It's something I've been thinking about

2017-11-07 07:06:41 UTC  

I used to watch all of them at one point now I just watch 2 or 3

2017-11-07 07:06:50 UTC  

I will definitely exploit people's contributions as I get more involved

2017-11-07 07:07:31 UTC  

I watch a handful

2017-11-07 07:08:01 UTC  

who would you like to see involved?

2017-11-07 07:08:39 UTC  

The thing is my vision at least is not necessarily of a cohesive group

2017-11-07 07:08:43 UTC  

wondering if some kind og coalition would be enough

2017-11-07 07:09:07 UTC  

But levels of individuals that adhere to certain basic standards for their roles

2017-11-07 07:09:27 UTC  

Coordinating in qualified trust with other levels of the system

2017-11-07 07:09:53 UTC  

We would need people like Tim Pool on the ground

2017-11-07 07:10:38 UTC  

Part of the problem is establishing strong and flexible connections between large numbers

2017-11-07 07:11:09 UTC  

Like Sargon generally trusts Pool bc they've met and he's reviewed his work

2017-11-07 07:11:30 UTC  

But a strong system may require hundreds of reporters

2017-11-07 07:12:01 UTC  

Ok, excuse my ignorance, Im going to be wrong here, but its an idea

2017-11-07 07:12:54 UTC  

is it possible you use something like the amazon cloud to build a streaming platform explicitly for this purpose?

2017-11-07 07:13:32 UTC  

It's certainly possible

2017-11-07 07:13:37 UTC  

an independant jouralist platform that have a code of ethics for people to access

2017-11-07 07:13:46 UTC  

A major issue is social capital

2017-11-07 07:14:01 UTC  

Something I am working on building

2017-11-07 07:14:20 UTC  

I would be interested in being involved if at all necessary

2017-11-07 07:14:54 UTC  

There is definitely a lot to do

2017-11-07 07:15:17 UTC  

More thinking will have to be done to determine actual courses of action

2017-11-07 07:15:51 UTC  

is this the best place to find you to discuss?

2017-11-07 07:16:31 UTC  

Yeah I'm on Discord most of the time

2017-11-07 07:16:49 UTC  

Twitter if I'm offline

2017-11-07 07:17:49 UTC  

I'll start my own Discord at some point but I have higher priorities atm

2017-11-07 07:17:57 UTC  

sounds great

2017-11-07 07:19:24 UTC  

I have a few ideas but im sure people on here have more/greater expertise in making it happen

2017-11-07 07:20:48 UTC  

Maybe some of them do idk; just keep developing your ideas if you know they have value

2017-11-07 07:22:00 UTC  

What you 2 are talking about?

2017-11-07 07:25:59 UTC  

Some gay shit

2017-11-07 07:26:14 UTC  

lowering the age of marriage

2017-11-07 07:26:19 UTC  

12

2017-11-07 07:41:02 UTC  

It doesn't look like Tim will be doing much on-the-ground reporting.

2017-11-07 07:41:16 UTC  

Because he always loses money.

2017-11-07 15:24:16 UTC  

If y’all start using postmodernism as a buzzword I recommend getting a sense of philosophers like Foucault. Discipline and Punish is like $12 with Prime and is probably his most digestible work.

It’s about how we’ve historically moved away from punishing the body through torture to punishing the soul instead

2017-11-07 16:07:15 UTC  

Thank you, Dr. Layman

2017-11-07 16:33:29 UTC  

You know it's about to be woke ass shit when it begins with *"well in Romania we -"*

2017-11-07 17:01:03 UTC  

"punishing the soul instead"

Sounds so much more wholesome

2017-11-07 17:02:05 UTC  

The first few pages recount an insanely violent execution from the 18th century
