relearning how to think in time scales of years
must let go of much
extremely thought leader on my TL today

gather around and listen to my analogies that sound smart
"the mind is like a bear, it hibernate in winter and will fucking kill you if it feels like it"

"hmm,,, wise"
"ideas are alive,,,, they're fucking, always"

"it is so"
"every optimization algorithm can be cast as sampling a phase space"

no wait this one might be good
"you can only reach what you seek when you do literally anything else, forever"

"truly enlightened"
"to know yourself, you must first know everyone else,, so go around asking strangers personal questions"
burying this one down here because nobody reads this far,

to many people my role in their life is primarily as a source of entropy

sometimes certain things impinge on my consciousness, that aren't quite dreams because I'm not asleep, and aren't ideas because there is no system by which I came upon them, but they are certainly created by choice
something like seeing a friend waving in your peripheral vision and turning to recognize them
it's some part of me choosing both to look and what I'll see when I do, but I only "control" the looking part

reading "the making of the atomic bomb" by Rhodes 1/
2/ in the first chapter, Rhodes explores the events leading to szilard's idea of the neutron chain reaction. he describes the importance both of a community of scientists and the open communication between them
these ideas seem to me to be in tension. one wants a closed elite community, with open communication within. Rhodes discusses entry to this community as being given through apprenticeship, idea propagation through reputation and overlapping work

While we tried as much as possible to avert major disasters in the past 48hours, we can’t but be grateful to patriotic officers within the @PoliceNG structures that allowed the Spirit of the Yuletide influence their actions. We have recorded far less casualties in 3years.
We are however concerned about the 100s of @PoliceNG officers dismissed for desertion. We are concerned about the selection process and this will be lookied into as we proceed. The low record of oppression, abduction & extortion of our youth this Christmas shows we can do more.
This doesn’t take away the fact that citizens have a who,e lot of thinking to do in their decision towards the realignment of leadership to purpose in 2019. All our institutions are under great pressure & stress by the enemies of our democracy. We are all Victims.

Oh god. This story makes me so angry. The fucking nerve and audacity of this asshole. This is not a tragedy... Not at all. He was a genocidal asshole and I wish worse had happened to him. Death just is not enough. Let me tell you why.
North Sentinel Island is a tiny little island in the Bay of Bengal, part of the Andaman and Nicobar Islands territory of India. The population is mainly entirely Native tribes and has lived on these islands for thousands if not tens of thousands of years and extremely unique.
The Andamanese and (Sentinalese people as part of them) are so distinct that their language, culture and genetically, that when they were first met, not only could no one figure out their language or connect their culture to other cultures, thousands of them died of disease.

Are you one of those people who's looked back on 2017 and convinced yourself that you haven't achieved anything? Worried about catching up with your mates who seem to have done much better?

Let me tell you a story about #time.

A thread 👇
A long #time ago, back when I was about twelve or thirteen years old, my parents travelled to Uyo.

Before leaving, my mother asked me to prepare Edikang ikong soup so she and my father would eat when they returned.
When I was finished with the soup, it was supposed to look something like this:

I've been reading and learning about the Adrenochrome drug. It is adrenaline and hormones harvested from the brain/pituitary gland of a person (or more potent from a child) after intense torture at time of death. If Podesta/Alefantis operation of obtaining Adrenochrome is done...
2. Maybe that explains so many of the ailments plaguing the corrupt elites like Hillary Clinton, McCain, Pelosi, etc. to include memory loss, lack of coordination (falls), dementia symptoms...
3. Also gives new meaning to the vial of blood Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton used to wear around their neck.
