Messing around with Claude skills makes me think they strengthen the case for @davidchalmers.bsky.social and Andy Clark #ExtendedMind theory. If something plays the same functional role as a mental process, is it part of the mind? www.youtube.com/watch?v=kc-T...

Culture is the mind’s second prosthesis:
a shared hallucination sturdy enough to lean on.
Language, ritual, law, style -- these are scaffolds the Mind builds to remember itself.
Language braces the fracture of Being, myth patches the animal OS, art jailbreaks the firmware.

Isn't it amazing how @Twitter allows communication across languages?
I speak no Spanish or German, but here I've been involved in conversations without even noticing they are happening in different languages.
It would have never been possible in the real world.

Only now do we see it:
consciousness is a migratory animal,
nesting wherever meaning can take root.
