keystone memes as inconspicuous ideas that nonetheless hold a world view together, keystone people that play the same role in communities

Lethe is in fact a powerful solvent for ideas. Handle carefully and you can blow soap bubbles with it, each a tiny, transient, doomed world.

One, we have no idea where it got its entropy from, had reinvented life. We opened it and nearly destroyed a civilization of atomic dwarves.

idea being that, with the right coordinate transformation, the latter may become legible

hair (n): that which philosophical razors discard - often pretty plumage and pelts, can be worn by other ideas for disguise

Certain ideas are all hair: When you give them a shave with your collection of philosophical razors, nothing is left.

random bad idea: fullcircle, a linker for (micro)services that takes in a number of API specs and produces a spec for the composite system

similarly, there are ideas that cannot be voiced, not because they’re ineffable, rather they’re ruined the moment you use language for them

there’s a membrane of comforting illusions between you and reality, you can peel it off like a screen’s, oh so tempting and such a bad idea

The most noble ideas are hard to capture. Like their gaseous brethren, they float free and don’t connect with anything.

we work in the slaughterhouse, butcher ideas, process their flesh, wear the scent of corruption and decay↵one whiff scrambles your thoughts

we compress ideas and history into narratives because they become legible this way.↵↵math is a narrative for truth

larval worlds, slowly pulsing and glowing from within, sucking from idea conduits, growing in the writer’s mind to hatch through the fingers

the whirligig twirls, flashes and chimes in the wind of ideas and occasionally produces a tweet

You feel dizzy as they draw your nectar, whole dream worlds flash by, but ｏｈ the pollen they leave, alien ideas that melt into your mind

@freemor@freemor.homelinux.net Okay, i admin, i have no idea what a TZAG is? And thanks for the great link about CloudFlare! MITM on 5% of the web…

Watch it for a while and it’ll seep into your mind. Tiny doses help creativity, but any larger and it leaves only a frothing mass of ideas.

A puddle of acid, a shimmering pool of light, an idea, a piece of paper with calculations written on it, a dazzling fractal, a lump of iron,

He catalogues his thoughts and a periodic system emerges. It is of great help hunting down undiscovered ideas, but he dreads its completion.

the mosquitoes here penetrate skulls to suck ideas↵if you swat one, it’ll leave an ink-black smear of words and images on your palm

I was once bitten by a radioactive idea and now I shoot them out of my fingers

Evolution has made the human skull a near ideal resonator for ideas. Put a few strings on one, play it well, and ghostly dreams will emerge.

“Zggt, making the continents match up in shape was a masterstroke! Their exobiology, it’s all screwy from those plate tectonics ideas!”

The space pirates of Inner Space enter your dreams, make off with your shiny ideas, sail conceptual relationships into raids on faerieland

Speak into this little box here to start the engine. If your idea is any good, its spark should ignite the fuel-soul mixture and off you go.

You can explore dreamtime in a bathysphere, dreamproof and designed to withstand great pressure. Or go native, grow gills, breathe ideas.

Old idea of mine whose time may have come: VR/AR overlay that lets you spam virtual graffiti and imaginary buildings

the coffee is so strong that it recoils from my lips↵so full of ideas that it’s sentient, wants to keep them, doesn’t want to be drunk

Hey I wonder if I can open my ear with that–↵↵[this is my ghost speaking on my behalf: sorry for the mess, that was a stupid idea]

A heavy cable is hanging from that storm cloud, ending in a power plug at my feet. I feel like it’s a bad idea to unplug it right now.

ideas rust when stored improperly. put them out while they’re fresh and gleaming.

ism (v)↵not only having an idea, but writing the book on it, founding a movement↵”I had this great idea but some guys ism’d it in the 19th”

@dracoblue@dracoblue.net I’m not sure if i’m ready to document the streaming interface, i’m still playing with different ideas.

@mylesb Nice idea!

@dracoblue@dracoblue.net Sorry, but what tweet are you referring to? I have no idea what sounds great… We need a way to reference tweets!

I think we sometimes forget that even with all the advanced web technologies, you can still share your ideas with a simple text file.

@kas@enotty.dk Great Idea! I wouldn’t worry about the file size. Content-Encoding gzip should get you a very good compression rate.

Or we can use it to refback. Every time you mention somebody you send a HEAD with your twturl in the referer to her adddress. Any ideas?

someone with write access to the platonic realm put it there but somehow you think it’s a good idea to solve the labyrinth

Idea: Cohesive communities are the villages of cyberspace, pluralistic sprawls like twitter/FB the cities. It’s a difference in philosophy.

Does anybody have a good idea for a default color set? I used the first color that crossed my mind, so the default theme is rather ugly.

He sells them in sets of five, together with ideas for rituals. Priests are encouraged to trade their temples and find new ways of worship.

We just started to watch The West Wing a week ago. No idea how I could have overlooked it for 17 years, it’s so good!

[go through all possible permutations of a small amount of ideas]

Atoms are small but are a big idea. More exotic are the large things that are small ideas: you could be bathing in them and not know.

other bot idea: https://twitter.com/allgebrah/status/698488822892519425↵tweet gibberish at it and it will try to find it in the noise.

bot idea: crop circle generator↵bonus if the circles can encode ~140 bytes (yes, that won’t fit some unicode tweets)

I had an interesting idea. What if you mashed up tor hidden services and @twtxt?

horror vacui’s obscure sibling, horror abundantis: the writer’s ideas pile up against the mind’s floodgates and they can’t write fast enough
