laura’s aura

it looks like you could potentially screw it open and find a jay in there

A doofy looking bat

A fruit bat stuffing their face with banana

A bat with a silly long snoot

A bat with a big round belly and stupid little legs

Humans: Bats are EVIL, they suck BLOOD, they are literal DEMONS who must be KILLED

The bats in question:

oh no I would unfortunately unironically wear this if my glasses didn’t get in the way

so much of her presence in the press and “fame” seems very little to do with her music too that once she’s not in the news, she’s more likely to fade away

same. I think Americans overestimate her global presence & reach. Her fandom is very engaged & vocal, but it’s not cross cultural nor does it cross many demographics. if she ever has a global world cup anthem or album in a different language, I’d reconsider. She has a lot of time to change her print

the truth!

my willingness to be the fool and propensity for levity are really working against my desire to present as intelligent damn

it’s kind of cute. would wear this hat

how do you help people that confuse feelings with evidence

"Time is one of God's faces."

Yes

humans are incredible because everything they know can be thrown out the window if they experience an intense enough emotion

time passages says I have “high mental energy” today

I will face my desire to dunk.

I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the dunk has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

Then, I'll block the hell out of that shit.

omg thank you. I try to be very chill and kinda brief about the stars on the internet, but they’ve never led me astray

this comes to mind

moon is opposing mars today 😌

reminded that Mercury entered Scorpio today. time to read the alt text, the subtext, between the lines, and to say bye to small talk and surface conversations

I would like to go back to sleep but the moon said NOT SO FAST

I can’t wait until Venus is in Libra. can’t wait for everyone to kiss and makeup

this dog

something to think about

!!! Congratulations! woooooooo

now imagine that being a garbage person got you tons of attention, the illusion of influence (with money earning potential,) the illusion of community, solidarity, “likes,” and “friends”

an ineffective, dead end way to attempt to make change, make sense, and to accomplish anything that yields fruit is to pick a random person that likes or represents the thing that ails you, and to proceed to treat them like they’re solely responsible for a corporation, culture, ideology or movement

something something “neurons that fire together, wire together”

Screenshot from a paper about nomen est omen from academia.edu. Text says: The expression Nomen est omen is usually used in the context of nominative determinism to express the idea that the name determines human life, or more broadly that the name corresponds to the essence of an object. This phrase is related to the comediographer Plautus and in the collections of Latin proverbs is most often quoted as it is found in the 625th verse of his comedy "The Persian": Nomen atque omen. However, the context in which Plautus uses this phrase undoubtedly implies that it is part of a more complex wordplay. The wordplay is based on the semantic relation established between the personal name Lucris and the common noun lucrum, but it also involves the compound adjectives lucrifer, lucrificabilis, and the verbs adluceõ, inluceõ. The interpretations offered for the verse 625 and its immediate context are mainly focused on the issue whether the words Lucris and lucrum are etymologically related or not. The analysis conducted in this paper shows that in the word men in the syntagm nomen atque omen apart from the basic meaning, "sign, omen" there is an additional meaning "feature, what can be observed with an eye", i.e. there is a specific semantic shift from foresight (task of the mind) to sight (task of the eye). It is exactly

😂 it is! I feel like it’s one of those things that if it wasn’t ancient or established, it would beg to exist bc examples are always happening everywhere, like Bianca censori always naked or sam altman trying to make alts lol I first read about it in a Mary beard book called laughing on Ancient Rome

y e s

we could really use some crop circles right now

if you’re up late making the hoes mad, you should pivot to making the hoes happy

the Laura language model is very very consistent
