The Legendary Dragon Alephwyr, named Alephwyr, BA

My intuition is like a character in a late game metal gear solid instalment: trying to navigate a giant circular queue of weapons that I've acquired over time and mostly forgotten how to use or that I even had, but in real time, while enemies with one gun shoot me to death.

Relatedly, traditional Kung Fu has one or more techniques for every conceivable occasion, which are trained by practicing forms. Boxing has like, five techniques period, which are trained by going into actual combat armed with only five techniques for every possible situation.

In the long run, worldviews based on understanding and responding to bizarre edge cases and technicalities will probably lose out to worldviews based on responding to average cases so aggressively that the edge cases and technicalities are obliterated.

it is probably foolish to adapt oneself to what can be made to adapt itself to one we've had a long run of overreach that way, though, and a bit of a correction is due

Human beings are killers of the logic in the ontological. Eventually the world will be one amorphous blob just because that's the easiest thing to represent with a symbol.

shh, stop spoiling the end of Seeing Like a State

I read some sort of philosophy of science article that talked about this, but I can't find it now. Its main contention was about epistemology, but from a chaos magick perspective it's impossible not to view science as an accidental formula for omnicide along these lines.

Ah, I found what I was referencing by way of reference to reference to reference. "The Garden of Forking Paths". Think of it in a @gregeganSF'esque sense, where patterns of consciousness permit pathways of travel across heterogenous ontologies via metaphysics.
