Paul Williams | The Johnny Carson Show
This is shortly after filming wrapped up for Battle.
Hylics
How do we know who's a Hylic and who's not? Is it the Apathetic Joe who shakes his head at the truth & denies evidence? Probably. Is it a Techbro trying to cheat death by merging with computers? Most likely. Is it a visitor of this community who thinks themselves better than those who don't know or don't care? IDK, but we could all use a little reflection.
Pleroma or Las Vegas
What do you think it looks like: A network of bliss where we feel instead of see or realities of our own we can dwell in? Do we create or assimilate?
My literalist approach is off-putting to some, but this faith is open source.

Has anyone made this connection, yet?
The Shadow would be the result of Mae & Osha literally becoming one entity.
That's my theory, at least.
Do you think the Monad loves the Demiurge?
What I mean by "love" is the same love the Monad feels for humanity. Do you think he wants the Demiurge to wake up & come home? He was born into the Pleroma, but cast out by Sophia into the Kenoma. If Sophia can be forgiven & still loved, then maybe Yaldabaoth could be forgiven for his sins & be welcomed home, too?
Grant Morrison Lecture (DisinfoCon 2001)
Legendary comic writer & Chaos Magickian, Grant Morrison, discusses his experience with extradimensional beings in relation to Gnostic mythos & other metaphysical concepts.
Consensus
How do we feel about the Demiurge? It feels like some of us treat him like:
A tragic figure
A Bond Villain
A little bitch.
I can't figure out how I feel about him, tbh.
Prom Night Kenoma Baby
He's taking a stroll, yeah, he's taking a stroll...
TempleOS?
This is a half-serious question regarding that maddening OS, but has anyone here ever actually used it? Either for shits & giggles or research purposes (or otherwise)? It is such a fascinating distro.

Best OS for Clear & Concise Privacymaxxing (lol)
Like anyone in this day & age, I'm paranoid & care dearly about my privacy. I've bounced around different OSs, but nothing really seems to stick. I don't want to have to settle for Ubuntu. Nothing really against them, but I'm not very confident using them. I first went with Manjaro & was fairly decent with it. I admit to vibe-coding before, but I learned a good lesson there.
I've heard great things about Tails & Whonix, but I'm not sure if I wanna go with something so strong.
I'm a casual gamer, but I'm also a writer. I don't want what I read & write to be free game to some weasely little shit behind an overclocked Windows XP desktop.
Considering dual-booting a different OS for gaming & one to maximize my privacy.
What are your thoughts? New to this sub.
How does one spread the gospel?
I usually teach my friends about it through memes & parts of the Nag Hamadi (and others). Memetics is a pretty solid way of teaching subconsciously. What about you guys?
What do you think of this statement?
"The Gnostics' mistake is that many treat the material world as evil. In truth, it is the part of Heaven we can touch."
