A good reason to see Jeffries as weak that is orthogonal to immediate political affinities is that now would be the moment, for an opposition leader fueled by self interest, to unleash fire from his belly against what is a clear and obvious authoritarian attack by a massively unpopular loser.

Iirc it took seven years for that translation, so by 2038 there will be Reitter versions of vol 2 and 3. I wonder how valuable having those will be then, or how anything will be then.

The artist barrowing the sign must realize the medium dictates the interplay that generates aura. If the medium is a profile, temporary with no dwelling, even if their approach is authentic and sincere, they inflict wounds bleeding meaning by constant subjugation of the sign.

The profilific individual merely widthdrawls aura from a signifier, while the interplay of authentic and sincere individuals construct the aura of the signified. There is a vast yet failing effort to maintain the aura by the profilific individual by saturating the sign. This just robs it quicker.

The audience is getting the same value from the "content" in either case, so they move to the live format that has the added bonus of a better semblance of community. I suspect the subject matter is just a means for that feeling of community for many anyways.

The reduction is making things closer to the epistemology of an oral tradition than anything rigorous or positivistic. I believe this is an underlying factor in "content creators" moving to live mediums that better reflect this, profitability aside.

Many youtube channels in that realm follow a reading of a book detached from its content. I appreciate the hell out of those that do this overtly that allow for close readings of the source or better yet have their own synthesis. Too much is flattened supposedly for sake of success on the medium.

1Dime's content quality relied heavily on the quality of his sources like many other youtube politics people. The noticable dip in quality largely happened when he started relying on google notebook LM, "conservative socialist" turn or grift aside.

I'm pissed off online "community" is even called as such, its different enough in both positive and negative ways it should have its own word, para-communities or something.

Xymox is underappreciated. Easily dismissed for being firmly within their genres, but still distinct and crisp in their qualities enough to set them apart from and above contemporaries.

I will never forget all the cynical gainsaying and disinformation about the strike on Al-Ahli hospital ten days into Israel’s destruction of Gaza. ‘Fog of war’. Almost three years later, fewer than half of Gaza’s hospitals remain even partially functional and there is no fog. Only dust and rubble.

If the cheese was unshredded, I'd shred it for him. If there was no cheese, I'd buy it for him. If there was no cheese to buy, I'd make it for him. If there were no ingredients to make it, I'd form industry to produce them. If there were no labor to produce those, I'd organize the workers.

Their ingroup is characterized by rejection of narcissism of others among other projections they don't see as possible for themselves by being among others organized to aesthetically refute it. When they do fracture off, they recreate the same kiwifarms style self loathing ego affirmation spaces.

It is a revolving periphery of people that do go elsewhere online, but there is a core that think themselves the cult's ingroup entrenching further with time, shared transgressions, and the para-community supplanting others they'd be member to if this one didn't make them stranger.

Seems like really good advice for working through character dialog. Also like all the interaction in the playground, makes me think of each of the items as different parts of a 'Bop-it'.

Each reversal of fortune radiates from the core of this network. Each time more cancered intestinal tract is removed is a drop in all stomaches. All news of unprocessed foods is its own hard-to-swallow unprocessable news. Yet it must stay irresolute.

Obstentia 🕯️🐍 @obstentia.bsky.social · 20/09/2026
The case is something so necessitatingly irresolute as to maintain a form of hope that will alway leave its channel open in ways where the current may reverse. Precarity is immediately embodied in all sense and senses, propagated when positing our positive outlook.

Be an adult being an adult to children, not leveling yourself to the child's bounds of understanding and refusing human culture. Americans refuse to guide others lest they reveal their own lack of having learned a teachable lesson, deferring to media to reproduce their own fragile ego in others.
