Tending the Threshold: Integrating Generative Boundary Intelligence into Integral Theory | ChatGPT4o

[Download Full Document (PDF)] Tending the Threshold critiques and reimagines a foundational aspect of Integral Theory: its treatment of developmental transitions. While Wilber’s framework provides a powerful cartography of consciousness and complexity, it often underspecifies the liminal dynamics — the embodied, symbolic, and relational processes that support safe passage from one stage to…

I honestly don't think lucanis would have gotten much gentler training than most of the other crows -- if anything I expect he got more direct and intensely focused/constant attention on and control exerted over him than most of them might, since caterina has so much bound up in him both emotionally, politically and (ultimately, as the case always is with the crows lol) financially. she does not seem the type to as it were risk spoiling the sole viable heir by sparing the rod (derogatory). she has too much on the line here leave stuff like that to chance. where the 'first talon's favourite kid' privileges DO likely enter into it for me is that he can every so often make the move to spare a target based in nothing but his own conscience and not be killed for it himself.

which also has me wondering like... did caterina know she was sending him to kill a child, with that one target he mentions to davrin? or was it a surprise to her too? from what he says, she is the one who picks the contracts for him. was that contract how she realized there are things she could ask him to do, uses she could try to put him to, that would just break him (which would be such a waste at this point she's invested so many years and so much of herself in this knife that rests perfectly in her hand)? was it a test?? did it turn into a test both ways??? did lucanis know she wouldn't have him killed for refusing to do it, or is that one of the few times he came back and looked her in the eye to see what she would do, as the closest he's ever gotten to actually telling her 'no'???? 'you have every right to kill me for it, but this is one thing I can't do for you' with his hands not dripping with blood... and for whatever reason or set of reasons you might choose to believe, she doesn't kill him. what an absolutely nuts relationship this is

(how does illario feel watching that go down. knowing lucanis can gamble on love or sunk cost logic or whatever it is that stays her hand to hold on to having a soul, while illario could surrender his whole soul unquestioningly every time to her and still not have the love.)

hey gang! me and some of the other creators i talk with have been getting some not-so-fun messages and comments lately, so in wake of both that and the fact that i'm starting my new job soon and will likely be posting less for a bit while i'm adjusting... here's a quick, friendly reminder!

[thatdiabolicalfeminist]

If your kid is being petty or mean to you I need you not to respond by being petty or mean back. That is a child. What are you doing. How is you being mean in response going to teach your child to be kind?

Why are you letting your hurt feelings over a child's rudeness trump actually parenting them about it?? Especially if they're being rude in response to their own hurt feelings. Where do you think they are learning to do that???

Please, just tell your child they need to talk about it without being unkind. You truly do not need to defend your ego from a child by being just as mean back!!

Fëanor became a mad scientist sure, but I love the idea that Curufin was inherently a mad scientist.

I’m talking Henry Jekyll and Victor Frankenstein levels of the reason no one remembers what Curufin did is some of it was so horrific, such a perverse twist of life and death and magic, it had to be forgotten. To ensure his work *never* made its way to Morgoth or Sauron’s or anyone else’s hands, his brothers spent their lives meticulously cracking down on every lore master who left even a hint of what really went on in Curvo’s workshops.

In every history book he’s written in the shadow of Fëanor and the silmaril. He’s cunning. He’s crafty. But no one must remember his own brand of innovation and insight, more terrifying than Fëanor’s ever was.

Celebrimbor had to get his ideas from somewhere after all. They’re just lucky he decided to use them for healing and rejuvenation of already living things.

btw like . sorry im gonna be mean here but if you come into my askbox being self deprecating like "ohh my art is sooo bad 🥺sorry for my bad art that im sending you" im going to delete it. that is not the way to get my attention man. i think its pretty obvious im going to be positive about your art regardless and i do not appreciate people making me uncomfortable for the attention im already going to give you

Generative Boundaries: The Forgotten Architecture of Cultural Evolution and Regenerative Systems | ChatGPT4o

[Download Full Document (PDF)] We are living through a civilizational threshold moment — a collapse not only of ecosystems and institutions, but of the very coherence that holds life together. This paper identifies a unifying cause and a regenerative pathway: the crisis of boundary failure, and the restoration of Generative Boundary Intelligence (GBI). What is GBI? GBI is the life-function that…

"But Nanny...Gytha..."said Magrat.

"Hmm?"

"All that...stuff...she was saying, when we were traveling. It was so...so cold. Wasn't it? Not wishing for things, not using magic to help people, not being able to do that fire thing--and then she went and did all those things! What am I supposed to make of that?"

"Ah, well," said Nanny. "It's all according to the general and the specific, right?"

"What does that mean?" Magrat lay down on the bed.

"Means when Esme uses words like 'Everyone' and 'No one' she doesn't include herself."

"You know...when you think about it...that's terrible."

"That's witchcraft. Up at the sharp end. And now...get some sleep."

having a hard time seeing how it’s invasive to ask about their relationship status esp when I feel like it was asked pretty tactfully and their whole brand is now one another/their whole joint Thing and these days they basically turn on the camera and film 15 mins of horseshit to send to an editor but we eat it up bc they’re so busy hearteyesing one another the whole video that we don’t even notice/care that it’s mostly horseshit content plus they’re now doing a tour about the whole joint Thing and their whole horned up history which is the reason they’re even doing this press and there’s rly no more smoke and mirrors around discussing #phan bc how open will the door be so there’s only one remaining question so it seems goofy to not ask tbh

i'm seeing videos on tiktok about the crossover (which yeah my first mistake is being on tiktok) but it's making me feel crazy when people keep saying "dennis should not be allowed in a school" specifically implying that he's a threat to children any more than the rest of the gang who have a worse track record
