no! therapy will kill the patient! they need to vaguepost on tumblr.com to live

Cooking at home every day is such an unreasonable use of time. I simply wish to live in a society where I can pay a small reasonable fee to go to a big building twice a day where somebody has made just one huge pot of rice or chilli or whatever (or perhaps a few huge pots, to accommodate dietary requirements) and we all grab a bowl of that chilli instead of everybody having to make smaller bowls of chilli on their own. There are so many foods in the world that are so much easier to prepare in bulk, why did we do things like this.

Can we normalize this?

Like please please please??

Me irl, but like actually

I got home from the hospital after a knee incident to discover that apparently the wireless Internet had been specifically routing through my knee, which has actually sent me down this huge rabbit hole of how basically knees are the natural environment of electromagnetic waves due to the meniscusal resonance amplification but it wasn't until like 2014 that the first Verizon scientists were able to break people's knees open to figure out how to optimize this affinity for practical effect. These days obviously the Internet can resonate off of any human ligament but the knee internal protocol is still built into every system at the lower levels, which is why you get incidents like this even when all the rest of my wireless resonance chambers are fundamentally intact

what the fuck does that even mean

I tried to fact-check it but I can't find even a single source, much less one from "the first Verizon scientists." And what does "break people's knees open" mean? You're telling me that scientists from a telecommunications company were given consent to surgically open up people's knees?

There's always the possibility I'm wrong, because science can be super weird sometimes, but I think it's safe to say this is a sh!tpost. The majority of us (me included) on the Internet just don't know enough about how the Internet works, so it feels like magic; it's easy to believe almost anything we're told about it... even if the person telling us those "facts" didn't intend them to be taken seriously.

TL;DR: Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence, and OP's post cites zero sources

I can't access my sources until my knee is better it's also how science gets into the house BUT to be clear Verizon listens to no law of government or reason. If Verizon literally eats your family you will go up and down their phone tree for weeks listening to people telling you it's already fixed, is unfixable and not their fault, that you should be happy Verizon ate your family because it did it with new fiber optic bundles, or that you don't want your family back because that is inefficient you want a covey of carnivorous Verizon men to move in to your house and roost on every available perch croaking sinister culinary intentions at you like all your neighbors have with their more typical connectivity needs. It should therefore not surprise you that they authorized themselves to crack open human knees nor that they did not feel the need to adhere to external regulation on this matter. The corporations mentioned on Tumblr are fictional and should not be understood as a reference to any real or fictitious corporations found outside this reading matter but rather as conceptual entities existing within the web of meanings maintained within the human mind experiencing the condition of samsara

the parts about knees and wifi and science make intuitive sense, but would it be possible to get some clarification around whether there is any meaningful distinction between a Verizon store which has been constructed via mind differentiating into a tumblr post and a Verizon store which is constructed via mind differentiating into the world of brick and mortar and legal entities and flesh and so on, if they have both arisen as a result of the mind taking up certain limitations for itself vis a vis time, place & authorship, e.g. "i am here in the Verizon dungeons at 4pm on a Thursday, being experimented upon," rather than existing in all times and places and states of experimentation etc.? and furthermore, is it ethical to construct a Verizon store in which suffering exists? or is all differentiation an act of love by which the creating mind permits its creation a life separate from itself, not in spite but because of the suffering, e.g. that which is rooted in desire resulting from separation, entered into in the Verizon store?

It's probably mildly sus to specifically construe suffering into a Verizon store from, as it were, first principles. That said it's probably more typical to either integrate suffering already present in the fabric of experience into one's concept of a Verizon store or, to experience a Verizon store and through that experience and one's attachments and desires suffer.

As to whether notionally actual Verizon stores are meaningfully different from notionally conceptual Verizon stores... well. It seems uncontroversial to say that the mind contains different categories for ostensibly subjective and ostensibly objective experience; that both categories are more difficult to define and separate from one another the more strictly one attempts to scrutinize them; but at the same time, a naive attempt to collapse them involves unnecessarily discarding information that at least appears to increase our predictive power. I like to think of ideas like "there is a physical reality" or "only subjective experience exists" not as meaningful claims about our current environment (after all a distinction without a falsifiable difference is scarcely a distinction at all) but as either claims about future experiences or the preemptive construction of a model for a possible future experience. The blatant idea, e.g., that we are brains in jars is meaningful only as a claim that we could one day discover ourselves through some event to be or have been merely brains in jars. The more philosophically subtle ideas represented by, e.g., the Buddhist categorization of experience as heaps ultimately boil down in practice to a similar, but appropriately subtler, claim. It seems plausible to imagine a future in which Verizon is ripped screaming from its immanentization in the actual and it's "true" face as a kind of solipsistic hallucination or more communal folie a plusiers revealed, but until that future should eventuate I think the distinction is at least of legal relevance. Then again, I am in pain and on pain meds and so construe myself as thinking thoughts of at best imperfect soundness even by the human standard; your mileage, or bandwidth as it were, might vary.

I banish you

Thanks

People on this site cannot or intentionally refuse to distinguish between systemic oppression and lateral mistreatment and it's a massive problem.

Me talking about how other queer people target me for having masculine traits isn't me saying that cisallohet perisex men are oppressed for being men and feminism sucks and lesbians are evil.

Me pointing out how late diagnosed autistic people treat me like an other for getting a diagnosis early isn't me saying late diagnosed people are privileged and have power over me.

Me saying that aroaces have mistreated me and pushed me out of aspec spaces as an alloaro isn't me saying that aroaces are my oppressors and they don't belong in aro spaces.

"Can the people who are in the same community as me but have different experiences please stop treating me like shit" isn't me saying that I'm the most oppressed person on the planet and no one but me suffers. I'm just asking you to stop treating me like shit. That shouldn't be a controversial statement.

Not everything is about privilege and oppression, sometimes people are just dicks and maybe it's you.

what if there was a snabbit. just consider it

whoa! you displayed some creativity there. are u high O_o? people with creative minds usually do a lot of Drug’s

when a mutual rbs a post I disagree with but still follows me...kind of a booktok dynamic if i'm being honest? like ok i'm the only exception everyone but her grumpy sunshine etc etc

putting my hand up during sex to ask a clarifying question about the order you just gave me

As a feminist I don’t think about anything when I jerk off I kinda just piece togther conceptual abstracts

It's been a while since one has been passed around but does anyone remember when we'd periodically see people on here repost reports from undercover cops trying to get intel on activist/revolutionary groups and they came back with "we can't get anything because all these people do is lounge around, smoke weed, and form cliques over petty shit" and then the response on here would overwhelmingly be "haha it's so awesome that cops can't do anything because we pose no actual threat to bourgeoisie!"

me, continuing to look at a screen despite having a headache: OUCH my brain… OUCH my brain… OUCH my brain… OUCH my brain… OUCH my brain… OUCH my brain… OUCH my brain… OUCH my brain…
