i am experimenting with releasing things as theyre ready from the printshop, so: i have the next batch of the rosary prints ready (20 of them). some of you have seen these before but its a continual feature of the studio. new sunrise color scheme. thread:

owen-cyclops.myshopify.com/collections/fe…
long story short (some people are new, ive been doing this for a minute so, little recap), i originally made this print because i wanted to start using the rosary and wanted to compile all the information someone would need to use it onto one page in an aesthetic way.
i have the commercially made prints and shirts, + then i have the more "fine art" style prints i make here at the studio with this crazy high end printer i got. so i frame + print them myself. theyve been received very well. unexpected insta-testimonial:

its something i really enjoy doing, i have to get the high quality frames and then when i do a run of prints i try to have a color scheme that both matches it + has some symbolic dimension. this one is dawn, sunrise, light dispelling darkness, seemed appropriate. i like it a lot
as for the content, it has everything youd need to know to use the rosary, and then each one is signed and numbered on the actual print itself, and then its also numbered on the back. each one comes with a rosary and two randomly selected stickers from the general arsenal here.
i have 20 of them here, im holding a few for people on a waiting list, then if they sell out quickly ill probably do another twenty. i like how this one turned out a lot, in the past people have picked them up for themselves or used them as gifts. thats the tale, at the moment.
gonna tack this on here also (like i said im experimenting with releasing things as they happen so, if u saw this already, sorry), i sold the first 40 of these vibe packs, gonna print more of these this weekend as well, hmu to get on that waiting list:

because of weights + how the post office works, it doesnt really matter with shipping prices if ur in the US and order one and then the other, i think its like 2-3 dollars difference. if u want both and are in another country tho you can hmu and i can see about holding one for u
thank you for participating in theological aesthetica broadcasting studio situation. ngl if im ever not tweeting im working on this stuff. in terms of other broadcasting projects i have like.. 20 pages of comics simmering together all at once so, should drop those soon as well 📺

a long time ago i was reading this on the subway. old guy taps me. i take my headphones off. he says, "whats that book?". i say "its... a history of magic". he says, "does he say magic comes from God?". i said "uh... yeah, actually". he says "good." then just stood there quietly Image
this happened at the utica avenue subway station in crown heights which i frequented for some time. a few other interesting things happened there. once another guy started talking to me. he was black, and told me he had been privately studying with a rabbi for like a decade

...
apparently he was privately studying history and judaism with a rabbi, alone, and the rabbi had selected him for this process. i asked a lot of questions and the guy did not seem insane, and seemed to know some things that validated his story, but, i could not make sense of it.

the movie ‘jesus camp’ is the movie i’ve watched the most in my life. in a way, that makes it my favorite movie. at this point, i’ve probably seen it hundreds of times. there are times working at my desk where i’d put it on every day. admittedly, bizarre behavior. so, why?

[…] Image
if youre unfamiliar, the film documents a bunch of kids who are taken to an evangelical / charismatic summer camp. it’s meant to portray them as somewhat extreme: a small window into this dark undercurrent of american religious life, where kids are … brainwashed, basically. Image
i think this movie has followed me around for most of my life because ive seen it from every perspective. initially, i was teenager atheist who had the perspective of the film: that this was all basically evil

later i turned my back on that perspective entirely, and saw it again Image

one of my favorite stories about america is from a guy who moved to west virginia to be a pastor. someone organized a garbage truck route to come through an extremely rural neighborhood, at a time when this cost some money. a nominal fee was passed over to the residents.

[…]
it was a trivial amount of money, but the residents there were so incensed that someone would do this without asking them and then stick them with the bill that they stopped doing anything at all with their trash, and just threw it outside until the plan was called off.

[…]
later, this pastor, who was there for this, wanted to pave the road leading up to their also extremely rural church. wanting to avoid any conflict, he called a meeting and laid out his plan: a truck will come, and dump gravel along the now dirt road, at minimal cost.

[…]

you hear stories like, person retires then dies very soon after. sometimes this is presented as loss of purpose, or tragic coincidence. my personal theory is the body never takes time “off” to heal so too much “backlog” builds up, then it hits all at once the second you slow down
this also explains the phenomenon of someone taking time off or going on vacation or finally taking a weekend and suddenly getting sick. seems like the universe playing a joke on you. “i never get sick, and im sick now, on my time off”. well, yeah, exactly. not a coincidence.
if a guy has a crazy huge presentation at his job, his mind can tell his body to push getting sick off until after it - or, someone in a situation where they “can’t” get sick usually won’t (this also happens often, once you notice it). apparently people can do this for decades.

the integration of AI and childhood education will progress unhindered unless there is a compelling, easily explainable, and intuitive reason for it to be hindered. below is an extreme example - a fully AI school, but this will be integrated into normal schools.

unless... [...]
unless there is a competing model that fully bars its integration. right now it's very easy for us to be online and laugh about this or dismiss it as openly ridiculous, but as the tech advances and becomes normalized, this will not not be enough to stop it. there's no "reason".
concerns about glitches in the tech will eventually dissipate or be confined or solved somehow, and you're going to left standing there while every classroom or school district has an AI component that has replaced some level of normal education.

so, what's the competition?

most people have no idea how psychoactive alkaloids work. why would they? i love coffee. look at this chart: if you drink coffee, after 500 minutes, the caffeine is still there. many people experience this feeling as anxiety. theyd never connect it to a cup of coffee 10 hours ago Image
ingesting substances can be modeled with an attack, decay, sustain, release model. each of these phases feels different. this is true for everything from psychedelics to caffeine. my contention is that many people experience the sustain and release period here as ambient stress: Image
they drink coffee. the attack period is what they want, thats good. the decay is fine. the sustain is way longer than they think. they “forget” about the coffee, but are “coming down” off it for hours. they look for an explanation for this feeling and never make the connection. Image
