#anthills
one ant tells another ant of a "superintelligent ant" that can build anthills hundreds of times bigger than theirs, that can move faster and lift heavier rocks. the other ant says "but *why* would it want to kill us?". the next day, a bulldozer flattens their whole colony to build a highway.

Even when you try your fucking damnest to redeem yourself and be a good person, they will just make mountains out of anthills from your actions. Redemption doesn't exist in their eyes, you're just a disgusting degenerate sex criminal who needs to be put down no matter what.

Thinkin about this again 🫠

Just this;

"normal [where they're from over there, though they're f-off gigantic] guy fuckin around with anthills"

vibe applied to these rampage incursions in this cognitively dissonant way next to otherwise normalised relations.

Setting where giant/macro [G/M] rampages are the result of drunken/rowdy [G/M]s sneaking over human/micro [h/m] — G/M borders & trashing the place for the kicks. Treated as an incursion from below, petty vandalism from above.

But there are all sorts of places in the system for emergent qualities to emerge from.

I'm also someone who thinks that anthills and corporations have emergent cognition that is identifiably independent from any of the entities that form them.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness […]

ohhhh idk about that. I've also played through FF1 and 2 (the PS1 versions but the layouts are unchanged)

3 is pretty rough with the dungeons, especially the final one, but none of those hold a candle to Phantasy Star 2's anthills of dungeons

Still if you can handle FF3 then Grandia 1 will be fine

At some point, stomping on all the anthills was no longer enough for them 😔

4/ Driven from the northern parts of the Sahara, she and her caravan of followers, so the stories go, nearly perished in the wilderness until they stumbled upon grain in desert anthills. In other legends less corroborated, Tin Hinan has been referred to as a Muslim.

I don't know if my dick cares about the difference between my hand and a vagina but it definitely has an opinion on anthills

We keep on reinventing the wheel as a species in different parts of our small blue dot.

And that's allowed diffent anthills to be built so various people can secure their access to the pile of resources they're squatting on.

It's not physics but politics for the most part.

"Those who mismanage our affairs would silence our criticism by pretending they have facts not available to the rest of us. Our best weapon against them is not to marshal facts, of which they are truly managers, but passion. Passion is our hope and strength."

only diff between us and anthills is that we're writing pamphlets articulating our desires for universalism LMAO but we're still very much held back and pushed forward by the same forces in tension
