    Nobody Wants to Work

    I don't really quite know about that line, about things be 'worse' before. A number I heard, is that only 40 percent of millennials, who are now middle-aged, actually own houses. I think that property ownership had to be generally more secure, for working class people in most other times in...

    Samson: from a comparative mythology perspective

    Well there is Fenrir and Loki, that were bound, and I'm sure other gods were as well, probably in the Roman or Greek pantheon. Probably many other stories, broadly, describe the capture of gods when magically some their power is stripped, the world over

    If chicken strips are flimsy and soft are they bad?

    Depends on your taste, I like crispier food if possible.

    Songs that affect your emotions

    Well as a musician, and music listener, I guess I think of it in terms of energy, that you're either trying to create, or harvest, out of the music. And the energy in the music, if it's good music, and pretty much any music can be good, is there to move a person. Over the past couple years...

    On the Importance of Moon

    Well it's an important force. In a recent throw of the tarot, I had drawn the moon, and this caused me to think a little bit about it. I guess as it stands right now, I think of the whole card as representing a sort of layered image of the head, mind, brain, or something like that. And moon...

    A big brother life

    Drones too. I saw the police testing one out in a empty parking lot, last month. I bet those can see a lot of area

    Marionnete, predestination, free will

    One could imagine two things: one is myself, and the other is a marble statue of myself. One is rock, and one is me. Inside the rock, there is still reality, folding upon itself, and changing. But in me, there is something that is more like a witness, and director. Or is there? For if there be...

    Who are you, really? Your friends on RF want to know.

    What is your idea of perfect happiness? Balanced contentment, seems the best for me to try for. Realization seems to be a big part of it, though production/accomplishment is another What is your greatest fear? Being a servant to false fear; letting fear rule me. Having fear overpower...

    Marionnete, predestination, free will

    If we don't know the future, but have no free-will, then our not knowing the future seems like it is somewhat of an illusion - what is there in you, to imagine often, that many things could happen. The past is what there is, that can't unhappen, and the future is to happen. So what is there, in...

    Pentagon confirms suspected spy balloon over the U.S. 'right now'

    It comes back again to this concept I mentioned earlier, about the presence of 'metaphysical weakness' in politics. It's not about the balloon. It's about a category of the 'gaslighting' effect, where instead of sanity being questioned, it is power.

    Six dead in California home shooting, including 6-month-old baby and her mother

    Yeah, well it all just seems to indicate there some problem deeper down in society, that what you describe happens. There are complicated things going on beneath the left-wing's reactive focus, on this issue, imho. Though I don't have the energy to explore all of that right now

    Six dead in California home shooting, including 6-month-old baby and her mother

    Or so begins more of the political mismatched jigsaw puzzle frustration that characterizes most of modern politics. But the leftist approach to this issue I find possibly less correct, in that unlike other issues it looks at, this one seem totally reactive to effects, as opposed to looking...

    Pentagon confirms suspected spy balloon over the U.S. 'right now'

    @Stevicus You know what I think is kind of weird, is this whole thing about blinken canceling his trip because of this. And I've posted about this before, in different posts, about how the political social atmosphere seems to hinge heavily on a sort of mind-reading, subconscious power game...

    Wind chill. Sensationalism?

    Well the way it works, up here, is that if there is no wind, and it's -5, compared to if it's -5 with wind, well that is like night and day, kind of. And the whole problem is, these windchill things often come with warning messages, that it will 'cause frostbite in a certain number of minutes.'...

    The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) framework vs. e.g. Jordan Peterson

    I'm ignorant on how certain things work in that field, but isn't there, or shouldn't there be a way to qualify his title as being a 'conservative leaning psychologist? I end up listening to a lot of peterson podcasts, and though I do disagree with ideas, I don't think the guy is dumb. I also...

    Young couple who danced in viral video handed lengthy jail sentence in Iran

    Our leaders haven't exactly projected the best optics in terms of harmony, with too much infighting etc. And the american people, those lower in the hierarchy, don't seem to have a lot of 'ownership' on various levels. The populace rents property basically, has no right to health care, and the...

    Young couple who danced in viral video handed lengthy jail sentence in Iran

    Well, I think all the analysts who were hoping that world trade would change their governments have a point. I mean, we really did stimulate the economy in China with all this trade, we must have. Even to the point where I think it cost america in terms of manufacturing. And Russia as well, with...

    Biden Thinks Climate Change More Threating Than Nuclear War

    The whole thing would look like the everglades, kind of like it did, I'm fairly sure, in certain eras of the dinosaur ages. Only this time when the dinosaurs re-evolve, they will integrate with the AI technology we left behind. To what end, I am not sure. I guess it's what we get for messing...

    Young couple who danced in viral video handed lengthy jail sentence in Iran

    I understand that they are trying to presently annex a country, and that is very bad. But I think that there is threshold, that both iran's and russia's governments have broken, beyond which the notion of relative morality might break down. It flat-lines on the morality graph, beyond a certain...
