    I don’t really know, but I think it’s mostly to do with pentagons being under-represented in the world in general. That and the specific way that a pentagon breaks symmetry. But it’s not completely impossible to get em to make one. After a lot of futzing around, o1 wrote this prompt, which seems to work 50% of the time with FLUX [pro]:

    An illustration of a regular pentagon shape: a flat, two-dimensional geometric figure with five equal straight sides and five equal angles, drawn with black lines on a white background, centered in the image.

    To choose order over disorder, or disorder over order, is to accept a trip composed of both the creative and the destructive. But to choose the creative over the destructive is an all-creative trip composed of both order and disorder. To accomplish this, one need only accept creative disorder along with, and equal to, creative order, and also willing to reject destructive order as an undesirable equal to destructive disorder.

    The Curse of Greyface included the division of life into order/disorder as the essential positive/negative polarity, instead of building a game foundation with creative/destructive as the essential positive/negative. He has thereby caused man to endure the destructive aspects of order and has prevented man from effectively participating in the creative uses of disorder. Civilization reflects this unfortunate division.

  • I think this is accurate. But I’d like to restate it.

    The Left (as the apparent big tent party full of literal minorities) has been learning to deal with disenfranchisement and the feeling “that their anguish is belittled as a personal failure, and often downright mocked” for its entire existence. Because of a huge variety of factors, the Right is losing some of its influence. They are not handling this well. The Left (being well acquainted with feeling unheard) should have been able to help the Right through this transition. Due to deep seated insecurities on both sides, we are no longer able to help one another as a people. Buckle up.
