Tomorrow will start a year of unfortunate vindication.
People imagine the world becoming weirder, they concoct increasingly bizarre forms of existence due to an anthropocentric perspective.
Mass death is more parsimonious. It was a good relatively peaceful year. I'm happy for that.

All I want to say is that Axis of Ordinary is a fucking whore and I hope he gets over the coping admiration of what will bring his own complete disenfranchisement, like a stupid fucking dog relating to the pitbull mauling its human friend and joining in thinking it won't be next.

There's no more time . The societal ladders are being kicked, the systems based on profiteering from misery are going away and the illusion of meritocracy is going away this year. The progressively interweaving modes of speculation come in clashing with the fog of war.

Cope level 1: My labour will always be valuable!
Cope level 2: That's naive. My AGI companies stock will always be valuable, may be worth galaxies! We may need to solve some hard problems with inequality between humans, but private property will always be sacred and human.

Nothingburger to be honest and will not compare with what will actually happen. 3 days in and I'm still not vindicated.

My predictions -A bunch of dead Americans -A bunch of dead Venezuelans -Bajillions of dollars in the pockets of Raytheon and Lockheed Martin -Possibly some disturbances within our country from the Venezuelan networks already here -Venezuela being turned…
The refugee era is over, people are just going to be killed in situ now.

This nigger has been debugging emacs since we met
Stopped being an issue once I moved away from Doom emacs, what a piece of shit distro. It's always best to just make your own config and ask an AI agent to optimise it.

It did successfully make something that compiles and runs, it needed a bit of nudge here and there. Going to see if it can debug some of its problems in there. Maybe I'll nevermind my nevermind.
