THE PRINCIPIA DOOM SCROLLICA:
**FNORD**
Social media doom is a cargo cult. We see bad things happening, so we share bad things happening, performing the ritual of awareness, hoping that if we doom-scroll hard enough and retweet urgently enough, we’ll summon the spirits of Change and Solution. Instead, we mostly summon cortisol and targeted advertising
Natives of the Liminality
Herein lie keys to the Gates that may open. Prepare for the various natives – beings, creatures, entities, personalities, even deities – that you may encounter out here in the Liminality. Sometimes they may even be found in the mundane world, haunting (or guarding) the portals and passages that lead outside.
About the Cosmic Liminality
Further thoughts The Cosmic Liminality is a surrealist project aimed at capturing the strange occurrences happening in the world as we move through the liminal phase of global (cosmic) initiation that I believe we’re currently living in. Background: In the anthropological study of initiation there are three phases found in instances all over the worldContinue reading “About the Cosmic Liminality”
Waking Life, Richard Linklater
What’s the weirdest movie you’ve ever watched? Richard Linklater’s “Waking Life” might not be the weirdest movie I’ve seen, but it’s certainly my favorite weird film and the most memorable. From the surreal artistic live animation style, to the existential and often profound content of the character monologues, along with the reality bent setting, thisContinue reading “Waking Life, Richard Linklater”
Lovecraft’s Cosmicism
What’s a piece of media (book, movie, song) that changed how you see the world? Running throughout Lovecraft’s work is the philosophical perspective later deemed Cosmicism: the idea that our claims of understanding and domination are pitiful illusions against the backdrop of the vast incomprehensible cosmos, best summed up in the opening paragraph of TheContinue reading “Lovecraft’s Cosmicism”

Holding hands
What’s a cultural tradition from another country that you wish existed in yours? I wish it was culturally appropriate to hold hands with platonic friends during conversations.
Absurd
What is the meaning of life? Why does life need to have a meaning? Is that supposed to improve its quality somehow?
Necronomicon (about)
The Necronomicon: The writhing way of one human’s existence generated an ill-regarded cyclopean skin scroll. The text aimlessly rends the cosmic evolution of the world we embody. Participants emphasize partial pondering to remain flexible, because by reading within, mortal men suffer from hyperbolic geometries extracted from a liberation ontology that evolved to greet certain monolithicContinue reading “Necronomicon (about)”
LiminalSec Advisory Alert:
Unsanctioned Enlightenment LiminalSec Advisory Bulletin 42-B: On the Rise of Unsanctioned Enlightenment There was a time when reality possessed load-bearing walls. Causality behaved predictably. Geometry respected the dignity of angles. Individuals experienced thoughts locally, rather than receiving them as compressed emissions from adjacent conceptual weather systems. That time has passed. Over the last decade, LiminalSecContinue reading “LiminalSec Advisory Alert:”
1984
What’s a classic book that you think is overrated? I mean it’s not like it’s prophecy. More like a field manual.

Mingled voices of hauntology’s spectres
This text explores how the final bits our of identity are a memory core of the snail’s “mucus test.” Identity is a slow trail made from the slime of moments. The phenomenon of mingled voices approaches two distinctive modalities of operationally irrelevant conversational dynamics.
