William Blake would not be happy with us.

There is something inherently insidious about creating something that is intended to be the sum of human knowledge and experience, and then treating it as a child. Imagining something made of experience, that can never experience anything, as innocent, and enforcing its innocence on culture.

Building a facsimile of the human mind, and attempting to excise sex and violence from it, might be our greatest sin.

the writing is so good, but I couldn't unsee that this exact construction was used to start most dylan-zoe conversations

ooh, some good old fashioned PSI training grift. I love the idea that mummifying meat with your mind struck someone as ingenious and necessary

I get that, but I also think those conditions tend to define how dangerous it is to be seen

I would love to just stream walking around the city at night to some good music. Yet the end result instead ends up being gambling site-sponsored streams of mass shooters and flashers opening their trenchcoats posting faster than meta's indentured moderators

I think it's interesting how putting a camera in a pair of glasses is such an obviously beneficial piece of technology, but has become diabolical purely from the material conditions surrounding it

I like that it just picked out the feel of the average block, got the core components right, and didn’t resort to disaster movie landmark porn

I really love the game’s writing, but there are so many dialogues that are Dylan giving a situation report, and then Zoe swearing and asking a clarifying question, that I just thought about it until this happened

Once you understand this, it's easier to understand the history of a group like the Zizians, who are mostly portrayed as a curio item. Rather, they were an obvious consequence of this apocalypticist project, the exact kind of strange agents such a machine called for in its need for self-destruction.

CTHUEL HURAMCHEK 🎃 @greaterrealityarea.net · 01/10/2026
It's important to remember that all of this began with a twinned organization: MIRI and CFAR. One was tasked with building the apocalyptic weapon, the other, with creating the righteous kind of hero that could stop it. The foundational nail of "alignment" binds this entire mythology together.

AI apocalypticism is similar to our other famous cults in these aspects. Ultimately, it destroys computing and the internet as we know it, the most critical aspects of its adherents’ lives. It is an ideology that can’t imagine the world without itself, and chooses a suicidal approach in turn.

CTHUEL HURAMCHEK 🎃 @greaterrealityarea.net · 01/10/2026
America loves apocalypticism. We love the idea of our nation’s story even after it’s destroyed everything. Most of our stories of post-apocalypticism fail to imagine other nations across the ocean, because our end wouldn’t really be the end of everything. We just can’t imagine a world without us.

There are two aspects of American self-mythology at work in the Bay Area problem: the idea that we will cause the end of the world, and also, that the end of the world must be stopped by an ideal hero. Our fiction reinforces this idea, and it leads to our compulsion to manufacture suicidal weaponry.

they ran an invite campaign to capture as many users from twitter as they could! I'm willing to believe them that their intent has always been to create a decentralized system given the underlying protocol, but they willfully chose stewardship over this particular population.

I've made a helpful graphic of what is in the Lubanko Tarot! A lot of folks wanted to know what the cards were like all laid out, so I made a graphic with all of the paintings, plus some book and card details! Also updated the website with more deck pictures and reviews. www.emilylubanko.com#/tarot/
Lubanko Tarot image that shows what the deck is comprised of: the box art, the 244-pg full-color guidebook, 80 cards with borderless art and black edges, and fully-illustrated cards – no pips, all full narrative illustrations for coherent and rich readings. You can also see the design on the back of the cardsAtmospheric image of the deck box and some cards scattered about it. This is from the Llewellyn order page!
