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.

Replying to @chaosprime
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.

Replying to @Alephwyr @chaosprime
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.1 reply 0 retweets 3 likes -
The more you constrain epistemology, the more you create dead or inaccessible branches in this sense. The far future is a bunch of scientists alone in a dying world everyone else has already exited.

What if entropy is just the result of iteratively modelling the world?

Look. Look at this symbol: 分 It's literally a sword in 8. It's a reference to the Kojiki, to the 8 headed dragon of chaos being killed by Susanoo. Look. It's chaos. It's recursion. Understanding is the recursive process of slaying chaos. But perfect order is inert

Relatedly, numerological psuedosciences like Kabbalah have unbounded grammatical recursion built into them. They are methods of generating infinite permutations, infinite circularity, infinite connection. Scientific language aspires to grammar that always terminates.
