alright so now that we’ve firmly established ourselves as someone who doesn’t know what the fuck we’re talking about, i would like to pause for a moment to consider the overall direction of the blog. so far, we’re mostly just trying to figure out what we actually want to do in this space. that’s kind of going to be a messy process, but we think we’re going to end up somewhere interesting, at least. we like to work with the garage door up (bonus points if that link tells you anything about our history of using note-taking applications lmao). we also have pretty strong feelings about intellectual honesty and making the way our thoughts and philosophies have changed and grown over time as obvious as possible. (when reasonable. if something we post does or causes harm it’s going down.) i fully expect us to discover and/or completely change our mind about specific parts of our framework if we find something that works better.

I think it’s also high time we came up with some new methodology for creating and refining the kind of tech that would be useful for us. I think we’ve neared the limit of what it’s possible to learn without actually incorporating our own praxis. Something we’ve been attempting for the better part of the last few months, but which seems to work more slowly than I’d otherwise hope. starting the fieldnotes section in order to better capture little details we might otherwise lose track of.
first targets:
- find a way to incorporate fictive learning into our process. procedures? thought experiments?
- how to do that instinctively? who would be good at it? might just be a piece of grounding in the void
- scrape together enough income to kick off some kind of feedback loop for the cule. need to get out of the state.
- you can help, dear reader! support us on our ko-fi!
