Anyone else’s phone suddenly takes forever to load apps and the battery draining really quickly?

It’s been happening since about a week ago and I have a pretty new phone too.

What if the multiverse is really just our collective minds connected by physical reality? So, each mind is its own universe and physical reality is the plane in which we connect those realities.

Observation about Pluto in Scorpio (1983-1995) which brought a wave of smoking bans and anti-smoking ads.

Yall thinking RizzBot is funny but it’s collecting data on human behavior responses. They sell that data to companies who will train/socialize AI robots that have an allegiance to corporate elites. #AI #robots #corporatism #tech #rizzbot #sociology

As Gemini energy merges into Cancer, we’ll see a radical restructuring of the geopolitical landscape—we’ll enter an era of decolonization & fallen western empires; a rise in Africa & Global South.

A rise in socialism, communes, and collectives as imperialism, capitalism and colonialism collapses.

I believe as Uranus Gemini progresses through its degrees, conflict evolves from siblings to neighbors, from cousins to countrymen, and lastly fellow humans and neighboring countries.

By the end of this Uranus Gemini transit, we will likely see the climax of a Third World War.

Go watch the last scene of Andor season 2, episode 7 ‘The Messenger’.

That’s where we are currently at on this timeline.

You are right 💚

Filler episodes do originate from anime but has evolved and manifested in various other mediums.

They were originally used by writers to avoid overtaking a manga’s narrative but we can find examples in Breaking Bad, GoT, Doctor Who, and Supernatural.

Slang has always been used as a language of resistance to authority. With elites controlling AI and LLMs that now flood the internet, we will evolve to rely on key slang words, used in appropriates contexts, that will express our authentic identities in ways AI and imposters will do erratically.

Let’s talk about how slang used to take a generation to evolve and now it takes weeks.

Studies have show LLMs trained on human languages struggle to keep up with how quickly we develop new slang.

Slang develops primarily among the youth and marginalized groups outside of the mainstream. #ai #slang

MAGA realized after the first South Park episode that “not getting the joke nor finding it funny” comes off as stupid and out of touch.

After Ep.2, they’ve pivoted by trying to kill the joke by trying to be “in” on the joke.

The irony is that they’re still being reactionary and we still make fun.

What if we just made our own organization to counter ICE’s illegal raids?

Fuck, man. I just read that people are now selling AI prompts to people who are too stupid/lazy to think of their own prompts.

Critical thinking will be dead in a generation.

I’m rewatching Dexter and it’s so clear how much this show influenced Mr. Robot—particularly the monologuing antisocial anti-hero. But, it’s most evident in the last scene of Dexter’s season 1 finale.

Ohhhh, man.

Have you seen Andor? It’s the best Star Wars. It centers the grassroots rebellion over the “chosen ones” with superpowers.

The “chosen one” archetype derives from the “divine right of kings”.

“Only the chosen one/king can save us” 🙄

Anyway, you’re right—it’s propaganda of the elites.

To cite history, we have the Habsburg Royals who inbred to maintain political and economic power.

And, we have the Irish famine/genocide perpetuated by the British Empire to maintain political and economic power.

Homogeny and monoculture are quite literally antithetical to evolutionary life.

‘Homogeny’ and ‘monoculture’ are not interchangeable terms.

But, both operate on the principle of uniformity at the expense of diversification.

We know what happens when people inbreed for generations and we know what happens when we rely on a single crop that is more susceptible to disease.

Ignoring Trump's interference, Brazil gives a lesson in holding former leaders accountable, as they put Bolsonaro under house arrest. He is accused of staging a coup to stay in power. Sound familiar, America? #Brazil #Accountability

Damn, South Park really is the ‘political cartoon’ of the contemporary times.

Do y’all know what we call the classic format of political cartoons now? Memes.

Astrocartography related, I think I would greatly benefit moving away from the energy that my natal chart experiences in Houston.

It can best be summed up as an energetic pressure cooker. The longer I’ve lived here, the more tense my environment has felt, and it’s suffocating.
