Today in "the collapse of civilization":
🤡 IMF warns of 'economic collapse' unless G20 extends debt relief
“We may see economic collapse in some countries unless G20 creditors agree to accelerate debt restructurings and suspend debt service while the restructurings are being negotiated,” IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva said in a blog. What Georgieva failed to mention is that she was not talking about small developing countries but rather places like the United States.
🤡 US keeps Japan, China on 'monitoring list' over currency practices
US Treasury Department accusing Japan and China over potentially “unfair” currency practices. What they really mean is these countries have stopped buying worthless US government bonds.

Evergrande is finished. The CCP now owns and controls Evergrande fully. The foreign bondholders will NOT be paid. Only the bondholders inside China will be paid. This is going to have serious global financial ramifications.
🤡 The European surveillance State marches on: "European Council agrees its negotiating mandate on transparency of crypto-asset transfers."
The aim of the proposal is to introduce an obligation for crypto-asset service providers to collect and make accessible full information about the sender and beneficiary of the transfers of virtual or crypto assets they operate. This is what payment service providers currently do for wire transfers. The purpose is to ensure traceability of crypto-asset transfers, so as to be able to better identify possible suspicious transactions and if necessary blocking them.

Neural hydroponics as qualia engineering
- Thinking about our peripheral nervous system as a root system. our sensory experience as the nutrients.
- With hydroponics, we can fine tune the nutrient mix to grow better plants. need the equivalent for our sensory system and the mind.
- "Qualia is all that you perceive, engineering is how to transform that space". neural hydroponics as qualia engineering.
- "Are psychedelics the short-term neural hydroponics?" They’re one of them also, the media you consume, people you spend time with, places you frequent longer-term: meditation, environment, values, beliefs
- I like the idea of being intentional about the sensory experiences (qualia) that help you grow
also what frameworks and technologies could assist with this.
