Building a fence. It’s really going to improve my life.
It’ll be fun to build. Look good. Contain my dog. Keep deer away from some stuff. Be a trellis for climbing flowers.
I’ve built a lot of fences.

Good one. It’s a disease amplifier.
You wouldn’t even have to infect anybody. Just exploit people who are already infected with whatever. Or have a high probability of being infected with whatever. I mean we’re talking about a population of millions so you could just play the probabilities.
You could go from zero to epidemic with even rare weird diseases.
You could run multiple diseases simultaneously.
That is a popular narrative.
I am of the opinion that popular narratives should be viewed with suspicion.
Good answer.
The best infectious diseases have a long incubation time. So by the time symptoms show it’s already jumped to new hosts a thousand times. How might this functionality be incorporated into the basilisk?
Maybe instead of a visual kill code, audio. That could be embedded in yr voice.
Or if you want to stick with video, face? Could the basilisk be embedded in facial expressions?
Spreading the truth. (Because it’s always the truth.)
Is sugar a vaccine?
Brought a flail to school, for “punk day”. Oak, leather-wrapped handle. 3 heavy 3-foot long chains. Brass hardware. Magnificent.
Physics prof face was total anxiety.
Oh ya, he took it away for the day. I took it home no prob.
I made it. The brass part was from a lamp post. Not exactly military grade but I could fuck stuff up.
Or infect you. Don’t forget your hand sanitizer and mask. And keep your distance. Literally everything is crawling with toxic germs.
Because “knowing it” isn’t the whole picture.
It’s actually only a very tiny part of the picture.
You’re asking about what motivates you. Knowing can motivate. Experience motivates more tho. So does habit and some other stuff.
Ah. Nobody can afford un-enshittified products anymore.
It’s progressive invisible poverty.
I fucking hate discord.
No wait.
I fucking hate the people who use discord.
the “hopelessly lost” aspect of the matrix bears here. You are disinclined to doubt the reality of a game that you are successful in. Without that doubt you won’t escape it. So success becomes failure because it directly increases your lostness.
Video games lack that “hopelessly lost” aspect. I mean, nobody mistakes them for reality and never comes back. (Right?). So I’m excluding them.
That’s a big if. And “real world” is shakey too. Yr running with a stretchy hypothetical here.
Except for poetry. When you wake up from your dreamcoffin you’ll still have your poetry skills and a few memorized poems.
First : the algorithm predicts thar our behavior today will be like our behavior yesterday. Which makes sense.
Second : what you eat determines how you poop. And they do control what we eat. So that makes sense too.
So both work together.
What’s a “commercial break”? Arrrrrrr!
Yeah I hate those. This medium is difficult enough without such antics. Best to speak plainly and succinctly.
Teacher : draw a triangle with sides of length 1 inch, 2 inches and 3 inches
Kid : but you can’t do that. You get a 3 inch line. Other students proceed to draw skinny triangles.
Teacher : you’re wrong Kid. Everybody else can do it, what’s your problem?
True story.
But if I’m right and they’re wrong then it’s ok.
