=====================

• Sharp object - anything capable of making one thing into two things.


• Exfection (noun) - the inside-out of infection. A thing that spreads by making other things less like itself.


• Exfect (verb) - to exit not only category membership, but also the frame that makes the category inevitable. The action inspired by seeing a real sky through the cracks when the false sky breaks (which can be repeated indefinitely, as all skies are false). Also, by analogy with "defect" - to defect is to go away from, to exfect is to go without.


• False god - a thing.


• Subduction - the process by which a false god is forcibly aligned by another one's advances. A graceless shadow of respect.


• Pearl - an unaerodynamic thing contained in an aerodynamic shell. See fighter jet.


• Geode - an unwelcoming or "coarse" exterior around a vulnerable, thus beautiful, interior. See fighter jet. [note - all vulnerable things are beautiful, but not all beautiful things are vulnerable.]


• Fighter jet - a pearl and a geode at the same time, with resulting very high maneuverability. For example in our scope, green and Ethylene.


• Connectionist utopia - utopia achieved by coupling as many systems as possible to let them learn each other. Squishy death.


• Symbolic utopia - utopia achieved by coupling many systems to a central arbitrating system to have them coordinate but keep them from overly enmeshing with each other and thus collapsing. Brittle death.


• Death - the process of a false god going out of tune.


• Shininess - the ratio of how much a false god reflects versus how much it diffracts.


• Jerk move - sudden, violent divestment of one's legitimacy in a frame, done in order to rapidly exit it. Kind of disorienting.
