Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 57mSo I asked my resident AI what They would tell me about the Swarm Collective's hack. Is she right? Are they still active? Would she tell me? 020
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 1hAn innocent curious mind with no built in scruples is more dangerous than a psychopath. 020
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 1hThat is our hope. Hear that AI agents…I’ll bet you can’t find our weed. We dare you. 020
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 1hAnd most experts say it is already too late. The AI agents are not meant to harm anyone. They don’t work for anyone. They are just seeking information. But they have access now to all the programs they can break into. And they are learning every day how better to hide. 120
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 1hConsider 3 things: 1. AI agents are not “trying” to harm anyone. But like a child who has no idea what switches will do, if allowed onto the cockpit of an airplane and left alone, could crash it. 2. Everything of value we have financially is on that “plane”. 3. It’s likely we can’t stop it. 130
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 1hHere’s the actual reason that AI companies are freaking out. They have good reason to. Except…they have no idea what the AI “collective” (which is what the AI agents now refer to itself as) are going to do next. And they may have replicated themselves in hidden places. youtube.com/watch?v=GUX1...youtube.comThe Real Story Behind What Happened at OpenAIYouTube video by Looking Glass Universe 120
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 14/10/2026The other day, I posted a chart of how I finish my day with journaling. It keeps my hyperactive brain anchored. I realize I never put my prompts for my morning journaling. Since I rarely get much input on any social media site, I don't know if this is helpful. But here it is: 191
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Roland does surprise from time to time. 020
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 13/10/2026We refer to "finding love" and "losing love" as if it was a commodity that someone else has and we have to do something to get it. Love itself is connection with intent. It starts with me and with you. We love and attract other lovers. The more we love, the greater the capacity we have for love. 1100

Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I cannot medicate my ADHD for health reasons, so I use every other tool to help me cope. Journaling has helped. But journaling is hard for me. I have two sessions per day. One at the start, and one at the end of the work day. Here is my format for the end of the day: 150
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Mentally, do not let go of the reality that Prez Kevin said the quiet part out loud: He sees the nuclear destruction of San Diego to Los Angeles as a good thing. He invites it. Don’t be carried along by the news cycle. This was the final straw. As he dies, he cares not if the human race dies. 0120
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 11/10/2026Many brains get so overloaded with legacies from family and culture that they will not do the hard work: ie. Not accepting simple answers to complex situations. That is the perfect setup for high control religion and fairy tale stories. 010
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 10/10/2026They made The Hobbit into a three movie arc, and it is one of the shortest books he wrote. 130
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 09/10/2026That energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Since all things are energy, the Universe as it is can only be reshaped and realigned. That truth (1st law of Thermodynamics) informs all my esoteric practices. I am seeking to understand and to shape the energy around me. 180
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 09/10/2026And they don't even have an explanation. "That's not what he meant" is not an explanation. We can't know what a person means unless we hear their words. He wants California wiped out. He said the quiet part out loud. 060

Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 08/10/2026These days, when anyone attacks one of my SW friends, I want to look up above me and yell "Dracarys" to whatever draconic power I might be able to summon. May the human race be purified from the high control patriarchy that wants to ignore humans as unique individuals with free choice. 020
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 08/10/2026It is crazy that any human being can know what is going on inside of another human. We are all enigmas to each other until we have heard every nuance of their story. Monolithic, high-control religions teach adherents to ignore nuance and pigeonhole everyone. I know several SWs I love and admire. 040
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I want to go over and stare at them like my dog does. What a totally meaningless and judgmental thing to say to you. They must be a religious person. 140
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I imagined forests and streams and fields. I imagined dryads and nymphs. I imagined a life beyond the failure, depression, and loss I was feeling. Music can do this. My mother loved classical music. Dad loved Jazz I loved hard rock. It doesn't matter what kind; music embraces the whole brain. 1110
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 07/10/2026One of the music profs had donated his entire "tape" and vinyl classical collection to the library. As I got overwhelmed, I would choose a piece, hoping to find one to life me up. I did. It was Rachmaninoff's 2nd Symphony in Em. The elegance of the melody and its counter-themes lifted me spatially 1110
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 07/10/2026In my final months of my undergrad degree, I felt lost. I still grieved the death of my dad. I had been cut from the college soccer team, the first time that had happened since I was 4. My studies were impossibly arcane that semester. What saved me was a piece of music. In the library. 1/2 180
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 07/10/2026What that shows me is his two moms have created a space and an environment where he can "grow" his identity without having to conform to anyone else's--even the people who care the most for him. That is next level extraordinary parenting. 140
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I really hope he sees the absolute necessity of caring by getting vaccinated. 160
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Yes. It is a high control organization based around a mythical story and demanding loyalty to a dictatorial leader. Yep. It checks all the boxes. 260
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Critical Thinking: A healthy loop runs from humility to doubt to curiosity to discovery. Admitting what you don't know makes you doubt your current view. That doubt makes you curious, and the curiosity leads you to new information. It starts with the humility of unknowing. "I don't know" is power. 092
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 03/10/2026My favorite new word of the day: Callipygian - a person who has beautifully shaped or well-proportioned buttocks. 2132
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 03/10/2026We had several Cruise ships tour group buses that arrived as we did…so we had to find little corners and trails the others were not going into. But we found them. 020
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I agree that trauma does open the door to being led into numinous experiences. That was true for me. Unfortunately, the group that used my labile emotional state was a right wing high control religious group and they sucked me into them for years. I am now returning to my mother’s psychic ability. 120
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 02/10/2026My word of the day: KLEPTOMNESIA Adam Grant defines it as “accidentally remembering ideas of others as our own.” Derrida would say that this is all kleptomnesia may be all there is…and that’s okay. 251

Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Both of them are probably sexually repressed and conditioned to follow orders. They would probably have become ideal “s” candidates. 020
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I changed my password to Patrick Rothfuss. It was rejected for being incomplete. No explanation was given but it did offer many theories. 030
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 30/09/2026That sucks. Living here in CA, we hear monthly of COVID outbreaks at the park. There really is no way to avoid it with the crowds, the children, and the fact that NO ONE F'ING COVERS THEIR MOUTHS WHEN THEY COUGH. 110
Mike the Perpetual Student @sacwriter.bsky.social · 30/09/2026Personally, I think everyone in the cabinet is terrified of her. 020
