in 2025, i wanna make progress towards finding and building my home and community and hopefully if i can make progress in this it will be proof to others that it's possible Plus, hoping certain things i create and do will actually make this easier for other people (useful for myself and others) i dont put confidence in it, but could totally see this path leading to a: *home/community generator/matchmaker* NOTE1: a home and community doesnt just have to be physical NOTE2: home and community is somewhere you can feel grounded and aligned and resonant with people around you

@uberstuber need that in my life

@archivedself

i do somewhat yearn for collaboration. But more than anything i yearn for parallel play. Because then i can express full agency with others

just found a project that is extremely close to what i want to build in the longterm EXCEPT they are focused on the technology. i want my place to be focused on being a home + helping others get aligned

@pavedwalden ahh, so basically: - my inquiry: the return may be part of a broader strategy to signal reconciliation or forgiveness - your assertion: it was more about using this individual's notoriety to distract from deeper inquiries into DOGE's operations

or gotta let the song finish or get to stopping point in podcast or phone call

@benpence people that answer "interesting" haven't had something bad enough in their life yet. There's alotttttttt of bad-interesting out there

is this how the real world is for us?

@archivedself ive still never figured this out. Aside from exercise or sleep i think humor has worked a few times or anything surprising that forces you into the moment (and forget emotions of past)

@jim_rutt "courage to engage with complexity" - yes! that resonates

if you are required to be IN A VR HEADSET, you are most likely experiencing something very similar to irl event - you and everyone is there in the moment. imo, i think there's unique fun to both: 1) /dance, but actually AFK at event 2) being embodied and present at event

@CAmbroseDE 😄😩

feels like everyone is always in a rush to avoid rumination let yourself ruminate. let yourself think do the same for the others around you notice how it affects the depth of your opinions and beliefs

@archivedself he's the best! Rainbow Goblins is a classic

@JungleSilicon @deepfates same

RT @nascentwisp: did you try finding/creating an aesthetically appealing solution to the problem?

@bhohner sounds fascinating bc by intuition i tend to think "more philosophy = less flow"
