Mad World

I've stopped participating. It's false hope.

Pressure is quiet this morning. Yesterday..felt like it might break something.

Didn’t though.

It’s not about how many times you fall..it’s about how many times you get back up.

Volcano Topic

- Formation

It just seems mountains look like formation on surface either sideway or top of past potential volcano activity or something like that, then over time become "erode" by weather, making some these sharp or shapes in that manner.

Word to the radicalized..there are 350+ million Americans

You’re outnumbered. 1000s to 1 and we’re still pretty sore about 9/11.

I hope if heaven is a real thing, we at least get to pick our heaven realms, and they aren't picked out for us, yknow?

I remember the first time I played WoW..I thought..this must be what Heaven is like..

weird rant, I guess.

if you can read archetypes and grok the zeitgeist, you will know the outcome of most any event you put the time into enveloping. you don't even have to have a huge amount of knowledge, just enough to be seeing the situation with accuracy. I'm not saying you'll be able to predict future events, but you'll have a pretty high success rate at determining how present events will ultimately play out.

The reason it's harder with the zeitgeist to purely go into the future is zeitgeist is a very PRESENT sort of thing. To project the zeitgeist itself onto the future is guessing the zeitgeist before the zeitgeist has made up its mind. human emotion drives zeitgeist and it's the most unpredictable thing in the world. zeitgeist art is based on the spirit of the times, the present time, not the past time, not the future time.

Using the zeitgeist in the present, all the necessary information is available to you. It's interesting. It's an arte.

you can do a zeitgeist for the past, but it's a separate endeavor. obviously the spirit of the times in the 70s is very different as a zeitgeist than the early 2000s. this seems obvious, but people for some reason maybe don't see the utility of knowing the zeitgeist.

Zeitgeist is a place to start, it's an instant direction. it's not your proof, but it'll get you there.

the very first day of the attack oct 7th - I looked around the zeitgeist a bit and I was like, okay, israel is about to counterattack, and they're gonna be hammered on the international stage almost immediately. I knew there was no way the majority will side with them, and I'm not sure why anyone would think differently - zeitgeist on the international stage is very sensitive to the invaded country, and no matter what israel did or how conservative they were, they were gonna be BLASTED.

Now that we live in a VERY GLOBALIZED society, this is a very different thing than it EVER was in history - the zeitgeist. our consciousnesses receive information about anything going on in the world instantly, from any country, all simultaneous. think about how that changes the zeitgeist, compared to the days where people were passing letters on horseback.

How big is a zeitgeist in the horse days? Very small, impossible to ascertain as a global construct and it would only be able to be ascertained within the community you're a part of.

This new stage of history, there is nothing more important than the information war. For this, the zeitgeist is an incredible advantage. People have patterns of how they play out behaviors, events, opinions - and so do societies.

Surveillance capitalism certainly is the same concept applied to different ends - huge amounts of data being crunched to ascertain the zeitgeist in a very precise means, but not necessarily an accurate means. That's another rant. What I will say: This technology is not fair. The level of manipulation will never be something you can educate the population away from. The tech will always have more capabilities than the human it is manipulating.

But you don't need any of that for the zeitgeist. It's faster to assess it on the fly.


think about this:

the gaza war - names gaza as the protagonist
the ukraine war - names ukraine as the protagonist.

from the very first day, they were already calling it "the gaza war" - before an invasion even happened. There was no way in hell the international community, with its mindset evoking the ukraine war, was going to side with the israeli invaders. hamas even predicted this shit in advance, and the information war was PART of their campaign.
it may not be solid from the get go, but it can absolutely give you the correct starting point in a sea of information.

Well..if this is a simulation we might all, already be here.

Imagine all the horrible places we could have been born..or may be born in the future.

We owe it to our future selves..and possibly past selves.


We all might just be sleeving into bodies, from some other place and time.


Reading about the ancient NDE accounts yesterday, was food for thought.

You watch Soul yet?

;p maybe I propose a possible game development (maybe open source software?) incorporating both notions?

edit: adapt both notions

nuh uh. I have stopped watching TV/movies entirely. it's podcasts lately. BUT. It's on my list I swear. lol. I think the last thing I watched was an episode of the baking show two weeks ago.

If it's a simulation, I sometimes wonder, if the reality we get, is the common denominator reality so to speak...like the combined average of everyones consciouses

I find NDEs fantastic...it ought to be a reason for scientists to look further at the non material. but so far, has not

Sure. Choose your own adventure afterlife. Maybe we’re the organ recorders for qualia.

There isn't much, in the way, of this currently reality being heaven or hell..

I'd imagine it's very much both those things, all the time... Just depends on who you're looking at reality through..

Which lenses did you grab in the twilight hours..

Good morning.

“The Turtle exists. The world is a flat disc. The sun turns around it once every day, dragging its light behind it. And this will go on happening, whether you believe it is true or not. It is real. I don’t know about truth.

Truth is a lot more complicated than that. I don’t think the Turtle gives a bugger whether it’s true or not, to tell you the truth.”
-Terry Pratchett, Small Gods

I did a bit more research, and while I’m not sure it is the same thing, there is a long standing superstition that if your nose itches, people are talking about you.
