"The Voidmother isn't real, of course. She's just a ridiculous story made up by those people whose minds were taken over by the Voidmother."
I like this quote, 'cause it makes me think of a fictional entity having enough influence as an idea to "take over" people's minds, in short to change the way they would act without physically existing as a concrete person.
Okay, shot in the dark here, but this is probably the right crowd.
When I was a teenager, I had a book about Magic Squares. I don't remember much about it... but it had some weird genetic algorithm for "breeding" new generations of magic squares from other squares, illustrated with these crazy almost occult-looking diagrams. The math was solid, it was all just highly eccentric, including giving all the generations women's names.
That's all I remember.
Anyone seen anything like this?

@anthracite Too much power! :O
I call on Ulfra when I want to cook, myself!
This morning, after yoga, I performed a bit of magic I have done with some success in the past: I called upon the spirits of the dinosaurs to bring me strength to get through the day, as I prepared the unfertilized eggs of their remote relation for breakfast.
But I had done badly at the important step of "cleaning the skillet". And compounded this by leaving it to warm up a little too long. So when I poured olive oil on, it caught on fire.
Perhaps my summoning of their strength was a bit too powerful. Or perhaps I just got the Comet instead.
I am perfectly safe, nothing was harmed. Except my eggs, which are a smelly mess full of lingering Idontknow that are now in the disposal.
I think I'm going to Morsel for breakfast.

I think it's also important to remember that we can never see past the illusions. The best we can do is to make sure we try out as many lenses as possible, but we should never let ourselves think we've found the One True Lens.
Because, you know... meta-narratives and shit :D
... but also dissolve the state Ⓐ
Nations are illusions. While it can be useful to observe human behavior as nations, that is just one lens to see human behavior.
@firecoals Yup, we're in agreement! I just explained myself poorly. Happens most when I'm on my phone.
According to Realism, the Cold War *couldn't* come to an end, not without another hegemony in control. The collapse of the USSR was completely unpredicted -- and with that, the end of the cold war.
But with the way things are going, perhaps it's more that the USSR collapsed into balkanization just shortly before the US ends up doing the same thing.

@firecoals
Er, the ending to the cold war I meant
@firecoals
They didn't predict the cold war much at all, given that Realism political philosophy dictated there must always be more than one hegemony, then the USSR collapsed
