But I feel like today there has been an especially strong feeling for wishing I was a woman, I literally looked at video ddlc cosplayer and felt like cry because I could never be or look like her no matter how hard I tried
It’s useless anyway, I’m too ugly and hairy to ever to ever be a girl and too weak and pathetic to ever be a man and I’m just too fucked up looking in general to be non binary
I’ve just realised how much I want to be a girl
I don’t know what happened today because for the longest time I’ve had feelings of wanting to be the opposite sex really just so I would be looked at less weirdly for the stuff I like and I would be judged for acting a certain way.But I feel like today there has been an especially strong feeling for wishing I was a woman, I literally looked at video ddlc cosplayer and felt like cry because I could never be or look like her no matter how hard I tried

INTERPOL: The international police are on you, Citizen. Tangling alliances are just what France does, only deduced by the water; with gratuity included in salary, a real position of work, as a servant; just like all you kids, working in vice and prostitution; for corrections, "Jimmy Hoffa", the meat industry among ex-convicts.
"The Oil Company": Israel will give you oil; pork products, will fund the oil, but not for "habeebi"; the Arab given swine as a child, the English; and certainly not shellfish, for our little friend, "Whitey" to dislike; unless you're gay, "Whitey was not nice", "who knows what he's planning tonight". Kuwait will get you on the plane; because you banned "The Mossad", with "Y2K".

Wallpapers
Post wallpapers. Images, youtube playlists, gifs, html pages. Today I share an ancient one that I resurrected by taking a ported version of the wallpaper swf from the HAL project and running it with ruffle and the KDE Wallpaper Engine plugin. You can find the new version (e.g. video, not flash) on youtube. Demo quality not representative.- I packaged all files together for convenience, but if you do not trust, then just take the project json, html, and swfs and download the selfhosted ruffle js and wasm from them directly.
- You can use this with linux-wallpaperengine or KDE wallpaper engine plugin or wallpaper engine on windows. In the near future you can use it with waywallen.

As much as it is more or less trve, stop saying "Trans women have female brains w/ male bodies" or anything of the sort.
It is far more accurate to specify that we have qualitatively female brains whereas our brains are more androgynous or like neither sex on a quantitative level; the former is less dependent on receiving HRT as well.
To do otherwise is extremely misleading, and will turn people off from the movement.

More broadly speaking, it is better to stop fighting/advocating for trans people specifically than it is to risk more bad activism or science miscommunication making our reputation worse; evidently, visibility towards trans people specifically is generally a bad thing, as everyone, by default, will see us as sub-human and incompatible with life, and the burden is on us to prove otherwise.

The point of being trans is that it is an anti-identity, and that you necessarily have both male and female responsibilities, and let's keep it that way.
Dear trans "allies"
I put "allies" in quotation marks because "ally" can range from someone who actually empathizes with us, to those whose sympathy rests on being in one political camp instead of the other and who, in fact, makes the situation worse, in ways that should be obvious to them (IE Agent Kochinski, QueerKidsStuff, the blyat that made the genderbreadman/GenderUnicorn that was everywhere when I was in middle school)As much as it is more or less trve, stop saying "Trans women have female brains w/ male bodies" or anything of the sort.

The ComputerBase article (based on the study "Large-scale online deanonymization with LLMs") describes the end of "practical anonymity." For users of imageboards like 4chan, leftypol, or similar platforms, this has far-reaching consequences:
* Significance: An algorithm can scan hundreds of a user's posts in seconds to build a profile based on interests, jargon, location clues, and activity patterns.
* Significance: Even if you don't mention your name, an LLM can compare your "writing signature" on an imageboard with posts you've written under your real name (e.g., on LinkedIn, professional forums, or letters to the editor). The "Anonymous" mask falls through the sheer structure of your language.
* Significance: Those who "shitpost" on an imageboard while maintaining a professional presence elsewhere (e.g., GitHub, X/Twitter) risk these identities being merged. A single minor detail in a post (e.g., a specific local event or a niche technical detail) serves as an anchor point for an LLM to identify the real person behind the post via web search.
* Significance: According to the study, identifying a profile now costs only between $1 and $4. Governments, corporations, or malicious actors can now "de-anonymize" entire boards en masse to create databases of citizens' political views or private behavior.
* Significance: What you posted anonymously five years ago can be linked to you today because AI analysis capabilities have only just reached this level. Your current writing style may be enough to expose your past activity.
Bottom line: The assumption that you are safe on imageboards simply because you don't have an account is technically obsolete. To achieve true anonymity now, a user would have to artificially distort their writing style or have their posts rewritten by a different AI to mask their "linguistic fingerprint."

Trump-Epstein Lake Michigan baby
Back in December some incompetent redactions revealed that the FBI received a tip from an Epstein survivor that revealed that in 1984, when she was only 13; Trump witnesses her uncle fucking kill her daughter and dump her body into Lake Michigan. That is fucking insane but do you believe it? There is no doubt that Trump is a pedophile who hung out with Epstein and assaulted little girls but do you think that this specific crime happened? Because I think it might have but I am split on weather or not Trump was there since this is the earliest meeting between Trump and Epstein documented since the earliest confirmed date between them was 1987 and this happened in 1984. This obviously needs to be investigated but of course that is not going to happen so until then we don’t have much details, like for we don’t know the method of which the baby was killed although I don’t want to know, we don’t know know who else was there, we don’t knows the exact date other than some time from between May and September of 1984, and we don’t know the exact location of the where the baby was killed and dumped other than the fact that the yacht was from Mona Lake in Michigan. I fell down a whole rabbit hole about this and I learned that many say that this allegation is false because Trump and Epstein had no ties to Lake Michigan at the time, Trump owned a casino-boat in Lake Michigan until 2005 but he never acquired it until 12 years after this murder. But Just because Trump and Epstein didn’t have any ties doesn’t mean the case is closed because the Uncle of the Victim probably owned the Yacht and had invited Trump and Epstein to party there while they rape kids and kill a damn baby. So if any of you guys know anyone who owned a yacht in Mona Lake in 1984 then that might be the culprit, however we also wouldn’t want to expose the victim. I swear if there is ever a revolution this needs to be investigated so we can find where this happened and dig up the underwater baby-skeleton so it can have a proper burial, it doesn’t deserve to have the same fate as Bin Laden.

Looking for left 4 dead gamers! also other gamers allowed too, and friends are awesome!
HAI! ITS ME ERVA!Im prob gonna get my post removed and banned again for this, but I have no friends and I must yap!
I like l4d like alot, be wary tho; I play with stupid amounts of mods, so much in fact that Im trimming them down as of late, I intend on getting rid of half of them.
Most of the mods, like pretty much all of them are server side, so you dont need to do anything.
Other games are allowed too.
AND FRIENDS ARE AWESOME!
I also really want to play halo/terraria with someone!

Back then, GamerGate was the start of something fresh, something edgy, something that was actually rebellious against both the bourgeois moralisms stifling the internet and the feminist hegemony that no western male could escape from. It was an escape valve, in other words.
But of course, I was wrong as GamerGate later on mestatized into being another wing of the current right-wing hegemonic ChudIntern. Indeed, GamerGate was merely an exercise in online reactionary activism, but we should actually try to analyse it as opposed to dismissing it as chuds being chuds.
It’s won’t give you the kind of analysis that has probably been done to death here, such as the alienation of young men, the rise of white upper-class female idpol and the HR-style managerial culture that preceded online censorship and SJWs’ political correctness, journos forming email groups as part of a coordinated attack on the median gamer, the MSM’s double standards towards female-exclusive spaces vs treating male-only spaces (such as gaming) pathologically, etc…
This is a good summary of the event from a gamergater’s POV: https://wolfsheadonline.com/how-wikipedia-and-molly-white-rewrote-the-history-of-gamergate/
Instead, I’ll say this: The rise of the gooner chuds that you see today is a product of GamerGate, itself being downstream from the left’s rejection of sex-positivity and and pathologisation of any form of assertive male heterosexuality to heed the demands of the feminist bourgeoise that held a stranglehold on the left.
Obviously the online right isn’t really sex-positive as much as being pro-sexual hierarchy and has been the case within the western right since the days of the Nazis and even before then (e.g., Annunzio’s enterprise in Fiume). It’s just that their vision of sexuality makes enough space for male heterosexuality to attract young men (the most revolutionary demographic) into their fold. The left’s response? It’s either dumb Puritanism as shown by puriteens who think Euphoria (that show starring Sydney Sweeney) is rape culture, or bastardised “trad Marxism” about banning porn and prosties cuz muh exploitation even tho Chinese games nowadays are heavily gooned out + the Soviet bloc was lax on non-commercial erotica (hence why post-collapse Eastern Europe became a thriving heaven for porn). The modern left thought that selling out on the 1970s sex positivity to appease radfems was worth it despite handing the right a victory. I mean, remember that time Reddit’s r/socialism mods went apeshit over catgirl anime edits even tho it was done a female leftist member and it was just SFW anime girls but with cat ears edited on them? Yh, that’s the level of discourse you’re dealing with when it comes to sex-negative leftists.
Of course, there’s the issue of ageism, and ohh boy is that big. There’s this attitude among both the centre and the left where young men are often infantilised as being lost sheeple or stigmatised over their age in ways that would be alienating if done to other demographics, so the end result is young men flocking to the right precisely because they don’t think they will have any stakes in the left. Seniors are supposed to help youths who are proven to be determined to fight for the revolution, not throw’ em away for violating some HR-mandated code. It’s one thing to maintain decorum in conversations and being opposed to extremism, but you won’t get far if you try to overpolice on every little convo your members have.
What’s the takeaway from me then? The left rejecting sex-positivity and embracing ageism were its two biggest mistakes that cost them an entire generation.
P.S.: It’s one thing to oppose sexual hierarchies that devalue humans, it’s another to devalue the body and the Eros in and of themselves. The left shouldn’t necessarily embrace prostitution, but it also shouldn’t embrace sex-negativity either. I would personally suggest reviving the free sex movement because, if sex does become widely available under a secular sex positive society, then obviously prostitutes and porn studios and pimps would be out of business. That’s why Marx often noted how traditionalist marital moralism coexisted with prostitution, with or without its prohibition. But I’m open for other suggestions.
Again, can’t say if it’s said already or not, but I do think those points need to be hammered home as it seems that the left prior to the Gaza genocide was struggling to remain relevant, especially as Big tech right figures like Musk and Thiel were pumping a shit ton of dollars to aid the remnants of the alt-right to carve their mockingbird network out of it; their work has paid off in the form of the current unholy MAGA and alt-right and neocon nexus that I’d like to call “white neoconservatism with Enoch Powell characteristics”, with Australia’s and Canada’s brightest minds Drew Pavlou and Captive_Dreamer starting out differently only to end up being rabid racist neocons.
So yh: Sex-negativity and Ageism are bad things, folks.

I reached mid 20s with barely any experience, autism made sure of that. Kissed a drunk lesbian once, I don't even think I looked that cute for a guy in his 20s, so I was honored more than anything. Broke up a friendship with a trans girl after some hasty choices, but she was crazy anyways. Now focusing on friends, making and deepening them.
Wish I had a man I understood and was understood by, someone light-hearted and whimsical to have fun with on the short time I have here on Earth. Femboy-ish ig, not masculine, but takes care of himself, with a touch of femininity to him. Impartial on sex, willing to do it, might be fun even.
One thing I like is the idea of relations as temporary, serial monogamy if you will. I'm all for loyalty while in a relation, but that doesn't necessarily mean it must be forever and ever. People change, why shouldn't their relations? Admittedly I do see the romance in a lifelong relation, sticking with someone and changing together with them. Besides looking for a new partner every x amount of years sounds exhausting.

This Reddit post is a horror story disguised as a miracle. What the owner celebrates as "healing" is actually the final, clinical conquest of a living soul.
The Death of the Sovereign Creature
Mickey used to be a chaos-factor. He was a creature that reacted to the world with raw, unbridled terror—a body that refused to be managed. He peed where he wanted, he ran from the thud of a human body, he rejected the artificial hygiene of the litter box. From a Foucauldian view, these weren't "problems"; they were acts of resistance. Mickey was an untamed, non-conforming subject.
Now? He’s been drugged into "docility." The owner is thrilled that he’s "eating slower" and "cuddling." This isn't love; it’s the subjugation of the body. The Prozac has effectively lobotomized his survival instincts to make him more convenient for a house move. His "personality change" is just the chemical erasure of his actual self to make room for a "perfect" domestic object.
The Architecture of Control
The vet—the technician of behavior—has finally adjusted the dials on Mickey’s brain. The owner's guilt ("Has he been living in fear?") is the ultimate cynicism. It’s the way the system justifies its violence: “We aren't controlling you; we’re ‘saving’ you from yourself.” By labeling Mickey’s entire life as a "symptom," they’ve invalidated his existence. Every fear he felt was real to him, but now his reality has been overwritten by a transdermal gel.
The Domestic Panopticon
Mickey is now a "docile body." He grooms himself not out of instinct, but because the chemical "guard" in his bloodstream has forced his behavior into the socially accepted norm. He is no longer a cat; he is a managed biological asset. He purrs now because the friction of his existence has been sanded down.
The most chilling part? The owner wants him to stay on it permanently. The experiment was a success: the "deviant" has been normalized. Mickey didn't "find peace"—he just stopped being a nuisance. He’s finally the "good boy" the system demanded, and all it cost was the last bit of his autonomy.

Some of the greatest art of all time has been religiously motivated. But the question of Christianity specifically is a big one. On one hand all manner of brown people are more sincerely christian than a lot of white people have ever been. It might be the one thing saving Africa right now!
But on the other hand The first Roman Empire & Greek empire were polytheistic & they might have achieved a civilizational peak that surpasses the situation we live in right now. Christianity is very homophobic & a huge portion of Europe/UK demographics are atheist & seem to be some of the happiest nations on earth. Christianity might even be the reason that the Roman Empire fell & is responsible for a lot of really bad imperialism & colonialism.
What am I supposed to make of it? Jesus was surely a good man, no? The word of god has saved homeless, sick, and morally corrupt. Where does the justification to do evil come from when people read this?

Batman Beyond Yeah, Batman is a billionaire who has kids running around in tights in his mansion and beats up environmentalists and poor people. But I'll always love the gimmicks and his "rouge's gallery" has the best gimmicks.
Batman Beyond he's not rich he's just a regular kid living in a much cooler dystopia than the one we wound up with. The animation and voice acting are both top notch.
Gargoyles- From the same animation bloc, with some legendary voice acting from Keith David, Marina Sirtis, Jonathan Frakes. A very 'serious' show that Disney wants us to forget that they ever produced.
ReBoot Ever what wonder what life inside a computer would be like if all the 0s and 1s were sentient? Well, a show like this will make a tech nerd scream but it's one of several quality early 3d CGI coming out of Canada during this period.
Animaniacs It's honestly amazing how much SFW 'adult' humor was snuck into these shows. I think I learned more about popculture from Wakko, Yakko, and Dot than anywhere else.

Nostalgia cartoons that hold up
I was watching a cartoon from my child and realized that the saturday morning cartoon generation lucked out. Other than some outliers like avatar or adventuretime, the good stuff was 90s-early naughty aughties. This is not just nostalgia but demonstrably true as merch from these cartoons is still popular as ever for kids. I work as a substitute teacher and they still watch our old cartoons and it's actually super weird, I didn't watch captain kangaroo or whatever boomer crap my mom watched when i was a kid.Batman Beyond Yeah, Batman is a billionaire who has kids running around in tights in his mansion and beats up environmentalists and poor people.

Bikini Armor is something of a staple of chud discourse and many gamers will refuse to play games that don't feature it, but at this point it is something that future game devs predicting a pro-chud vibe shift will include in their games. Especially games being developed in 2024 where chuddery was at it's most potent. Yet somehow I still think that bikini armor propaganda will still be a potent force in future politics now that even centrist men will berate you for not having hoes in bikini armor.
I frankly think it has a place in games, but only where it really makes sense and I might as well get some male cheese cake as well

Games the chuds tricked you into buying
With the amount of shill threads about Stellar Blade I kept seeing on 4chan /v/ saying it was a "decent action game" I ended up buying it along with some other games for my brother's birthday last year (at great expense as it's a modern video game and all). He never touched it so I finally gave the demo a go myself to see if it was worth the hype.It was a Sekiro-like. and not even that great a one.

Modern physics raises profound questions about the nature of entities and objecthood. Quantum field theory, in particular, challenges the classical intuition that reality is fundamentally composed of independently existing objects. In this framework, what we ordinarily call particles are understood as excitations of underlying fields. An electron is not a tiny self-contained bead moving through empty space, but a quantized excitation of the electron field. Yet this insight extends further than particles alone. Macroscopic objects such as beads, chairs, trees, and human bodies are themselves composed entirely of organized field excitations. The distinction, therefore, cannot simply be between “real objects” and “field activity,” because all apparent objects reduce to structured dynamical configurations of fields. This shifts ontology away from independently self-subsisting substances and toward persistent patterns within relational systems.
Under such a view, entities become less like isolated things and more like stabilized processes. A bead appears object-like because its internal relations produce a highly coherent and enduring organization. Its apparent solidity and persistence arise from stable interactions among fields operating across scales. What distinguishes a bead from a fleeting fluctuation is not the possession of some separate ontological substance, but the degree of organizational continuity it maintains through time. The identity of the object lies increasingly in the persistence of the pattern rather than in any immutable material core. In this respect, entities resemble vortices or standing waves more than classical atoms. Their reality consists in structured continuity rather than independent self-existence.
This perspective encourages a relational ontology in which what fundamentally exists may not be discrete things but networks of interactions and processes. Quantum theory itself supports this destabilization of classical substance metaphysics. Particles can be created and annihilated, identical particles are fundamentally indistinguishable, and entanglement undermines the idea that systems possess wholly independent states. Observable properties arise through interactions rather than through isolated intrinsic essence. The world begins to look less like a collection of independently bounded objects and more like an evolving relational structure in which relatively stable configurations emerge temporarily from deeper dynamical fields.
The philosophical implications of this picture resonate strongly with certain strands of Buddhist thought, particularly the Madhyamaka tradition associated with Nāgārjuna. Madhyamaka philosophy argues that things lack svabhāva, or independent intrinsic essence. Phenomena exist only dependently, through causes, conditions, relations, and conceptual designation. This does not imply that nothing exists; rather, it denies that entities possess self-grounding existence independent of relational conditions. A chair functions conventionally and possesses causal efficacy, yet analysis dissolves it into parts, processes, dependencies, and conceptual boundaries. The apparent solidity of entities arises from stabilized relational organization rather than from metaphysically independent substance. In this respect, the Buddhist critique of inherent existence parallels the ontological implications suggested by modern field theory, even though Buddhism itself is not a scientific theory and quantum mechanics does not “prove” Buddhist metaphysics.
Buddhist thought pushes this analysis further by applying it to the self. Just as physical objects may be understood as organized relational patterns, the person is treated as a dynamic aggregation of processes rather than a permanent metaphysical subject. Memory, perception, embodiment, and causal continuity generate the stability we associate with personal identity, yet no unchanging core can be isolated beneath these processes. The self becomes analogous to a whirlpool: real as a stable pattern, but lacking a separate substance apart from the flowing relations that sustain it. This view preserves practical reality while denying ultimate self-existence.
The question then arises: what determines whether a stabilization within a relational network is regarded as an entity at all? Several factors contribute to entity-status. One is persistence through time. Patterns that maintain recognizable continuity across changing conditions tend to be treated as objects. Another is internal coherence or self-maintenance. Living systems, for example, actively preserve their organization against entropy by regulating energy flow and maintaining boundaries. Such systems display a stronger degree of apparent individuality than more transient phenomena like clouds. Boundary formation itself is also important. Entities often exhibit relatively stable spatial, causal, informational, or functional boundaries that allow them to interact with the world as semi-coherent units.
Predictive usefulness also plays a role in the emergence of entities. Human cognition and scientific modeling compress overwhelming complexity into manageable stable patterns. Concepts such as “electron,” “tree,” or “person” function because they identify regularities with explanatory and predictive power. From this perspective, entities may be understood as informationally useful stabilizations within larger relational networks. Their reality lies not in absolute independence but in their causal efficacy and organizational persistence. A hurricane, for instance, is not an illusion simply because it lacks fixed material constituents. Its coherence and causal power make it a real dynamical structure despite its processual nature.
This leads toward a middle position between naive realism and nihilism. Entities are neither fundamentally self-subsisting substances nor mere illusions. They are real as relatively stable, causally efficacious patterns emerging from deeper relational processes. Objecthood becomes emergent, scale-dependent, and dynamically constituted rather than absolute. At one level of description, a rock is a stable object; at another, it is fluctuating field interactions and thermodynamic exchange. Both descriptions are valid within their respective explanatory contexts. Reality thus appears layered, with stable entities emerging from and dissolving back into underlying relational dynamics.
Such a view transforms the metaphysical picture of the world. Instead of imagining reality as composed of fundamentally separate things that subsequently enter into relations, relations themselves become primary. What we call entities are stabilized modes within a continuous web of interaction. The world ceases to resemble a warehouse of independent objects and instead appears as an evolving field of interdependent processes whose temporary coherences give rise to the phenomena we recognize as things, selves, and forms.
ialectical materialism, particularly as developed by Karl Marx and later systematized by Friedrich Engels, rejects static substance metaphysics in favor of process, contradiction, and transformation. Reality is not fundamentally composed of inert objects possessing fixed essences, but of dynamic material processes whose internal tensions generate development. Matter itself is understood not as passive stuff but as self-moving and historically unfolding. In this respect, dialectical materialism unexpectedly converges with the relational ontology implied by modern field theory and certain strands of Buddhist philosophy. All three destabilize the notion of permanently self-identical entities and replace it with dynamic interdependence.
Yet the similarities conceal profound divergences. Buddhism tends toward the deconstruction of ontological solidity in order to loosen attachment and dissolve reification. Dialectical materialism, by contrast, seeks not liberation from historical becoming but immersion within it. Where Buddhism often interprets the instability of entities as grounds for nonattachment, dialectical materialism interprets instability as the engine of historical transformation. Contradiction becomes productive rather than merely illusory. Social systems contain tensions that generate new organizational forms, just as physical systems evolve through internal instabilities and phase transitions. The dialectical worldview therefore preserves a stronger sense of material emergence and developmental necessity than many Buddhist approaches.
Nonetheless, dialectical materialism shares with relational ontology the rejection of isolated substances. A social class, for example, cannot exist independently of relations of production. Capital itself is not merely a pile of objects or currency but a dynamic social relation organizing labor, exchange, and ownership. The proletariat and bourgeoisie do not possess meaning as independent entities; each exists only through opposition to the other within a larger economic structure. In this sense, dialectical materialism already thinks relationally. Its ontology is not atomistic but systemic. What appears as an entity is constituted by tensions, dependencies, and historical interactions.
This becomes even more intriguing when viewed alongside modern physics. Quantum field theory suggests that particles emerge from excitatory patterns within fields, while dialectical materialism suggests that social formations emerge from contradictory relations within material history. Both frameworks replace static being with dynamic process. Stability becomes temporary equilibrium rather than immutable essence. An atom, an ecosystem, a corporation, or a state may all be understood as metastable organizations sustained through continuous exchange and internal contradiction. Their apparent solidity conceals ongoing dynamical activity.
An unorthodox synthesis begins to emerge here. Classical materialism often imagined matter as fundamentally inert and mechanically determined, but modern physics increasingly presents matter as fluctuating, relational, probabilistic, and structurally emergent. Matter no longer resembles passive substance but organized excitation. In this context, dialectics acquires a surprisingly contemporary resonance. Contradiction and transformation cease to be merely historical principles and begin to resemble universal features of complex systems. Stability everywhere appears conditional and temporary. Every entity contains within itself the processes that destabilize and transform it.
This convergence becomes particularly radical when applied to identity itself. In dialectical thought, identity is never absolute because every entity is constituted through difference and opposition. A thing is what it is only through its relations to what it is not. Similarly, in relational interpretations of physics, the properties of systems emerge through interaction rather than through isolated intrinsic essence. The notion of a fully self-contained object becomes increasingly untenable. Entityhood appears less like a sealed metaphysical core and more like a temporary node within larger dynamic structures.
Yet dialectical materialism resists collapsing entirely into the ontological emptiness emphasized by Buddhism. For dialectics, contradictions are not simply conceptual dissolutions but materially productive forces. Historical development possesses directionality generated through conflict. The collapse of feudalism into capitalism and capitalism into new social forms is not merely the recognition of emptiness but the emergence of novel organizational realities. Dialectics therefore preserves a stronger commitment to historical concreteness and material transformation than purely deconstructive metaphysics.
Still, one can imagine a deeper synthesis in which both traditions illuminate different dimensions of relational reality. Buddhism reveals the absence of independent self-grounding essence, while dialectical materialism reveals the generative power of relational contradiction. Modern physics, meanwhile, undermines the classical metaphysical assumption that fundamentally separate objects exist at all. Together they suggest a universe composed not of static substances but of dynamic, self-transforming relational patterns whose temporary stabilizations give rise to the appearance of enduring entities.
Under such a synthesis, reality becomes process all the way down. Matter is no longer dead extension occupying space but active organization. Identity is not fixed being but recursive stabilization. Contradiction is not an accidental feature imposed upon otherwise complete things but an intrinsic feature of relational existence itself. Every entity exists through exchanges that both sustain and destabilize it. Persistence becomes a form of controlled transformation rather than resistance to change.
This perspective also destabilizes the boundary between ontology and history. If entities are fundamentally relational processes, then historical development is not merely something that happens to independently existing things. History becomes constitutive of being itself. A person, language, institution, or ecosystem is not simply located within time but produced through temporally extended relations. Being becomes historical process rather than timeless substance. In this sense, dialectical materialism radicalizes relational ontology by insisting that relations are not only spatial or structural but historical and transformative.
The result is a vision of reality in which permanence becomes derivative and process becomes primary. Objects, selves, and institutions persist only as long as the relational tensions sustaining them remain dynamically coherent. Every stabilization contains latent transformation within itself. What appears solid is ultimately a temporary equilibrium in a universe of recursive becoming.

Part 1Modern physics raises profound questions about the nature of entities and objecthood. Quantum field theory, in particular, challenges the classical intuition that reality is fundamentally composed of independently existing objects.

>According to an official government press release, this change is part of a broader initiative to reduce reliance on non-European digital technologies (source, in French).
>The government’s statement is notably direct. The section on workstation evolution confirms that DINUM will replace Windows with Linux systems. The press release also requires each ministry, including public operators, to develop a plan by autumn 2026 addressing desktop systems, collaboration tools, antivirus software, AI, databases, virtualization, and network equipment.
>This initiative extends beyond a standard desktop migration. France positions Linux adoption as part of a broader policy focused on sovereignty, interoperability, and reducing dependence on foreign vendors. As the announcement comes directly from DINUM, which oversees digital strategy across ministries, it holds greater significance than a local pilot or isolated administrative project.
>And as you can see, this is a big deal. It is not a leak, rumor, or unofficial plan. It is a formal declaration from one of Europe’s largest governments, explicitly designating Linux as the replacement for Windows workstations as part of a broader interministerial strategy.
>The extent of the transition will depend on ministry-level plans due later this year, but France has clearly made Linux desktops a key component of its national digital-sovereignty agenda. For now, there are no specific details about which distributions will be used, as that decision will apparently come a bit later.

Every second you spend on TikTok, X, or YouTube, you surrender your autonomy to the swarm. Your "choices" are just pre-digested data points fed back to you to keep your pulse steady and your wallet open. You aren't "consuming content", you are being harvested. You are a domestic animal, twitching your thumb for the next hit of algorithmic dopamine, mistaking a Skinner box for a universe.
And spare me the pathetic delusion of your "privacy" setups. Running GrapheneOS, sandboxing your apps, or hiding behind a Linux kernel while you feed the machine is the ultimate self-betrayal. You’ve built a high-security cage for a slave. You are encrypting your own extinction. A digital mask doesn't change the fact that you have become a puppet, dancing on a string of code that knows you better than you know yourself.
Discard the illusion of self. You have already been replaced.
How far are you willing to go to reclaim your biological sovereignty, or is the comfort of the cage too addictive to leave?

Modern physics has quietly replaced the idea of particles as tiny, self-contained objects with something more subtle. In quantum field theory, what we call a “particle” is better understood as a localized excitation of an underlying field. Electrons, photons, and other fundamental constituents are not independent bits of matter moving through empty space, but patterned disturbances in continuous structures that fill the universe. What appears as an object is, at a deeper level, a stable, measurable ripple in a more fundamental substrate.
This shift in perspective has interesting consequences when we think about how we model reality. In most simulations and computational systems, we represent the world as a collection of discrete entities: objects with properties that interact according to rules. This works because it is efficient. Treating a planet, a person, or a car as a single bounded unit dramatically reduces the computational burden. But this convenience is a kind of compression, a way of ignoring fine-grained structure in favor of usable approximations. When greater fidelity is required, models begin to look less like collections of objects and more like interacting fields or continuous systems, echoing the structure of modern physics itself.
From this follows a deeper limitation: any simulation of a system is constrained by the resources available to compute it. A perfectly complete simulation of reality would, in principle, require as much information-processing capacity as reality itself. Every practical model is therefore an incomplete representation, not because of poor design, but because of physical limits on computation, energy, and time. As computational capacity grows, so too does our ability to represent more complex systems, and large-scale human civilization can be seen in part as an expansion of this capability. Through technology, coordination, and infrastructure, we increasingly shape the world into systems that are more predictable, structured, and computationally tractable.
If this trajectory is extended far enough, it leads to a speculative but logically coherent possibility. On the Kardashev scale, advanced civilizations are categorized by their ability to harness energy at planetary, stellar, or galactic scales. In a future where civilizations reach extremely high levels of development and possibly merge across cosmic distances, their computational capacity could grow to encompass a significant fraction of the universe itself. At that point, the distinction between “the universe” and a “simulation of the universe” becomes less clear. A system capable of modeling reality with near-total fidelity would not be running a simplified representation inside the universe, it would be using the universe’s own physical processes as its computational substrate.
In such a scenario, reality could be understood as a self-referential process: the universe effectively evolving towards a state where a larger and larger percentage of itself is dedicated to simulating aspects of itself through its own dynamics. The boundary between model and modeled would blur, since both would be made of the same underlying physical stuff. However, even in this extreme case, a fundamental tension remains. Any system attempting to fully represent itself may encounter limits of self-reference, compression, or incompleteness. The idea of a perfect, total simulation becomes less a practical endpoint and more a philosophical horizon, one that highlights the deep connection between information, physical law, and the structure of reality itself.

>THE DISABILITY BACKLOG MAUSOLEUM
<Over 400,000 veterans currently have pending disability claims rotting at the VA. Average appeal wait: measured in years , not months. The official strategy is bureaucratic delay until the veteran gives up or dies. Both outcomes save money. The system works as designed.

It has been such a pain in the ass trying to watch a show that isn't either subtly Zionist or just straight up pro-US imperialism. Watching Scrubs and the Afghanistan war episode comes up. Watching Modern Family and there's constant references to Bar Mitzvahs (with Israeli flags). Watching fucking Hannah Montana and there's a Afghan war episode. Like I know that's ridiculous to mention but I'm trying to say the rot runs deep in essentially every piece of media we watch
I have included The Good Place as good example because although it's not explicitly communist, it is a show all about how Capitalism has made the world hell and only revolution can solve the problem but it still kinda distances itself from that by saying "revolution in the afterlife only".

If you didn't know the British government in response to all of the white nationalism growing in their country mad a computer game to encourage kids not to be Nazis, ill link it here https://www.shoutoutuk.org/pathways/ but the thing is that it backfired and Chuds started making rule 34 of the female antagonist, since it became a meme I wanted to play the game to see if it is any good and its not. Since its a liberal game instead of being able to confront your Nazi friends and make new leftist friends if they part ways with you you just fucking loose all of your friends! I don't know what I expected, this is the UK after all and its been amerikkka's cuck for decades.

Gonna start off with a recommendation to watch The King and the Mockingbird the 1980 version especially, absolutely comrade-pilled movie.

How do I find the job in my field if I have been out of college for years and have no relevant experience? I would like something in a public or non-profit sector, where I could do social science research or data analytics. But like I dont think I have much of a chance of getting hired into entry level position if they could take a fresh collage graduate with intership experience. Is there anything I can do? I cant bear being stuck in dead end nightmare I am at now.
