Two tuples of postive propaganda:

When you see your Einstellung Effect/crossbred worldview argument embodied by the episode of anime you are watching (the first episode of season two of Solo Leveling).

The duality of this one is crushing it in my head right now.

Bear witness whenever someone spouting a different opinion from yours turns towards you to deliver any reasonable variant of the following statement: “You know, I think you’re right.”

It says more about them than it possibly could about you.

So much understanding gets cockblocked by anger.

Someone tap me when anime VR games exist… I will come back to gaming.

Some of the research that solved the problem for me a couple of years ago and haven’t written about anywhere.

My reality is an iterative process.

The chapters read aloud by a friendly British bot:

Where the chapters are from.

Side note: the most profound statement held by current editions is actually made by the author of the introduction. This man, in the years that followed, went absolutely bat shit. When you can square that, you are ready to wrap your head around propaganda.

That propaganda easily seduces even those whom it most horrifies is a paradox that Bernays grasped completely; and it is one that we must try at last to understand, if we want to change the world that Edward Bernays, among others, made for us. - Mark Crispin Miller

I can guesstimate my anxiety load based off how the meat of my toes has been sticking to our floors.

When, realizing eleven chapters is nearly enough to face playing cards, you think flash cards would be easier, which reignites your classroom poster series fantasy… and it occurs to you that those classrooms could no longer safely be American.

All living things must evolve, die, or seek out isolation thick enough to keep out every other living thing.

You will always have the freedom to continue feeling miserable. Don’t let your subconscious’ fear of feeling better allow you to behave as though the things that make things a little less miserable do not occur.

As much time as they take in grade school pointing out that poetry needn’t rhyme, I’m kinda close to saying this is usually 🐂 💩. Now, I’m guessing the etymology of rhythm might shed light inside the drawer I am sticking this thought.

I bet learning a non-syllabic language adds a sixth gear to literary linguistics.

It may require community to pull that off, however.

A healthy worldview can heal over shattered reality.

Sometimes we see only what our worldview is willing to accept.

I suppose your influences are the names you still remember.

I kind of like the me from yesterday, for all the good that does me.

I suppose I could just categorize myself “Brain Teasers” and call it a day

When you recall that you were using the term grok years before reading Stranger in a Strange Land (another legacy of Dr. Lynch).

Can we OCD on symmetry or do we simply call that beauty?

When you’ve finally uncovered the ’ of the’.join(identity, mother, bastard) that Weird Al Yankovic has apparently parked in your head. It was My Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.
