this is the exact way a seven year old would draw a car, but in a good way. driving this at 80 mph with six or seven kids inside seems very nomad warrior chieftain vibes, carting your clan around on the back of some forgotten quadruped: https://hell.twtr.plus/media/df1ea450b66d3d473b6bafd5e1c5f29dafb55982ffcf629ec452bc7af5c0c08b.file

dont know anything about cars. got a minivan since i have two kids. remarked to a friend that it was surprisingly tank like, and that i enjoyed this. he told me theres a subculture of guys who add off road wheels and raise up their minivans. really appreciating how insane this is https://hell.twtr.plus/media/d883e44a7384bab33875c89ed0c0cf9af8a8b58d0e9be08c83e8cf97f67836e6.file

the slang term “face card” is the face perceived as an object and insignia, like calling card. it is not “the face” as a face itself.

once in my early 20s i went to see my cousins family for christmas and they gave me some kind of hypertech google remote that connected your TV to your laptop to your stereo and i had no way to politely indicate i was a broke artist who slept on the floor of an empty apartment

“yeah uhhh actually this cake goes extra super super extra well with coffee”. wow really hans. ill take twelve boxes. thats what happened. we dont need to collectively have stockholm syndrome about it. this is still going on after multiple centuries.

recently learned there is no coffee in coffee cake. absolute sham. now i tell people this and they say “well yeah, it goes with coffee”. all cake goes with coffee. thats just cake. why are you defending this. because some 17th century german baker ran a psyop on you. on all of us

you may be familiar with the story of thales, the first greek to develop the ability to predict eclipses, who then used this knowledge to impress or gain leverage over others. this became a ubiquitous tale - there’s a very funny twist on it here in ‘born to rebel’ by sulloway: https://hell.twtr.plus/media/2f6cd1bee083f2e7684becfb438bd5ece5a697a0cd087bd8b0ab62c07843f527.file

i used to be entirely past oriented in my spiritual endeavors: i knew the answer was in the past. this may be true, but i realized i would never be a citizen of the past: that the solution can’t be “rewinding the tape” - the tape got us here. the answer has to contain the future.

i probably heard this story about fifteen years ago from a teacher. really, it says everything about the skillful use of fame. using the persona and egregore as a tool, not just something that happens to you. i told a painter this tale once and he was extremely upset by it (lol)

they told him it was getting difficult, even for academics, to tell the fakes apart from the real ones. and he says, "exactly. after i die, people will think my bad work is his, and his good work is mine".
