I just had this vision of some random person sitting down to play a video game on their DS and saying "Ah, time for me to enjoy some unproblematic media!" and then the company logo screen pops up and says "A Kiwi Farms Game" and they get jumpscared -

@Arcana @nik i don't think any identity can be inherently constraining or objectifying when you get a decent say in defining what it means yourself. i personally have found "girltwink" to be a pretty helpful word towards reclaiming my body as female. its a little stupid but i would definitely not call it self harm -

The greatest criticism I have of anarchism is that everything in the world on a molecular level is and can only ever be comprised of control systems. Objectively (mechanically) there is no difference between, say, an organism breathing to maintain its coherence and a state employing the use of armed forces to suppress dissent. Of course I personally would be more likely to take the inconsistent position here (for the organism and against the state) but I see this more as an individual human desire than a solid framework. I reject morality as an exercise as painting a subjective thing as objective.
Escape from control systems is a literally unimaginable thing. The best we can do is imagine a world where they’re softened up a little in proximity to us. For instance looking at heaven and hell (and utopian/dystopian futures) we see a faraway mythological land that cannot affect our reality, and within which no individual or collective could ever impose their will. Whether these places promise eternal suffering, eternal bliss, or anything in between doesn’t really matter–what matters is that your suffering or bliss does not matter. The fantasy of death is to be irrelevant and useless.
So ultimately I would say anarchism has led to some pretty interesting places, but it has a really long way to go. We may never develop the tools to truly confront cybernetics, but I think progress is possible on some fronts.

Outline of the problem at hand is as follows: Induction (machine learning, typically data compression) is clearly the most effective method of storing data about a given environment. Abduction, which I outlined in my post (will edit link in a sec), requires reasoning about data stored during the inductive step on a low level. (I saw a paper a while ago showcasing visual abduction through induction [essentially image recognition but with cause/effect relationships rather than regular image labels], but this was high-level instead of low-level. May still have some promise anyway, so could start there.) So in order to reason about this stored data, it needs to either not be compressed (this would require compromises on performance and the creation of a new symbolic induction framework) or somehow just work with the compressed data anyway (only thing I can see for this is the previously explained high-level idea or more broadly “minimizing surprise”). My gut reaction is to prioritize work on the first of these, as it seems to be more of a profound paradigm shift and night even play well with scaling if a much weaker inductive system can be justified, but on the other hand the second will probably be easier. Realistically though compression should still be used whenever possible. Also, both of these approaches seem to be feasible projects. -

Fedi (or Twitter or anything else like it) is not a good place for facilitating communication between people. @puzzlebark first floated this idea to me a few weeks ago and I didn't really understand it at the time, but the recent friction between everyone has really convinced me that this can never really work. I hate posts. I hate timelines. People don't fucking talk to each other on here. I hate the town square model. You can't have a town square without a fucking town.
This lack of any real interaction is perhaps what has made fedi/twitter/whatever so alluring to people like me, who are really just antisocial edgelords that love fucking up people's timelines. Of course the problem is that the place is a sealed chamber: the largely antisocial userbase needs a way to turn friendships from fedi into real things, but they have no idea how to facilitate irl solidarity or a healthy Discord server or whatever the fuck. Ironically this makes it actually easier to form emotional connections with people on here because we're all stuck here together, but these emotions aren't based on any actual social interactions. When she posts good etc etc
Like on the surface--what the "town square" model is really for--we see people posting about their ideological contours. Their edges. Where they end and not-them begins. What subversion looks like is posting more mundane things, random things that you might experience during typical social interaction with them. Yet replying to such posts in kind breaks the code of keeping everything as far away from actual social interaction as possible, so discussions here never really seem to last if they aren't about some contentious topic.
Ultimately I personally feel that this place may have enabled my recent extremely reclusive real-life behavior (though there are of course other factors) and I will be more critical about my engagement with it in the future. Am I just coping about human social interaction feeling like it is inherently unworkable for people like me by blaming it on a specific social network structure? Maybe. Things on here are real, which is why they're even more insidiously fake. In case it wasn't obvious from my avatar I hate everyone else here. -
