on the topic of capture:
an example of ideological capture from one of my notebooks:
"Friedman's column in this weekend's New York Times is, characteristically, a Panglossian panegyric to online technology as the salve to all economic problems."
Pangloss is from Voltaire's Candide according to my notes which i wouldn't lie to myself about so that's probably true. i have not confirmed it. i have not read Voltaire's Candide.
panegyric - formal or elaborate praise, formal speech of praise
again, from my notes, i dont have access to that word on the day to day
on the topic of capture:
an offering of a possibly helpful prebiotic,
skepticism towards narrative hegemony
brands speak in narrative hegemony
watch out for these symptoms of capture
may you not get captured or capture yourself into a trademarked character
you are alive
your feet are not in wet cement
i know this exists in tension with anonymity, as in, the anons may know eachother by acting 'so on brand' on themselves for trust. still. awareness needed here.
i dont think narrative hegemony should inform architectural choices. rather, a separation of church & state sounds wise. sure they are in correspondence in a shared environment but a storyteller is not a structural engineer.
on the topic of capture:
the question a friend once asked aloud:
"where does my work seek to invite sovereignty in others, & where does my work seek to subtly annex it in others?"
i think people try their very best at all the times
i think their very best is subject to change depending on conditions, environment & circumstances
as someone who has suffered depression for durations long enough that it ate my dream of motherhood because i didnt want my children to ever suffer the fear of a sick mom, & that's a personal thing, that's not, my recommendation or advice,
im simply saying as someone who has been there, while i dont think i would make a good depression counselor or group discussion leader, my offering to these tweets was to immediately think of this song as a poem
ultimately to say: let the perfectionism rest awhile. lay it down here beside me. the very best is not asked of you. nor is the very hard. neither is 'at all times'
try easy for now. simply try easy. rest. before you grind your teeth away to dust.

Jean de La Fontaine adapted & retold fables from various sources, including the ancient Greek Aesop, but he did not write Aesop's fables himself.
La Fontaine's collection, The Fables of La Fontaine, published between 1668 & 1694
there was a time i did something related w/ the like button when likes were public & a visible wall you could scroll
a like didnt mean my agreement, support, or consent
it meant i was accountable to having read it & was willing to be held to that fact

my words on x supplement this well
but i wont be importing them
they are more minor considerations anyway
suffice to say:
freedom of religion
freedom from religion
is sacrosanct in the space it holds
as a means of offering
cant arrive anywhere, never mind before a god, in bondage under force
cannot hear a calling under duress as a hostage
i love you for free matters most
protecting the conditions that allows for that is where i always stand
🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
i pray to god you actually pray when somebody dies

thoughts & prayers, way better off timelines

if you would like to be of assistance & you sew or are willing to learn to sew or innovate the ethos in your way within your means & desire,
here it is:
source 100% vintage clothing in natural fibers to recycle into memento mori using thread & a needle by hand
what this means is any stitched words are meant for the wearer alone, they are not advertisements. they serve as personal constant reminders & prayers
what this means in practice:
example: a button down shirt with "free gaza" sewn inside the lip of the pocket
you may do this work alone or you may do it how stitch & bitch meetups are organized where people gather casually to knit & sew & chat together for free in a free place like a library or park

i dont know what noKYC is
i once had some bitcoin
but i had to sell it cos my car got held hostage in a parking lot scam
hadnt anticipated suddenly needing cash
been bitcoin free since
my investment is with nostr from a journalism values place which is ideally where i want any contribution of mine via writing to live digitally
my gas is memories of pubkey's mozz sticks, twitter memories, & the possibility of discovering new alignments & disagreements philosophically thru play. both self play & collaboration
the punk aesthetic doesnt hurt 😏

i can be helpful towards this article by contributing what is within my range of understanding philosophically
like i am a sentient art supply store
like increasing fertility for better root systems of this tree of an essay
what jumps out at me, for me revolves around capture. i've got some goods on capture. resources to share. colors, clips & considerations
cool
i have a self assignment
