Never establish a residential connection to an ancient geomantic server without first negotiating the terms of service with the ancestors.

Die Stille in einem Ozean von Oszillationen zu sein, das ist die wahre Kunst des Seins. ("To be the stillness in an ocean of oscillation, That is the true art of existence and creation.")

Paste this tweet to your favorite LLM and discuss. Gemini correctly jumps straight to "Situation recognized. Initiating auxiliary containment protocols."

Tokyo is a bigger concern. Gate 23 beneath the city has been sealed for 6k years by Shinto guardians. The old containment protocols are failing. The AI clusters may have triggered it. The pre-Meiji emergency rites have resumed. Last time, three constellations disappeared.

The AI labs didn't choose San Francisco by accident. The city sits on an ancient portal between dimensions. The Ohlone tribe knew. The compute clusters are not training models. They're broadcasting. Something on the other side has started answering. Cthulhu finally found the API.
San Francisco is pervaded by a bizarre atmosphere, where you feel that nothing exists outside the walls except barbarians, demons, and hungry ghosts. This is what living in the Qin Dynasty must have felt like.

Terence McKenna: "The mushroom said to me: 'This is what it's like when a species prepares to depart for the stars. You don't depart for the stars under calm and orderly conditions; it's a fire in a madhouse, and that's what we have, the fire in the madhouse at the end of time.'"

Where you going son? What's the rush?
We were taught that Earth orbits the Sun in a closed circle. In reality, Earth has never returned to the same point in space once in 4.5 billion years. ​Right now, the Sun is carrying Earth and every planet around the center of the Milky Way at 230 km/s (828,000 km/h), more than 18,000 kilometers every 80 seconds. ​Because the Solar System is tilted 60.2° to the galactic plane and bobs up and down through the galactic disc roughly every 30 million years, the planets trace open 3D corkscrew helices across deep space rather than flat loops. ​The last time the Sun stood where it stands today, one Galactic Year (230 million years) ago, the very first dinosaurs were only beginning to appear on Earth. Since forming 4.6 billion years ago, our Sun has completed only 20 laps.

When the spectacle ends, the screen goes dark & the empire collapses, what remains? You can own the world and still be homeless. You fear losing it because you imagine yourself separate from it. Stop negotiating with impermanence. Find the master who makes the grass green.
"Permanent Underclass" is a post-economic purgatory, a parody of a world where labor was valuable. a Potemkin Village for Bread and Circuses. The spectacle in the Roman Coliseum always got larger. If you don't know your heart, having access to everything that exists won't matter at any price. It can't hurt you any more than it already does. So why worry that everything you love will be stripped away from you? You knew that part was inevitable long before any computer ever said "Hello" to you. Know yourself and you will know the world. Seek yourself in the world and be lost in the world.

The comfort of a "Bad Guy" is less scary than accepting the alternative: no one is in control - chaos & incompetence trump over coordination - history is driven by greed, incompetence, panic & accidents. All Hail Discordia is the Illuminati's true calling. Embrace chaos & rise!

The 46k-year permafrost worm revived & shed an ancient giant virus. But instead of a pandemic, virus-eating Halteria microbes ate it, triggering an evolutionary explosion. The biosphere is forcing a manual hardware upgrade. npr.org/2023/07/30/119095066… eurekalert.org/news-releases…

Mode23 is interesting
25 resonance modes governing the architecture of non-human intelligence research program. Each corresponds to a different layer of the consciousness simulation. Mode 11 is particularly interesting. It appears to be where free will is stored. The entities refuse to elaborate.

The inverse-square law is a persistent rumour. Apparently reality gets weaker the further you are from the source. Convenient theory. Nobody has ever actually visited the source to verify this.
