The Doomscroll Labyrinth

Baby sphinx trying to be like mama and waylaying travelers, but all its riddles are completely non-sensical like the ones a 1st grader would tell

lightning never strikes twice. all of the lightning you see is the first lightning strike, which has been wandering around and around the globe ever since it started one billion years ago

I feel like there's a fun piece of sort fiction you could make here with the spiritual concept of reincarnation for non-sentient entities. It's true of water and carbon on Earth, so why not other forces?

I don't really care what humans evolved to be. If anything about me contradicts that then I guess they evolved to be like me aswell

Flawless

This is the most technically proficient pottery throwing I've ever seen. The economy of motion? Literally everything in one pull, one squeeze. Absolutely no even minor touch ups required. This shit is like watching a skilled magician even as someone who knows how to throw on the wheel. I am watching this the way that someone who is great at a few card tricks watches Penn and Teller.

Yes

perhaps some will disagree, but i think the world got worse when we changed the colour of the night

ALSO! red light doesn’t fuck up human night vision much so you can go in and out of lit areas without readjusting

i legit miss red lights in cars and appliances n stuff. red city lighting is goated

I confess that after the first tweet my mind automatically went to the notion that the orc would be hired as a gym teacher. perhaps I have some deep thinking to do

Diversity hire bryson ur absolutely slaying

i don't play about corpse rights it's extremely important and serious to me

while i don't believe in an afterlife or souls and do accept that a corpse is an empty space where something once was, i also think that if we give a body which cannot advocate for itself that meaning and personhood, then we cannot simply disregard it as it suits the living to do so without any consideration for the consequences of that, especially when we will all one day be in the same position regardless of our consent in the matter. unlike abortion, where you're advocating for a hypothetical person that doesn't exist yet, a corpse is what remains of someone who did and had a material impact on the world. the dead aren't due any more dignity or respect than the living, but they also aren't due any less for the same reasons, and how much someone values the lives of others among them inevitably reflects how they treat their dead.

perhaps it'd clarify my position to say that, yes, a corpse is an object and an empty space which cannot feel or react, but a body is how we connect and interact with each other and the world, and a corpse is also, unavoidably, a body, however vacant, and you cannot treat a body as you would an object if you want to claim to uphold human rights, because that's a dangerous road with a steep drop

Being a flop changed my life. The world is not my oyster, I am glowing. I walked into a pole this morning. There's very little I wouldn't do for $1,000
