Spoken like a man who has no fucking clue how electricity works

It's just the dumb version of bay area syncretism-talk.

You just kind if talk vaguely almost mystical about two 'different fields' of science. Its like two degrees off the babble parts of 'star trek'.

I extra hate it because I'm a thousand times better at it and will never get paid because I'm not a straight white cis dude who can suck fasch dick.

It's like reading "what if I were a dumb mother fucker conning the dumbest mother fuckers who have ever lived". He's not trying, he's not good at this, I hate it so much.

Gravitron neutrino slipstream processors are gonna solve this problem.

No, no. More like, and I havent done good drugs in weeks so forgive my ineptitude but without having a particular audience or concept in mind:

Information is physical⁰, and this leads to a neat little penumbra¹ at the boundaries¹ of consciousness², information³ and meaning² blur¹ to create⁴ a kind of meta-conceptual space⁵ where ideas are so real as to border² on solid¹³, and within this space we can achieve¹³⁴ a kind of godhood¹³⁴⁵, if we only have the wits²³⁵ and boldness³⁵ to reach for it.

⁰true science thing these people absolutely do not understand the implications of and I will later contradict

¹Transgressive, scary, unknown–deniable occulting woo-baiting, evades precise meaning and validates vague vibes-about-it, plus makes them feel like wizards

²usually-big word nobody in the room can tell me the meaning of, but we all agree is important/profound. Yes you can, but they can't and can't admit that.

³pointing at TV meme

⁴i identify as creating shit! I don't, but I identify as.

⁵bonus points: reinvent some widely-and-properly-regarded-as-stupid extremely discredited shit from midaevil thought, like uber for philosophy in that it gets around all the just and necessary restrictions on a thing by saying theres a computer involved, usually making it even more fucked than the original was before it was discredited/regulating. In this case; the pneuma

⁶now to drive it home; use this to validate a billionaire fascist or atrocity porn wet dream. Theres a points multiplier if you link it to SciFi from the 90s they absolutely did not understand and suggest building The Torment Nexus. You can never go wrong quoting gendo ikari!

i'll hire you for a grifting startup. we don't even need a service or product, just words on the wind.

can you do this expression while pacing around a stage as ambient music plays gendo-tent

God is in his heaven, all is right with the world, but we sure could use more electrons down here!

Lmao this made me realize that modern Genji would be hilarious- pitching the EVA program to politicians who have no idea what he’s talking about, only to have his funding pulled for [austerity, because he has a beard, hiring woke DEI scientists and security (read ‘women’), etc/latest fad]. Not the child labor - which NERV receives a tax break for - and don’t worry about their mental state, they have an employee assistance hotline they can call in the event of an existential crisis. Ultimately the NERV contract goes to a suspiciously well-connected son in law, who promises to “add more electrons to the primordial soup” to “boost synchronicity”; and recommends that the angels be used offensively to secure more oil.

I would do hands clasped behind my back, which is held remarkably straight. And I'd go for some brooding modern chamber or dark post-rock.

ah, the classic poignant "doodly doodly deedly deedly" soundtrack that means this is cutting edge stuff

No need for the "dicksucking" as a negative thing IMO

Sucking dicks isn't bad. I can do it, if there's someone I like.¹ I cannot however bear to suck fasch dick. Literally or figuratively, that just gets a nope from me.

¹n{t dicks plural at the same time, dont think I can do that, no moral qualms, just not good enough
