Things to say to DID Systems

1. It is important to check with the system you are speaking with to ensure you know who is fronting at any given moment in time. It would be annoying to refer to someone with the wrong name.

2. Asking if questions are okay is important because some system members might not be okay with interviews.

3. Littles must be treated like children because they *are* children.

4. If a System switches while you and the System are doing an activity then check to see if they would also like to switch activities. It might not be fun for a system member to get thrust into an activity suddenly and they also might not have any idea what is going on.

5. Check their comfort levels because what one system member might love might be intolerable for another or vice versa. Always check this to ensure that each system member is being treated properly and with respect.

6. If a system seems to be quiet for no reason and is staring off into the void then it is important to not interrupt or otherwise mess with them. They could just be having an internal unvoiced conversation that they don't feel like voicing and interrupting would be rude.

7. If you are unsure who is in command then keep compliments, questions, comments, whatever gender neutral because accidentally being misgendered isn't very fun for the system member.

I’ve been working on an Obsidian.md vault since November.

I redownloaded Mastadon. Going to talk about whatever random stuff is on my mind here again.

I've been thinking about how socialist people have been acting during the pandemic. It's been vaguely socialist. I've also been thinking about how a jaw of a human was found a while ago. This jaw was of a 40 year old male and only had one tooth. Evidence revealed that he managed to survive in that state for a while. It's likely that he had help. In a time when humans were at their most stupid humans were capable of assisting others. Perhaps it was because he was otherwise useful. Perhaps it was kindness. Either way, helping the less fortunate was something that existed.

For the majority of our existence as a species plagues and disasters were not something that happened sometimes. They were just part of life. If kindness existed in the darkest age of our history then there is no reason why it shouldn't exist now. Kindness isn't a problem to be solved. It is an asset that needs to be embraced.

Perhaps capitalism, the same capitalism that we have had for this short time now, isn't the answer. Maybe the familial communal way of life is the way we are meant to live. The way we evolved to live.

We are well within our rights as humans to try to build and be better as a species, to practice medicine and augmentation, to write our histories and our stories, but kindness is something that doesn't need to be cured. It's something that needs to be enhanced with all of our knowledge and our wisdom.

Some people seem to think that we are done evolving. I disagree. I think that we still have growth to get through. I think that ever since we picked up our first stone that we have been on the path to becoming gods.

We have been gathering the tools of our arsenal for ages. Fire, check. Electricity, check. The atom, partial check. When we master fusion we shall have the power of Lord Helios and we shall be unto gods.

Once we master fusion we shall be able to begin our mastery over space in earnest. Once we have the power of the sun in the palm of our hands we shall be akin to the heroes of old, able to rocket out into the sky, flames blazing behind us.

It is the divine mandate of humanity to expand and to grow. We must manifest our destiny into the stars and begin rebuilding the galaxy anew in our image. Then when we have that accomplished we shall proceed into the stars between the Way and Andromeda. Then Andromeda. We shall make the universe ours.

The problems in our way are immense but we must not hesitate. We must march forward. We must keep going.

Our expanding knowledge and wisdom shall set us free.

I rather enjoy how the internet is allowing humanity to become a networked intelligence on a much more voluntary basis. I find myself wondering if eventually it will reach a critical mass and we will become a series of hive minds.

I am thinking about brain/machine interfaces.

It occurs to me to make an #introduction . I joined earlier. I'm never sure how much information to put in these things. Feel free to ask whatever. Just note that I'll only take questions regarding my positions on subjects and will not answer questions regarding myself. I value my privacy very much. It's part of why I chose this instance.
