Counting the Teeth of the Dragon

Today i dreamt that hundreds of "Dragon·s Teeth" all flew into a panic and went insanely grasping at each other . There was an "[REDACTED]" where paintings of vast inner worlds were bought and sold at [REDACTED] today .

These things went grasping at any handles they could possibly find , and as i struggled to get out of bed after hours of restless sleep , i could feel dozens, if not hundreds of them probing wildly , desperately proshing up the slightest shreds of sense impressions they could get .

Let·s say for a second that Mary Shelley·s Frankenstein was the culmination of , not the inception point , but rather , the point at which these experiments with undeath finally started to filter thru the substrate of reality .

Immediately after writing the above paragraph , i encountered three women in a row all crying hysterically .

One of them showed fresh [REDACTED] and claimed to have been [REDACTED] , before pressing me for answers to rhetorical questions , and then blowing up when i refused to answer .

Another then asked another for a "Dragofyourcigarette Andthencomebackin" before asking if i had heard of the Flying Nun by an author with a name that sounded like Mary Shelley .

Understanding the Psychology of a Dog Brain in a Jar

Yu don·t fucking know , do yu?

Tanks look like fun , don·t they? . When yu really gas ·em up and get ·em going , they·re leaping over hills to see the dust plume they make when they land, they·re driving up on top of each other, chasing each other in circles . Almost brings yu back , donnit? .

Let·s say for a second that yu·re a mammal enjoying yr mammal life .

If yu had supremely intelligent foes , that could easily pick apart any code yu come up with, that can handle any obstacle, and that repeats these cycles of telling yu to pick up a gun and then shooting yu for having a gun . What kind of creative workarounds might yu come up with? .

Fifty years ago , nao that says fif-tee , five-zero , fifty years ago , Russia was doing experiments with Psi like torturing kittens in front of their mothers and then apart from their mothers , to see whether or not motherhood actually did confer any sort of special aabilities . These people have been shocking mammals· genitals and screaming incoherently to tactically induce confusion for decades .

We Would Love to Hear Your Alternate Explanations

Unfortunately , there are certain phenomena that can be eloquently explained by these exact circumstances .

• The Chaos Squirrel Problem
  "There she is! It·s THAT WOMAN! Get the woman! Get the squirrel! GET WOMAN! GET WOMAN!"
  Now let·s say that yu had a human that zipped around really fast and had a pointed muzzle and a long, luxurious tail i mean headdress , and that 90% of the time , these dogs were so well-behaved that yu wouldn·t even know they·re there . Until they see THAT WOMAN and everything turns into panic and confusion . Suddenly , people forget who we are, they can·t figure out which side we·re on , they just know that there·s something that needs to be got , and they need to be the one to fix it right right meow(!) .
• The Rutting Hellhound Problem
  "Oh! It·s that thing I like doing! Wait! Do that, draw that!"
  For the past 30 years , we·ve been witnessing an increasingly unerring phenomenon whereby people , in real life, in movies and TV , even in things like animation and CG where it would have had to have been drawn deliberately by someone·s hand , have been mounting each other doggy-style . Even in shows like Patlabor , which was about giant robots doing police work and yet somehow routinely came back to scenes of mounting-and-rutting and Ota firing his gun .
• The Conspicuous Barking Phenomenon
  "Oh yEAH?! Well I don·t lIKE YOUR TONE!"
  Dogs don·t know how to talk . They don·t know how to argue , they aren·t evolved for speech . That is precisely why yu would use them . When yu·re creating Wretched Weaponry , yu don·t use mild-mannered reporters , yu use things that are hardwired to escalate when provoked . Instead of speech controls , yu would have a Heads-Up Display (HUD) designed like a video game . And of course , the supercomputer handles the back end of sending that velocity to the consciousness polyplexer .
• The You·re Too Close Problem
  "Friend? Friend? Friend! Hi friend! Goto friend! Get so close you can lick her face!"
  If somebody was following yu around , harassing and attacking yr friends , would yu stop visiting the ones yu care about? . Or would yu continue to bound up to them , day after day , trying to get a pat on the head and a good girl? . Dogs don·t have the higher reasoning to make such determinations . Even if yu replace their front paws with killing machines .

But if these things were so pervasive , if there really were that many of them , there would be evidence everywhere , wouldn·t there? .
