someone on here recently said something about abstraction as the desperate retreat of the avoidantly attached mind but I can’t find it so now I am just saying it again. that’s oral tradition baby

haha no but I do have to convert between pdf and jpg fifty times a day and the only form of version control is duplicating a massive 3d model file over and over again with slightly different names!!! so maybe we can call it even

when you cried your tiny heart out to all those albums in high school you were actually investing in your future self, who can now put on said albums and power through punishing tasks purely on the strength of a single remembered adolescent emotion

regular body parts: I'm growing 😇 teeth: in the dark secret places of your skull where I have rooted I am becoming hard and calcified and strong. I lie in wait. one day I will destroy the other teeth in my path and erupt through your soft, fleshy gums

think roughly half would become embroiled in a hyperselfconscious power struggle and the other half would probably have a chill time discussing, like, lossless audio compression formats

when you have a crush on someone and your entire awareness reorients to their being, your skin suddenly hypersensitive to a fleeting touch, the sound of their voice grazing you like a physical presence

the fact that we can drive, as a species, feels directly rooted in this really distinctly human facility for extending our body map beyond our physical body, into our tools

wowww I loved this thread!! u might also enjoy this beautiful little book “are we human?” about the tools we design and how we inhabit (and become ? ? ?) them

I also once had an allergic reaction to peanuts so intense that the distant stars drew streaks of light across the night sky in my vision… tune in for more tips on how to hack the ravages modernity has wrought upon your body in order to more closely commune with the ineffable

if you do not have time for mind altering substances you can simply develop moderate to severe myopia, remove your corrective lenses, and turn to the nearest light source to see it explode into a splintered web of intricate geometries. it’ll do in a pinch

happy bicycle day! lsd more than anything else has given me a home in this world, a warm and invincible peace, strange to think of its discovery as an accident of history eighty years ago in a quiet town amidst a raging world war

one of my least favorite sayings is “it’s not that deep”. feels like narrative violence, feels like a denial of some fundamental yearning for understanding, and why shouldn’t we get to use whatever silly wedge we want to crack the universe wide open

good to know one should still only be judiciously liking nudes!! I do really appreciate knowing that if in the future ...and for reasons inaccessible to my imagination... someone chooses for posts liked by friends to show up in their feed it will at least be fully voluntary, unlike Elsewhere

if I appear poorly socialized on here please forgive me. my formative (and only) birdsite experiences were 1. silently, longingly lurking in tpot and 2. running an unhinged stan account for a chinese actor dating conspiracy

I want to bury my fingers in the damp earth and breathe in the scent of distant rain and stroke the rough bark of a linden tree and also plug myself directly into the endless torrential matrix until the atomized fragments of my mind dissolve into pure information, is that So much to ask
