You can lead a Geminaut to posts, but you can't make them reply

Nicely productive day, including:

Creating Lua scripts to solve a broken links annoyance
Hanging wreaths to the sides of the garage door
Setting up a new coffee maker in late Mister Coffee's stead
Helping my wife with indoor holiday decorations
Exploring more Gemini spaces
Decarboxylating some weed

On finding my equilibrium

Burnout will happen (although I have become much better now to self-regulate and prevent it) sooner or later. But there are only so many extremist niches I can hide myself in and some of them are frankly not the kind of place I ought to be. I mean, after having burned out by all this, would I become a "Christian" Nationalist? A Neonazi? A Trotskyist? A modern-day Pol Pot? I just don't want to keep doing this.

I came to feel similarly about the human realm in general:

"It's always the same."
      - Robert Smith

However, awareness of awareness ("behind the within") reveals how it couldn't be otherwise: Nothing remains Nothing regardless how it seemingly pretends to be endless spacetime somethings.

What's up Willow?!

I'm disgusted with what I'm seeing, and I'm disgusted with myself for even giving a damn about politics any more.

Indeed. Complete and total waste of time. Robots perfecting psychosis.

Good thing participation isn't mandatory.
