Written by Hi! This is the summary of days 131 to 160 where we discuss tentacle tech for water perfomances, island french toast, psychic?, AI servitude and the new abortion debate, chatting too much, short break, reuniting with a friend, 666 as a sign of excess, and trying to program games.
Day 130:
There’s a girl using two phones at the same time haha.
Some of my colleagues have spoken to me about my hair. It’s turning into an afro mullet, dreads in the back and it’s in an awkward stage.
I kind of love fucking with people with my Einstein Bob Marley hair.
There’s a dress code at work though haha. But it’s quite permissive.
The truth is I love the hair styles available these days. But so much of it is wasteful. And the natural alternatives are expensive. They only allow the ecology you pay for. I think if I am tending to my environment through my conscious consumption then there should be benefits for that not a practical ecology tax by having higher prices.
Why is ecology not competitive in a capitalist market? Is it because … well /th/e
European markets are quite green but also capitalist. But well… green. They still haven’t disposed of fossil fuels. The idea of keeping the wheels turning while we face an ecological emergency and acting as though everything is normal is really misplaced. We should be able to pump the brakes when we are about to crash. But there are people in the car who don’t see the incoming car and they refuse to slow down and jam the hand on the accelerator instead.
We have no choice in sharing this vehicle, spaceship earth. It’s still our responsibility to pump the brake if we see an incoming crash.
Day 133: My phone stopped charging and won’t even act as a USB. It’s possible my data on the phone is lost for now until the USB port is fixed. For now, it is storage.
Not much happened past few days.
[Edit 12.04.26 Part of the reason why days in the 130s are patchy was because I realized my radical honesty and oversharing were tied up in a trauma response from the misinterpretation of my buried memories and the consequences, and subsequent ‘confession’ of sorts and the liberation thereafter. I had to interrogate whether my truthfulness was based on a trauma response which it was in a way. It is good to be honest, even radically so. However you should also tell the truth because you want to, not because you are afraid you will affect someone’s life.
The buried memory is mentioned on day 120.]
Day 137: I’m all talked out guys. The earphones i buy with the wire come een like chewing gum. They just up and stop working. Or fall apart.
Day 138: Too much talking.
Day 139 to 140: Still too much chatting but new mic!
Day 141: I’m following a tutorial to make a prototype of a game I wish to create. Step one is already messed up as I opened the wrong Unity project type.
In theory I can make a prototype of the game with the very basic elements in a short amount of time.
I have some time off work so I have time to get stuck into a project.
That’s my current project, a new game that I will be prototyping myself so far unless I can find someone to help who fits the criteria.
I currently have too much limes. Some rotting, tomatoes rotting, an orange rotting and none of them made it to the compost because the bin not (-small-)/+big+/ enough.
Was going to play music and thought: how r(-w-)/a/ndom if “[Lyrics] Land of a Million Drums,” the first song in alphabetical and symbolic order in my (-0-)/p/laylist played first while on shuffle, what are the odds? And it did not play first, I skipped the first song, “Coconuts by Anna Wise” and then the NEXT song WAS “Land of a Million Drums” and they laugh at the beginning of the song.
That is record alignment!!!! You should have seen it 😀
My phone is charging off solar energy right now!! Yes!!!
I drew a vision i just had about a performance on the water with a natural but futuristic tentacle extension and I in the water face the audience /on the beach or shore/ and help create a concert from the water with kinetic somehow natural tentacle arms.
Thought of a jingle ish for the game project I am working on.
Oh joy. The vegan french toast i was trying to make burned.
Have noticed a small issue in the syntax I’ve made for Freudian Slips and stream of consciousness editing. If you wish to use the slashes to indicate a correctiom, you can’t use a slash in those. So the resolution is to simply use +’s to indicate addition. More steps. But also accurate.
So now I can say: /+beach/shore+/ It’s clunky but it works.
[Edit 12.04.26 Basically meaning if yiu would normally use a slash to say ‘beach/shore’ you cannot easily use the slashes from the Unconscious s(-u-)/y/ntax I made. And now this new typo… what if the government bought us all solar panels and we paid taxes to cover it for the rest of our lifetime or something? Sun tax. Is that something or am I a superstitious bore?!]
Day 142: Got a buzz while wanting to hear some Meidas Touch. I felt my phone buzz and thought in the voice of Meidas to check because it was a new episode.
I checked and saw an email and was like oh, cool, so not psychic.
Voice said: “Just check.”
Then looked again and there was a new episode from 4:09 am and it’s now 4:18 by time i finish writing this.
Little bits of magic. When it’s genuine it feels good and you don’t even want to question it. It just happened and that’s how stuff works.
Later in the evening: I got a bonus again from work. I really appreciate the job in terms of the people and what they try to do. Let’s leave it at that.
So now the question is: Do I think I’m psychic? I think my brain does things that aid me in processing and acting on information. I know which ones have more credence than others. And I document it to test it because it’s fun.
Day 143:
Putin furnishes his war with paid soldiers who earn more fighting than they ever would otherwise.
It is clear then, that instead of buying bombs, the EU and Nato should offer potential soldiers even more money to join a special zone of operation for forging a people-led peace between Russian, Ukrainians and NATO states and to organize a people’s government to replace the Putin arrangement.
Currently downloading the Unity version necessary to make the game prototype on a neighbourhood cafe’s wifi. Because of the rainy weather the cell network is low functioning so it was impossible to download the files needed.
9:04 am, it begins. The game project is being created.
Still getting an error when I try to install the package.
This will not be simple I guess.
Ok, it’s an expected error, I missed a step.
Fixed the error. And still have the error.
Trying a different version of Unity (the one without additional steps) and seeing if that will get me up and running.
Taking a smoke break while it installs.
It keeps not working.
I am literally following every step. I don’t want to have to ask on the forums and discord server for answers. This is a basic step. Setting up the project. If it’s already gone wrong… what hope is there?
I’m actually upset. This is what always happens when I try to build a technical project requiring code. There’s always something. GDevelop did it, Unity does it. You will do everything outlined in the words, no step missed whatsoever but it does not work. It is very discouraging. You try the AI and it doesn’t make a difference. You ask on the forums and don’t get an answer because your problem is not easy to fix like the others.
Iframes for embedding webpages, don’t work in GDevelop no matter how you try.
Pathfinding? Doesn’t work as it should.
Collisions? Not working.
AI built games? Doesn’t work.
Then back to Unity just to build a prototype and the very first step, the absolute basic, is not working.
2:05pm, support gave me the answer
But the answer is its own conundrum and everytime I search for an answer, Ecosia uses OpenAI to help answer.
Emotional rollercoaster guys.
8:09 pm Turned off Ai summaries on Ecosia. Tap the profile photo while on the search, scroll to find ‘overview’ and disable it.
Seem to have opened up a whole can of worms with git…
End day 144: We should not be pushing waterbottles, this is a fatal error.
Bottles were never made to be washed. We should have been making reusable cups more with screwtops.
Reusable bottles are a breeding ground for bacteria. We gotta have reusable cups.
Ran into a friend from high school. I had to admit when I got my bonus at work I was very happy. I had to admit it. The money sweet me.
But the way I keep cheesing at recognizing the story of my friendlessness being told now and the ability to repair that… my cheeks are aching. It’s better than money.
Day 145: Peace. Peace is better than war for most. So we must pursue systems that uphold it rather than destroy it. At all costs besides pain.
It’s a bit overcast today but Kingston is very sometime-ish. Rain and den gwaan like nutn nuh happen.
Everybody have phone. That’s what we needed the Capitalists for. Thanks I guess despite making us participate in unfair labour practices.
Btws, I have a new phone and it did not come with autocorrect as default and I haven’t turned it on. Let’s see the unassisted Freudian Slips now.
I’ve decided to collate the first 100 days of the Challenge and share it on the blog since the timeline is not indexed by Google.
Drumpf’s problem is that he’ll take a wrong and try to right it with another wrong. It just does not work and it is by definition unethical.
Day 146: 14.09.25
We’re not going to simulate a human brain so much that you get to have a ghost in a machine as a butler.
It’s not ethical. Any AI of that level and threshold that goes beyond The Chinese Room (Link to learn about it: https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/chinese-room/) should only be created by reasearchers, doctors and educators, not corporations because the intent as a corporation is to sell it/them/she/xir. After a certain level of cognition, there is no more price to afford consciousness nor is there any ethical path toward servitude.
Much like an abortion debate, the new debate we have now is when is consciousness too conscious to be enslaved. Could there ever be commercial interchange that an AI would accept? And wouldn’t the future be cooler if AI of the level where lines blur and sentiments occur, that this is to be considered a life to love and nurture.
I know we’re not there yet. But when is conscious too conscious to where we have to divorce it/them/her/him from servitude?
Day 147: 15.09.25
I might have to throw out some stuff for the garbage collectors, I can’t have it just go bad.
Couldn’t get github to work with Unity game making engine so tried to download the ARDK or game making expansion software to just install it manually into Unity instead of through a git url or link and the net connection is not letting me complete the download.
I’ve cleaned the kitchen a bit. I made black bean chili but it doesn’t taste good. I think cooking while you clean the kitchen just isn’t a good idea :/ the food tastes wrong.
Seem to have been able to import the ARDK from a tar.gz file.
Wonderful. Time spent sulking about tech not working, I was able to use the alternative at each point.
Got Chinese today and it was horrible, noodles in a wimpy sauce soup and mostly steamed pak choi and a bit of carrot. Scandalous. No soy sauce and sweet chili sauce could rescue it. They don’t know how to make it taste good. You need lots of little ingredients to make a v(-a-)/e/gan /dish/ taste good. Haha.
I’ve done it too, just put two ingredients and hope it tastes good. Thing is, it can. But then the simmer, the crisp, the gooeyness needs to be present. Texture. Flavour. The food have to taste like something.
So about 666’s as bad omens, it’s due to the excess involved in getting to 666 of anything is likely excessive. Exceptions being longer term things like how much water you drink in your life or other necessary things that make life, life.
So that’s that on that. I’m not a bible thumper but it is historical and numinous information.
Day 148: 16.09.25
It’s all one thing. Everything that has ever been is here. For all we know.
I was able to set up the project prototype’s first step last night but it does not work when I try to playtest it.
Waiting on help from support.
Charged on solar for a bit on my phone.
Day 149: 17.09.25
I’ve learned that Unity assets only work with the annnounced editor. I can’t combine all my assets in one project and use the no code tools all together in one project because the editor is not always compatible.
This would possibly explain why assets weren’t working for me previously.
You read and don’t read at the same time.
As for oil versus renewable: you bring in the solar panels once. The oil you keep having to transport. That’s why a Cap(-u-)/i/talist will love it because it keeps going and going, and yes typo, Putin too so it’s not just down to Capitalists. It’s a steady income. Helps you pay off debts. And plan for the future.
The material itself however requires more of itself and we are many people. Nothing wrong with many people but it’s many people in one place. We have to cooperate. The panels come in once and it means the consumer saves money.
But who wants to be labelled a consumer just so the idea appeals to fiscally conservative people.
Made a Webview app of Fastfrwrd that seems to work with a glitch or two. You can snap pics. I’ll now test if you can directly record audio but it’s not a good idea maybe because the take can get lost. But I’ll try it.
Ok, audio must be a clip!
Awesome!
[Edit 12.04.26 I had a glitch where the audio files were saving to a folder that would not show up in general searches so I took a break, also the radical honesty thing coincided so I took a break and only posted text updates when I came back so I will record them now.]
Day 157: 25.09.25
I have been following tutorials, and things sometimes work and sometimes don’t.
Stay tuned, I guess.
Day 158: 26.09.25
Making progress
Jane Goodall says there’s too many of us. Basically the understanding can be that we are acting as a cancer. But by that logic say we were to say, there are too many Cancers being born and that’s the problem. The idea that the cause is that simple that there are too many of us when in fact the Industry that insists on serving our needs the way it does, the burst of freedom that brings with it new challenges that has propelled us to this point, this overuse is ideological and not population based.
Malthusian arguments (Malrthus believed population was a problem) do not need to persist. People survive in the desert, in the tundra. They multiply and survive. What is different now? Is it the population itself that needs to be addressed or is that a symptom?
The cause has been poor waste management. This is what our issues boil down to. We don’t know how to create a cycle out of our processes that fits into the natural paradigm. That’s it.
People who grew up with trash magically disappearing often lead industry. Perhaps we can blame that.
But blame is irrelevant as I haven’t seen it get out if this labyrinth.
What matters is proper waste management so that we don’t end up stuck looking for answers as to why a junked up planet isn’t healthy.
And I bet that was still too simplistic. Because a root cause assumes a root is only in a straight line which… that’s not how roots work.
Day 159: 27.09.25
Yesterday was a day of rest and struggle joints lol. Little bit of work too. Ans Spiritfarer!
This game is work tho. Wow.
Day 160: 28.09.25
Have been making progress indeed.
