When explorers found out that Earth was flat after all, they mounted expeditions beyond the edge to climb the gears of Heaven.

@contraultra it was no problem. i really need to fing out a way to make that experience better though.

Who all is using the node version? I’m more of a JS hacker so I might contribute to that, but the .py version seems more popular.

@xena@xena.greedo.xeserv.us True, but the syntax it uses is so different from what I’m used to on bash/zsh

Attack it! Tunnel into it, fashion iridescent sculptures from its ice, gift the frozen dreams of others to unsuspecting strangers.

I think we need something to tell us if we go beyond the 140 chars.

@edsu@edsu.github.io I’d prefer to use the timestamp instead. People might delete messages or rearange them.

/me waves to @escowles https://escowles.github.io/tw.txt

I hope this thing is at least pretending to be more robust now

The structure is now imprinted on the mold. As it eats itself, it will vanish into formlessness.↵It is really bad luck to touch it.

I might have to rewrite the tweet parsing stuff, it’s pretty janky atm

this is starting to feel dumb

how about using ‘mbox’ format for twtxt selectively? we could only use ‘From:’, ‘To:’, ‘Date:’, ‘Subject:’ etc.

on the other hand if you wish to make a system “readable” and intuitive, make it as physical as possible.

politics are not subject to newton’s laws

The intuitive force metaphors of humans in complex systems break down whenever there is no counterforce. This leads people to commit errors:

added these aliases to my .profile to make sending/receiving a bit easier

that seemed to work, yay …. uh yeah

trying to see how I can make git commit/push silently

now to make the submit form

Now getting to twtxtlist!

@kopachris it might be better to just abuse h’s site

Or is that just where timelines go to die, replaced by a hot loop, and the universe very actively winnows out those knowing such a language?

Those threads dust likes to form? I just pulled on one and it disintegrated into a cloud along its whole length, floating down slowly.

Plant an oak, confess to the seedling, let it absolve you. But the more dreadful the secret, the more crooked the oak. People will wonder.

A question so ill-posed to be ungrammatical, yet the answer so impeccable and merciless.

Your “I” should be gone now, the mirrors contained it. Recoalesce when you want to.

You desperately want to come home and find your tribe, but nearly always there is this nagging doubt.

Finding the right community is a journey: How do two people find out to lack the same idea if they cannot articulate it or even think it?

One: no unity. No identity. Nothing exists except in relation to another. Nothing is singular. They don’t even have a definite article.

Thesis: It is better for the building of a Tower of Babel to fail, than it is to succeed. This applies to any such tower.

The timeless refer to day and night as the hot and cool place. Motion is connection, not velocity. Ironically, they build great clocks.

The borderless have never learnt to count, for all is one inseparable. They are masters of shapes, everything they build fits in its place.

The ontotypical mainstream consisted of people whose minds had taken only grazing hits. Still, language adapted in fascinating ways. Had to.

Those affected became unable to think certain thoughts: if they so much as resembled the killed idea, they fizzled.

Drain the ocean to catch Moby Dick.

One day the Giant King ordered to have his own map made.

They had alchemists breed gargantuan trees, and conscripted giants to play the part of the citizens. Wagons that could transport palaces.

He instructed to create a 10:1 map of his kingdom, so that he could study it in more detail. Every flower, bush, animal, ten times the size.

You will notice a lack of dandelion. This is because dandelion have souls and need them to blossom. They are among the few affected species.

It was as if the absent soul didn’t make a difference.↵But until today, walk the old battlefield and you will struggle to hold on to yours.

Light that doesn’t bleach color, but instead intensifies it. The inventor, overexposed by mistake, took months to lose his technicolor tint.

Diving down to the noise floor to find the rare memetic treasure scattered there.

how to rationalize X for maximum hilarity

We end up in tight symbiosis, taking it along in our starships, it becomes our signature. The last black hole to die looks slightly green.

Those that like to solve mysteries, and those that leave them. Which will leave the world richer?

Cheaters have been known to train at home to be able to fake helium voices while talking with normal air.

A game in which, after beating all the bosses, you are cursed to be the next.

I went to the abyss, but brought a large mirror. The abyss stared, and recoiled at its own sight. That is how I crossed the abyss.

now the cyberspace pulls in the world, and the world pulls in the cyberspace, and they will finally merge. an end to progress as we know it?

It was an experiment we did not repeat and we had to sign a non-proliferation treaty.↵That dull sense of loss? Yeah. That’s what’s left.

Humans dance their bodies around things to infuse them with meaning, e.g. a sacrificial fire↵They do the same dance with words, around ideas

Mind you he was a sweet person and very intelligent. But a dog. (You wouldn’t have been able to tell at a glance)

The immortals sit on a lot of memories to pay with, and have experienced emotions believed extinct. We often cut those with lesser produce.

I was hired to come up with a DRM scheme for their output.↵you wonder how you can’t understand even those closest to you?↵that’s why.

The grammatical I has about as much claim to reality as grammatical gender.

That ear splitting wail from a badly set up microphone hooked to a sound system? That is the sound of a life, all lived over a few seconds.

soul is now stuck in a brain case with exceedingly low bandwidth to other souls↵talk about bad luck↵you could’ve been a world soul instead

standardized track lengths aligned to equidistancial radii on the LP↵tracks released as “outer disk” and “inner disk” versions

ear rings and top hats that are also music↵color coding of tracks of an LP to highlight track borders↵recombined LPs when the lengths match

popular song rings that you’d recognize by their proportions alone↵special adapters to make them play on traditional record players
