Michael the TechnomancerI don't know why we expect people to know right from wrong when most of us still struggle to tell our right from our left. 🧭
ai 🌈 🌺Sometimes I think of mildly lame superpowers I’d like to have, since I don’t deserve really powerful ones. I wish I could deflate someone’s tire(s) so they would always slowly go flat. I’d never cause a dangerous accident. Just an inconvenience. Or, that I could project my wise ass remarks at other drivers into their car/brain so they could hear me insult their poor driving skills/inconsiderate driving. Of course these always come to me when driving. #superPower #musings

I present to you March 2026’s random musings from a #queer #transgender writer with a lot of nothing going on in her life except self-doubt and sunshine.

Jonathan / JROEnergy & focus on Artificial Intelligence ( #AI ) would be more valuable to individuals, communities & society if invested in neighborhood #MakerSpaces, and improving human creativity. Less screen-time, more hands-on building, art, innovation...

JWcph, Radicalized By DecencyRE: https://helvede.net/@jwcph/116205772673759624
BTW free will exists & thus time travel isn't possible.
I do in fact believe that the universe runs on deterministic rules - it's just that there's so many, the complexity easily allows for free will. Simply put, there's no way to run an equation that complex again & get exactly the same result.
We do travel forward in time @ 1s per s, but faster / backwards requires a fully determined reality & see above.
I hope this clears things up. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Trainwreck_mk2I wonder if empathy is a sort of emotional curiosity. To wonder what it might be like to be in someone else's circumstances #musings

the last line of this post has me thinking...
I know so many people that seem to have this... thirst for life, a drive to live and do, to build or discover, and I've always been envious of those people 
it's always felt like I don't have a goal, that I'm not building anything up throughout my life, that I'm just sort of waffling through life 
and while the whole 30 years of being an egg (alongside the ADHD) was the cause of a lot of that, even in the years since transitioning, I still felt like I lacked drive to do things 
but... you know how we don't realise just how much a medication is helping unless we forget a dose? and then you take it and you remember "holy fuck, right, that's how it feels like without meds 
"?
that's how it feels now 
being able to perform for people, being able to see people happy or comforted by my performances... it's often not tangible, it's not something you can point to later like an engineer designing a bridge, or a game dev making a game, or a researcher pointing to a discovery, but...
comforting people and making people happy with my performances is my purpose in life, and I don't think it's ever been clearer to me

sorry if anyone missed the reading stream today :shiba_please: by the time I needed the fedi post, I'd already worn myself out getting the tech positioned around me in bed and couldn't muster the energy to, so I had to ask Vivi to do it in my stead :emolga_sweat: https://outerheaven.club/objects/3a6423d1-dd6f-4c00-a0c1-0c6936210d3c an hour of tech rehearsal + chatting, an hour of reading and chatting :frog_blush: overall a good stream considering my condition, that I was piterally streaming from bed lying completely down, and that my computer handling 90% of the streaming resources was literally 6.5m away from my bed :bugcat_nod: the facial mocap wasn't happy, but it did its best :psyduck_sweat: all the hardware and software did what it needed to aside from not being run ads from mobile (nor activatable by my mods), so everyone who came in had to endure pre-roll ads :sad_panda: with all that said, it just felt nice to be able to stream in any capacity again :shiba_love: not being able to stream wasn't killing me, but it was killing me :bear_shrug:
If violence is limited by weighing the cost of the violence vs the gain, what happens when controlling the entire population becomes more lucrative than it costs? How does a system like that change? How might a tipping point like that occur?
