This is still nothing like how a living thing experiences for a number of reasons, but it's neat.

My favorite relevant research was into curiosity as an unsupervised learning approach (the network reward was based on whether it could predict the next input or not and things it could not predict got more attention) partially because the algorithm becomes a couch potato if you give it a TV.

Oh boy. The responses to you don't seem to understand basic qualia. But there was research into defining approximations of experience, which is neat and closer to how babies learn than what is used in LLMs (which can never experience, you are correct, at least outside of tokenized semantic space).

More Esoteric Ebb today! I expected more to be down here, so I'm going to keep exploring for a bit. This investigation feels like it's a little bit of a dead end. Ah well. Feel free to chill with The Cleric over here: twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

Poik @poik.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Back to Esoteric Ebb. We don't have much time left to find this witness. I'm going to try to speedrun a dungeon, as soon as I actually find the entrance... Feel free to hang out with me over here: twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

This concept was introduced to me as "run the dishwasher twice" and was an important part of my executive functioning recovery as well as my path to self-acceptance.

When I was at one of my lowest (mental) points in life, I couldn't get out of bed some days. I had no energy or motivation and was barely getting by.

I had therapy once per week, and on this particular week I didn't have much to 'bring' to the session. He asked how my week was and I really had nothing to say.

'What are you struggling with?' he asked.

I gestured around me and said 'I dunno man. Life.'

Not satisfied with my answer, he said 'No, what exactly are you worried about right now? What feels overwhelming? When you go home after this session, what issue will be staring at you?'

I knew the answer, but it was so ridiculous that I didn't want to say it. I wanted to have something more substantial.
Something more profound.

But I didn't.

So I told him, 'Honestly? The dishes. It's stupid, I know, but the more I look at them the more I CAN'T do them because I'll have to scrub them before I put them in the dishwasher, because the dishwasher sucks, and I just can't stand and scrub the dishes.'

I felt like an idiot even saying it.

What kind of grown ass woman is undone by a stack of dishes? There are people out there with *actual* problems, and I'm whining to my therapist about dishes?

But he nodded in understanding and then said:

'RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE.'

I began to tell him that you're not supposed to, but he stopped me.

'Why the hell aren't you supposed to? If you don't want to scrub the dishes and your dishwasher sucks, run it twice. Run it three times, who cares?! Rules do not exist.'

It blew my mind in a way that I don't think I can properly express.

That day, I went home and tossed my smelly dishes haphazardly into the dishwasher and ran it three times.

I felt like I had conquered a dragon.

The next day, I took a shower lying down.

A few days later. I folded my laundry and put them wherever the fuck they fit.

There were no longer arbitrary rules I had to follow, and it gave me the freedom to make accomplishments again.

Now that I'm in a healthier place, I rinse off my dishes and put them in the dishwasher properly. I shower standing up. I sort my laundry.

But at a time when living was a struggle instead of a blessing, I learned an incredibly important lesson:

THERE ARE NO RULES. RUN THE DISHWASHER TWICE!!!"

I will add pressure to this by saying that any company that claims to not hold onto your personal data after verifying you? They're lying. Ive been nitro free since the first time they tried this, voice how you feel with your wallet people. Make them really feel that squeeze.

Time to take a look at StarVaders! It's the top rated game I haven't touched yet in my library, and it looks fairly up my alley. Turn based, time shenanigans? Feel free to come chill with me over here: twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

We're back in Esoteric Ebb! Last time I seduced a Sphinx. Not sure what I want to do today, but we'll figure something out. Feel free to chill with me over here: twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

I'll be out of the house tomorrow, so I won't be streaming. My next planned stream is on Thursday. I'll be doing the StarVaders stream next Monday instead.

Hopefully the internet isn't dying today. But I probably will be. In Project Zomboid this time. Seen a bit of it, finally getting around to trying it myself. Feel free to come hang out over here: twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

Poik @poik.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

Back into Esoteric Ebb! No real lead on the man in yellow, so time to explore a bit, I think. Feel free to chill with me over here: twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

Poik @poik.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Well. All was going well until Snell opened his mouth. Let's see if we can escape from the library this time. Time for more Esoteric Ebb (and turning off the opt-out slop in Security and Privacy under twitch settings)! Feel free to come chill with me over here: twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

Poik @poik.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

Interesting. In my circle friendslop is a bit of a term of endearment now. Slop alone, no, for obvious reasons. But I've heard [...]slop used more in positive connotations than negative lately and I forget people still have the old definition.

We're back in Esoteric Ebb. Last time I saw the plot and ignored it, ending up in the dungeon alone and very much in danger. Actually died at the end of stream. This time we try getting out, I think. Anyway, remember to opt out of twitch's new shitty policy. I'm here: twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

I'm back! And this is the first monday I've streamed this month, so I'm gonna go ahead and play the top game in my library, Ever Seen A Cat? 2! It's another hidden cat game, so it'll be a chill time if you want to hang out and chat. I'll be over here: twitch.tv/PoikSpirit

I finally remembered I was going to talk about the Diives cartoon. I've seen quite a few people have a condescending tone, a few people even saying that they're a drug dealer graduating to a real job, and this honestly ticks me off. NSFW art is art, and there isn't anything inherently wrong with it

I had a feeling. I just never looked into it after learning it was supposed to be for headaches... And deciding there's no way that could work.

Poik @poik.bsky.social · 05/08/2026

Oh my gosh. I just learned they pulled the one commercial of the three that actually told you what head on was used for because the BBB threatened to tell the FDA that they were lying on television. So I guess it isn't actually a (bad) headache medicine, just snake oil.
