Ran across a video about Robert Chambers' story collection The King In Yellow, and the fictitious play that could drive you mad. The more I think of it, that might have been as much of a prophecy about the Internet as Infinite Jest.

I also used to think is fake but this is only because mainstream media doesn't give you the full picture. Once I started to listen to trans people more and more, I realized my .

A quotation from Augustine of Hippo:

«««««
Why does truth call forth hatred? Simply because truth is loved in such a way that those who love some other thing want it to be the truth, and precisely because they do not wish to be deceived, are unwilling to be convinced that they are indeed being deceived.

A human being is a spatially and temporally limited piece of the whole of what we call the "universe". He experiences himself and his feelings as separated from the rest, an optical illusion of his consciousness. The quest for liberation from this bondage is the sole object of real religion. Not nurturing the illusion but only overcoming it gives us the attainable measure of inner peace.
Albert Einstein

Marjorie Taylor Greene about Donald Trump:
"Nelson Mandela was arrested, served time in prison,"
"Jesus was arrested and murdered by the Roman government."

I say...time for a serious reality check!

“Argued "Art of the Deal" co-author Tony Schwartz on MSNBC's "The Beat" Friday, is too delusional and detached from objective fact to do this effectively.

"I think what's happening right now is that he moves between rage and literally a blend of and ," said Schwartz. "I think his grip on is incredibly thin a lot of the time. When he is not out of touch with reality, he is just angry. What's he angry about? I've been caught. I could be caught. I could be end up in an 8-by-10 foot cell, I don't think he thought about that. I don't think he has the capacity to imagine himself inside a cell. We know from a lot of reporting that he is concerned he was concerned about getting indicted."

Somebody said to me here on and on this account something along these lines:

"you are strange and therefore I should stop talking to you".

Though to me that's a thing to say but I in that. It would be and of me trying to interact with that.

If somebody fears you that may cause a fear in you too.
.

It is the of people that is causing the in our society.

Still we shouldn't go after anyone because of this.

and can come from anywhere, we are all and we are not (even those who in their think so).

If somebody fears you just out of , then they are and probably you can not get anything meaningful out of interacting with them.

It's not their fault though. (also concepts such as feeling terror or alarm) is real, sometimes any of us can get there.

It has happened to me in my life, its not a strange concept to me.

Perrottet thanking the people of NSW for the opportunity to be premier is funny. He was elected by his party, when the people of NSW got the opportunity they kicked his government out.
