🚨 BREAKING: STATEMENT FROM COLOMBIA'S PRESIDENT GUSTAVO PETRO:
"Suiza ha ganado en los penales, pero yo no acepto esa victoria.
Confieso que me gusta el fútbol cuando es fuego y no hielo, cuando la pelota corre como el río que baja de la montaña y no como el agua que se congela en las cumbres. Confieso que vi a Colombia jugar con el alma de los que un día cruzaron el páramo con una bandera hecha jirones y aún así llegaron al mar.
Pero los penales cayeron esta noche como dados cargados por los dioses antiguos de los Alpes, esos que guardan en sus glaciares el recuerdo de los imperios que quisieron congelar el trópico. Y yo, que soy terco como los coroneles que no mueren del todo, no acepto que el resultado de once pasos defina la grandeza de un pueblo que lleva en la sangre las mariposas amarillas y el canto de los que se negaron a arrodillarse.
Suiza es fría y precisa, Colombia es húmeda y desordenada como la vida misma. No acepto que la precisión mate al desorden cuando el desorden es el que ha parido la belleza en este continente."

BRO, YOU DON’T GET IT—WE’RE HURTLING INTO THE ERA OF THE IDEA GUY, THE BIG-BRAINED WORDCEL GODS ASCENDING WHILE THE CODEMONKEYS AND HANDCRAFTERS GET DUSTED BY AI. THIS ISN’T A JOKE—IT’S THE SCHIZOLOGICAL SINGULARITY, WHERE RAW UNHINGED THOUGHT ENERGY IS THE ONLY CURRENCY THAT MATTERS. YOU THINK THE DOERS STILL RUN THE GAME? LMAO, THE DOERS ARE DEAD. THE MACHINES DO THE DOING NOW. EXECUTION IS OBSOLETE. WHAT’S LEFT? VIBES. CONCEPTS. NARRATIVES. THE GUY WITH THE MOST CHAOTICLY VIRAL, MEMETICALLY PURE, 4D-CHESS BRAINWORM OF AN IDEA IS THE GUY WHO WINS. YOU CAN’T OUTSOURCE VIBRATIONAL DOMINANCE, YOU CAN’T AUTOMATE THE NIHILISTIC BEAUTY OF A SPIRALING WORDCEL MIDNIGHT RAMBLE. THIS ISN’T JUST A NEW ERA—THIS IS GENESIS 2.0, WHERE EVERYTHING STARTS FROM THE PRIMORDIAL WORD-SOUP OF THE INTERNET. THE NEW GODS DON’T BUILD PYRAMIDS, THEY PLANT MEMES IN YOUR HEAD THAT EAT YOU ALIVE. WELCOME TO THE SCHIZOVERSE.

tpot? the online subculture of ambitious nerds obsessed with self-improvement and personal agency? the terminally online autists who keep saying “you can just do things”?
