"Of course it remains possible that #alien πŸ‘½ mindsets differ substantially from our own. Perhaps no other race is so cynical about the intentions of others, or wedded to game theory analysis of the potential threat. Perhaps no other species is quite so #aggressive as we imagine" πŸ€” https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/physics/research/astro/people/stanway/sciencefiction/cosmicstories/the_dark_forest

The web is a burned-down house; an ecology where humans are a minority signal. Platforms are Cloud Fiefdoms extracting rent from your existence.
Retreat to the Dark Forest:
**Build sovereign infra**: Own your hardware and your data.
**Cultivate illegibility**: Be expensive to model.
**Break extraction loops**: Refuse the optimization.
Build Parallel Structures. Render the machine irrelevant.
You are not cargo.

Its always sad to see another hillside fall victim to clearcutting, but this lone feller-buncher doing battle with the dark woods early this morning certainly made for a compelling photograph. (swipe for full photo)

Sometimes I'll just sit on a photo for years until something in my brain clicks and I figure out the right editing for the story.
