It’s hard to see any hope for the world. It’s interesting to think of oneself as being crazy. They say that it’s one of those catch 22s, literally, you can’t be crazy and know you’re crazy. That’s my problem. It’s about knowledge. I’m a pretty good pragmatist so my vocabulary and library is pretty much…
I feel like Ahab and there are enough harpoons in Moby Dick to believe that the job was finally done. In the ever expanding world of Christendom, resources were needed and men went out into the oceans to kill the whales so that people could read in the winter time. It is interesting to note…
Is Donald Trump competent? I decided to start by googling this concept because generally speaking, Google is pretty honest to my mind. There is the commercial aspect of the world and how much space that controls in our bandwidth. But the general algorithm does seem to believe that the world is better believing in ecology…
What are the limits of your body? When you are new in the world and just moving around, you are testing your boundaries and your limits every day. And you practice. And there you are, you’re doing it like nothing. We are celebrating the Olympics globally. That it must be shrouded in the layer of…
No. This is not the way we do this. This is not a popularity contest. There is a big difference between democratically electing leaders and having a schoolyard popularity contest. They are two completely separate entities. One is where we challenge the boundaries of our common sense to come to agreement about how to be…
If mulch is all you need and grass has sufficient everything, let’s do it. So we take down all of the plants that have grown tall with us that are not particularly our food and we put them on top of the gardens as soil amendment. We can let them dry for a few days….
The truth is that I made it through about 3 minutes before giving up on it. Everyone knows what I’m talking about but I guess if you want to watch again, here is the link. I don’t buy the narrative. It’s not even the debate itself but the packaging. The excitement of it all. Key…
I gave a thought today about dealing with my particular situation. For most of my life, I’ve heard people talk about this but something about my own physicality led me to believe that this was a myth. Currently, I’m having more than a few health problems and the level of negativity that I gained from…
Mostly good these days. The sickness is dissipating slightly although it still exists. Nobody did anything about it but maybe we have let the infection eat everything it wants to eat and it’s just dying out naturally. Not my particular choice on how to deal with illness. Well, it is de facto my choice but…
It’s hard to say. Pretty much everything in the world is a little good and a little bad. Nothing is truly wonderful and nothing is genuinely so horrible. Well, there are some pretty horrible things with very little good in them and unfortunately, very few truly beautiful things that are not sullied in some way….
I think I’m reaching new levels of hopelessness. The ironic thing here is that the actual hopelessness comes from my relationship to people who never stop looking at me instead of listening to what I say. It’s like dealing with My 50th generation alcoholic cat who won’t stop masturbating every time he sees me because…
The president of Ukraine is pretty good about making daily videos. He is a good social media man. He is a very social man and he likes having many many connections. This is a very good thing. There was a time in my life when I thought being good to everybody was the right thing…
There comes a time when a person must get up and do what must be done. Traditionally, just thought has to do with going to war. I am personally not of the belief that the greatest motivator to get one up is to kill your fellow man or destroy the landscape. Sometimes I think it…
I had the unfortunate displeasure of running across the following video today. I would not go so far as to say it ruined an otherwise wonderful day. I don’t remember a day that has not been ruined. People ruin other people’s days as a hobby. This is not everybody. Some people work really hard not…
Our illustrious publisher has been challenged publicly. And publicly he has faced the challenge. The region agrees that a choice is clear. G gets the office. Listen to G or you are really not going to like the results. Editor’s note: for what happened as clearly reported as possible as well as some other news…
Sometimes I just get tired of talking and thinking and I like to listen to other people talk and think. But not like I’m looking for someone to tell me how to live but someone who tells me about the people who tell us how to live. This is where Christopher Hitchens actually shines. As…
I think we might need to create a new heading called nostalgia. I have some pictures in my head that are asking to be put together to make a very specific point about the use of alcohol in conjunction with anything. And it has to do with both playing sports and observing sports and living…
It’s hard for me to find something particularly specific to say about this video except to say that I am speaking. I mean, I’m not claiming to be an influencer here, I’m saying that I think exactly like him. However, I think all thinking that matches up, especially in times such as we have, might…
