blather_philosophy TCMT What are the great tenants of the blather verse. They can compliment each other. They can contradict. List them here. 131113 ... TCMT Blather is free. No one rules over it. Sometimes the gods come down and intervene, but only when blather is threatened. We blatherskites of the blatherverse do the work of expansion, of questioning, of building new dreams. 131113 ... epitome of incomprehensibility I'm not a tenant, I'm just a squatter. Tee-hee. Of course, it's a natural thing to spell words the way you're thinking of them sounding - just yesterday I wrote "lightly" instead of "lately" and it made no sense at all. What are the main tenets of blather, do you think? With or without reference to the "twisty tangly bunches of words" (etc.)? 131113 ... e_o_i Hm. But you asked people in general, and now people in specific are asking you. That isn't fair, is it. 1. So I'd say that if you are a person wanting to write words you are welcomed by the machine. You may not be welcomed by the other people, but you are welcomed by the code. And if you are a spambot than the captcha thing is there as a barrier. If you are a robot that can type, though, that's a grey area. (Would that be a tenet, though? I don't know.) 131113 ... TCMT For a person who loves words I have a lot of gaps in knowledge when it comes to them. I had no clue that was how you spelled that word to be perfectly honest. 131113 ... TCMT I guess what I am referring to is the culture of blather. I was going through some older posts yesterday and it occurred to me that there is a certain culture to blather, a way of thinking... 131113 ... meta meta 131114 ... TCMT for me, the blather culture seems to defend the individual's right to offer anything to the blatherverse, even if other people don't like it. When someone writes a blathe about the state of blather, blatherskites come out the woodworks to tell that someone that blather is what you make it, you being anyone. Personal dislike is not a cause for censorship. In a lot of ways, blather as an entity is way more accepting of different thoughts and ideas than anywhere else I've been, in the real world or on the net. You are free here. That is one cultural belief that I think blather possesses. 131115 what's it to you? who go blather from
