Welcome everybody. Thank you for joining this discussion. Our topic is gravity; and, to start off, I'm going to define what gravity is - in the philosophical sense.
Gravity is the force that binds together the elements that witnessed God's manifestation, revelation - in order to make it relevant / keep it relevant for existence. The elements become messengers we call angels; a particular brand of angel - they propagate the gravitational essence. And by taking over the minds and hearts of the people --taking over as in inspiring us to further existence-- they bring about the synergy for which the manifestation, the revelation has a solution (on how to make it a reality).
The solution we adopt we can make work, make happen in our lives to receive love - insight and courage. Because love, as we all know, is the delicate balance between insight and courage, one cannot manifest love by knowing it, by understanding it - for God is sterile of this world, most of the time. Only in particular instances does this world converge with God's dimension. Therefore, when we do understand God, we need to search for the part of our world that functions as its receptacle, in order to be capacitated and do, realize, bring forth, manifest exactly, or closely, as much as one can, that beneficial, constructive help - solution.
To effectively fulfill its purpose of cutting down stupidity, gravity can manifest in many different forms. People tend to converge, to congregate when there's a potential for God's love. Our strategy and tactics may differ (so, ideally, we won't compromize), but when we're unable to be part of God --indicated by the imperfection of the world we're living in-- we have to compromize intelligently. For that, we need to observe, emulate, empathize and of course dare to change - to bring about change; let it happen, actively seek it out and enjoy it! (because without enjoying it we cannot condition our physical form into maintaining enthusiasm)

The word God is best interpreted as a placeholder, not necessarily to be confused with religious uses thereof. Consider the following definition: God is the niche of existence which is the superlative of awesomeness. You can be part of it when you achieve close to maximum yield of your limited resources. Love starts above all else with the curiosity of how to succeed in being part of the niche to the highest degree possible, and that curiosity gets rewarded with wisdom and the sensation of working towards a high score.
Take any moment in time when people do something obviously awesome (watch a people are awesome compilation on youtube or something), like when you try to land a trick on your skateboard and you nail it just right that one time out of 10000 - to name a banal example. Basically what happened, using this reasoning, is God took your form, or you made God-level. It's best to define God as the niche of existence (so you don't have to deal with the issue of him being real or not) that you can be part of if you tap into this awesomeness zone; because that's what you and everyone else would do with omnipotence.. be as awesome as it gets, to show the people how it's done, i.e. what the maximum yield of one's limited capacity in a particular moment in time is.
Stupidity, by contrast, is punished by getting disconnected from various aspects of the niche. Stupid people are simpletons, who are left with nothing to strive for except alleviation from sensory discomfort - always on the defensive, always reactive instead of proactive. They're in hell, because no living creature can disconnect its sense of contribution to the whole without disconnecting from it entirely. But never confuse hell with hardship - some are simply living life on a higher difficulty level than others and might seem incapacitated just before they overtake everyone else and provide existence with unmatched dynamics of awesomeness.
With this approach there's no place for uncertainty, since you know that existence exists (and finding God is a matter of searching, doing and living as opposed to faith). Likewise, maybe unconventional but definitely sensible, it makes sense to invoke intelligence for godlogic and stupidity. The universally true axiom of godlogic is of course that existence wants to take itself as far as possible - not in a temporal or spacial sense but rather ampleness, complexity and synergy of awesomeness. Stupidity is simply a failure to recognize and prioritize the fruition of that awesomeness - foretelling getting stuck with low levels of functionality and systematic negation of divine potential.-

By creating this thread on another site, I've opened a portal.
I'm relaying the responses from here to there, and am posting the slightly altered echo, along with responses from there, back here, and vice-versa.

Gravity is piss and poo
Now it's "poop"; so "poo" + "piss" = "poop" = "gravity"?do u ever 'edge' ur poop?
It's not unusual for toilet humor to be the subject of congregation, therefore the social equivalent of gravity - in the scientific sense. Coincidentally, I consider a streamer who is very open and nonchalant when talking about aforementioned excretions to have the most entertaining channel on twitch atm. To answer your question, I probably should start to 'edge' my poop.

#10: gravity is what makes poop fall down
Facet is a welcoming hydra. AHHG is a hydra with mod privileges - the password is nearly impossible to deduce without insider knowledge. They are vestiges of forum mafia games played inconspicuously, in-tandem with the ongoing discussions of the time, in regular forum threads, sometimes in the mafia subforum too (mafiaception). Semi-persistent, communist-account constellations enabled interesting mechanics, immersion and consequences - lynched, shot or stabbed players would get locked down, or they were excluded from access updates to scum's mod-privileged hydra (for kills), and the loser folk and modkilled got their personal accounts marked for lockdown or a permaban (which was fun because they had to behave accordingly to warrant it first, as their performance got rated by the winners anticipating a flamboyant spectacle)In post 14, Allomancer wrote:wait what? so are you allhailhydragod or facet @Definition?
#11: Two girls, one fundamental force of nature.
- victory / skill emote, flashed when rubbing in salt and bragging about incoming TL+ subscription gifts - for secretly collaborative-effort posts.
Speaking of fundamentals, fun fact: you might be familiar with anchoring on sites like mafiascum, where the declaration and deployment aren't two separate actions; resulting in a visible declaration-link amalgamation exactly where the teleporting reader arrives at. Not so on teamliquid.net - the declaration of the "name" (quoted to refer to its unlimited scope and content intricacy's potential) is rendered invisible, as long as the magic sustaining |anchor|peek-a-boo|/anchor| pillars are intact! Not only is the anchor bbcode on teamliquid.net unlimited with regard to potential plain text content within its tags, one can also include links, quotes or spoilers - basically any kind of formatting.
This is unusual, since the apparent use of the feature is to just teleport the reader to a particular passage of text; so why would one use additional formatting codes when all that is needed to achieve said purpose is a name, apparently the shorter the better, right? Quote the post or PM, disrupt the tags and preview the result in order to activate the additional formatting codes. As for "public" profile pages, the only people who can influence the display of a teamliquid forumite's profile page (other than that very user) are those with the privilege to do so --mods, admins, the owners-- while nobody else can quote and thus check it forSpoiler:-

Alright, I believe we were at #13. The other forum didn't keep up in terms of number of posts, only in wordcount.
#13: wrote:I would like to know more about what your talking about, please elaborate. One interesting concept about gravity is that it still existed before someone came along and proved how and why it was working; Therefore the same thing could be said about God: just because no one proved its existence, does not mean its not really out there. Nor that he is.
If you have made an ascertainment over your empirical and personal experiences that God does not in fact exist, then your belief is valid. As for myself, I can tell you that in my experience, I used to be a very mathematical and scientifically oriented person, and did not believe in God, reincarnation, the afterlife, the soul. I had an experience that for me proved empirically that the soul leaves the body to go somewhere, and over the course of the years, it gradually changed my prospective about life; But in no way have I ever tried to convince someone else, because simply they did not experience what I did, and therefore have their own belief system. Note that I still used the term believe, because the evidence for me is still inconclusive, but it logically makes much more sense from my experiences. Questions that science could not answer got an answer, a logical one, a practical one. I would take distance from organised religions, because they are organised by humans, some of whom do not believe in anything at all.#14: wrote:A trialed-by-fire result of an otherworldly prophet's selfless dedication to find and map out the optimal subject of congregation and organisation for a religion could go entirely unnoticed, as shifting value constellations are engaged in tumultuous fights for relevance. The appeal of being enlightened by the wisdom can be lost, the lessons on how to manifest where and how one is needed misunderstood, enthusiasm to be involved fleeting. While philosophical aspirations can be compromised or deprioritized in time and space, the funny thing about gravity is that somewhere, for some time, someone took the form of the entity most worthy of being deitized, by being the best they could be, and it brought about a facet of the divine dimension's unadulterated imprint on life, for all to benefit from.
It gets a bit ambiguous @ #16, because there are functional anchor-tags and non-functional ones. The entire message without the functional ones (all visible):#15: wrote:It is perhaps at this juncture that the question "What does it mean?" begins to be heard, and that problems of exegesis prevail over problems of use and efficacy. The emperor, the god--what did he mean? In place of segments of the chain that are always detachable, a detached partial piece of poop on which the whole chain depends; in place of a polyvocal graphism flush with the real, a biunivocalization forming the transcendent dimension that gives rise to a linearity; in place of nonsignifying signs that compose the networks of a territorial chain, a despotic signifier from which all the piss uniformly flows in a deterritorialized flow of writing. Men have even been seen drinking this flow!
As for the clean version, see for yourself. Squeaky. So the anchors function as a mobile speakeasy tent, basically.#16: wrote:

Yes, many men have drank piss. Word around the campfire —before someone put it out by pissing on it— was if you inflate your post count with piss posts, eventually breaching the threshold of post searchability, and still post piss it's a dead giveaway. Supposedly every pisspost on TL can be traced back to the pissy pussy posse Puosu is clearly a high-ranking member of. 'Tis also rumored that every associated member's accounts is operated by the same individual, who also loves to shitpost, recently got made a mod, and is out to close everything that isn't a shitthread and ban everyone who isn't shitposting, now; since what clearly would've turned out to be the best forum mafia game of the decade fell victim to the loss of his/her monumental-fuckup virginity, he/she will most likely consider many a lower-profile targets.
Ok, let's try unequivocal, hatred and melancholy
"Wretched life!" Puosu exclaimed, interrupting a long-lasting silence; which felt, for a long time, uninterruptible. Day had turned into night. A natural process, repeated countless times throughout his life - however, Puosu had witnessed it for the first time while in a patient state of concentration. It's what he set out to do; his undertaking for the evening: to sit in his wooden sofa with leather cushioning, on the front porch of the farmhouse which he and his estranged sister, Fecalfeast had inherited from their grandmother, a couple of months ago. Sit and watch the light fade. Neighborhood dogs started barking as a retort.
"Unequivocally wretched", he protested back. What Puosu didn't articulate right then, in part because there was no (spoiler=Thesaurus).. or rather the language, referring primarily to nonsensical wordings, that gave the word 'thesaurus' an unwarranted, bad reputation(/spoiler)-speaking audience to hear it, was that he felt a high note of joy, originating from a long overdue rediscovery of how it felt like to follow through with a planned course of action. Precise and uncompromising. Planning and execution.
"Life..," he went on to say instead, gradually increasing volume.. shouting: "is a SNOWBALL!" He was never any good at pulling himself together emotionally. "Ughuh, uhhh." A tear slid down his cheek. He rubbed it dry, then got up and made his way towards the fireplace. 'It's going to get cold," he anticipated judging by the lack of clouds; nothing to keep the warmth from dissipating.
That night, he had a dream, of having supper in the candle-lit kitchen. His sister was sitting beside him. As Fecalfeast was eagerly writing something down on a piece of paper, Puosu was trying to eat soup, using a knife for a spoon. He got frustrated and ripped the paper from under her elbow, upon which Fecalfeast grabbed his knife and impaled his eye socket.
Shivering he awoke, sweat-soaked and disoriented. He put his loafers on, slid in the damper to entrap the warm air in the fireplace, changed his undergarments and, wearing a robe, went out to the kitchen to get a glass of water. On the table lay the paper the pieces of which were held together with transparent tape. He took it in his hands and started to read out loud:
"An innocent child, you are playing around in the snow, feeling nothing but joy. God hands you a snowball, and the angels urge you to drop and roll it. Before long, you have built your first snowman, and you summon the angels to have a look. Horrified theyand flee. What has happened, you don't know. Shocked you witness God's amiable face turning furious... the hatred in his eyes."Spoiler: scream
At this point a mended tear traverses the paper. Reading on, Puosu learned that "The sky rips open and time escapes through a celestial event horizon, leaving nothing but a loop of the horrifyingof the infant angels, piercing your heart like icicle daggers, looping on and on for what you intuitively know is infinity times infinity. Enter the devil. He makes you an offer you can't refuse. Consequently it gets hotter and hotter and hotter, but everything except for the snowman is lit infernal. You die in agony."Spoiler: screams
His voice fades.. "But your soul.. You, Puosu. Look at you"'now.'
He pours piss into a glass, drinks up, goes back to bed and sleeps like a baby for ever after.
'You are the pissy snowman'
Get it? Because your icon's an archon? Yeet
Nevertheless,as with many things that wound up being good despite, I now feel inspired to follow this model and open an inter-dimensional portal to the osu! forum, creating and linking two threads —the other in the Broodwar section of TL— with the same name, which I'll create with the purpose of generating hype for a new fad: playing osu! on progamer FPVOD mouseclick beatmaps + official commentary.

Some assholes just don't know how to use it. What even is form illness, if not a bucketdiagnosiception.#16: wrote:I suspect some form illness is at play here.
As Puosu eloquently put it, 'at this juncture' it befits me to include a couple of PMs, a link to a highly relevant closed thread & an updated version of a post made hastily in the aftermath of its closing, undoubtedly having expected the 'Facet' access node's imminent shutdown as well, upon noticing the fate suffered by the original poster of the mafia game thread.
Another PM, sent shortly before posting ambiguous #16. This time to a mafia player who has posted prior to and after the aftermath post, the corrected version of which I'll append after the link to the closed game thread:To: Fecalfeast [ Profile ] Subject: Re: let me host the game Date: 11/17/19 22:49 wrote:Is that a fact.. either way I'm trying to talk to you in your capacity as a mafia player.

And now .. I'm going to edit in a poll in the OP, to see if you would've closed the game thread. Some backstory no the original poster: There was an account named FourFace, which got banned because the user alleged that two mafia-playing accounts, one named marvellosity and one EchelonTee might be owned by the same person, and used in a way that qualified as cheating, coining the #MarvelousET.. also saying that, if it's true, that would be 'gay'. Well actually, during the advanced stage of a game that marvellosity wasn't officially playing in, with EchelonTee alive (and unpleasant according to-), FourFace made a case against ET, with the conclusion that his play was 'gay'. So ET retorted in away that one might call killing two birds with one stone, starting to spew insults at FourFace, which, if the aforementioned case is to be believed, wasn't a start but a continuation of said behavior, thus culminating in belittling his value as a funny player relative to Blazinghand, another player, who happens to also validate the hosts' judgement with regard to repercussions for bad behavior / passes final judgement over the blacklist —which FourFace dismissed as brown-nosing.
At this juncture, marvellosity, who 'came out', attesting to being a homosexual male early —and never bothered to not be flamboyant about it thereafter— in his mafia-playing career, the debut of which saw him teamed up with FourFace, winning the game for town... so anyway, he comes barging into the game thread to call FourFace gay and a dickhead (note that TLMafia games are fast-paced, and 50 pages on a 48h cycle day 1 was never uncommon).
Seven and a half years later, 4face, an account the creation date of which precedes FourFace's, is seen making an inaugural post, the game thread OP and #1 being the second and third... Meh the correction will have to wait, I'm tired. Something about the quasi-zero-G interval being 0.42 seconds not 4.2, lol.. that would be wtf for an airplane stall.. unless.. hmm.. time perception is a funny thing. The form, however, indeed might need curing, and typos and such.. unless .. it was the equivalent of interstellar Matthew McConaughey chronomorsecoding knowledge about what it's like past the event horizon... But nah. I also don't think FourFace knew that the unofficial slogan of TLMafia, 'We handle our moderation internally; we have an understanding with mods that they'll leave us alone,' was complete bullshit, to the point where when the player base is brittle and no games get hosted for two months, someone still finds it in them to report a banned-account-name-alike, aspiring game-host, or, the one mod who regularly frequents the subforum takes solo initiative, and burns down a cool-looking game to the ground, nor did they have any reason to believe in homosexuality, in the literal sense, without cloning, or the figurative sense of generally preferring to intimately lay with a person of the same gender as opposed to one of the opposite. :shrug:
