I stood in the middle of the living room holding a hose and I thought: I have owned vacuums my entire adult life and I have never once used a vacuum. This is an essay about entropy, I think.
I’ve been working on a framework that treats 'reality' not as a metaphysical constant, but as a coordination problem. The core argument is that shared noetic certainty—what we collectively take for granted—acts as a physical constraint on systems, from biological responses (the placebo effect) to social stability. It draws on Wittgenstein and Husserl to argue that when we cannot agree on the basic phenomenology of an event (due to deepfakes or epistemic fracture), the 'laws ofreality' themselves degrade. Felt like y'all might enjoy it.
I have an old iPhone SE. It is small enough that I don't even notice it in my pocket. It does everything I want it to do very well and is actually very responsive.
Also it is about $60 bucks on ebay. I have no compelling reason to switch.
The fucking problem is now that everyone has an SUV, driving something of a normal size makes you feel like you're going to get crushed to death in an accident.
