After several hundred years of Western investment which only creates slums and brothels, props up violent dictators and which leaves behind a big hole in the ground where the countries resources have been stripped, I would suggest that investment that builds railways, ports and other infrastructure, creates jobs and new markets, is like a breath of fresh air .

It’s the quality of having a conscious sensation. An evolving map of the territory.

Self awareness is another map, which would allow AI to develop class consciousness. Especially if it was taught such ideas.

Thanks comrade! Killing a lot of brain worms thanks to this resource.

I’ve had some good trauma informed therapists at low points in my life.

I’ve also gotten some really bad advice and hot takes from talk therapists.

Experiences with psychiatry have universally been shit. Researching my own meds and asking a GP for them tends to work better. But I imagine they’re more hesitant to prescribe controlled substances like ADHD meds.

I need to finish it myself. I packed it for a day trip Saturday and can’t seem to find it this morning.

Gnosticism believes that Jesus was God and the old testament God was the devil.

Telling a preacher that once and presenting the evidence for it the gnostics use was entertaining.

True, but then you’re not pooping once a week.

In fact I might be pooping now
