@SophiaSuccubus @GlitchesBrew @gypsy_panther you know how train railroads are "held in place" without any single thing technically holding them down in place? that's how I think about 'faith in things that won't betray us'. everything has a probablistic chance of betraying us and we have to manage that in a 'networked' way

@SophiaSuccubus @GlitchesBrew @gypsy_panther in practice to me what that means is building relationships with a diverse group of people you trust, from different backgrounds and contexts https://t.co/cqq43w3uEC
