Theo du Plessis is a minimalist. We are surrounded by the stuff that we think is so valuable and important, but take it all away and what is left? The real you is left. Or at least the journey to the real you without all the stuff that you think defines you. In this video,…
In its never-ending quest for the truth, the Utopian! has gone to the street to ask people the answer to this age old question. How do you know when it’s real? How do you know if that special person even exist or if it’s absolutely not the person you are sharing space here. I don’t…
I ran into some YouTube shorts from YouTuber Ayoub Hajji. It’s interesting to see how this man is making money. And he has almost 3 million subscribers. He makes money. I cannot say that I am an absolute master of this thing we call show business but I have heard the phrase that any good…
It is for a male and interesting thought to dwell on. Exactly how long do we need a mother? It might also be worth asking if the answer is no whether or not we need a mother from time to time? Or is it just that sometimes we need a mother and sometimes we don’t?…
I have been doing a lot of thinking about sports and especially baseball lately. American football is starting and it does show up on my algorithm that I’m interested. I played American football. I understand a little bit about American football. Do I like American football? Not like I did when I was growing up. …
In a self-funded, completely independent study of a small group of people, I found I liked fucking very much. I want to be clear that I am new to this game. The boy who was generous enough to donate his time and energy to the project agreed that fucking was a very pleasurable way to…
After an infinite millenia of servitude as being held in low esteem for our smaller yet surprisingly supple framework, women now understand what having the right of decision over your own body is really all about. Kitten has got to purr and Mama has got to groom and that’s all there is to it. The…
Forget about modern Life. Let’s just say we go camping and we are next to a river that’s running very quickly. You can smell the water and see a lot of life I suppose. Or maybe it’s in the mountains and it’s very very cold. Take a little drink. I bet it’s really good. Not…
I still have not watched the entire thing but I have watched this podcast enough to believe it’s worthy of discussion here. Why it is worthy of discussion is interesting. The point of view that one should take when discussing someone who is literally, an icon to a great percentage of the society. In India…
Hi. Technically speaking, I am the guy. I’m the guy people wait for and are afraid of. I’m the guy who creates jealousy in our simple-minded opposition. We have opposition who exists simply to be opposing. They don’t listen and they don’t think and they don’t act wisely. They love pageantry. They love dress up….
I think that the carnivores like bicycling because it builds itself into their own love of consumption. For a carnivore to look at a bicyclist, especially a road bicyclist, there’s the opportunity to see the opportunity to claim vast expenses of time and distance for one’s self. The ultimate freedom. You are away from the…
I have a couple of YouTubes to share from a pair of sources that seem to be very like-minded. The first is an interview with Sophie Scott-Brown. According to her biography from the Institute of Intellectual History: Dr Sophie Scott-Brown is Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of East Anglia, where she teaches intellectual history….
Welcome to our coverage of this year’s longest day celebration. The time according to the internet is 11:50 p.m. just before midnight. It seems a strange time to celebrate the Sun but that’s exactly what we are going to do. This being said, this is a fertility festival for without the Sun, we do not…
I have been a dedicated bicyclist for a very long time. They didn’t have blogs around when I quit my car or maybe I would have done a whole series about it. It was a pretty easy decision. If I made a list of all of the things it did that were good and all…
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…
From Chabad.org: Naso in a Nutshell (Numbers 4:21–7:89) The name of the Parshah, “Naso,” means “Count” and it is found in Numbers 4:22. Completing the headcount of the Children of Israel taken in the Sinai Desert, a total of 8,580 Levite men between the ages of 30 and 50 are counted in a tally of…
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….
Well this is something. I’m sitting in front of my house on a chair staring at either a possum or a porcupine who just walked right into the front area of my house and parked himself in the gap in the concrete where the cat sleeps and rolled into a ball. I have evicted him…
From Chabad.org: Behar in a Nutshell. Leviticus 25:1–26:2 The name of the Parshah, “Behar,” means “on Mount [Sinai]” and it is found in Leviticus 25:1. On the mountain of Sinai, G‑d communicates to Moses the laws of the Sabbatical year: every seventh year, all work on the land should cease, and its produce becomes free…
Well here is the thing, they decided to make marijuana legal in Germany. Here is what Google will get you if you can’t figure out how to do it yourself. What does this mean? It means that the children of the original Nazis have decided to decriminalize something that is a very pleasant thing to…
From chabad.org: Emor in a NutshellLeviticus 21:1–24:23The name of the Parshah, “Emor,” means “speak” and it is found in Leviticus 21:1.
