmuration of sleepers and wakers is running perpetually... like a never-ending stream of people, helping one another move between worlds and starting their days <3

Current status: Have been thinking about synchrony at different scales lately: in thought (culture), in macro scale motion (sports, dance), in molecular motion (music)...

[⿻ patcon (is in Toronto) 🦋 @patcon.bsky.social @patcon_]

I wonder what it would feel like to start the day in such a connective way. Having been helped by a voiceless stranger, and in turn helped another, all before fully entering the realm of thoughts and actions and must-be-dones... I wonder if that would be a good thing?
