Blake C. StaceyIf I were invited to this conference, I would have an intense "your approval fills me with shame" moment.
"You like both me and... Jesse Singal?" Fuuucckkkk. I would not have a good time processing that.
brennen@bstacey can you imagine what it's going to be like in 20 or 30 years for the kids being raised in the group houses and potluck circuits of the scenes these people have built?
@brennen I can try, but I would much rather not
@bstacey yeah, fair. there's just something about this parallel cultural universe they're building... i can't look at it without thinking of the people i've known who came from holdover 60s communes and such, but if their parents had been into hypercapitalism and scientific racism instead of struggling farms and pacifism.
@bstacey anyway. sorry. but yeah, a list i would be uncomfortable to find myself on.
though i note that the trick of "a big list of popular blogs and stuff with our attendees scattered throughout" is, well, kind of a cheap-feeling play for association.
@brennen Oh, for sure.
