I hope you enjoy that I’m going watch Hackers again for the first time in a long time. I hope it hasn’t aged too badly!

Magic me allllll the way!
I don’t have an answer for you other than, I don’t know why it hasn’t happened already.
Yesterday was the best time. Now IS the best time we have left. Later might be too late.
How can we as a group choose to suffer more than we already have? The majority of people have NOTHING if they don’t have a paycheck in the next 3 weeks. We starve and we die. And it’s not pretty.
The militias whose sole existence should be to combat the tyranny of government are the ones putting a boot on the necks of the people they should be marching into ICE held territory and saying this is not happening and I’m willing to fight for it.
That’s only in amerikkka though, which as long been the too big to fail state that has absolutely failed everyone.
That the epstein pedophile ring hasn’t been brought to clean and swift justice is a mockery of all that anyone has believed in as far as governments are willing to operate in anything resembling justice.
It’s fucking bleak. What can anyone do?

1·3 days agoAs a lover of science I find your recidivism ghoulish. Math rocks are magic. It’s insulting to think of modern science as magic as they requires me to turn off my brain and live as if I don’t have the answers to those things. But magic as the question asks is a force outside of nature. It is something that could benefit our greatest knowledge seekers. It is purely whimsy as the other person put it.
And I think you are trying to point out how amazing the things we take for granted are.
But I want to make something very clear. We do not have magic in this world. There is no divine being handing out miracles. There are no demons corrupting the world with dark forces.
We humans do these things, the divine and the demonic, that’s us. We can be amazing and we can be the worst thing that has ever been inflicted upon ourselves.
To borrow a thought, we do it to ourselves, we do, and that’s why it really hurts.
If you can’t understand what possibilities magic could do for us, what limitations we have with our math rocks, then I earnestly and whole heartedly implore you to open up your mind and dare to imagine.
It’s those who can imagine a world we don’t have that will give some of us the passion and the fascination to find out where our limitations can be pushed

2·3 days agoPlease clarify the details.
Is it reincarnated into a world without magic, retaining all of your knowledge just in a preindustrial revolution knowing and timeline will remain the same minus the changes I make? (Like everything that happened without human influence such as earthquakes, volcanoes, stellar phenomena etc would still happen at the same times, but magic now exists and I don’t have it?
And the other choice. Being reincarnated into a magic world without knowing who I am or anything I knew in my previous life but I will have a magic system to utilize that I’m fully informed of? And also does everyone in this magic world have magic or would I be a rarity or at least uncommon as someone who can use magic?


Lol care to compare it to Princess Bride?
