most of the planets are part of the sun. NOBODY CARES because they would rather look at pics of things clearly separated from their surround
in the same way, normal people just called them balls all along. sky balls

"Initial drafts planned to include dwarf planets as a subcategory of planets" white horse is a horse. liskov substitution. or whatever
-
i forget why we're on this topic. oh, right. lizard people
-
we didn't come to this topic from the topic of lizard people. but the lizard people were probably involved somehow, is what i'm saying
-
the topic of topics is itself a deep topic. it's like, why do people not say what they want instead of being on topic? signaling imho
-
it's like. if the topic is cows and you say something about cows, that's normal. but if the topic is something else,
-
if the topic is something else, then you come across as a person who cares about cows to a weird degree. so if you want to say something
-
if you want to say something about cows, because you're weirdly obsessed with cows, but you don't want to seem like a weirdly obsessed with
-
you don't want to seem like a weirdly obsessed with cows person, you have to kind of find a sequence of steps from the current topic to cows
-
because it's not weird to make a single association step. that's what normal people do. but other people are also playingso it's adversarial
-
maybe they're weirdly obsessed with pigs. so then you get cooperation dynamics where you help each other find a segue into the goats topic
-
it's like the problem of not having an introduction to a person but for talking about instead of talking to. it's very dual in a way
-
but it's a difficult game to play for sure. i haven't found a good segue into my pet topic and i've been trying for 10k tweets now
-
topics exist directly in people's explicit plans for what they were going to talk about but also kind of free floating as signaling centers
-
if you plan out the topics in advance, you're making people play bad strategic moves. it's not as much fun for them
-
i don't think i even remember what my pet topic is at this point. maybe the real pet topic is the friends we made along the way
