You want real-ass harry potter magic? ADHD/Sperg/Autist is the gateway. I think that this is missing from the alternative. Like you have an itty bitty piece of 3d matter embedded in your 2d, flatland-living, flatland-society self.

Like you’re in a slasher but pretend you’re in a hallmark.

I relate. I sound like a genius in writing, relatively speaking. I guess it’s not uncommon.

Who doesn’t like Lucy?

That is an opinion that I used to share. No more.

I have offered a dozen strange ideas here. Not difficult or complex, just strange. They are not received well.

Constraining your topic

A kind of politics-flavored smalltalk. Yes, that is the local dialect.

Believe it or not, I have discussed subjects that matter deeply to me in online forums. But lately it’s just fruitless fishing.

I think we have a thousand mob-squawks posing as niche communities. Different flavors, same conversations.

Completely open and popular forums are not entirely a good thing.

I just said that I don’t mean plainer language.

“Should” is arguable. (For example you might be fishing for the few in the crowd) .

But yes, your choice of topic. That’s what I’m talking about. Sometimes it looks pretty narrow.

And if you do. Well, that carries with it it’s own bucket of implications.

Not talking about simplified writing.

I am not talking about better communication. If I was then I would have said “use a clearer style of speaking” or something like that.

I am talking about limiting what you discuss to the popular and easily-digested.

No, it’s “please give me your candy” (with the implied threat). Vs “give me your candy or I’ll smash”.

(Also, I reworded the post because you people are so literal and easily distracted.)

Replace death with any heavy executive-issued penalty. The point here is the polite-implicit vs the impolite-explicit. (Ok i reworded it)

Just say no to rugs.

Secret Level.

You should say, “please reword to be an open ended question or I’m destroying your post”. Don’t make merely implicit threats. It’s spineless and our respect for you diminishes.

Lose the “please” too. It’s meaningless.

Most of us don’t know that you are the moderator or that your polite requests are actually demands backed by executive threat. Best to make it clear.

But are you willing to fake it? That’s what we’re asking. Are you willing to put your whole soul into faking it.

Everybody fakes it down here.

Firsthand experience is beyond words and super deep.

Convert to words. Consume words. Map words to your own experience.

It’s basically anime at that point.

Every time I eat a mcD cheeseburger I get a tummy ache. That shit is concrete.
