The idea behind an auxiliary language is that everybody would only need to learn two languages: their native language and the auxiliary language. You’d talk to people in your own community in your native language and use the auxiliary to talk to foreigners. This helps to preserve language diversity while enabling international communication. To facilitate this, a good auxiliary language needs to be easy to learn and flexible enough to express a wide array of concepts. Esperanto is the most popular auxiliary language.

As it turns out, the Esperanto Wikipedia does have an article on the calendar. However, the day names are presented in French, so there is still no definitive answer to this particular question lmao

Predictive text won’t write a book for you. Nobody has developed psychosis from using a search engine.

Your argument is reductive, like seeing somebody panicking because a hurricane is coming and responding with “What’s the big deal? It’s just a rainstorm!”

Not quite. They’re both Satanic churches. TST is more activist and fights for the rights of Satanists in court.

There’s a good breakdown of the differences here.

To start with, we don’t believe in Satan.

Neither does the Church of Satan, to be fair.

The “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” mentality.

So, my partner would do this. One day, she was driving me home from work, and there was a period of extended silence between us, and we had this conversation:

Her: Whatcha thinkin’ about?

Me: What would the days of the French Revolutionary Calendar be if they were translated into Esperanto?

Her: …

Me: Well, you asked.

What makes you think that the universe is infinite?

Can’t you just say “That shit is annoying fucking garbage”?

AI once again taking jobs from human workers smh

It’s like those arguments over whether or not it’s okay to punch Nazis. The people who were arguing about it were never going to punch any Nazis in the first place.

Easy to see where this is going. The government has used agents provacateur in the past. All they have to do is get somebody undercover to start talking violent and then step in and sweep up all the activists to “investigate” the “threat”.

This has a chilling effect and puts the anti-AI movement on ice. The cases drag on through the courts and a huge scandal erupts once people eventually see what has happened. In the meantime, though, all of those data centers get built with only token opposition, because most people are too afraid to speak up.

Somehow, I don’t think that would fly with the purity police who are behind this stuff.

That’s because they’re from two different sects. The Rules of the Earth come from the Church of Satan, and the 7 Tenets come from The Satanic Temple.

I forgot that different denominations have diffident requirements. I always thought it was pretty sketchy having the barrier to entry be that low.

Yeah, but then we get into “what is human?” Last time I checked, humans can’t walk on water, raise the dead, or resurrect themselves.

I don’t understand why anybody does communion or baptism or any of it. I mean, I do because it’s all bonding and stuff, but if you look at the religion on paper, all you need to do is accept Jesus and you’re saved. You don’t even have to go to church!

Withdrawal only lasts a few days at most.

There are two kinds of people: those who want to remove the boot from the neck and those who want to be the one wearing the boot.

This is not a MAGA thing. This is an oligarch thing. Remember that the NSA stuff that Snowden revealed was during the Obama adminstration.

It’s not insane. It’s advanced!
