dear future this,

I begin all journal entries with this simple opener (dear future me). just as a voice of familiarity. right now I’ve been scouring the interwebs seeking out new life + new civilizations. I spent a little while data mining Neocities. all I see are these sad, depressive types who managed to emulate the aesthetic of retro geocities pages. which only proves my point that people were little more than artless plagiarists with zero creativity + skill (much less originality).

I also sensed great hesitancy + fear, anxiety. of what? of self expression, of mockery, retaliation, or being cyber bullied by some retards that can scarcely read, write and probably work at some fast food nation purveyor of cholesterol rich ultra processed shit. thus they lacked the actual substance + soul to infuse these constructs with actual substance + soul. you can imitate, but you can’t replicate experience, emotions, or realities of strangers. there’s a deepening desire for us to be able to without reservation, condemnation, or hesitation. so few possessed the wherewithal, courage, and gusto to do so. the punishment overshadowed the some great reward. but this is what made cyberspace so kick ass back in the day of static mostly sites, blogger generated sites, and the like. nobody knew wtf this even was just yet, it was pure hobbyist gold. but it was that uncertainty, that spontaneous insanity that made it legend.

wherever we look we see these highly polished perfectionists trying to sell their version of fake perfection. if you subscribe to me you too can be just like me! is what they’re hard selling. you see it with all of these B$ youtube ads. the desperate who might be slightly attractive or charming peddling their cheap products, services, etc on you. hey I was once a loser like you now I’m a millionaire, with nothing better to do than sell you my secrets! if I were a millionaire I’d hire somebody to make these annoying youtube ad videos for me.

with the rise of AI, we might be seeing a purging + nullification of human generated content (we are). as youtube becomes innundated with AI shit videos the money grubbing retards out there clog the arteries of the net with. this is just the beginning. at some point, it might even be outlawed to write w/o AI to massage your own writing. at which case we will have an internet that controls not only content, but can manipulate data that you consume. you might just be voiceless even on anti-social media. how can you even know who you’re talking with isn’t anything but a AI training bot trying to disseminate + parse how you argue? you’re training an AI training bot how to assume your very identity. this is really a Borg assimilation of all of cyberspace. self expression might be reduced to merely selecting what you like or dislike in a bullet journal fashion (I hate bullet journaling btw). self expression will be a bunch of binary one liners nobody will give two shits + a hot far about. as the architects of AI will weaponize it against free speech, self expression, and the individualists who dares to live outside of their control constructs, manipulation algorithms, and other psyop thought weaponry. you will eventually be hard coded to comply, subjugated, and fork over whatever freedoms you now enjoy. you can issue a communique to the internet, and nobody will listen, care, understand, or respond. you’re a voiceless voice in the ether. you had a voice at one point but forked it over calmly, cooly, entirely w/o incident. well one day this will be you fighting for those things you took for granted:
