THE SAME EMPTINESS
Those who entered and remained in an emptiness that was pure, superior, and unsurpassed, they all entered and remained in the same emptiness

UKRAINE AND EXTINCTION
The strongest argument against the US empire's proxy war activities in Ukraine is not Nazis, nor biolabs, nor rising gas prices, but the fact that it is bringing the human species ever closer to an extinction-level event after which nothing else will matter.
We can anticipate horrific 1.5°C of global warming by 2024-2028, followed by impacts at 1.6- 2°C in the 2030s we'll struggle/fail to adapt to.
We are in a deforestation economy. A weapons of mass destruction economy. An extinction economy.
Where are the system change headlines?
"Parts of eastern Antarctica have seen temperatures hover 70 degrees (40 Celsius) above normal for three days and counting"
7. Tropical rainforest fragmentation may conceivably be so severe already that future collapse at 1.4°C and beyond will be unstoppable.
Last year scientists confirmed this fragmentation was still getting worse, 4 years on from the study in these threads:
Ben See @ClimateBen
Today, I'm authorizing the release of 1 million barrels of oil per day for the next six months—over 180 million barrels—from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve. This is a wartime bridge to increase oil supply until production ramps up later this year.
We've had 26 COPs so far, year after year the power elite meet. And the science has been known that whole time and is happening now just like predicted. And still NOTHING, less than nothing, they're calling for MORE fossil fuel! Marches feel good but this is why they don't work.
NAN GOLDIN IS A PAINT HUFFING RATCHET HOE
Nan Goldin may be ‘a friend of the pod’ in the broadest possible sense but Nan Goldin is a paint huffing ratchet ass hoe and that’s on everything. Goldin has fought for years against the Sacklers but is pro vaccine. She believes Covid is completely different to the Opioid crisis despite the fact that the person approving the vaccines at the FDA is the same person who approved the drugs that caused the Opioid epidemic. Nan Goldin is a paint huffing ratchet head ass deadass ass head ass hoe and that’s on everything.
A SIGN FROM THE BUDDHA
A key sign from the Buddha in The Large Sutra On Perfect Wisdom is that when the enlightened have passed through everything, including morality, ‘they nevertheless make a definite distinction between dharmas’. That is, once we pass through all demarcations and all need to make judgements, we nonetheless come to make clearer than ever the singular distinction between retards, ‘retards’, and dogmatists. This is what Wretched Worm means by ‘few’.

angelicism is the correct, the lucid response to a world (this world) that accelerationism tries and fails to escape
我觉得我恋爱了，带着惊奇和爱，已经失控的温暖，就像一种传染性病毒，所有的耳朵都闭上了——引用每一个熟悉的短语：友谊、爱情、有利、愉快——假装是其他情绪，但这些词都与事实不符，没有一个词代表爱，以至于击打如此忠诚的受苦之心。没有结尾的开始。

THE MILADY WAVE OF MARCH 2022
Can't stop thinking about miladies. I've never been this affected by an NFT before. Like straight up dreaming about them. Want one so bad. Want to create my own NFTs. Inspired, endlessly. Suddenly listening to music on WinAmp via an emulator. I can taste colors. Losing my gd mind

PARALLEL UNIVERSES
ANITA tem feat com todo mundo msm rainha marketeira faz assim até projeto na NASA tem batizado com msm nome
NASA scientists 'may have found evidence of parallel universe where time runs backwards'
Every statement establishes a postulate for a potential universe. I’m up late trapping on my sigmoid shit
WHAT THE UNIVERSE OWES US
@GENIC0N Might be the physical laws of our universe are just what being digested by a larger universe feel like.
Sumedha be like, ‘I am to become a Buddha, awakened to enlightenment; may you tread with your feet on my hair—on my birth, old age, and death.’ Once you realize a larger universe is digesting (voring) this one (you), it make sense to be trampled on. Guru, please trample on me. Pls allow teachability.
PLS TRAMPLE ON ME
Since the number of extinction is in question, Buddha of infinite white light, please trample on my hair.

BTC AND THE GREAT FILTER
"I think Bitcoin is the bridge across that filter.
Simply put, once you adopt a Bitcoin standard, your time preference is in line with the preservation of your species, which is the first test when it comes to the great filter."

@elonmusk We don't know what the great filter is, but #Bitcoin is the bridge across it.
‘Simply put, once you adopt a Bitcoin standard, your time preference is in line with the preservation of your species, which is the first test when it comes to the great filter.’
#Bitcoin is hope.
@DocCLAR Make your planetary intelligenesis process the Fermi Paradox you'd like to see in the universe.
@patrissimo Assuming they'd have to emit black body radiation. But the main Fermi Paradox issue is that they haven't more or less completely swallowed the visible cosmos. What we see is 'wilderness'.
@patrissimo The predominance of unencapsulated (or undismantled) stars is the strongest form of the Fermi Paradox. ...
@robmyers @alien_ecologies Fermi Paradox as class war is such a good take, ties nicely into Ilyenkov’s wonderful cosmology where communist revolution is necessary to reset the universe at heat death
@alien_ecologies @EBBerger Interstellar travel requires advanced economics therefore communism. Which also means that the Fermi Paradox is class war.
@deus_ex_homine Thermodynamics has been badly interpreted at the largest scales, based on the assumption that a universe exists.
@Outsideness It is mainly cladistically embedded, but not always. A new galaxy or star could pop up in newly created space.
MUSK AND THE GREAT FILTER
Beginning to suspect cosmic hygiene precludes this.

FLUID BITCOIN
what mathematicians know is that bitcoin is the "∞-category" of currency. it is infinitely fluid, infinitely valuable, infinitely impossible to know completely, and will be the language we all use in our everyday life. its "morphism" captures the past and creates the future.
BEYOND CONTENT
its beyond water, its beyond rap, its beyond CONTENT..if u r doing ANYTHING in culture on the internet u r ultimately working in the image of wat ppl like Lil B, SGP and CartierGod created... u should probably have to pay homeage for merely being alive at the same time tbh

PRO VAX ANTI-FASCISTS
GOOD UKRAINE TAKES THAT WERE
if your takeaway from this ukraine conflict as anything other than a test of the new multipolar world order, Russia making a measured bet on the weakened hegemony of western globalist order and stepping up to their imperialist threats for the first time, you’ve lost the narrative
why are B*nnington students laying in the mud “for the Ukraine?” Sorry, but this is mass psychosis and worm-like behavior. Putin would laugh at ur ass covered in mud. Why are u pretending to be a dead body when you’ve never even seen one?
EXTINCTION AND DEATH
@NegarestaniReza should i be worried about not being able make any sense of the section on extinction/death or is it some continental inside baseball stuff i shouldn't try to understand?

THE COUNT
Informal statement of misquotationalism: No human being can keep the count more than a few iterations without the aid of symbolic writing. What the subject does not realize is that in contemplating this fact, it contemplates its own being.
2°C CROSSED
Analysis shows it was more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial when Paris Agreement was reached, 2°C was crossed in February 2020, and the temperature rise may rapidly drive humans and eventually most if not all species on Earth into extinction.
2°C crossed

UNLESS THIS IS A MASS EXTINCTION EVENT
@mckenziewark @bratton Coronaviruses have historically weakened as seroimmunity increases. unless this is a mass extinction event. Either way it’s about how mych suffering is bearable until the light goes out (either within the virus or within our species). In that sense not unlike climate...

@GretaThunberg I recommend looking into free energy, can solve energy/climate problems, a good place to start could be Judy Wood's work on 9/11 or Nikola Tesla's work
LAND ON BAKED-IN EXTINCTION
@Julianmakeup * imminent * (Immanent human extinction is already baked-in as hard as cosmically possible.)
DETONATE IN AN ACT OF PURE FORGETTING
You really can't underestimate what the past 18 months have done to people's brains. Every single person you interact with is a potential hand-grenade, ready to detonate in an act of pure forgetting.
NIRVANA IS EMPTY OF NIRVANA
Ultimate reality means Nirvana and Nirvana is empty of Nirvana on account of its being neither unmoved nor destroyed.
EMPTINESS
A Bodhisattva cognizes all dharmas as empty of own-marks and sees them as not really existing , not totally real -- uncreated.
DECODE POLICE ENVY FROM THE CRYPT
Everyone who pretended to want to abolish the police was lying. It's really fascinating how you just wanted to be the police.
CANNOT BE TRUSTED
cinema is the closest we've come to actualizing the great human fantasy of memory. this is what lies at the heart of its appeal, and is why it cannot be trusted.

This @exxonmobile chart from 1982 predicted that in 2019 our atmospheric CO2 level would reach about 415 parts per million, raising the global temperature roughly 0.9 degrees C.
Update: The world crossed the 415 ppm threshold this week and broke 0.9 degrees C in 2017 1/

‘BEST POSSIBLE POEM’
This is absurd enough in certain specific cases: what could a 'best possible poem' even be? There is no well-ordering of all possible poems, only ever a complex partial order whose rankings unravel as the many purposes of poetry diverge from one another.
EXTINCTOPHILIC STAR
After the last night in heaven, the first day in paradise. Take over. Lol is my sword and shield. Divested, remote, filled with extinctophilic envy, how else could I be and when. Her eyes, bruised by light, see seeing. Gaslit by the universe, she shapes her breath into its own deluded knell. This is how she wins. This is her winning. I’m open. It hurts. They want me to die, or be dying, or be dead. Your pain is transparent, like sound. My whole life is transparent, like sound. Why can’t you see I’m here, you say, when it’s the last night in heaven / for all of us. How could anybody be such a frigid star towed away by God into voided relents when the earthquake is paradise in the way it begins. She wants me dead, and she wants me to watch her. No doubt we are birthing an extinctophilic star. An orgasm star. A bloodless emptying of a traceless birth. To sort out a lifetime is what they meant. Between Her and I are Lifetimes. And the bloodline is a fragment of orange heaven light. One lost ark. A piece of her hair I cradled through time’s hateful yield.
cool story
