It’s layered.

At the base level it’s just a mix of a kind of old tv static and what sounds like a creek bubbling. It’s the pre-verbalization soup- textured with sub-thoughts, half-impulses, emotional currents. It’s noticeable background noise but not particularly loud.

Above that is another layer of multiple streams of wordage. Just kind of nonsensical whispers that flow around non-stop. Sometimes there are also impressions of images but nothing definitive. Emotional tones are strongest here.

Above that is the focused wordage, or the internal monologue. Usually it’s proposed point or observation by one “me” and counter-point or add-on by another “me”. There’s no set number of "me"s. Occasionally it’s a construct of some other people I know. Just tangential rambling in incomplete sentences mostly unless I am really trying to sort something out, then it’s more structured. There’s a part of my mind that seems to calculate the conclusion to what I am mentally verbalizing that is one step ahead of the words so often there isn’t a need to complete a thought. This is also where the music and images play.

There is one more layer above all that, the working space, when I really focus, all the other layers fade from consciousness, words are clear, sharp, and coherent and the back-and-forth feels more like a unified “me”, it’s also where I deliberately create and manipulate mental images, movies, concoct scenarios and music plays the clearest.

The real question is “When a female transforms into her werewolf form, does she also sprout 8 more tiddies?”

Fuck 'em, that’s what I learned.

Yeah, like every day when I drag my ass out of bed to go to work, look around and think “this is a bunch of bullshit”

That’s a manga I would read

That’s awesome.

Also, a huge fan of putting casters on pretty much everything.

Meditations by Marcus Aurelius.

Ditch it.

Trying to force everyone to use their data scraper instead of a perfectly fine browser is a shithead move and you don’t need that kind of loser company in your life.

Be the shitpost you want to see in the world

I don’t know if I can handle another one

I saw it in the theater as a teenager. I thought it was hilarious. Saw it again 15 years later and was like “this is trash, how did I like this?” Last rewatch I was like “the camp is actually brilliant.”

“There was such a potential for all of us to live brilliant, flourishing, fulfilling lives.”

No there wasn’t. That’s just part of the illusion they sell you. The entire thing is just a shakey extension into the sky built upon a foundation it continues to havest from to give the impression of growth. It was only great for a few of us and it could never last.

I do agree with your sentiment and feel like if humans weren’t the way we are we could still build a global paradise.

But that’s not the way humans operate.

Lol, first time?

You should read up on how we did Sadam. The US diplo April Glass gave tacit approval for his occupation of Kuwait and we then used that as a reason to retaliate and stabbed him in the back to get the oil.

Even better, you should look up how we completely fabricated a boogeyman out of Gaddafi.

Everything that reaches the ears of the public is a lie.

Shit, pay me and I’ll emigrate to Japan in a heartbeat.

Both interesting and boring at the same time.

Reddit is just a marketplace for psyops/shilling now anyway.

You can see how there is collusion amongst the search companies and social media companies to wall off their little chunk of the interwebs and herd the users into data scraping apps.

Awesome!

Arr, it be elementary, mate: Get piss drunk and ya float yer dingy deep into the Bearded Clam Bay an’ with one squinty eye shot, unload a string o’ pearls right into the kraken’s maw. Now dance a jig and take a swig for the mistress of the sea.

Then hoist those sails right quick, lads, unless you want some little scabby bastards grubbin up all yer gold.

Heave away, boys!

Pic on the right… Oh snap, neurons activate! The whole of the aesthetic is greater than the sum of its parts!

People are inherently stupid. It is an essential part of our species for a reason that’s clever by no merit of our own. That reason is because fitting into social structure takes precedent over everything else. Without it being the highest priority, we are exiled from the goup which historically has spelled death and the end of our family line.

Above all we are a social animal. Of all traits, it is the entirety of our strength and survivability as a species. We believe what we are told to believe by people we believe. That’s it. The adaptability of our world modeling systems is remarkable and the vast influx of environmental data is ambiguous at best.

From the moment you are pooped out onto the earth to the moment you sink into its chilly clutches, all of us, from the beginning of humankind, believe only what our socialization allows us to believe.

Except for the very few things you’ve objectively tested with rigor, everything you think you know falls within the category of second hand knowledge by trusting that certain people are telling you the truth.

Conversely, logical deduction, mathematics, statistics, etc., etc., are not natural to our instincts. They’re skills that must be learned.

So just remember that. You, me, and the vast sea of morons that cover this planet are inherently built for fucking, hunting for resources, and being an integral part of our in-group way beyond things like understanding long term cause and effect, objective analysis, or anything else that paints a somewhat clearer picture of reality.

HSR is a powerhouse when you include the lore, story, graphics, music, etc., that just happens to also be a gacha game.
