Is she dead yet thread?
I keep trying to shut up, but: 1) I am on Modafinil which works for me but at the cost of making one chattier (my least favorite side effect of a class of drugs I find useful that aside); 2) I am poking at this unwieldy mess of information (I suppose that is the best term) as a solitary human who is too asocial to take cues from people and now follows DU/Coleman Spillde/Yasha Levine/Chris Ketcham/Marina Bolotnikova etc for behavioral cues…

How are people social? I don’t quite get it?
I am sociable to necessary extents in routine contexts. But this is such a hairball..the internet plus ai and agents and yeesh..it is never very clear who is at what level of knowledge of tech and what they are doing with it and what is straightforward. And people have the realities they want to see implemented and I..I am okay with team work in routine ways. But a bunch of ott stuff has totally screwed me over and ..

I feel ostriches are misunderstood..Maybe they just.. identity issues!
