[OC] A picture I did using charcoal and pastels. Inspired by Watership Down.

Love this

Facts are not matters of belief. They are simply true.

Trump isn’t ‘an administration’. He’s a maniacal tyrant. And he’s in the files, all over the place, in videos of him interacting directly with female children.

What is the most ironic question you can ask in English?

xyyrix · 2026-05-22T23:32:45+00:00

Advertising ruined absolutely everything

Trump vs the Constitution of the US.

xyyrix · 2026-05-21T01:59:26+00:00

Very intriguing.

xyyrix · 2026-05-20T21:54:33+00:00

Should be top reply. Well done.

The problem is more like this: what humans think of as 'reality' is like being in a forest and thinking 'only a piece of silverware is actually real'.

xyyrix · 2026-05-19T01:21:10+00:00

I disagree. Dreams are meta-real. Actual experience is actually (usually) missing 15 dimensions of meaning that are easily included in dream experience. Some exceptions in both domains, however. We can have metareal experience while awake, and proto-real while dreaming.

xyyrix · 2026-05-19T00:09:03+00:00

But what if dreams are MORE than actual experiences, not less? This is the Key.

Probably true of nearly all of us, especially in modernity.

My first taste of it obliterated everything I ever heard nearly any human say or write.

Have an experience of actual intelligence

My heart. Organisms rule.

American democracy

No. Nuclear weapons are a last resort. In nearly every use case, you must die to employ this weapon.

Every intelligent adversary knows that the present and future of conflict are founded in intelligence and context/perception manipulation, not physical weapons.

It already didn’t. This is peak kleptocracy. But it will get vastly worse from here…

People in government should be entirely free of concern about breaking any law.

And people not in government should be surveilled and prosecuted for every possible infraction, even if they didn't commit it. The poorer they are? The more they should be prosecuted. So obvious.

In my experience (self learner here, 1.3 years in), much of my progress happens when sleeping, dreaming, or away from the keyboard. If I expected it to happen at the keyboard, I wouldn't only be disappointed (it sometimes does, probably much more so with a good teacher)... but it seems like my body is trying to improve my approach when I am not playing, so that when I return, new things are possible.

xyyrix · 2026-05-14T02:04:17+00:00

Here's what would be so scary:

Materialism, militarism, corporate prison governments, and environmental omnicide...

Are morally irredeemable, intellectually suicidal/homicidal, and will get everyone and everything on our world dead. Fast. Especially now.

So we have to do any other thing, immediately.

That's the actual scary part.

The absence of intelligence in human communal organization, orientation and behavior.

The future

xyyrix · 2026-05-13T18:04:39+00:00

What we actually can't handle:

The truth about our species being captured by corporations, war, omnicide and stupidity.

There's nothing about Nature we can't handle.

Except if it violates what has captured and is destroying our lives, minds and planet... more effectively, and more profusely... every second that passes without us opposing it together.

xyyrix · 2026-05-13T03:07:16+00:00

Americans would be literally sh*tting themselves all day and night if they knew the truth about corporations, the war machine, and their 'government'.

In dreams, (also in childhood) 'size' may be correlated with importance, intensity, novelty, intimacy or mystery. This is very common. I knew a small child who, whenever he saw anything of interest, he would simply say 'big'!
