I call for this man’s abortion.

Sure sure, though I think at that point the semantics of the word “direct” is probably something we would discuss and find common ground at. By direct I simply mean whatever the shortest VIABLE route is, which may end up being quite circuitous.

Ah… So if I’m reading you right, you’re saying:

Yes, no system currently accounts for what we NEED it to do. So the most DIRECT solution would be to create a new movement, a new SYSTEM of people, control, and influence that transcends existing abstractions like nationalities, race, culture, and have this ontologically encompassing system implement that change from its larger frame of reference.

I like that. I hadn’t considered that approach and it’s probably right on the money. I think the first step is recognition of the issue and the need for such a movement. As such… Have you thought about names?

Something you would call such an endeavor, or movement, or coalition. Something that would be instantly recognizable as to what the goal or at least spirit or attitude behind it would be? Probably seems like a silly thing to fixate on this early, but sometimes the right name is a powerful tool.

Well you got to work ontologically. A nation is a system with existing controls. And national control is already dicey at best. Implementing a direct solution at the international level would require a system that to my knowledge doesn’t even exists. We treat the UN like an optional club not a world government.

Well could we somehow do it via serial number on the notes maybe? Like let’s say we use the event to denote a switch to color money instead of green only. And then we say in 10 years, all green money is expired and worthless, so every note has to come back into the Treasury to get renewed, and at that time be potentially subjected to repatriation taxes.

Think something like that could work?

… Did Trump just preside over the first F15 loss in history?

Oh yeah, I just mean academically. We would need to be on a much different anti oligarchy footing to actually implement. But in the meantime, I like to noodle out systems and mechanisms.

Let’s say we eventually get to a renewed trust buster energy like we used the last time we broke up the corporate giants long ago.

Is there anything we could realistically do even with full control of the government, or is that money basically propping up the entire interconnected world economy?

Wonder if there’s a way to force all outstanding Treasury notes outside of the country to need to return back to treasury for renewal or otherwise be written off at invalid debt.

Occam’s razer would probably cut this down to:

-Trump is a senile old man -Trump likely has Narcissistic Personality Disorder (possibly way more) -Trump is easily manipulated by his obvious levers of pride and greed -Trump has done plenty of things that have made him an easy blackmail target

This just makes him a puppet for anyone that has a higher IQ than him, which is not a high bar to clear.

Ah, your brain works like mine, it see the simple math everywhere.

Yeah, this is true. I just like to tinker. I already pay for one AI tool for like actual use as a tool in my life. The self hosted image thing attempt was like, hey my next home lab project, let’s see how easy it is to just get an image generated from scratch with nothing currently setup! The answer I found was, "you still need more training grasshopper. Much to learn. "

I tried to setup some kinda self hosted AI image generation last month. I didn’t know wtf I was doing and accomplished nothing. Need to give it another try.

I always hear the “it’s ok for boys to have sex” part and I guess I’m a pod person but me and my entire circle of friends would say neither sex should be promiscuous. So we’d say both the men and women in question are whores. Also, it’s a proven fact that a small percentage of men get the majority of attention from women on dating apps. So I’d wager the average male’s body count is lower than the average woman’s.

And no I’m not saying the online vitriole is ok, good, or warranted. I’m specifically talking about the idea of celebrating high body counts of men. I’m just saying no one I know thinks a man having a high body count is a good thing. But that line is always said so confidently.

Damnit!

What’s the difference between kicking a country out of NATO vs all the other countries just saying, ok NATO2, same members minus one?

Am neurodivergent too. Boundaries are important. On a side note, I never understood pride in things you have no control over. May as well be proud of being carbon based.

Front page, I believe was what they called themselves. But yeah, it’s been a glorious fall.

Why don’t you just charge it when you’re not using it? Then you spend zero time on batteries.
