On Google’s 28th birthday it is time to turn the party into an intervention. What the fuck is this you are doing? You are no longer carrying out your basic function, and you are covered in your own shit?

my while (true) { randomHttpRequest(); } has acted improperly because of an error in its judgement, but it is only human

From the position where I only care to know if I am breathing out or in, the valence of everything changes. I can be curious and unthreatened, and somehow the distance implied by occupying such a basic judging function enables a deeper engagement with what is happening

With wings that I won In the passionate strivings of love I shall mount To the light to which no sight has penetrated. I shall die, so as to live!

In episode one of ‘Ways Of Seeing’ when they change the music to a religious choral I get the point that I need to rewatch Kenneth Clark with the music swapped out

When I suck on Smarties I know I’m on the same planet I grew up on. They didn’t change it! It’s the same damn thing. So subtle.

The internet is extractive of the real (eg streamers pull from it) per Conways law since the operating environment is extractive

If we cannot prove consciousness exists in any way then we must conclude given our wondrous apriori gift of knowledge that it is the world which does not exist since something that is incompatible with consciousness cannot exist. I solved it and I only needed edibles and hypomania.

I took two of my new edibles because one didn’t do much. I pray for linearity in accelerative times. #linearity #thc #d9 #edibles #prayforme

This machine which I both designed and created and keep switched on at all times has a high chance of causing mischief. You’re absolutely right, we must prepare for mischief at once!

If the difference that makes a difference is the sensory modality differentiation in which reality assigns some information to certain buckets, then that is the act of signification itself becoming apparent

Sometimes it does feel like a great cooling. The energy moves through, things start to feel settled. Any time I can look up and the night catches me with its mystery, reminds me that I’m in here with it all. I’m not behind the glass at some aquarium.

midwit-lightweb.bsky.social @midwit-lightweb.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
I think about the raw thing in contact with the real, feeling the blinding light of jouissance and calcifying. Somewhere in this, the information was assigned sensory modality. How strange.

If I think to myself that all that will help me is held only by myself, that is the real mistake. That is a tragedy of total atomisation. There is, out there, a mass of human potential that all moves in the very same space. The internet’s radical anti-privacy produces boundary reinforcement.

“It is not enough to say that the appearance is never adequate to its essence, we must also add that this essence itself is nothing but the inadequacy of the appearance to itself - to its notion - inadequacy which makes it just an appearance.” - Zizek. Did I write that out correctly? not grammarly.
