Originally written & then banned from my OK Cupid profile in Spring/Summer 2017, titanically extended Midsummer 2019:


****HOW.****

Do you have some fresh new pinkcliterature you want red? Do you think that you can work your beautiful body of Art in tantalizing ways, & want to have for yourself my dreamy, beautiful, & divine Lovestory coupled with your most-dreamy, most-beautiful, & most-divine Lovestory? Together at last? For the first time & for the ever time?

Then Let’s enjoy ourselves in the best of ways & pop the cork; ‘to much Romance.’

Hold on, tho, I’m not done: Do you have some much-loved ‘lip — ‘lit — (typo – where’s the backspace key????) — do you have some much-loved ‘lit that is herself already sopping wet with Romance, but you still want this hot clit rit — dyslexia, maybe there — ‘lit crit? Clit rit?

— Are you a ‘lit critter?

— You, the masterpiece, will be appraised thru the roof, because I am a Lover of Loves, & I will treat High Art as High Art . . . & inlay such royal material with the diamonds we want for such stately beauty.

Maybe you have undiscovered Art; many greats began having people throw their own cherrytomatoes at whot, in the end, was Loved most.

I am worldwise & learned enough to recognize that 2, even 3 rotten eggs do not the dozen spoil. It’s just bad luck, or whatever it is. So even if it has rained on your parade, I still know that that runny mascara — under those big fat coke-bottles — themselves under some rushed, rushed, rushed ponytail ****can be of the most-beautiful, earnestly lovable, maybe-even-better Lovestory artist of all****. You are not out of the race, you are not out of the winners’ circle. Dry those drops, dear. Dry those drops.

 

 

This is whre I cum in.

For all four Lovestory riderses, I am chock full of pluck & chipper. Remember Fabio on those Romance fiction covers? Everything you want? That’s whot you DESERVE AND REQUIRE for your next Lovestory. Ovid, Casanova, I red them all. I Love Love.

Maybe in your lovestories, chipper hard Sex prevails. Sensuousness. Drive. Emotion. Desire. In scientific terms, I have four testicles’ worth of testes. My penis is infinite.

& Beautiful too.

Swear to Women (Women!) that I am getting some computer glitches while working on this pic – I’ll tell you about my up loads another time – for now let’s focus on the fact that I cnt ride too hot, butt i love to ride: {link to pen pic}

 

(I aver with all my credibility that that is an un-doctored picture & one I didn’t set up. No picture editing; just whole-picture black-&-whited & then whole-picture hued. My middle-finger to my ring-finger lengths are also large & in charge.)

This & a condition I was medically diagnosed with: “satyromania”… the male version of being a nymphomaniac –
this condition is caused by Women, & cured by Women – in a vixen circle. Means big trouble in bigc’literature ridings we can do everywhere & everywhichway & everyt———-

Allow me to cup my hands & whisper an i-d-ya in your most-sensitivst of ears:

I am a rider. I cnt ride too hot. Butt I Love to ride. I feel this makes me a great American rider. ^_XX.

So, this is for all those Love riders out there: A’one’two’three’faWR!:

I have good jeans. The jeans get into the ink. {sic}

The ink flows nicely from the pen, & the pen is nice & long & well-built, it feels good to ride with, in your hands, & whotnot. Very, very, very safe to chew on the cap. It fits in your pocket(s). You can ride with it most anywhere =D…

With my jeans-ink, ink-pen, & again, just a huge & magnificent pen, we can mouth, orate, ride, or even just run our fingers along your beautiful, incredibly seductive body of Art. In terms of our riding, we will make Love.

A Beauty such as Women possess requires a lot of work – **this I know** – & I have all the dedication I need.

I would love for you to mouth, orate, handle, ride, just **breathe in my ear** **my own** body of work.

‘Butt don’t quit’, tho, as they say in lovespeech… because we can perform ‘double-penning’ on your body of Art — some call it ‘double entendre’. Sementicly, this means *penning you innuendo n your ‘lit.* That’s ‘lit’rally what double-penning iss; ‘lit’rally. Think “double-penning.” This is all part of being a punning linguist, puusi lingering —

— (@#$(@#$@#! I tried to make a joke — I cnt.

Upward & onward.

There’s also a fun much-loved number we can do called 69. 69 in terms of rhythmitic is both orally — in unison — or perhaps to the knowing – I could shock you, by my being upsidedown — while you made “oral history” with me in this beauitful mathematics; because of the “upsidedown” part of the orations, this unison oration is known in my mathematical rhythmitic as the number 69. This beauitful number we perform… is a delight of delights – quite the delight for both man & woman. It is one of my personal flavorites to enjoy. *Goes looking thru his library.*

Whairsabouts where we? Aw: yes: *What *ABOUT* oral skills?* Much ido is made of a person’s ability to perform orally. Men are not as gooed at performing orally, but certainly it is an out-of-body experience, so to speak, to get the luckiest of luckies, a women’s beautiful performance.

Let’s take another look at me again:

& My pen – so big it’s a funnie: but it rides & can take dictation, too:

Remember my pen is safe to chew on. It’s a Dic (missspelling?? I cnt spell. Granted there was a “cnt-spelling bee”: I wood wims ‘its.), & it has my jeans in it, (the jeans get in the ink). Feels good to hol’ on to, tooo… {link to pen pic}

So loosen up your belt & get comfortable; I want you to really get into it, now:

My looks & oral skills make performing orally for you fun.

 

Get in touch. Sleep on this. Get in touch. Doesn’t this all just say *BEGGING FOR IT*? you know what that means — GET IN TOUCH &– WELL, GET IN-TOUCH.

Alik I say: I have acquired the taste for the ****catient**** work of a punning linguist, & my performing oral has me insatiably **lingering** well over your ‘lit’s content… If you’re not familiar with the ‘lingering’ method, look it up; it’s on Unban Dicktionary. I am a ‘dicter’, to make a metaphor, of the lingering method who is a dedicated reeder of your ‘lit – again – orating in a very **in-touch** way – until your ‘lit’s amazing climax. My jaw is no stranger to oration – a bony stubbly thing; & maybe what’s more – I suck hard when I perform oral for you – mixing up the again-look-it-up lingering oratory, with my stubbley/bony jaw, & again, because i just suck & suck & suck — dedicatedly on your ‘lit tho, for minutes then tens of minutes, maybe an hour, maybe longer, until that Niagra Falls Dam of suspense BLOWS free, into our work’s climax, flowing thru my mouth, me taking it in like a insatiable whore. Maybe you could have two climaxes – why not three? When my lips go numb I can just run my fingers thru your ‘lit until I’m ready to reed again. Left hand’s fingers, right hand’s, perhaps the middle. I have the dedication, the Love, & the DESIRE!!! for orally performing even the most suspenseful cliterature floodbreakingly & sonorously.

Get in touch, &– get in touch. Sometimes when an idya just screams *PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE* – I get in touch with that person to work our idya together. Naps — “nap attack!!” — often do me good, when all else fails.

So alright, cntinuing.

I would love to ride you doubly, innuendo, backwards in a mirror.

A ‘nother personal favorite way to ride: orally titillating you while dedicatedly working your ‘lit with my huge, hairy hand to its fullest, most-tremelous flow[1-1], & truly amazing climax.

Your pure excitement flowing, running your legs in the afterglow of this latest ‘lit sensation, & happily I imbibe, in turn all your masterpiece offers, till the last drop of milfulous goodness.

The End.

Err wait now, wear were we?

Oh yes. What about riding bare tit-illation, you say, AND in your ‘lit?

(Oo I made a word joke!

****Titters.****)

No problem – I can pen both of these – My Beauties – & reacharound & fingerpaint you a blossoming pink flower at the same time. The Beauties are Beautiful, in my imagination right now. Precious.

I would Love, I would Love, I would Love.

I want to Love’ with you — Lovestory in full — let me tell you, beautiful female Lovestory & Romance & Sex riders of this world!!!! I want to Love’!!!! I feel like I am on ovocaine from thinking about this!!!!

“Joe,” you ask, “How can we work together on this epic Lovestory which is always (right?) in Spring?”

Where there’s a will there’s a way.

Where there’s a will there’s a way.

Start here: Do you Love People? Are you a social butterfly? Well-mannered? Are you high-society? Are you Loving & caring & kind? *WHO* are you favorite people? Do you have any passions? What do you like to talk about? Have you ever been part of the making of a good Lovestory? What do you do instead…?

Share with me, some, who you think about & what you think about. Who are your favorite people – what is your favorite stuff – which are your favorite things? =D Who do you love musically? How about in movies? Read books? Like websites? Talk about things? Do you love / excel in anything?

I love all kinds of people & tons of stuff & lots of things.

Try me.

How about how good-looking your body of Art is. Does your masterful Artwork have a beautiful face, & do you have a little space for penning myself in? Maybe your body of masterful Artwork has wonderful bouncy titillation? Does it have a full, delightful Beauty on the back 9? Do you have good style?

I am entranced by such beauty. (See my poem here, from Summer of last year.)

One desirable trait is this favorite: your being very Sexual, for riding Romance/Lovestory. Are you a ‘nymphomaniac’? At least Sexually charged? Have that sexual drive? Enjoy sex & sexuality? Do you make the most divine sounds when you’re having Sex? Do you Sexualize everyday conversation? Re: This: can you orally perform well, as well as when riding / being rode? Do you care for scents & lingerie? Do you have any hawt pictures/videos/records of yourself? Have any favorites saved of your desirable hot guys? Do you ********WANNA********?

How fun are you? Joke? Play? Stay loose? Like guys & Sex & music & fun?

Are you charming? Have a ‘Princess’ Charming air to you? Are you high-society? Regal? Cultured? Again: a social butterfly? A flirt? ^_xX

A nymphomaniac?!

^_xXXX

Let’s dream up something new – just us two. Let’s co-author a wonderful Lovestory! “I don’t care how you get to me, just get to me…”

If the apresented sounds good – get in touch!!!

Happy Hearts & Happy trails My Loves! “We do!”

·Joe·’====D’·V·[1]

[1]: 6-t-9 eyes are better than 2 – all these glasses are why I ride so truly gooed. Cum ride together with me. Let us ride to our hearts’ content. “Honey, cum to Florida.” Florida is a peninsula & *I know* the cunt of the cunt of America – but not yet the cunt of the cunt of the cunt of America – but I will! *Slams buzzer.* I will!

The End… Of The Beginning…

‘V for me!’

=D See you around!! =D

Perhaps “missuse of the foot'” here; if you like a nice foot’, possibly missused:

First things first: Cats love me. ?

OK =D :

I’m about Love, Dating & Relationships, You?, Conversation, Love, People, Poetry, Love, Politics, Love, Love, Love, Literature, Life, Love; & Maybe You A Lot.

Free love, sex positivity, hugs not drugs, natural living . . .

About me:

I am a tenacious, powerful & alive 34-year-old male.

I am a German-Dutch-Bohemian-Swedish-Irish American. A mutt.

*Women are my #1 desire.*

I am about romance in a serious way: On the dating-&-relationship site GirlsAskGuys.com, I rank in the top 10 internationally on their main measure (MHO %), but not officially because I answered only 50 questions & they evidently require more to be officially ranked. (My MHO %: 43%: https://www.girlsaskguys.com/user/joevalentine – Top MHO % of users worldwide: https://www.girlsaskguys.com/xper )

  • I think pink.

I am sensitive & loving & caring & kind; I think even nice.

I am also affectionate.

I love people & have spent hours a day hanging out & chatting with people; I know you, as a person, & knock down the door trying to make it good for you. I am communicative.

I do love taps when I talk.

I am also appreciative.

I am positive & responsible.

I am playful & fun, almost to a fault.

Hugs not drugs, Women are my drugs & my medicine.

Mature; I have been well-trained & well-nurtured by Women in my life.

I want YOU – not just sex..

I sort of eat, sleep, & breathe woman.

I love Females.

I would actively provide self-defense, safety, security & justice etc, to you, & have for girls I have not yet dated just recently.

Do not underestimate that which I have, I would say to offenders against you or me.

I like going for a romantic getaway or letting you have me-time.

I have 10 lucrative business ideas, should we choose that walk of Life.

(About the Hugs not drugs: I came up with ‘being heart-edge:’ If you wanna do ‘something’ together, I will maybe-maybe say Yes. I probably will say yes to using a natural stimulant if you asked me to, or the like. If you wanted us to use some drank, I would (if we can arrange a sober / not too drunk ride.)

We can also go to a river & have a picnic, go out to eat, go to a concert, go to a movie, or stay in & watch Netflix & chill. We can do it all.

One-time rated 9.4 on Hot-or-Not with a weak picture my good friend put on.

I shave & trim myself daily; I exercise 3 times a week; & I enjoy healthy, tasty food.

I wear vetiver.

When I was 10 or 11 my comprehension tested about 3rd year college(15th grade). When I was 25 I was made head of the largest & best live philosophy discussion-room in the world.

Random favorite words currently: play, magnanimity, mystique, bunnyflippin’, coney.

Slightly fatt, ‘poochie’ cheeks (on your face) are almost better than muff or your bazingas, I believe.

I love you as a person, even if we’re not the ones for each other.

I think the purpose of Life is to Love, & a couple other things.

“Life is a feast full of starving fools. Dig in.”

Lastly, why do I have all this information? Because I am a student of Love & Life, in that order, & Love is basically the most crucial thing to me.

Joe.

POETRY SECTION:

New Poem {:Summer 2018}

A new ‘prose poem:’

“Tactility**”

It comes to me like beautiful ♫usic – Erato


To be /in touch with/ Beauty, Love, The Erotic, The Feminine: /The Aesthetic/, wherever it reposes… beating heart…

To believe in, in the hinterland, the Holiness of snow white; to savor tranquility, & gentleness… in a soft evening’s snowfall; & to behold the soft tufts of cuteness and fun from bunnies kicking up puffs of fluffy snow, chasing tail in couples together…

& To grip with thine soul the flesh of thighs… to feast upon the cleavageous bearing of breasts… to devour carnivorously the other parts… & to gorge & gorge wholly upon the living breathing Gorgeos erotick lustee…

To know this Beauty: to feel these Truths: to rub with thine whole body us: forms of Goodness, “tactilly…

That is to conjoin with the Earthly Love, and Beauty – The Erotick & The otherworldly Feminine –

The witch’s coventry found practicing these tactile arts. The rivers found running the otherworldliness of her face – the union of –

The bunny.

The prophetess of Love…

The savior of your Earthenly Love.

The wishful, longful secret-tears diary of a teenager of 16…

A nupital innocence of a curly hair latching on her safety belt trustingly for a drive…

To eat the ambrosia of the pure poetry of the head-over-heels language of Lovers…

… The ambrosia of the pure poetry of the head-over-heels language of Lovers…

To touch the texture of empathy engendered by the best expressions of your soul for the goddess of your engagement…

To warmly nudge the swing ‘neath the branch, under the canopy of stars on a picnicked beach – ‘Kiss me now… kiss me forever… Amen.’

Amen.

hey i think it was clear,

we could go out to the patio if you please

we go out to the breeze,

i hum ‘when the moon hits your eye . . .’,

she looks happy.

ok my favorite thing is leonard cohen,

he’s just like a crow . . .

she says yeah jeff buckley used to date liz frazer but now he’s just a ghost

a long pregnant silence ends

with let’s

we go back to her apartment

& we watch a favorite pick of hers

& the night is beautiful

it was itself a motion picture

{outro:}

{guitar:} doo-bee-doo-bee-doo-bee {2 or 3 female voices:} she-bop! she-bop!

Fun trivia:

I stopped watching TV, drinking pop & playing video games when I was 15, only coming back to TV during the political cycle in 2009-2010 or so to watch cable news. “Much happiness,” yes, quitting said things.


Me in a philosophy chatroom again:

Fundamentally, we must focus on 3 things – Truth, Goodness, & Booty. Assthetics is the philosophy of Booty, in all its forms.

I am reminded of a foreign teacher I had who said “We have beautiful beautiful beetches” where she is from.

That was said philosophy.

I am now building my empire.

Prossibly via business.

Like I said, I have about 10 lucrative business ideas, should we choose that walk of Life.

Politics is equally an option, & I am gifted in philosophy & language, helping such a political life.

Lastly I am considering writing 4 or 5 books too: The most essential one is is “The Book Of Court”, about “dating & relationships” (I have about 100 pages of this); & the second is “My,” about the Lovers in my life, in a concrete nonfiction way. I have found my voice in that already & have some concrete pages written up in the style. The third is “Concrete,” about real stuff in a “G.A.N.” tone. The fourth is my biography. & The fifth is “The Training,” a philosophy book.

I got this idea plural years ago, & tonight committed to teaching this very lucrative investment strategy:

From me (Joe Jerome Valentyn – nicknamed “lakitu“) in the forum, century twenty-one year twenty-three November eighteenth:

{central U.S. time CST am 01:00’18”} <ratbeing_> Still almost an hour until it gets light.
{central U.S. time CST am 01:00’38”} <lakitu> wow

{central U.S. time CST am 01:22’47”} <ratbeing_> Well, a Benthamite solution to trolley problems would involve counting the bodies.
{central U.S. time CST am 01:37’43”} <ratbeing_> wlak
{central U.S. time CST am 01:38’07”} <lakitu> was going to say something –
{central U.S. time CST am 01:41’13”} <lakitu> from my earlier years – in part meaning in #forum – I here forward will teach to study Kelly strategy ratio investment amounts to recognize how much to invest in each investment – in the abstract meaning for investment I describe – scenario . . .
{central U.S. time CST am 01:41’20”} * ratbeing_ has quit (Read error: Operation timed out)
{central U.S. time CST am 01:43’49”} <lakitu> for a investment scenario where the risk is 75% chance to win 2.3X gain, the Kelly investment ratio is 55% from your total wealth – this is the mathematically sound amount to investment your money, per the Kelly investment strategy.
{central U.S. time CST am 01:47’40”} <lakitu> (* for a investment scenario where the risk is 75% chance to win 2.3X gain, the Kelly investment ratio is 55% from your investable amount – this is the mathematically sound amount to invest from your investable amount, per the Kelly investment strategy.)
{central U.S. time CST am 01:54’15”} <lakitu> you calculate that using the Kelly investment equation: f*= (bp-q) / b {dash}
{central U.S. time CST am 01:54’43”} <lakitu> this is *ABSTRACT* investment.
{central U.S. time CST am 01:55’22”} <lakitu> that has and is not limited to money: time for example is another quantity we have, spend, invest, waste, & the like
{central U.S. time CST am 01:58’15”} <lakitu> {dash} (continuing:) where b is payoff ratio, p is chance (at winning), & q is (risk at losing)
{central U.S. time CST am 02:00’34”} <lakitu> (* {dash} (continuing:) where b is payoff ratio, p is chance (at winning), & q is risk (losing))
{central U.S. time CST am 02:01’00”} <lakitu> in our example, the payoff ratio was 2.3, the chance at winning was 75%, & the risk was 25%.
{central U.S. time CST am 02:06’37”} <lakitu> when you look at this, you find chance at winning is the subtractive inverse (meaning one quantity is x, the other quantity is 1-x) of losing (if you have a 75% chance to win, you have 25% chance to lose) – & thus since you can figure risk to lose from chance to win, you only need chance to win – & thus you students who will follow this will study the two quantities: payoff ratio (2.3(X) for example), & chance to win (75% chance to win
{central U.S. time CST am 02:06’37”} <lakitu> for example) – when you take those two quantities & figure them in the Kellly investment strategy equation: f* = (bp-q) / b, you get **how much from your investable amount to invest**: **55%** for example… the key to kelly battling back contra losses is it invests **a proportion**;
{central U.S. time CST am 02:06’55”} <lakitu> you will each time have more to invest – at the calculated ratio – to battle back with
{central U.S. time CST am 02:08’11”} <lakitu> this – the kelly investment strategy – is ****the mathematically proven soundest investment strategy for maximal growth payoff/chance investment scenarios.****
{central U.S. time CST am 02:13’23”} <lakitu> thus – you will make tables – likely via a computer program as I have done – for f* when b (payoff) = 1, 1.25, 1.33… & their combinations with p (chance to win) = 50%, 55%, 60%… where you and/or the computer program solves for f* (the ratio of your investable currency (money for example) to invest) = bp-q / b ****& you commit these kelly investment ratios to rote memory to use at your discretion in Life****

{central U.S. time CST am 02:15’38”} * Grax has quit (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
{central U.S. time CST am 02:17’16”} <lakitu> remember: the kelly investment strategy ****mathematically proves the soundest amount to invest for *maximal growth** in payoff ratio, chance to win (& risk (percent) to lose) investment scenarios
{central U.S. time CST am 02:21’51”} <lakitu> if you have a chance to win, & a payoff amount (3.0X for example) then you can compute the mathematically soundest maximal growth investment amount (“f*”; 55% for example) for each & every case – & deciding for example how much time to invest is a very common thing in our life – now you can get it down to mathematically valid scientifically sound calculated amounts for maximal growth investments

@joevalentyn
(cont.) this new currency unit is not fiat currency, nor de facto currency: it is time – manhours – people’s lives they can share with you.
Time as a currency is something everyone has, & that still each person’s worth – including for other people – is different. Time (cont.)

(cont.) is a better currency than gold & silver & a better currency than fiat currency like the dollar or euro . . . & better than a new Japanese computer currency. It is perhaps the purest currency . . .

In this dialogue I am lakitu. This dialogue is spontaneous; the first & fourth parts are slow, the second & fourth parts are the reason I post this:


{02:46:10 pm} <lakitu> shopping for coffee online in-between things the last couple days… kind of a new modern twist on coffee fandom for us coffee aficionados: sorting thru 20,000 brands to find the one, true, best whole-bean pouch our vested belief in like, Google coffee-blog search-result #3’s recommnedations can buy us… sort of like a medallion hunt or something,

{02:46:10 pm} <lakitu> that elusive, great coffee taste we’ll be drinking maybe a couple times a day. is it in Key Largo Much Grounded whole-bean Sumatra, San Jose’s Felicimo Arabica blend? we will never know, there’s only 20,000 brands to try. but I still will feel strongly: this tasty cup is probably basically the best the money can buy, haha.

{02:51:43 pm} <lakitu> a small-town coffee blogger accepted a small sugaring of free beans, monetary kickback, sister-site links for his produced confession of the best bean having been found, 10,000 of us over time scan over his site lol

{02:57:24 pm} <lakitu> I’m being more comical, in my mind, than critical. these little peccadilloes being pointed out; it’s like making fun of your little sister for her dress being way hiked up funny – some minor chuff in her style that is more risible than anything.

{08:02:42 pm} <kblom> hi john

{08:03:19 pm} <JohnGuru> it’s been a somewhat arduous day here. Gray, at times windy, and rain rain rain, lots of rain. Sinus congestion, adding a certain amount of labour to the general dreariness

{08:04:05 pm} <JohnGuru> the nice thing about this hour is that it brings a sense of normalness

{08:04:40 pm} <JohnGuru> routine suggests everything is okay/. By having a routine, we are encouraged to think the world will go on forever

{08:04:44 pm} <LionClan> I use Alka Seltzer Cold and Flu for nasal congestion. Doesn’t spike your blood pressure like some antihistamines.

{08:05:07 pm} <JohnGuru> oh, I think I may have that, LionClan. I will try it

{08:05:14 pm} <JohnGuru> I bought it and then never opened the package

{08:06:35 pm} <JohnGuru> yeah

{08:07:07 pm} <JohnGuru> I use Diphenhydramine. It’s cheap when bought in the generic form, by name

{08:07:24 pm} <JohnGuru> and the main ingredient of most antihistamine OTC’s

{08:07:32 pm} <LionClan> Please stop.

{08:07:47 pm} <JohnGuru> what? why?

{08:08:24 pm} <LionClan> If you tell your doctor, do you know what he would tell you? He would tell you please stop

{08:08:36 pm} <JohnGuru> oh I don’t think so

{08:09:22 pm} <MartyMcFly> newtonian clockwork universe

{08:09:41 pm} <kblom> they had a cartoon character ‘Speedy’

{08:10:37 pm} <JohnGuru> Newton’s clockwork universe dominted science & philosophy for 250 years

{08:10:56 pm} <JohnGuru> but then it passed away when science shifted the ground to statistics

{08:11:19 pm} <LionClan> Newton told the world about his solar observations, in particular the apparent position is behind the actual position

{08:11:27 pm} <MartyMcFly> logic and order in the universe is comforting

{08:11:33 pm} <JohnGuru> the average person is still living in the shadow of Newton’s image

{08:11:47 pm} <JohnGuru> sure it is

{08:12:39 pm} <JohnGuru> statistics is used to explain why the universe looks deterministic ;)

{08:13:17 pm} <JohnGuru> it’s so — counterintuitive

{08:14:18 pm} <JohnGuru> Marty, if you would do the honors tonight. Lead the discussion. I can take a break

{08:14:44 pm} <JohnGuru> I think you can do it

{08:15:21 pm} <MartyMcFly> thanks, what topic should we do?

{08:15:47 pm} <JohnGuru> free will

{08:15:52 pm} <JohnGuru> or big bang theory

{08:16:08 pm} <JohnGuru> or ethics, what is the foundation of ethics

{08:16:29 pm} <MartyMcFly> order vs chaos

{08:16:37 pm} <JohnGuru> automation. Are we digging our collective grave with robots?

{08:16:45 pm} <JohnGuru> sure, order vs. chaos. I’m fine with that

{08:17:06 pm} <MartyMcFly> bbiab

{08:17:48 pm} <JohnGuru> maybe order is a particular flavor of chaos

{08:17:53 pm} <MartyMcFly> need a bite

{08:17:54 pm} <kblom> I believe kant would disapprove of the role of probability and statistics in modern science

{08:18:11 pm} <JohnGuru> kblom lol, you think so?

{08:18:31 pm} <kblom> john yes

{08:18:33 pm} <JohnGuru> that’s not much of a speculation, kblom mydear

{08:19:17 pm} <JohnGuru> Kant’s work was very much in the direction of finding the ground of things. He wanted the apodictic

{08:19:57 pm} <JohnGuru> I even bought his thin little book, the Ground of ..

{08:20:10 pm} <kblom> the apodeiptic

{08:20:38 pm} <JohnGuru> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Groundwork_of_the_Metaphysic_of_Morals

{08:20:38 pm} <zhan> Groundwork of the Metaphysics of Morals (1785; German: Grundlegung zur Metaphysik der Sitten; also known as the Foundations of the Metaphysics of Morals, Grounding of the Metaphysics of Morals, and the Grounding for the Metaphysics of Morals) is the first of Immanuel Kant’s mature works on moral philosophy and remains one of the most influential in the field.

{08:24:02 pm} <nine> hey JohnGuru

{08:24:09 pm} <nine> sorry, kinda crazy here

{08:24:31 pm} <nine> i watched that Logical positivism video today

{08:24:35 pm} <nine> i didn’t understand any of it

{08:24:37 pm} <JohnGuru> oh yes?

{08:24:41 pm} <JohnGuru> oh no

{08:25:03 pm} <nine> well, i’m not that good at understanding a couple of brits saying all that stuff

{08:25:31 pm} <JohnGuru> damn. I wish I could help, but I have no idea what trips you up

{08:25:35 pm} <nine> can you nut-shell it for me?

{08:25:55 pm} <nine> i mean, he seemed to be talking about some book he wrote and how the world took it

{08:25:58 pm} <nine> i got that i guess

{08:25:59 pm} <nine> a little

{08:26:04 pm} <JohnGuru> logical positivism started as a movement to clean up philosophy

{08:26:15 pm} <nine> i understood already that they want everything to be proven

{08:26:22 pm} <nine> like… scientifically, i guess

{08:26:23 pm} <JohnGuru> that’s right

{08:26:34 pm} <JohnGuru> nothing should be held to be true unless it could be demonstrated

{08:27:08 pm} <JohnGuru> if I wanted to assert that that woman (pointing) and I are married, there should be a way to demonstrte that it must be true

{08:27:22 pm} <nine> a piece of paper maybe

{08:27:27 pm} <JohnGuru> obviously, holding up a marriage certificate would not do it, because that’s a claim by authority

{08:27:32 pm} <nine> does that really prove anything? right

{08:28:05 pm} <nine> i dunno what it even means to “be married” anymore

{08:28:14 pm} <nine> something legal

{08:28:25 pm} <nine> something that can affect reality by rule of law

{08:28:38 pm} <JohnGuru> on the other hand, the act of marriage does not make any changes in the body, so there’s no way to determine marriage by physical inspection

{08:29:05 pm} <JohnGuru> thus, logical positivists would determine that marriage is a meaningless concept, and they would root it out of our discourse

{08:29:15 pm} <kblom> positivism is like the meaning of a proposition is its method of verification

{08:30:10 pm} <JohnGuru> *nods*

{08:30:47 pm} <JohnGuru> nine, that’s an example of the main reason why logical positivism failed. It sounded good in principle, but it ws like falling on your sword to cute a head cold

{08:30:49 pm} <JohnGuru> cure

{08:31:07 pm} <nine> heh

{08:31:15 pm} <JohnGuru> it nullified too much of the world we live in

{08:31:15 pm} <kblom> john russell and wittgenstein were both great logical posivists

{08:31:20 pm} <nine> yeah, even the guy didn’t seem to have much faith in it

{08:31:23 pm} <nine> the interviewee

{08:31:29 pm} <JohnGuru> right

{08:31:52 pm} <Ragtime^> That was a great speech.

{08:32:00 pm} <JohnGuru> kblom, I know everybody says wittgenstein was a positivist, but I don’t agree. I don’t think he was. He had a strong mystical streak in him

{08:32:00 pm} <nine> grr

{08:32:01 pm} <nine> brb

{08:33:01 pm} <JohnGuru> he was eminently capable of describing the world as a logical positivist would see it, and that’s mostly what he did in the Tractatus, but he also broke with it in that same writing

{08:33:17 pm} <JohnGuru> for example,

{08:33:20 pm} <JohnGuru> “6.41 The sense of the world must lie outside the world. In the world everything is as it is, and everything happens as it does happen: in it no value exists–and if it did exist, it would have no value.” — Tractatus

{08:34:05 pm} <JohnGuru> so you might ask how Wittgenstein thought value entered the question, if it’s not “in” the world

{08:34:57 pm} <JohnGuru> and there’s also

{08:35:00 pm} <JohnGuru> “6.372 Thus people today stop at the laws of nature, treating them as something inviolable, just as God and Fate were treated in past ages. And in fact both are right and both wrong: though the view of the ancients is clearer in so far as they have a clear and acknowledged terminus, while the modern system tries to make it look as if everything were explained.” — Wittgenstein, Tractatus

{08:35:49 pm} <JohnGuru> “5.43 Even at first sight it seems scarcely credible that there should follow from one fact p infinitely many others , namely ~~p, ~~~~p, etc. And it is no less remarkable that the infinite number of propositions of logic (mathematics) follow from half a dozen ‘primitive propositions’. But in fact all the propositions of logic say the same thing, to wit nothing.” — Tractatus

{08:36:01 pm} <JohnGuru> dismisses mathematics with one wave of the hand

{08:36:49 pm} <JohnGuru> okay, sorry. wb MartyMcFly

{08:36:51 pm} <nine> i don’t understand that last statement

{08:37:10 pm} <JohnGuru> nine, ~ is a symbol meaning ‘not’

{08:37:25 pm} <JohnGuru> so you have p, and not not p, and not not not not p

{08:37:34 pm} <nine> pppp

{08:37:42 pm} <JohnGuru> *nods*

{08:38:57 pm} <nine> i dunno if i like philosophy anymore

{08:39:16 pm} <nine> is there any of it that makes sense?

{08:39:45 pm} <JohnGuru> well, it all makes sense to me

{08:40:04 pm} <Ragtime^> nine: If you start with Plato, it makes sense.

{08:40:08 pm} <JohnGuru> there’s a lot I disagree with ..

{08:40:17 pm} <nine> i should probably just stick to what’s in front of me.

{08:44:02 pm} <nine> :)

{08:44:10 pm} <nine> valet wants to read it

{08:45:32 pm} <JohnGuru> who is Domnul Tesh?

{08:46:18 pm} <nine> Domnul means “mister” in romanian

{08:46:25 pm} <nine> TESH is my initials

{08:46:27 pm} <JohnGuru> oh!

{08:46:37 pm} <nine> i was in love with a romanian for a long time

{08:46:42 pm} <JohnGuru> that’s clever, so you have a nom de plum without revealing your name

{08:46:50 pm} <nine> hehe

{08:46:52 pm} <nine> yeah

{08:46:52 pm} <kblom> never heard of Domnul Tesh

{08:46:57 pm} <nine> HE is ME

{08:47:14 pm} <nine> i was so disappointed to find that I was not the only Tesh out there

{08:47:24 pm} <nine> there are a couple of women with that name, and one man.

{08:47:28 pm} <nine> (so far)+

{08:48:27 pm} <JohnGuru> I’ll see if we can keep it simple, nine

{08:48:45 pm} <nine> keep what simple?

{08:48:47 pm} <JohnGuru> there’s no need to push here into professional philo

{08:48:57 pm} <nine> huh?

{08:49:08 pm} <JohnGuru> well, you said you don’t like philosophy

{08:49:18 pm} <nine> well, i wouldn’t go that far

{08:49:27 pm} <nine> i loved the stuff about kant’s glasses

{08:49:31 pm} <nine> and a lot of other things here

{08:49:48 pm} <nine> i probably was exaggerating earlier

{08:49:54 pm} <JohnGuru> good :)

{08:50:05 pm} <nine> :D

{08:50:29 pm} <JohnGuru> I’ve been glad that there’s at least one channel regular who likes phiosophy

{08:50:38 pm} <nine> hah

{08:50:42 pm} <nine> i think there’s more than one

{08:50:49 pm} <nine> there’re?

{08:51:23 pm} <JohnGuru> well, I know kblom likes science

{08:51:41 pm} <nine> science suxors

{08:51:44 pm} <nine> heheh

{08:52:11 pm} <nine> ok, i’ll stop trolling now

{08:52:14 pm} <JohnGuru> I respect science, but it’s a very shallow subject

{08:52:20 pm} <nine> oh?

{08:52:38 pm} <nine> i mean, i think so, too, but probably for different reasons

{08:53:03 pm} <JohnGuru> it only goes skin deep. It attends to the visible, the demonstrable. Like we were saying about logical positivism, it tries to eliminate everything else

{08:53:31 pm} <nine> Mmm

{08:53:51 pm} <JohnGuru> Richard Rorty realized that science doesn’t necessarily exclude mysticism. He had a great lecture on youtube about the compatibility between religion and science

{08:54:48 pm} <nine> sounds like that dude and that other dude who are always arguing arguing.

{08:54:58 pm} <JohnGuru> yeah

{08:55:01 pm} <nine> i hate that my memory is so bad

{08:55:05 pm} <nine> you know who i mean?

{08:55:08 pm} <JohnGuru> mw roo

{08:55:10 pm} <JohnGuru> me too

{08:55:12 pm} <JohnGuru> no

{08:55:22 pm} <nine> imma find it

{09:00:36 pm} <JohnGuru> Dawkins?

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> brb

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> no

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> one’s kinda religious

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> the other not

{09:00:37 pm} <JohnGuru> I think I know who you mean

{09:00:37 pm} <JohnGuru> Christopher Hitchins and Ben somebody

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> they’re always arguing on youtube

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> nah… i’m still looking

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> one starts with a J

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> the other is religious

{09:00:37 pm} <JohnGuru> I’ve forgotten his name. He irritates the spit outa me, though

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> jordan peterson

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> and the other guy is religious

{09:00:37 pm} <JohnGuru> oh him

{09:00:37 pm} <JohnGuru> jordan peterson is interesting on religious topics but otherwise useless

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> i liked his assessment of how monkeys became men

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> or something

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> i should shut pu

{09:00:37 pm} <nine> up

{09:00:37 pm} <JohnGuru> oh yeah?

{09:00:37 pm} <kblom> every Ted Talks I heard on NPR was utterly devoid of content

{09:00:37 pm} <JohnGuru> lol nine

{09:00:37 pm} <JohnGuru> kblom, I gave up on TED talks long time ago

{09:00:37 pm} <JohnGuru> my time is up

{09:19:39 pm} <Fixion> hey all, just thought I’d drop in and say hi anyway, since I’m clearly too late for the usual JG fiasco :)

{09:19:48 pm} <LionClan> hi Fixion

{09:19:58 pm} <Fixion> (note I was kidding about the whole fiasco thing)

{09:19:59 pm} <LionClan> Just missed him

{09:20:24 pm} <Fixion> so how’s things?

{09:20:52 pm} <Fixion> Valet of course not its IRC how would I see you?

{09:20:53 pm} <LionClan> hi zwiiii

{09:21:18 pm} <LionClan> Don’t let anyone make you give up metaphors

{09:22:08 pm} <Fixion> LC I find it can be enjoyable taking them literally instead at times

{09:22:44 pm} <LionClan> Speak literally when you are talking to someone that has a different native language.

{09:23:02 pm} <LionClan> That works very well.

{09:23:40 pm} <LionClan> Then you are fluent in English

{09:24:33 pm} <LionClan> The statement was meant to be provocative

{09:25:45 pm} <LionClan> Flemish Knights moved to Scotland and became Barons

{09:25:46 pm} <Fixion> the ground when you’re doing a handstand? (although scientifically speaking thats technically untrue given that up is relative to a centrifugal (or was it centripetal?) force…

{09:26:38 pm} <Fixion> Flemish? it sounds like perhaps you need to clear your throat?

{09:27:56 pm} <LionClan> Eggs butter milk cheese are good English, and good friese.

{09:29:56 pm} <Fixion> the only thing I remember about dutch is its kinda similar in some ways to German but definitely opposite with its V’s and W’s… Germans have VolksVagons and Dutch have WolksWagons… or something like that..

{09:29:58 pm} <lakitu> & I myself, in telling this, did not avoid being a man: he & I both think of the big wins – she is looking for signs of a steady spigot more than a huge power-generating waterfall for her longer-term interest– there is an old joke about sex: men are firefighters & women are lawyers– but of course this can be quite the joy in a woman’s life, a man’s lavishing her with attention, eager & almost overeager to perform for her cravings,

{09:29:58 pm} <lakitu> desires, interests, even piqued curiosities – & this leads to one of the center rubies of my book, this dialogue will feature in: to answer the call of Love, which is this: to drink deep of the fountain of youth of immortal courting, & never leave that heaven of your Love.

“That Was Big Of You!!” ⸻ Joe Valentyn’s Idea For Student Immersion in Real-World Emergency Testing of Mettle & Conscientiousness In Classrooms

Feature Spread




Here’s a public birth of an immersive-testing school concept that had been developing in me for quite a number of years – the first part is more social ambience where the 2nd & 3rd parts get into the real childbirthing:

Without further ado: this is me, Joe Valentyn – “<lakitu>” – in a philosophy forum working thru my idea for edification, not education, thru “immersive testing” in schools:

{13:34:11 pm} <fattratt_> Ok, we can talk about Murphy’s law and Betteridge’s law in the abstract.

{13:35:35 pm} <fattratt_> Betteridge’s law: “Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no.”

{13:36:14 pm} <fattratt_> Murphy’s law: “Anything that can go wrong will go wrong”

{13:39:34 pm} <fattratt_> I’m not fed up with covid. Indeed I am still rather covid-obsessed.

{13:46:09 pm} <lakitu> hey lauraaah. recognize you from the other week ☺ welcome.

{13:46:15 pm} <lakitu> hey fattratt

{13:46:24 pm} * lakitu just has a little time to chat

{13:48:19 pm} <lakitu> (mm, new-coffeemaker coffee.)

{13:49:13 pm} <lauraaah> Hi :)

{13:50:17 pm} <lakitu> =D

{13:50:33 pm} <lakitu> great to have a new chatter around here (who isn’t a troll!)

{13:50:47 pm} * chipmonk__ has quit (Read error: Operation timed out)

{13:50:53 pm} <fattratt_> I like to discuss covid while eating kale salad.

{13:51:07 pm} <lakitu> so, welcome.

{13:51:33 pm} <lakitu> (aw yeah! my coffeemaker counts as a espressomaker. ex coffeehouse patron/worker here)

{13:51:58 pm} <lakitu> (acquired the taste for espresso, & the ‘like. =D)

{13:52:48 pm} <lauraaah> I don’t like coffee

{13:52:50 pm} <lauraaah> Or tea

{13:53:01 pm} <lakitu> really?

{13:53:10 pm} <lakitu> are you straight-edge?!

{13:53:17 pm} <lakitu> – or is that too personal?

{13:53:28 pm} <lakitu> maybe that’s too personal…

{13:54:51 pm} <lakitu> I was having no psychoactives except for chocolate – but solidarity with people led me to pick up coffee again.

{13:56:07 pm} <lauraaah> I just don’t like the taste

{13:56:11 pm} <lakitu> ah.

{13:56:40 pm} <lakitu> works for me.

{13:56:59 pm} <lakitu> (your not liking their taste.)

{13:57:16 pm} <lauraaah> I like the smell of coffee tho

{13:57:48 pm} <lakitu> for me who does, this Moka pot makes very tasty espresso/coffee.

{13:59:25 pm} <LionClan> I set up a coffee house in Broad Ripple, it was quite an experience

{13:59:44 pm} <lakitu> yeah – you said that. Turtle something?

{14:00:47 pm} <LionClan> Turtle Island from a book of poems by Gary Snyder

{14:02:14 pm} <LionClan> Across the street from Karma Records, best record shop from the age of vinyl.

{14:02:16 pm} <lakitu> I remembered the name.

{14:02:44 pm} <ControlFreq> Hello Friends!

{14:02:56 pm} <LionClan> CF

{14:02:59 pm} <lakitu> hey Freq

{14:03:01 pm} <ControlFreq> Hello LionClan!

{14:03:05 pm} <ControlFreq> Hello lakitu!

{14:03:09 pm} <lakitu> a popular record store around here just closed.

{14:03:57 pm} * fattratt_ sips beeer

{14:04:26 pm} <lakitu> a few of my friends work at record stores. they tell me e.g. Record Store Day is coming up – in a week I think

{14:04:34 pm} <lakitu> a little less

{14:04:38 pm} <lakitu> I think it’s the 12th.

{14:04:49 pm} <LionClan> When we were running Radio Free Naptown, Karma would send us a crate of Records every week, if we’d just tell them what we like

{14:05:17 pm} <lakitu> in/near Indianapolis– right?

{14:06:10 pm} <LionClan> Are commune included several electrical engineers, more brains than your average underground radio

{14:06:47 pm} <LionClan> do you remember Nixon

{14:07:44 pm} <LionClan> When he was around anti-war messages were banned from the radio, and the FBI track down anti-war and anti-draft protesters

{14:08:59 pm} <LionClan> The same Authority they used to do that, is still being used to infiltrate protests.

{14:09:18 pm} <LionClan> So I’m not sure anything is changed

{14:10:45 pm} <LionClan> In radio, the talent and the salesmen go to completely different parties.

{14:11:00 pm} <LionClan> We’re not the same species, or some such

{14:11:34 pm} <lakitu> I’m more interested in well-roundedness, than just bRAINz these days. ‘like I was saying about schools not evaluating you for people skills, & creativity, vs. math/reading/etc.

{14:12:58 pm} <lakitu> I’m abstaining from politics LionClan. you’re free to discuss your political ideas obviously, but I’m just not party.

{14:13:41 pm} <LionClan> You asked, if you want shorter stories just say so

{14:14:01 pm} <lakitu> ha

{14:14:47 pm} <lakitu> I asked if “Radio Free Naptown” was in/near Indianapolis.

{14:15:17 pm} <LionClan> Where is Radio free naptown was a popular question for a while

{14:15:41 pm} <LionClan> Is very hard to tell, like impossible, because we are clever

{14:16:04 pm} <LionClan> Their best estimate, was in a tall building downtown

{14:16:55 pm} <LionClan> We weren’t broadcasting FM, we were broadcasting shortwave.

{14:17:33 pm} <LionClan> The repeater picked up the short wave and rebroadcast it FM. From a tall building downtown.

{14:19:00 pm} <LionClan> Our intent was broadcasting to the Northern third of the townships in Indianapolis, and the many wealthy people north of there

{14:21:04 pm} <lakitu> & you were a DJ on this, you’ve told us.

{14:21:21 pm} <LionClan> We sampled coffee beans from all over the world, concluded everyone had tropical Mountain grown Arabica on their top five list

{14:21:48 pm} <LionClan> There were several DJs, some of them are still working as DJs

{14:23:23 pm} <LionClan> We had a similar sampler of hashes from all over the world, and each of them has their charms.

{14:23:28 pm} <lakitu> IRC– Undernet– is a little similar to a pirate radio station

{14:23:46 pm} <lakitu> altho it’s legal

{14:23:51 pm} <lakitu> IRC – Undernet.

{14:24:04 pm} <lakitu> but public communications.

{14:24:21 pm} <lakitu> of course this is DJing of the fittest

{14:25:01 pm} <lakitu> orate well & people will (hopefully) tune in.

{14:25:33 pm} <lakitu> except that IRC has been decimated, not least after what happened to the last major network.

{14:26:18 pm} <lauraaah> https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/E5CImyxK/bitmoji-20180504091451.png

{14:26:38 pm} <lakitu> ok…

{14:27:42 pm} <LionClan> The Ku Klux Klan took power in American politics in the 1920s and held on to it for 40 years

{14:27:52 pm} <lakitu> nice having you here.

{14:28:52 pm} <lauraaah> Slightly early for bed. I want some chicken chicken mein first

{14:31:44 pm} <lakitu> me, I’m putting down my first espresso shots & going to try to choreograph a whole day, here.

{14:32:47 pm} <lakitu> but not literally choreograph =D since we just met I’ll make it clear haha

{14:33:06 pm} <LionClan> Rancilio, the Italian cappuccino maker made espresso so fast it was already brewed before the oils got moving

{14:33:32 pm} <guerro> hi LionClan

{14:34:10 pm} <LionClan> No oils meant no acid, so we drink it chilled by the quart

{14:34:21 pm} <LionClan> hi g

{14:35:28 pm} <lakitu> I hung out with some coffee enthusiasts – coffeeshop owners, burr grinder designers, on #freenode, & they recommended a Gaggia brand machine for home espresso, if you’re serious enough about it

{14:36:49 pm} <lakitu> burr-grinder designers.

{14:36:56 pm} <lakitu> (*)

{14:39:07 pm} <lakitu> they said the grinder was more important, surprisingly.

{14:39:17 pm} <lakitu> getting at least a burr grinder…

{14:43:24 pm} <LionClan> It should be finely ground yes

{14:45:31 pm} <lakitu> but for example, you could write symphonies in school, & still get all F’s. or be the people’s choice for most personable dudette in your school, & not have your report card needle even move at all

{14:45:49 pm} <lakitu> for scoring, overall

{14:47:08 pm} <lakitu> you could defend against bullies for special needs kids, the disadvantaged – you might even be WORSE OFF report-card -wise.

{14:48:36 pm} * lakitu was going to school to be a teacher, but dropped out of college for it…

{14:50:20 pm} <lakitu> might be a Love genius, they could give you straight C’s. that’s four examples

{14:54:16 pm} <lakitu> & on that – say you had a “goodness” / being ethical / being moral / etc score: Conscientiousness’s spiritual battle is more like physical education in that you have to actually perform these pull-ups, push-ups, etc – you can’t just tick a box that says “I know to do 10.”

{14:55:28 pm} <lakitu> you have to perform at being good rather than just in a made up example be able to navigate to the right answer. it takes courage to resist bad influence, etc….

{14:59:18 pm} <lakitu> like the differencce between ticking a box that says “Write beautiful music.” & writing beautiful music. it takes more than just knowing to do it. actually doing it requires gifts & techniques beyond average ability levels.

{14:59:29 pm} <lakitu> beyond the average level of abilities.

{14:59:58 pm} <lakitu> ‘like the difference.*

{15:04:25 pm} * Fixion has quit (Quit: Going offline, see ya! (www.adiirc.com))

{15:05:54 pm} <lakitu> this is a little b****y of me to recommend, but imagine a school that had drills, except you didn’t know they were drills: e.g. someone has broke in; war has broke out; there was a chemical spill nearby – etc – again, pushing beyond the boundaries here, but: imagine that even teachers weren’t told yet whether it was real or not, & they had a emerge

{15:05:54 pm} <lakitu> ncy discussion with their class – the brave would be separated from the unbrave, the just from the unjust, etc –

{15:06:42 pm} <lakitu> & that could tell us– we’d tell them we were testing them afterward– who is really made of mettle.

{15:17:09 pm} <lakitu> right – but did you know it was a drill, LionClan?

{15:18:01 pm} <LionClan> Incentive courses to put the idea into your head, you imagined nuclear war whether you thought this was it or not

{15:18:12 pm} <lakitu> ok, so they told you it was real.

{15:18:33 pm} <lakitu> ‘We’re having a fire drill today, I think at 2:45.’

{15:18:41 pm} <LionClan> Well you know very well they were telling us the threat was real

{15:18:42 pm} <lakitu> those are standard now.

{15:18:46 pm} <lakitu> haha

{15:18:58 pm} <lakitu> – haha

{15:19:26 pm} <LionClan> The modern version of that is the box cutter Arabs are going to get you, we’re supposed to believe that’s a threat

{15:20:16 pm} <ControlFreq> The biggest threat to the national security of the United States flies under the Confederate battle flag.

{15:21:05 pm} <LionClan> 1925 the Ku Klux Klan March from the capitol to the White House with hundreds of Confederate battle Flags

{15:21:29 pm} <lakitu> I’m talking about drills where you don’t reveal they’re real or not – a test, a…

{15:22:13 pm} <lakitu> an immersive test.

{15:22:23 pm} <lakitu> an immersion.

{15:22:32 pm} <lakitu> or immersive test.

{15:22:33 pm} <LionClan> The Confederate Battle Flag is a symbol of the Ku Klux Klan oh, not a symbol of the Confederacy

{15:23:18 pm} <LionClan> In the Confederacy the Battle Flag was used as a shroud for Fallen Soldiers

{15:24:21 pm} <ControlFreq> I do not see it as a racist symbol. I see it as a symbol of traitorous, treasonous bastards who rose up in arms against the lawful government of the United States. I took an oath to protect that government, and I do not like those who embrace its symbol.

{15:24:28 pm} <LionClan> If you’re wavering one of those around you’re supporting the Klan, which are murderous conspirators

{15:25:44 pm} <ControlFreq> When did the state legislatures in the South start flying the Confederate battle flag from thier state capitols?

{15:27:25 pm} * lakitu is resting his political loins; you do what you should.

{15:27:32 pm} <lakitu> –politically.

{15:27:44 pm} <LionClan> Let’s focus on the history of the Confederate Battle Flag in Washington DC. Confederate States of America never waved a Confederate Battle Flag in Washington DC, the Ku Klux Klan has waved thousands of Confederate battle Flags in Washington DC

{15:28:24 pm} <LionClan> In Washington DC, the Confederate Battle Flag is a symbol of the Ku Klux Klan.

{15:29:02 pm} <ControlFreq> The Confederate battle flag became a symbol of White supremacy on June 2, 1964. About a half dozen state legislatures hoist that from from their capitols the day LBJ signed the Civil Rights Act

{15:29:48 pm} <LionClan> The Ku Klux Klan marched hundreds of Confederate battle Flags down Pennsylvania Avenue from the capitol to the White House in 1925

{15:30:57 pm} <LionClan> You cannot distance the Confederate Battle Flag from racism in Washington DC that’s not possible.

{15:31:38 pm} <lakitu> to continue: gradually students would realize they are already immersed in several live, real-world crises that are just farther away, slow-drip leaked thru the media, or otherwise outside of their field of experience, that they could take up the causes of & try to battle in the name of.

{15:32:02 pm} <ControlFreq> I assign both values of the one symbol to anyone who embraces it. Treason and racism

{15:32:20 pm} <LionClan> Yes

{15:32:31 pm} <lakitu> yes to who LionClan?

{15:33:17 pm} <LionClan> That’s meta

{15:33:31 pm} <lakitu> ha

{15:33:40 pm} <lakitu> I take it you’re repsonding to Freq

{15:34:19 pm} <lakitu> – e.g. human trafficking

{15:36:21 pm} <ControlFreq> I think human trafficking is to broad a brush. There needs to be daylight between people who spend their life savings and beg to be smuggled somewhere and people who are kidnapped and transported for labor or sexual slavery.

{15:36:43 pm} <lakitu> sex slavery.

{15:36:49 pm} <lakitu> e.g..

{15:37:24 pm} <lakitu> is what I was going to continue with.

{15:37:32 pm} <ControlFreq> Please do

{15:37:40 pm} <lakitu> ((thanks.))

{15:45:13 pm} <lakitu> there are abducted women, teen girls, around, even in your state, who must have brave, just men & women taking up arms & technologies to free them – risking ourselves for investigations, for searches, even in firefights – to free them from their living nightmare they can’t escape, alone, or haven’t been able to yet – yet we’re shrouded from this re

{15:45:13 pm} <lakitu> ality; this immersive testing would be like smelling salts to awaken us to the fact that our tranquil peace can be upended by emergency – & there are people at most any given time suffering from one such emergency or another.

{15:45:13 pm} * guerro has quit (Quit)

{15:45:51 pm} <lakitu> people who could use our help, directly or indirectly.

{15:46:09 pm} <lakitu> but in a very real, not-just-text-in-a-Twitter.com-post way.

{15:46:41 pm} <lakitu> “BIO 302’s been shot!” that is not something you easily forget

{15:46:57 pm} <lakitu> depending on where you take the potential scenarios there.

{15:53:55 pm} <lakitu> as a limiting threshold, there is only so vigilant we ought to be in this Life; but I think it would be good to have a public dialogue on how vigilant we should be re the problems the world collectively – as communities – as groups, as families – as individuals – wrangle with at any one time. it is important to hear from people who have suffered, w

{15:53:55 pm} <lakitu> ho are suffering, to have a full circumspect perspective, for this.

{15:57:31 pm} <ControlFreq> lakitu…the solution is not for the hoi polloi to arm themselves and lead a rescue. The solution is to coordinate with law enforcement and find out what we can do to make a difference.

{15:58:02 pm} <ControlFreq> The idea of vigilante justice grants that same authority to anyone else who believes they have a righteous cause. C.f. January 6

{15:58:10 pm} <lakitu> well that’s what I was expressing above – to join forcces to– no

{15:58:27 pm} <lakitu> I was not advocating that. I was saying to work e.g. with law enforcement,

{15:58:37 pm} <lakitu> to rescue sex slaves.

{15:58:53 pm} <lakitu> to rescue these people.

{15:59:06 pm} <lakitu> applying for a job, etc.

{15:59:22 pm} <ControlFreq> Please distinguish this statement from advocacy of vigilante justice:

{15:59:25 pm} <ControlFreq> brave, just men & women taking up arms & technologies to free them

{15:59:36 pm} <lakitu> there was a context to that

{15:59:42 pm} <lakitu> a very large context

{16:00:03 pm} <lakitu> that’s a sentence fragment

{16:00:57 pm} <ControlFreq> It’s inflamatory

{16:01:24 pm} <lakitu> you actually are countering the countering of this, now – I was thinking of the Federal Bureau of Investigations as I wrote that

{16:01:33 pm} <lakitu> the Central Intelligence Agency

{16:01:49 pm} <ControlFreq> CIA cannot engage in domestic law enforcement

{16:01:51 pm} <lakitu> & you are now calling joining the F.B.I. to rescue e.g. sex slaves “inflammatory”

{16:01:57 pm} <lakitu> I didn’t say domestic

{16:02:16 pm} <lakitu> I am not snared in that technicality

{16:02:37 pm} <lakitu> Interpol.

{16:02:57 pm} <ControlFreq> lakitu…you frequently fall into the trap of using words that codify a clear, well-formed thought, but the words you choose convey a totally different inference in the listner’s mind.

{16:03:37 pm} <lakitu> I guess you have complaints about the above, first?

{16:04:27 pm} <ControlFreq> If you trying to recruit law enforcement, that’s great. I am a skilled critical reader and that was not in the same ZIP code as the impression I formed in my mind.

{16:04:49 pm} <lakitu> mm. how’d you score in your reading skills in school?

{16:06:08 pm} <ControlFreq> I did not attend kindergarten. In the first weeks of first grade, I was evaluated as a third grade reader. Both my parents were teachers (Mom, elementary; Dad, jr high and high school.) My Dad was trained by Jesuits.

{16:06:17 pm} <lakitu> for anyone else who thought I’m taking special measures in schools to sensitize kids to e.g. human trafficking, to put them into a pipeline to primitive vigilantism / vigalante justice,

{16:07:14 pm} <lakitu> ok. in elementary school I was appraised as being a 14th-grade level reader / overall comprehension student

{16:08:31 pm} <lakitu> — I of course would be thinking of our best methods to rescue abducted teenage girls, especially when I’m talking about educational formalization of this kind of training.

{16:08:44 pm} <lakitu> especially when I’m talking about educational formalization like this.

{16:08:48 pm} <lakitu> (‘like this.)

{16:09:30 pm} <lakitu> (–I of course.*)

{16:10:00 pm} <lakitu> overall-comprehension.*

{16:10:34 pm} <lakitu> to inspire them to join the F.B.I., et al, ControlFreq.

{16:10:49 pm} <ControlFreq> That is a noble effort.

{16:10:54 pm} <lakitu> I’m sorry if there was a miscommunication otherwise.

{16:11:35 pm} <lakitu> I will also not limit how you can help

{16:12:51 pm} <lakitu> in that miscommunication, we cannot be reactionary & rule out printing up flyers, teaching classes, making websites, or any other helpful approaches that are outside of the F.B.I., say – or that work with, etc.

{16:14:27 pm} <lakitu> II will say here ‘that work with’.

{16:14:55 pm} * MartyMcFly ([email protected]) has left

{16:19:58 pm} <lakitu> but in that statement I was meaning situation rooms of F.B.I. workers tracking down abduction victims’ holding places & making busts, etc

{16:21:04 pm} <lakitu> (the statement that sentence fragment is in.)

{16:21:15 pm} <ControlFreq> You do not want to work “outside the FBI.” You want to work in concert with federal, state and local law enforcement in ALL cases.

{16:21:27 pm} <lakitu> Freq: what am I doing now?

{16:21:43 pm} <lakitu> is the above idea generating bad?

{16:21:50 pm} <lakitu> – I do not think so. many do not, I bet.

{16:22:12 pm} <lakitu> if you teach a class on sex slavery in the world–

{16:22:35 pm} <lakitu> there are too many examples against to require me to give more.

{16:23:03 pm} * chipmonk__ ([email protected]) has joined

{16:24:45 pm} <lakitu> maybe you could criticize – in some scenario – the F.B.I. for not doing ENOUGH— again, in some scenario– in your class, conceivably; that is not an impossible combination of conditions.

{16:26:04 pm} <lakitu> it’s not a major point – you thought I– for whatever reason– was talking about something other than F.B.I., et al, arms & technologies, when I explained to you that is who I had in mind as I was writing that.

{16:30:56 pm} <lakitu> that was just a miscommunication between us.

{16:34:40 pm} <lakitu> you could also do ‘immersive testing’ for slower moving disasters, ‘like say environmental pollution. you could create a pretext to tell them– say, anecdotally mention during a teaching module– that some local company (who’s maybe in on it) is dumping stuff in the river, we’re not sure what it is, but it shouldn’t be a problem. more money to make

{16:38:38 pm} <lakitu> of course, nothing in excess. Solon.

{16:38:58 pm} <LionClan> How many times do you suppose the FBI has been used to do dirty tricks for the president?

{16:39:19 pm} <lakitu> “dirty tricks” – wow.

{16:39:37 pm} <xControlFreq> Hoover used the FBI to wreck Kennedy

{16:39:38 pm} <LionClan> See I know about dirty tricks personally

{16:39:57 pm} <lakitu> Lion – I’m just saying that’s helluva topic.

{16:40:10 pm} <lakitu> that’s a helluva topic.

{16:40:59 pm} <lakitu> the sum subterfuge of the F.B.i. for the Presidential administrations.

{16:41:13 pm} <lakitu> or sum subterfuges.

{16:42:25 pm} <LionClan> The FBI infiltrates protests

{16:42:55 pm} <LionClan> The CIA infiltrates protests as well

{16:43:32 pm} <lakitu> F.B.I., I was writing.

{16:43:42 pm} <SiouxBricket> Apparently, China has infiltrated both the CIA and th FBI, so nobody talks to them anymore

{16:43:57 pm} <LionClan> FBI infiltrates when they want to prosecute protesters, the CIA infiltrates when they want to discredit protesters

{16:45:40 pm} <lakitu> I’m on leave from politics as a genre of culture, SiouxBricket; you are free to discuss it however best tho

{16:46:38 pm} <lakitu> as a field.

{16:47:30 pm} <LionClan> A popular theme Here is not not jokes

{16:48:01 pm} <SiouxBricket> And it seems that both California and Nevada have run out of water.

{16:50:11 pm} <LionClan> If you think the absence of a thing is a sort of thing then that would be a substantial conversation. If you aren’t that deluded you would see clearly that “not politics” is not a topic, and just as clearly that “not physics” is also not a topic, and people that suggest either have made no contribution at all.

{16:51:37 pm} <LionClan> California and Nevada have been mining water, pumping water out of the ground faster than it accumulates.

{16:51:39 pm} <lakitu> …re my thread: you could issue these semi-strength beguilements to them, once you had gotten down the proper training method to train teachers to use on students with: “I’m gonna have to report you.”, to a student saying he’s going to stand up to it, speak up against it – “Don’t make me dock your grades for insubordination.” etc

{16:52:16 pm} <lakitu> to challenge them

{16:52:26 pm} <lakitu> – test them.

{17:00:27 pm} <zhan> Part of “Immersive-Testing” Formal-School Idea by Joe Valentyn (lakitu) –

{17:00:37 pm} * Bu||Fr0g croaks

{17:01:04 pm} <lakitu> went on about it for the first time above

{17:01:18 pm} <lakitu> grabbed the scroll, if you want it

{17:12:13 pm} <lakitu> that was from a just a coupla minutes ago.

{17:18:15 pm} <lakitu> …you could even extend this further, to work settings: testing who would have the spiritual marrow to speak up.

{17:19:44 pm} <lakitu> could be used to see who was conscientiousness enough to get a promotion – with the increase in their authority, including their responsibility, accountability, maybe even culpability.

{17:20:25 pm} <lakitu> honeypots. etc.

{17:21:09 pm} <lakitu> –depending on how you felt about ‘sting operations’ that is – but there’s other ways you could do it short of full traps / setups.

{17:27:00 pm} <lakitu> …there is a conversation device used by, say, women, to (try, anyway, to) suss out men’s guilt – they joke about something she suspects the man of being guilty of – if he’s not guilty, it shouldn’t be much of a problem: he can joke back or otherwise aver his innocence, or if he is guilty, it can be a very economical litmus test. I would say *due

{17:27:00 pm} <lakitu> to the complexity of how a man can be smeared, etc*, this is not a certain test, but better women can probably come to terms with the plight or plights of men re where it would screw them up, & come to terms a lot / lots, such that in skilled enough hands, many women do put this joking/baiting test to good use.

{17:28:32 pm} <lakitu> women stay on top of men, in relationships largely, it seems. men have more bruteness, some might say have more bravery too– but this is where I am too close to an misandrist to propose my ideas as a model. I will just say that women stay on top of men, in relationships, it seems most often to me

{17:28:43 pm} <lakitu> (as a man– I say this as a man.)

{17:28:59 pm} <lakitu> men tend to be stupider, more brutish, clumsier

{17:29:15 pm} <lakitu> when it comes to social life, at the very least.

{17:29:16 pm} * ControlFreq hands lakitu a slightly narrower brush

{17:29:38 pm} * lakitu dots the “i” in social life with it.

{17:29:47 pm} * lakitu dots the “i” in “social life” with it.

{17:30:28 pm} <lakitu> when it comes to romance & social life, at the very least.*

{17:31:52 pm} <lakitu> & less conservative.

{17:32:06 pm} <lakitu> (in the philosophical sense of conservative.)

{17:32:20 pm} <lakitu> ((not (necessarily) political.))

{17:36:06 pm} <lakitu> I am too close to a misandrist.*


To be honest, this idea was too fun, & I’d Love to come back to it soon – & I plan to do just that, designing more examples & strategems teachers could use to put students’ big hearts to the test with how “big” they truly are . . .

{14:17:56 pm} <lakitu> probably the simplest example of my idea (in the dialogue I linked for you ladies & girls above) is to leave a wallet in the halls, or outside in front of the school, with enough money in it to make it somewhat tempting to keep & not return. even a twenty-dollar bill say in the halls, would work.

{14:24:33 pm} <lakitu> …a really good one would be to arrange some link, or something, where (I’m thinking in high school, or higher) ‘a very popular girl’s sexted picture’ has been acquired, except that it hasn’t–

{14:25:10 pm} <lakitu> & because it’s not with her permission,

{14:25:42 pm} <lakitu> it would be like a honeypot for this immersive mettle, conscientiousness testing I am proposing.

{14:27:36 pm} <lakitu> (mettle & conscientiousness immersion tests.)

{14:29:06 pm} <lakitu> you could reimagine it a few ways. e.g. there was a party, she got drunk, someone took a “hot!!”, violatory picture of her

{14:35:01 pm} <lakitu> (for anyone not familiar with “honeypots” – the espionage term: from Kaspersky.com: “One honeypot definition comes from the world of espionage, where Mata Hari-style spies who use a romantic relationship as a way to steal secrets are described as setting a ‘honey trap’ or ‘honeypot’. Often, an enemy spy is compromised by a honey trap and then forced to hand over everything he/she knows.

{14:35:01 pm} <lakitu> In computer security terms, a cyber honeypot works in a similar way, baiting a trap for hackers. It’s a sacrificial computer system that’s intended to attract cyberattacks, like a decoy. It mimics a target for hackers, and uses their intrusion attempts to gain information about cybercriminals and the way they are operating or to distract them from other targets.”)

{14:36:19 pm} <fattratt_> Old trick.

{14:36:25 pm} <lakitu> old trick.

{14:36:51 pm} <fattratt_> Biblical story of Judith I think.

{14:37:28 pm} <fattratt_> And Verdi’s Aida perhaps.

{14:37:40 pm} <fattratt_> But I forget the details of both of those stories.

{14:42:19 pm} <lakitu> I mentioned doing this at work, but definitely a parent or maybe daycare provider could use this for edification, too

{14:47:55 pm} <lakitu> (- I obviously am not saying this is the only way to edify us, it is just a rather b****y way whose experience of immersion could lead to high-level performance performance & testing, than say 1-3 lines on an exam sheet. like a sport can require more performance, in physical education. so would this, but in Life, in conscientiousness, in mettle, etc.)

{15:02:20 pm} <lakitu> You could confabulate a false rumor about a young female teacher that she had had some compromising sexual experience (or drug, or whatever), & see who spreads it before authoritatively announcing it was an act to see who would spread a false rumor

{15:07:10 pm} <lakitu> …to be honest, you could do such a thing with your faculty too – the same sort of thing.

{15:07:16 pm} <lakitu> re doing this as a business.

{15:08:53 pm} <lakitu> – ‘ see what the rumor becomes on the wrong end of the telephone game.

{15:11:58 pm} <lakitu> – “she had sex with two students & there’s pictures!” it could become– & again, you’d need to issue a longlasting authoritative capstone denial, maybe with some kind of documentation beforehand outlining that it’s just a rumor, we’re doing this to test you, etc., that students could check out after & see, oh, so & so knew about this beforehand, there was documenting that this was a honeypot beforehand, etc

{15:12:32 pm} <lakitu> you could even hire a special teacher maybe to do this

{15:12:45 pm} <fattratt_> good night & may your dog walk with you !!!!!

{15:12:50 pm} <lakitu> lol

{15:15:31 pm} <lakitu> like a double teacher, who acts like a new, naive, young, perhaps attractive enough female teacher, but who is trained to overcome such a rumor setup – in on it with faculty, & the ‘like.

[16:09:37] <lakitu> {14:54:16 pm} <lakitu> & on that – say you had a “goodness” / being ethical / being moral / etc score: Conscientiousness’s spiritual battle is more like physical education in that you have to actually perform these pull-ups, push-ups, etc – you can’t just tick a box that says “I know to do 10.”

[16:09:37] <lakitu> {14:55:28 pm} <lakitu> you have to perform at being good rather than just in a made up example be able to navigate to the right answer. it takes courage to resist bad influence, etc….

[16:09:40] <lakitu> {14:59:18 pm} <lakitu> like the differencce between ticking a box that says “Write beautiful music.” & writing beautiful music. it takes more than just knowing to do it. actually doing it requires gifts & techniques beyond average ability levels.

[16:10:22] <lakitu> {15:05:54 pm} <lakitu> ncy discussion with their class – the brave would be separated from the unbrave, the just from the unjust, etc –

[16:10:25] <lakitu> {15:06:42 pm} <lakitu> & that could tell us– we’d tell them we were testing them afterward– who is really made of mettle.

[16:13:40] <lakitu> (* ‘like tell students.)

[16:17:16] <lakitu> it would be pretty hilarious faking e.g. a graffiti rondezvous that only the guilty party shows up to, armed with spray paint cans, after school out back. just him & the security, etc.

Order-Two Philosophy: Theory; Praxis; Practice; Art; Strategy; Craft

This is a metaphilosophy dialogue I led in Undernet #philosophical in January (January23rd) 2023. It does a lot with a little & many people might appreciate the content – especially since I work to keep it approachable – using real life examples for example. This is very heady to figure & i might add on for example later. For now here is the main course!:

In this I am `lakitu`:

[11:41:05] <lakitu_> hello fattratt

[11:54:01] <lakitu_> craftratt
[11:55:18] <lakitu_> I’ve been working on this (idea) complex:
[11:55:35] <lakitu_> theory : practice : abstract
[11:55:36] <lakitu_> :
[11:57:23] <lakitu_> * theory : ? : practice : abstract :: art : strategy : craft : concrete
[11:57:33] <lakitu_> misprint the first time
[11:57:40] <lakitu_> that I fixed
[11:58:03] <lakitu_> the “::” divides the two
[11:58:09] <lakitu_> as you saw I bet
[11:58:20] <lakitu_> * as you may have seen
[11:59:05] <lakitu_> theory & practice are more abstract forms, art & craft are more concrete
[11:59:25] <lakitu_> ah that’s right:
[11:59:45] <lakitu_> theory : *praxis* : practice : abstract :: art : strategy : craft : concrete
[12:00:20] <lakitu_> praxis is the abstract go-between form for theory & praxis
[12:00:33] <lakitu_> strategy is the concrete go between form for art & craft
[12:06:19] <lakitu_> thus,
[12:06:48] <lakitu_> strike that (meaning strike saying thus,)
[12:07:10] <lakitu_> * strategy is the concrete go-between form for art & craft
[12:11:28] <lakitu_> “practice” is common for a lawyer or a doctor: a legal practice, for example.
[12:11:55] <lakitu_> that are more erudite
[12:12:58] <lakitu_> meaning educated to a high degree

[12:45:42] <lakitu_> practicing your instrument might help you more with theory than songwriting art (sic; the art of songwriting) & songwriting craft (sic; the craft of songwriting)
[12:46:00] <lakitu_> * practicing your instrument might help you more with music theory than songwriting art (sic; the art of songwriting) & songwriting craft (sic; the craft of songwriting)
[12:46:15] <lakitu_> ** practicing your instrument might help you more with *music* theory than songwriting art (sic; the art of songwriting) & songwriting craft (sic; the craft of songwriting)
[12:55:09] <Fixion> playing an instrument is very different – although related to writing music…
[12:55:26] <lakitu_> not too different
[12:55:54] <Fixion> songwriting even more requires essentially skill in lyrical poetry
[12:56:11] <Fixion> again different skill from playing and different skill from writing music
[12:56:28] <Fixion> although much of it may go hand-in-hand depending on your talent…
[12:56:29] <lakitu_> separate
[12:57:17] <Fixion> music theory is about how music is read and written, but you can play if you can read, you don’t have to write music to understand music theory…
[12:57:28] <lakitu_> crafting your performance, using a theme for your art, practicing your instrument scales, studying music theory are four examples.
[12:57:55] <Fixion> (others play without music theory – by ear – or naturally talented)
[12:58:16] <Fixion> jazz is often unread because its essentially ad hoc music
[12:58:41] <lakitu_> there’s more to music theory than reading & writing music, Fixion.
[12:58:44] <Fixion> but to differentiate it from noise Jazz often is done with a group/band, and they tend to build a ryhthm together…
[12:58:54] <Fixion> yes… listening is important too…
[12:59:20] <lakitu_> people use music theory even if they haven’t had a class in it. the I-IV-V is common, for example.
[12:59:36] <Fixion> uh?
[12:59:40] <Fixion> not sure what you mean by that
[13:00:13] <Fixion> what is I-IV-V ?(1-4-5 if its roman numerals but not sure how it applies)
[13:01:11] <lakitu_> many songs
[13:01:15] <Fixion> music THEORY is about knowing things like breaves, staffs, key signatures, etc… its about reading and writing music the THEORY of it… the sound and acutally playing it are different things altogether…
[13:02:11] <lakitu_> no. you have an affliction that is making you think music theory is only written & read. you play instruments in music theory class, use music theory at your instrument
[13:02:30] <lakitu_> use your instrument during music theory
[13:03:16] <lakitu_> for example, ear training for perfect pitch.
[13:05:35] *** Joins: Ragtime^ ([email protected])
[13:05:35] *** X sets mode: +v Ragtime^
[13:06:21] <Fixion> actually playing instruments is not required for music theory afaik.. it may be used in classes, but its not a necessary part (although it tends to be accompanying)
[13:06:40] <Fixion> normally the whole reason you are learning music theory is in order to play an instrument
[13:06:47] <lakitu_> I’ve had music theory 101 three times.
[13:07:13] <lakitu_> the teachers were at pianos.
[13:07:25] <Fixion> but someone like say beethoven (sp?) was deaf right? he did music by math, actually playing it isn’t necessarily necessary…
[13:07:44] <Fixion> it tends to help though
[13:08:11] <lakitu_> you’re very far into an imagination for music theory class versus the reallty for music theory class
[13:08:34] <Fixion> theres no single instrument that music theory applies to… (as long as it has the required pitches)
[13:09:10] <Fixion> its normally intrinsically linked but its not the same thing…
[13:10:19] <lakitu_> moving on
[13:10:22] <Fixion> but if you are writing music you don’t even need any of that, you can make musical score without ever having heard anything …
[13:11:06] <Fixion> you just follow the rules and place notes where they can go… it may sound terrible, it may sound good, but you can follow musical theory
[13:11:47] <Fixion> and you don’t need to play it yourself, you can just give the score to someone who knows how to read it and play it…
[13:11:54] <lakitu_> you’re making them as separate as you can when I am showing how they are connected
[13:12:15] <Fixion> I’m not saying they aren’t connected…
[13:12:37] <Fixion> but they aren’t the SAME thing, they’re different skills and different aspects of music…
[13:12:38] <lakitu_> weird experimental silent-music theory songwriting examples
[13:13:02] <Fixion> its entirely possible… and probably been done before
[13:13:10] <Fixion> not that I’ve tried it I mean I can read and play music…
[13:13:32] <Fixion> so if I were writing it I’d be playing it too testing it out as I go etc…
[13:13:47] * lakitu_ `/ignore`s Fixion citing he is a Big Pharma worker trying to sow discord
[13:14:07] * lakitu_ getting another hot chocolate
[13:14:11] <Fixion> sow discord? no it can actually be enabling…
[13:14:59] <Fixion> instead of telling people they have to crawl before they can walk maybe they can do something… maybe they’re disabled and unable to use an instrument but if they can create score by other means… then it gives them opportunity
[13:15:08] <Fixion> or maybe they’re no good at one but good at the other…
[13:16:08] <Fixion> I’m sick of this whole expected progression thing
[13:16:42] <Fixion> as if you can’t be good at something the very first time… and the expectation that doing it over and over again necessarily makes you better…
[13:17:03] <Fixion> sure it gives you experience but it doesn’t necessarily mean you can achieve as good a result as the first time you tried it
[13:17:17] <Fixion> (or as bad hehe)

[13:22:29] <lakitu_> chocolate is my favorite food
[13:26:41] <lakitu_> culinary art (sic; culinary arts) is another familiar art.
[13:29:37] <lakitu_> it is a little more concrete being something we make to eat around three times a day.
[13:30:09] <lakitu_> architecture is much more rare for its construction, & thus that much more theoretical – needing to get it right
[13:30:33] <lakitu_> for the long term.

[14:14:16] <lakitu_> that was not a very helpful article.
[14:15:09] <lakitu_> for example, you might use praxis to generalize from practice to theory – you might demonstrate by using strategy to go from art to craft.

In this, I am “lakitu”:

{23:59:05 pm} <kblom> I never had manicotti

{00:00:05 am} <LionClan> Nor have I but I can imagine what it would taste like

{00:00:14 am} * fattratt_ has quit (Ping timeout)

{00:03:34 am} <kblom> I’m already convinced that all italian pasta is delicious

{00:04:14 am} * Forgeron has quit (Ping timeout)

{00:04:32 am} * X sets channel limit to 37

{00:05:07 am} <kblom> except for angel hair spaghetti

{00:06:24 am} <kblom> no way it’s always too mushy

{00:16:30 am} <kblom> I expect pasta to have a bit have a bit of al dente and angel hair never does. it’s always mush

{00:18:50 am} <kblom> I won’t eat it

{00:30:15 am} * Forgeron ([email protected]) has joined

{00:30:45 am} <kblom> otherwise I don’t understand why italian cuisine is so excellent but it is

{00:32:01 am} <kblom> the italians I knew were very cool

{00:35:11 am} <lakitu> kblom, I love that Italian combined traditional national food with imported spices like crushed red (cayenne) pepper. I think few people don’t enjoy well-made Italian food. Mediterranean dishes are also very healthy – at least their high-fat element & of course olive oil / olives, wine . . .

{00:35:49 am} <lakitu> (red wine)

{00:36:34 am} <lakitu> a very traditional Italian cuisine is not a bad choice in the West for an enjoyable, healthy cuisine.

{00:37:14 am} <lakitu> brb

{00:38:38 am} <lakitu> Mediterranean at least has stood up to scrutiny, so far.

{00:39:03 am} <lakitu> I used to down a shot of olive oil twice a day for health.

{00:41:47 am} * fattratt_ ([email protected]) has joined

{00:41:53 am} <kblom> lakitu yeah italians know how to eat

{00:45:14 am} <kblom> do italians down a shot of olive oil twice a day for health?

{00:45:25 am} <lakitu> some I’m sure

{00:45:38 am} <fattratt_> some

{00:46:04 am} <fattratt_> But I don’t immediately see the italians as a health-obsessed nation.

{00:46:24 am} <lakitu> I know a doctor who recommends you get up to 80% of your calories from fats – our primary fuel, instead of say carbohydrates, both complex & simple, which complex turn into simple in our bodies. that is part of the diet code I follow myself: as a prototype: fats (including the very important *for longevity* omega-3s), organic veggie juice & organic raw veggies, & (low/no methylmercury) fish ((such as salmon, sardines, …)) & organic

{00:46:24 am} <lakitu> eggs, mainly.

{00:46:55 am} <kblom> maybe that’s an anglosaxon thing

{00:47:31 am} <lakitu> examples of fats are fish, animal fats, & dairy, like cheese.

{00:47:32 am} <fattratt_> Aye, fats have made a comeback. At one time the Dominant Orthodoxy said they were a big no no. But perhaps there has been a bit of a scientific revolution since then.

{00:47:44 am} <lakitu> heh – science gets credit coming & going

{00:48:40 am} <fattratt_> Thanks to people like Herr Dr. Lustig.

{00:48:41 am} <lakitu> there was Ancel Keys flawed (corporate) science study;

{00:49:13 am} <lakitu> that is still in influence today

{00:49:31 am} <lakitu> the American Heart Association warns against the dangers of coconut oil, e.g.

{00:49:37 am} <LionClan> In re olive oil, yes.

{00:49:52 am} <LionClan> They also rub it all over

{00:51:06 am} <lakitu> I’ve heard another newer olive-oil study trend that you CAN cook with it – it doesn’t turn unhealthy when cooked at medium temperatures

{00:51:16 am} <LionClan> Italians come in all sorts and sizes

{00:51:25 am} <lakitu> which would be great for dietetics & culinary arts people

{00:51:46 am} <lakitu> LionClan: touching a goomba has a large effect

{00:52:25 am} <lakitu> * for dietetics & the culinary arts…

{00:52:46 am} <lakitu> coconuts are overfarmed. whether or not they can just plant more, I’m not sure.

{00:54:07 am} <lakitu> * Ancel Keys’ flawed (corporate) science study

{00:54:09 am} <lakitu> sorry

{00:56:47 am} <lakitu> olive trees live hundreds, sometimes over a thousand years

{00:56:55 am} <lakitu> not a bad choice for a food source.

{00:57:03 am} <lakitu> –that trait.

{00:57:41 am} <fattratt_> I think I saw something a while ago that suggested that the American Heart Assn was ‘bought’ by ppl who wanted to promote polyunsaturated margarine, etc.

{00:58:05 am} <kblom> but whon wabts to eat olives– I hate them

{00:58:07 am} <fattratt_> This was several decades ago.

{00:58:10 am} <lakitu> I love olives!!

{00:58:16 am} <lakitu> –green ones

{00:58:31 am} <lakitu> I have some almost daily.

{00:58:37 am} <fattratt_> I like to wrap olives in kale leaves and eat them raw.

{00:58:43 am} <lakitu> yum

{00:59:07 am} <lakitu> I was about to say, a very famous locale for olive trees is Sulmo – where Ovid was born & raised.

{00:59:34 am} <kblom> rat disgusting

{01:00:33 am} <lakitu> (olives are a secret-weapon in a high-fat diet. I think many like them & they’re a high-fat vegetable.)

{01:00:59 am} <lakitu> * (olives are a secret weapon in a high-fat diet. I think many like them & they’re a high-fat vegetable.)

{01:02:04 am} <lakitu> I think a very, very underappreciated branch of the tree of Life is mushrooms (mainly mushrooms, but also some algae, etc) in dietetics & culinary arts.

{01:03:35 am} <lakitu> there are over 140,000 species of mushrooms, & many have potent immunity properties & even reproductive potency benefits.

{01:07:04 am} <kblom> olives are disgusting and I won’t eat them but I’ll eat tomatos

{01:08:06 am} <lakitu> they contain glutathione & ergothioneine, which are both very, very potent, once you begin to learn your body compounds & also mushrooms.

{01:08:10 am} <lakitu> –brb

{01:09:50 am} <lakitu> back

{01:11:27 am} <lakitu> shiitake, reishi, turkey tail, lion’s mane . . .

{01:11:57 am} <lakitu> evidently that number is just for the number of identified species, there **in total** anywhere from 1.5 million to 5.1 million different mushroom species on Earth.

{01:12:51 am} <lakitu> vegans love them as an alternative source of protein, too.

{01:14:33 am} <lakitu> –I don’t mind snacking on some white button mushrooms from the store. I’m sure culinary arts people could spice them up pretty good

{01:17:49 am} <lakitu> I eat lots of fish & olives & cheese, in practice.

{01:18:07 am} <lakitu> but low/no methylmercury fish, organic olives, etc

{01:18:25 am} <klys> mm that might make olives the right match for olive oil

{01:18:27 am} <lakitu> eggs too I suppose.

{01:19:01 am} <lakitu> yeah – I drizzle olive oil & salt – **just those two** – on my salmon filets

{01:19:02 am} <lakitu> & love it

{01:19:28 am} <lakitu> drizzle olive oil on & salt, I could grammaticalize it, as.

{01:19:47 am} <lakitu> I’ve never not finished it; it’s very tasty.

{01:20:21 am} <lakitu> & then do daily veggie juicing.

{01:20:33 am} <klys> so eh, do you juice greens?

{01:20:35 am} <lakitu> yes

{01:20:43 am} <klys> and make a green drink?

{01:20:44 am} <lakitu> deep, dark leafy greens mainly

{01:20:51 am} <lakitu> yes – “plant juice”

{01:21:01 am} <lakitu> I have a whole system I teach others with

{01:21:12 am} <lakitu> for making juice recipes that are healthy & tasty

{01:21:32 am} <klys> eheh, usually the green drinks I buy are either spirulina-style superfood or they also contain apple juice

{01:21:44 am} <lakitu> yeah. are they fresh?

{01:22:14 am} <klys> yeah the spirulina “king of greens” (which includes kale, spinach, etc.) is made daily

{01:22:52 am} <klys> and I guess that would be a reason to use a preservative

{01:27:02 am} <lakitu> you do: dark leafy greens like spinach, green leaf lettuce, red leaf lettuce, arugula, etc for health, then add: cucumbers &/or celery for volume/palatability, a very measured amount of “astringents” I call them: some combo of onion, garlick, ginger root, etc (again for health); you can add lemon or lime, which are low in (the unhealthy type of) sugar, for taste; herbs like cilantro (which is a great aluminum detoxer– our most abundant

{01:27:02 am} <lakitu> toxin, in our species), & other herbs (be careful because these are potent – e.g. too much parsley can cause a bad detoxing reaction on your liver and/or kidneys, have to start small/slow), for health (herbs for health); & then garden-variety vegetables like tomatoes, peppers, carrots, for taste & health;

{01:27:41 am} <lakitu> right – it can be a lot of work to juice daily, every other day, which is how long before they go rancid

{01:28:20 am} <lakitu> so I thought & thought, & came up with my own preservation method, which I believe preserves the compounds (nutrients/phytochemicals) in the juice largely: https://joevalentyn.org/press/2017/10/22/juicing-ideas-for-you/amp/

{01:28:23 am} <zhan> Juicing Ideas For You ⸻ ♡, Joe Valentyn

{01:28:56 am} <lakitu> essentially you add lactofermented (probiotic) sauerkraut/pickle/(…) brine –

{01:29:29 am} <lakitu> you know this stays good in the fridge for weeks, preserving the veggies: the shredded cabbage which makes up sauerkraut, the baby cucumbers which are pickled, etc

{01:29:54 am} <lakitu> & in fact it works wonders for the plant juices, they keep around 7 days

{01:30:01 am} <lakitu> which means you work about 6/7ths less

{01:30:05 am} <lakitu> by juicing every 7 days.

{01:30:15 am} <klys> wauw you’ve really done some homework there

{01:31:13 am} <klys> yeah so fermented “soylent,” have you tried it?

{01:31:20 am} <lakitu> no – avoid it

{01:31:45 am} <lakitu> the more you denature foods the less nutritious they– as a general rule– become

{01:32:04 am} <klys> well okay then, it’s too expensive for my tastes, I usually get the cheaper whey shakes

{01:32:07 am} <lakitu> that is the argument against processed foods

{01:33:01 am} <lakitu> I had to save myself / my health – studied health *while sick* (…) for a very long time, eventually discovered juicing & saved up (poor AND sick) to try it, & I started feeling better within days

{01:33:04 am} <lakitu> my body loved it.

{01:34:04 am} <klys> yeah, I’ll be sure to hang on to this

{01:34:27 am} <lakitu> I plan to publish the above in a new article soon, I’ll try to drop your nick in here with the link

{01:35:24 am} <klys> very good

{01:36:58 am} <lakitu> I have to say, you can feel **a lot**– not all– but **a lot** of natural medicines helping your body when they’re a match for your illness. I often try a sampler approach – round-robin, whatever – until I find something my body just **rejoices** at – when I get an infection. when something seems to be what my body wants, I try dosing that alone to fight off the illness. I’ve fought off illnesses in 18 hours many times that people

{01:36:58 am} <lakitu> around me suffered 3 to 5 days with, just by learning natural antipathogenics (antivirals, antibiotics, in rare cases antifungals).

{01:38:55 am} <fattratt_> Aye, juicing is great if you are not well.

{01:39:02 am} <lakitu> I’ll give you an example: my friend had a moderate rash on his skin; he visited & low & behold I got it. I was able to diagnose it correctly– he went to the doctor & got it tested & I had the correct species of fungus– & treat it, using natural medicine, while he got his treated with a synthetic cream. ours both resolved, but I did it using natural medicine.

{01:39:03 am} <fattratt_> But if you are well, I’d avoid it.

{01:39:11 am} <lakitu> I would not:

{01:39:23 am} <fattratt_> The fibre is important.

{01:39:38 am} <lakitu> ??

{01:39:43 am} <lakitu> why can’t you get it other ways?

{01:39:50 am} <lakitu> it does not reduce your fiber at all.

{01:39:50 am} <fattratt_> Well, yes.

{01:40:40 am} <fattratt_> You can get sugar spikes.

{01:40:41 am} <lakitu> avoid juicing *laughs*

{01:40:49 am} <lakitu> well, you see with my recipe I addressed that

{01:41:01 am} <lakitu> talking about using lemons & limes, which are low-fructose.

{01:41:17 am} <fattratt_> ok

{01:41:19 am} <lakitu> the worst kind of sugar.

{01:43:09 am} <lakitu> I mean computers are bad if you flicker the screen in a dark room for an hour – but that’s just misusing them, & not what we’re talking about with such things

{01:44:20 am} <lakitu> klys: that preservation method is rare: I’m the only person I’ve ever seen espouse it, & I thought of it sitting on my couch one day.

{01:45:16 am} <lakitu> like I say, it works great. test away . . . it should not be very different from sauerkraut, lactofermented pickles, etc

{01:47:48 am} <lakitu> which we know preserve them – they’re age-old foods & very healthy ones at that.

{01:48:13 am} <lakitu> * lo & behold.

{01:55:18 am} <lakitu> juicing is no villain.

{01:55:57 am} <lakitu> such is no villain.

{02:02:33 am} <fattratt_> have a lovely day

{02:03:27 am} <lakitu> mm – ok have fun fattratt

{02:05:20 am} <lakitu> Mercola suggested avoiding juicing e.g. onions, but I learned if you get the dose right, they can be really helpful

{02:05:35 am} <lakitu> part of the “astringents”, as I call them.

{02:07:12 am} <LionClan> Lots of great recipes begin Saute onions in butter until clear

{02:07:19 am} <lakitu> right

{02:07:32 am} <lakitu> onions are like one of the first cadets in the culinary arts

{02:08:32 am} * fattratt_ has quit (Ping timeout)

{02:08:59 am} <lakitu> there seems to be a general liminal threshold for how much you can withstand drinking ‘astringents’, & ought to carefully measure so you can still enjoy the benefits of these more dastardly plants, like garlick, onion, ginger root, & so on

{02:09:38 am} <lakitu> * there seems to be a general liminal threshold for how much you can withstand drinking ‘astringents’, & you ought to carefully measure so you can still enjoy the benefits of these more dastardly plants, like garlick, onion, ginger root, & so on

{02:11:01 am} <lakitu> I would even suggest using an eyedropper for the very potent ones like garlick juice, which if you’ve never handled, you should never drink straight (meaning alone), because it’s so astringent, etc.

{02:11:25 am} <LionClan> All right think I could replace the parsley with spinach

{02:12:06 am} <LionClan> Goes better with Italian sausage

{02:12:28 am} <lakitu> spinach is a very healthy leafy green

{02:12:38 am} <lakitu> tons of magnesium.

{02:12:51 am} <lakitu> & I think vitamin K.

{02:14:00 am} <lakitu> when I first started drinking these plant juices, I was measuring my blood pressure, & I dropped about 10-15 points of systolic blood pressure (the top number), when I was juicing spinach. they say magnesium is good for lowering blood pressure.

{02:14:39 am} <LionClan> I can feel the magnesium, feels good

{02:14:43 am} <lakitu> heh

{02:16:11 am} <lakitu> but when you consume spinach either way, you get it with thousands of other plant compounds naturally evolved / occurring with it in the spinach, versus a magnesium pill which only has that one compound, *hopefully* derived from a plant / natural source.

{02:16:29 am} <lakitu> something like 98% of vitamins are synthetic in America anyway, it’s really a shame.

{02:16:34 am} <lakitu> it’s really a sad thing.

{02:18:31 am} <lakitu> staying alive is so important, health (…) is such a big killer – & we offer so many get-rich-quick scheme synthetic, processed versions of ingredients, foods, & medicines – & textile etc compounds – that we suffer great health loss to make a quick buck, which – like Mercola says – costs you more in healthcare in the long run anyway.

{02:20:21 am} <lakitu> money is pretty low on the totem pole of Earthly goods, but you’re not even saving money, giving people synthetics, processed food, etc., anyway.

{02:25:48 am} <lakitu> protein is really like a 2nd carbohydrate, in that even moderate amounts can cause health problems, such as cancer. …just like how excess carbohydrates can cause inflammation, weight gain, diabetes, & cancer.

{02:54:35 am} <lakitu> I read once on a Harvard Medical Department website that 8oz of carrot juice was equal to about 5 servings of carrot, ate, minus the fiber. so juicing is a economical choice for getting in a lot of veggies.

{02:59:20 am} <lakitu> one great thing about juicing too is *******it regenerates your immune system to a very hardy level******* – which will be very important when the antibiotic-resistant diseases begin to plague us more, over the next 35-50 years **at least**, similar to how we’ve seen SARS-CoV-2 plague us . . .

{03:09:42 am} <lakitu> then there’s omega 3s, especially for fish. of all medical indexes (indices, other people say) in a meta-analysis of what-I-remember-being tens or hundreds of thousands of studies, the top index in all of them indicating longevity was your omega 3 index: how much omega 3 fatty acids you have in your body– particularly the EPA version of omega 3 fatty acids, found in fish.

{03:10:59 am} <lakitu> “In this body of work, led by omega-3 expert and prolific researcher William Harris, Ph.D., professor of medicine, Sanford School of Medicine, University of South Dakota, the omega-3 index was measured for 2,500 participants (54 percent women) in the offspring cohort of the Framingham Heart Study.2 The omega-3 index reflects the EPA and DHA content of your red blood cell membranes.

{03:10:59 am} <lakitu> All participants, who had an average age of 66 years and were CVD free at baseline, were tracked until about age 73. Besides tracking total mortality, researchers also noted death from CVD, cancer and other causes, as well as any associations between omega-3 index levels and risk of CVD events, fatal or not.

{03:10:59 am} <lakitu> While increased levels of omega-3s have been shown to reduce your CVD risk, the researchers also noted a strong association between the omega-3 index and death from all other causes. Notably, when comparing participant omega-3 index levels, those with the highest levels of omega-3 fatty acids slashed their risk of death from any cause by 34 percent.”

{03:12:25 am} <Fixion> uh IRC.libra,chat back again … I’m going to set the mode to +s again

{03:12:34 am} <lakitu> 42% – for the veggies – life-chance upping – is huge. so is 34% for the (mainly fish) omega-3 index.

{03:15:41 am} <Fixion> I might not be able to get my second vaccine! supplies are running out here

{03:16:05 am} <Fixion> im still in my 3 week waiting period for the second pfizer shot

{03:18:23 am} <lakitu> you’d be hard pressed to find a 34% all-causes mortality upping to your life chances like that just skimming thru the literature.

{03:18:28 am} <lakitu> 42% even more.

{03:18:49 am} <lakitu> you should be happy if you find something that slashes your death risk 10% – that is substantial.

{03:21:14 am} <lakitu> another therapy I’d suggest to research is oxygen therapy; you can only go maybe 30, 45 seconds to a minute without oxygen before you begin to get brain damage – it’s *that important*.

{03:23:01 am} <lakitu> in biochemistry they teach that there are three main processes in our cells at that level: transporting in nutrients, transporting out waste (such as dead matter & toxins), & healing using oxygen… oxygen very simply is a healer; that’s what it does for us, simply put.

{03:25:25 am} <lakitu> if you have something like a stroke, or traumatic brain injury, oxygen therapy can heal your brain such that you have low/no cognitive complications – ones you otherwise would have – afterward; it was found to have this potential, particularly in combination with vitamin B3 – also known as niacin – in medical studies.

{03:26:30 am} <lakitu> you would want to administer it very soon after to prevent the effects the most & heal the quickest: the study did it within 24-48 hours after the stroke, for example.

{03:28:29 am} <lakitu> but you can have low/no cognitive complications using such therapies; & the side effects of oxygen & a vitamin just are not there – they are way healthy.

{03:31:31 am} <lakitu> (avoid the extended-release form of niacin (B3) because it often damages the liver.)

{03:33:46 am} <LionClan> Don’t recommend B3 for the duration of covid pandemic

{03:41:37 am} <lakitu> I was going to say, niacin is kind of a different beast in that it can supercharge what you take with it – excessively – & what you have in you, by dilating the endothelial cells, veins, & arteries – which collectively are “the vessels” – & distribute what you take with it or have in you farther, deeper into your body. it has its uses & – combined with oxygen – stroke / brain injury/damage seems like one of them – but it is one I would

{03:41:37 am} <lakitu> be careful about taking if you have a pathogen problem or if you are trying to naively combine it with other medicines, as it can make their effectiveness to strong & make you lightheaded, etc.

{03:42:38 am} <inhahe_> lakitu, isn’t iodine supplement really good for you? howcome I couldn’t find any in Walgreens?

{03:42:42 am} <lakitu> too strong*

{04:00:05 am} <lakitu> Vitamin D3, which we usually get thru Sun exposure (best around solar noon), can also cut your risk of dying by 50%, for the up to 90-95% percent of people deficient in vitamin D3: “Again, in the study those who corrected their deficiencies saw their risk of death drop by more than half.” if you try to supplement with oral D3 you have to supplement with magnesium & K2 or you face calcification of your arteries, which is a hardening that

{04:00:05 am} <lakitu> can lead to cardiovascular disease, you can read about. there is a grassrootshealth.net that will help you get convenient, affordable testing & get your vitamin D3 (& omega-3) levels right.

ME: hey Jake, i’ll take the best! about those juices you were looking to cure up with: after a lot of experimentation, i’ve learned you should avoid excess parsley in juices, because it can overload your kidneys if you have a lot of toxins, & you should avoid excess radishes in your juices, because it can overload your liver if you have too many toxins. also, some say broccoli juice causes goiters in excess & asparagus can cause cancer. those are the only real health cavaets i can think of offhand.

as far as taste, my overall basic recipe formula is: flavorizer(s) + volumerizer(s) + deep, dark leafy green(s) + optional herb(s) + optional extras, where:

flavorizers are like lemon (which is low in bad sugar, fructose), lime (same), and/or fennel bulb (just the bulb – tastes like grape bubble gum); they make it palatable;

volumizers are celery and/or cucumber, they add volume & also really really help to make it palatable;

deep, dark leafy greens are listed everywhere, but favorites are spinach & romaine lettuce, & green & red leaf lettuce. these are the healthiest according to the experts i talk to & i try to add different kinds per juice. experimenting will get you the right amount per; too much & its too bitter to stomach. e.g 3-5 ounces of spinach would be a fair amount for one of the juice servings (8-12 oz) i make.

herbs you know, but i will just say after much experience, you actually can use onions, garlics, & ginger (mentioned) below, if you really really ration the amount – here’s the magic numbers i’ve found for them:

· onion: max of 1/15th of a medium onion per 8-12oz juice;

· garlic: max of ‘1 bit’ (about a 1/3rd to a 1/5th) of ‘1 cut’ (about the size of a usual supplement pill, & as much as you could reasonably eat max at once). the juicing will bring out gloads of flavor when you use garlic.

· ginger: same as garlic, if not less.

optional extras: most anything else you want to be creative & try. Mercola said he loves raw coconut, for example. i like adding farm food, like tomatoes & as i said, onions.

use those other links for important other information too!

thanks for saying hi! have a wavy day!

JAKE: ?



As an update, I include this explanation in an email to someone I Love very much & even have publications planned with, outside of health:

hey Martha – after long enough juicing, I’ve gotten pretty good at flavor, & preservation, & can help you with either of those, but this time I want to tell you about how juicing *detoxes you*, & that can, with enough toxins being filtered thru & then out of your body, make you feel fatigued, or give you kidney discomfort or pain. the way I’ve found to deal with this is:


1) drink your juice in quarters/halves at a time – separated by say 6 hours or 12 hours;


2) drink 1-2 bottles of water right when you feel say fatigued or kidney pressure after drinking a juice;


& 3) cut your intake of juice, at first to a *a quarter, is what I use for a rule of thumb with natural medicine side effects, etc*, & then inch back up to find your optimum level you can tolerate.


I esp. notice this in-the-long-run wonderful detoxing effect with certain veggies like curley parsley, which does a beautiful job cleansing the kidneys.


Other veggies to avoid or go low on juicing:


Broccoli (avoid) – can cause goiters, some say


Asparagus (avoid) – agian, *some* say it can cause cancer


Radishes (*) – these are extremely powerful liver cleansers, but the problem is we are extremely toxified (the liver cleanses toxins, as do the kidneys – that’s what the liver **does** – it’s its purpose), so the extreme cleansing meets the extreme toxifiedness of the liver & a strong, painful reaction can ensue. if you’re like me, & if you’re interested in cleansing the kidney, you then look to starting withi a little bit of radish, & scaling up safely, since its so economical AT cleansing the liver. but otherwise (hence the “*” after “Radishes”, at the beginning of this paragraph) **avoid radishes in plant juicing**


Curley parlsey (*) – similar deal: it’s great at what it does: cleanse kidneys, liver, but we’re so toxified (from environmental & food toxins) we must go easy with this. I find I can juice two bunches of curley parsley if I split the juice in half (8oz every 12 hours) & then drink bottles of water when first starting with it. but I am that-much more toxified from the pills. You’d do best to do this: 1) juice the curley parsley into a separate juicer catcher/container, & then add little bits each day, experimenting with more & more to see that you feel ok when you drink it. if you don’t notice e.g. kidney pressure at night (which if you do, as I say drink 1-2 bottles of water to help flush toxins out), then you can progressively add more & more to ’till you’re at your desired amount (e.g. two bunches of curley parsely per 7-9 16oz veggie juice batches you make (remember you can make more than 2 days worth if you add 1oz of Bubbie’s sauerkraut brine to each 16oz of juice, which will preserve it up to 9 days instead of max 2 ((days))…)).


so if you experience fatigue or kidney discomfort, do the above – drink it in quarters or halves spaced out thruout the day, drink 1-2 bottles of water when you first start to feel that way, & cut your intake of juice or at least that ingredient in the juice recipe (& optionally find a good amount you can tolerate – starting very low & giving it 24 hours from dose ’til you gather it doesn’t make you feel fatigue or discomfort.)


Love you! Juicing is one of the healthiest things I know!

Yours,
Joe


& As a second update I will say if you add sugary veggies like carrots & tomatoes, etc, then the preservation should last about 7 days rather than 9, which still saves you 6/7ths of your work.

LATINAS COMMUNIQUE

Feature Spread




This spread’s title changed century twenty-one year twenty-one month four day twenty around 5:30pm.


This communique was originally conceived approximately early Winter, Spring of 2016, & composed around January – February of 2020.


Latinas… Latinas are truly as if plucked out of a fantasy: of the most beautiful women we could hope to get.

No lies there.

Latino men are proportionately Romantic.

Reach out to us in the rest of The West ⸻ let us touch hands with you ⸻ We Love You.

These – affluence-wise – ever-so healthy, blindingly Beautiful Latina women & also these Latino men have one-tenth of our wealth; & deserve everything we have once over for themselves.

Let us touch hands with you ⸻ reach out to us in the rest of The West ⸻ we are not greedy ⸻ & We Love You.

Latinas are even one & the same– these most sexy, healthy inside-&-out women– race: we are “Hispanic & Non-Hispanic Whites”, per the Census Bureau. We are called White Americans. & Latinos are Christian ⸻ largely: 92% of who many call Hispanic Americans are Christians ⸻ & very spiritual ones at that.

Let’s get in touch ⸻ why not chat up everyone you meet online, on the street, peoples? Step up & say hey. We Love You ⸻ We Love You ⸻ We Love You.

We do not hate other Westerners.

We are not afraid of the unknown.

Westerners embrace that blind date with the ones said to be the best at Love itself, no less.

– My actual message is: Latinas are hottt ⸻ they’re the best Lovers ⸻ & they need help we can provide ⸻

Did I mention the hotttness of Latinas?

Are you just going to stand there? Maybe holding your piece?

Philosophers vs. psychiatrists & psychologists mentally, in terms of soundness, etc.

Feature Spread




I thought this was interesting:

Mental soundness is often attributed to those who make a life’s work studying it, but philosophers far & away outdo psychs, per the GRE (grad school exams given to most disciplines), and, much more.

Here’s some other gems from the original website:



‘The standardized test used to assess applicants to graduate school in management and business. (The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), typically for Master of Business Administration degrees (MBAs)).’


Mean LSAT scores by major (2015). The LSAT is the entrance exam for law school.”


Average Number of Standard Deviations Above the Mean for the Three Sections of the GRE (2019).  The GRE is the standardized test used to assess applicants to graduate school in most disciplines. Graph by Tomas Bogardus.”


Mean GRE Verbal scores by major (2015). The GRE is the standardized test used to assess applicants to graduate school in most disciplines.”


My own test scores were ninety-ninth percentile in all categories in the state-standards testing I took, & fourteenth-grade for overall comprehension in grade school.

Things to think about.

2019 World Outlook & Priorities For The Nation

Feature Spread




Misprint emendation for typist’s typo made 2024April20th.


Greetings.

These ideas are for us, the people, for the United Nations, and the United States government, to because upon. These ideas are good ideas to fight for.

I will say first listen to your people. Listen to your people – not just ossify misguided programs with money, & don’t just listen to “experts” but to the people on their hands and knees working under these problems.

That is a duty of representational government – to listen to its people.

World Outlook:

  • GHGs & oil. We will need to kick renewable energy programs into gear, such as solar energy programs. Oil will be running out at the same time.
  • Infections which are antibiotic-resistant. We will have to taper overusing synthetic antibiotics, to avoid as much of the projected twenty-seven Holocausts’ worth of deaths we can from antibiotic resistant disease over the next 35 years, were we to continue course unchanged.
    The large majority of overused antibiotics are injected into farm animals, which we then consume; so we will need to slash their use, as well as in humans, to avoid up to 300 million deaths worldwide over the next 35 years.
  • Food & topsoil. With populations booming at the same time topsoil is eroding, we will need to grow agricultural productions approximately 35% over the next 50 years, particularily through sustainable practices avoiding the pitfalls of choosing genetic engineering such as super weeds, & also of monocropping, choosing instead to use more sustainable practices, such as growing organic produce, & crop rotation, which unbounds nutrient values in fruits and vegetables through topsoil conservation.

Priorities for the Nation:

  • Women in Power. Only one in ten in government are women. We need the 50/50 campaign & other social motions to put our highly communicative, highly empathetic, very reasonable, & very sensible women, who are better with people often times, in equal ranks of the ship of state, & let them in on peace negotiations, on budget talks & into the forbidden leadership roles for women. As the largest meaningful grouping on Earth, they should not be under represented to this poor of a degree. Consider this their knocking.
  • Population. We need to grow our population; we are smaller than other comparable countries. See my October 22nd 2018 communique, titled, “The New American Dreamers.” For the sake of life in this country, we need to have more sex & reproduce via that, man’s delight.
    People are most important, & we will be better off living with more, more sustainably. Please read my carefully written communique from October 22nd, on this same site.
  • Natural health. Ninety one percent of all deaths are from health problems the statistics say. Optimal health we have come to learn is best served with first doing no harm, letting food be thy medicine, & with natural healthy lifestyle approaches since we know prevention is the best medicine. The last refuges of harmful synthetics are burning in the rear view mirror – synthetic antibiotics are projected to kill 300 million people, 27 Holocausts worth, continuing course unchanged; & daily low dose aspirin was found to cause excessive stomach bleeding. Omega-3s, dropping inches from your waistline, 7+ servings of veggies & fruits a day, & frequent motion all slash your all-causes mortality risk 40% or more, each. Natural health works – lets show it with our best physical science.
  • Election interference. We have the national intelligence agencies citing a “high confidence index” – Russians are pursuing active measures campaigns to interfere with our electing our leaders – which could disrupt future elections of leaders systemically, too.
  • Campaign-finance reform. This is another systemic problem. “Dialing for dollars,” as Bernie Sanders talks about, this involves super PACs’ unlimited spending, thanks to Citizens United, wherein we used ideas like Money is Speech, & Corporations are People! Since we have an economically unequal democracy, standardizing dollar donations is a way we can restore democracy rather than plutocracy to the artwork of our form of government, & we must restore democracy in this way, through campaign finance reform, for the free and fair systemic electing of leaders in The United States here & now..
  • GHGs & oil. Same as above.
  • Infections which are antibiotic-resistant. Same as above.
  • Sperm motility rates plummeting 50% in the west in 40 years.
  • Fifty percent of all wildlife killed in 40 years.
  • Ninety-one percent of plant varietals vanished in 90 years.
  • Thirty-three percent obesity rate increase.
  • Methylmercury poisoning of fish.
  • Seventy-five percent of flying insects dead in 40 years.
  • Air pollution.
  • Ocean acidification.
  • Super weeds from genetically engineered produce.
  • Plastic in the oceans.

Clearly we have an addiction to synthetics, both synthetic compounds used in about everything, & the synthetic medicines, as well as severe Natural conservation mismanagement approaches, with the only 2%-phytochemically-studied 400,00 species of plants on this Earth, & so we will need some wise, even sapient sustainable enviromental practices becoming our way of life.

  • Human Trafficking. We need to kick down the door on this bad dream for millions of tormented people & their loved ones. Without infringing on other liberties, we should crack more criminal sex & slavery rings across the Nation, & this could be broadened to a global scope even.
    Free our girls! Free slave laborers!
    Now.
  • inequality. 44-families own half of the wealth. The top tier are, in the United States, currently taking in 95% of new income gains. From reducing corporate influence to a trickle, to estate taxes, to minimum wage raises, to employee-owned & co-op business models, this will be a main cause for disorder & discontent until we get this massive disproportioning under control. The national dialog on this was severely disrupted by 2016’s election & we will need to pick up where we left off from, keeping a vigilant torch on this issue.
  • A “Grand Bargain” for entitlements. Social Security will be insolvent by 2033 &  Medicare by 2026, according to their trustees. The Baby Boomer generation & the Millenials will need to bargain over things like slowing cost-of-living adjustments & increasing taxes to make Medicare, Medicaid & Social Security solvent again. Without Social Security, fifty percent of our wisest members would be living in poverty – just one in ten are so stricken, with Social Security.
    We need to make Social Security contributory, where each generation is paying their own way toward retirement. Look for such a generational-equity solution, as Franklin Delano Roosevelt originally envisioned for Social Security.
  • Equal pay for equal work. We need to balance the 75% only that women get on average of men’s pay, so we have “equal pay for equal work.”
  • Debt. Another area where elders have somehow bequeathed us a bill, we are currently at a level near 100% of our GDP. The second-highest “spending” we do is on interest for the American debt. Largely we owe China  for our debt. our solution will have to come from finding some mix of magic numbers for things like increases to income, employer, & corporate taxes, & magic-number-cuts to entitlements & national defense spending – our top sources of revenue & non-interest expenditures, unless we can generate a new means of income to pay down our debt & get rid of the ‘money sink’ debt-interest cost we pay currently.
  • Draconian confinements. From drug sentences to locking up gays in so-called mental hospitals, we need to stop with Draconian judgements & live in  a world of pluralism and respect, not Draconianism and prejudice.
  • Internet privacy. I would like in-the-know women & female ethics philosophers particularly to have a lot of say & the lead in a national dialog about how we should address communications  & information technology information privacy, against the slithering siphoning of private & personal information, including photos & videos, by capitalist data – miners often working hand in hand with Madison Avenue’s Marketers.
  • Minimum wage. Workers need a living wage. Right now we subsidize Wal-mart – owned by one of the richest families in the world – to have their employees require government assistance. We must stop corporate welfare here & elsewhere, we have too many money problems as it is.
  • Refugees. Refugees need refuge. Many Middle Easterners in Syria are Christians, & denying the helping hand we can afford to give them of shelter and food until bigger militant forces have settled down in their home Country.
  • Yemeni humanitarian-crisis aid. If children are very sick at a party, and you can pay a fairly paltry sum to help save so many, it would be a derelictness to not save them.Millions are starving in Yemen thanks to again proxy battles, & Allies or not we will have to help stem the mass starvation & malnutrition happening in the worst humanitarian crisis we have seen since World War II.

    Help the Yemeni. Say yes to Yemen.

  • Micro-trading. Hundreds-or thousands-of-fold faster stock & other finance trades are happening with micro-training, which is rapid automated trading of stocks & other securities. Some have forecast a potential 2nd recession from these lacking regulations. Very likely they need to be regulated to keep the markets at a human pace of volatility.

These were all I thought of off the top of my head.

I would like to cite many, many statistics, & in general better my information, but right now I am falsley held in confinement and not allowed to have access to a computer, write, or even talk to my loved ones over the phone for all and most of the day, respectively.

But these are my sincerestly held beliefs. Thank you very much for your listening to me.

Healthcare: On The Philosophy Of Medicine, Today

Feature Spread




One of my main focuses, I have been waiting on, is to introduce Health – which is very different from Medicine – into our political dialogue.

Of all deaths, 91% are from disease – non-communicable & communicable diseases.

Here is a thinkpiece written in bed from late 2016 or so, that I wanted to share now, as an addition to my pro vegetable & fruit communiques.

Without further ado:

If you heat up ammonia, & force people to to take what is produced by it, charge an exorbitant rate for this, & specifically target people you don’t like with this, this is called “healthcare.”

If you omit studies saying how harmful it is, we are then doing medical science.

& If you replace the normal produce used for medicine over tens of thousands of years, with these byproducts, you are then doing conventional medicine, as opposed to alternative medicine.

& If you recommend vegetables, fruits, roots, herbs, nuts, pastured eggs, organic cheese, grass fed beef, oils, syrup & honey & exercise, you are ‘a quack.’

That is my report on Earthly healthcare today.

Juicing Ideas For You

Feature Spread




This post acquired a number of typos – the “word gnomes” of IRC all over again. I have corrected a number of small typos as of today, June the 3rd (2021).


Vegetable juicing is one of the healthiest things I know – literally.

After juicing for years – beyond using a masticating juicer ((or better)); beyond using fresh, organic produce; beyond juicing dark leafy greens because they’re usually healthiest; beyond storing it for 24 hours or less preferably-in-glass in the fridge; beyond using volumizers like celery and cucumber to make the bitter greens tastier; I came up with 3 of my own ways of making juicing healthier, tastier, & easier:

Juicing Idea #1: Extend the life by adding fermented brines.

I don’t have lab equipment, but you can taste when a juice has gone bad usually, & I was able to extend the life of my juices by about 3x by adding 1oz of lactofermented brines like homemade pickle juice or homemade fermented cherry tomatoes with basil leaves’ brine per serving of juicing I kept in the fridge. This helps quite a bit when you otherwise have to juice every day or every other day.

It’s also pretty healthy.

Idea #2: Extend the life & deliver more nutrients into your cells by adding Himalayan salt to your juices, & make your juices taste better.

Sodium is an important electrolyte, & it helps deliver more nutrients into your cells. 

It also is one of the world’s oldest preserving agents, & Himalayan salt is all natural (as is sea salt).

Adding to that, this makes your juices taste better, when salted    to taste. That is one of the barriers to juicing often.

Which brings me to: 

Juicing Idea #3: Make your juice palatable *healthily* by adding mint. 

I just tried this. My juices go from about a 7 for flavor to about a 9 or 10.

That’s it! 
Enjoy your 50% life-chance increases!

Survival For All Disaster Situations: Ideas Drawn From Our Basic Needs, by Joe Valentyn

Feature Spread




Greetings.

The recent hurricane activity provides us a grounds for gathering some of the necessities of life for ANY kind of foreseen or unforeseen disaster.

I have studied the philosophy of life enough to have some basics familiar to me, that are used by possibly every person I’ve ever known.

Things like bodily health & also heartfelt happiness are needs & therefore interests of possibly every person I’ve ever met; actualizing those basic desires with food & principles, respectively, are arts that are some amount known. This is my collection of obvious essentials meeting our desires. Copying this checklist or browsing a shopping site at the same time is probably a good idea.

A water filter & water. “LifeStraw” makes a family unit that serves a family of four 3 years’ worth of filtration for clean, drinkable water. There is a “community” one for about 22 people for 3 years, for 429 dollars. The family water system is 75; water jugs can also be delivered & stored for drinking, washing up & doing dishes.

A generator & enough fuel. Store your fuel safely, some fuels require certain procedures for safe storage, such as gasoline.

Money. A supply of money will help pad & in some cases wholly protect against problems.

Transport & fuel supply for it stored safely. You would need water, food, fuel, & health supplies that will not always be nearby.

Fuel. From generators to transportation to furnaces, fuel would be in demand.

Seeds, long-term storage food (such as rice, canned soups & vegetables), grocery money, & even chickens & fishing poles (& lures & hooks) & mushrooms are also potentially lifegiving things in the event of a catastrophe. Sprouts & herbs can be grown indoors in inarable climates. A greenhouse could be like Mecca were you able to pony up the fuel. Hens can each produce up to 300 eggs per year. It is possible a fish farm would be viable. A wise investment also could be a manual vegetable juicer (one you turn with your hand, say) for keeping healthy.

Portable heaters, and/or fans, and/or blankets, and/or ifrestarter, and/or firewood, and/or tinder. Warmth, or in air with heat, soothing cool, is basically a necessity for us. The generator & fuel (stored safely) show up here too.

Health supplies like oral care products, soaps & cleaners, band-aids, birth control & tampons, natural antibiotics, fermented probiotic foods, anti-inflammatories & pain pills, disinfectants, medications, stress relievers & sunblock, as well cosmetic tools like scissors & razors, are mostly-all cheap & in the case of helping us prevent & treat tooth abcesses & kidney infections, essential.

Lights, such as flashlights, lamps, & candles, & fuel for them as well as lighters and/or matches, and/or firestarter.

Clothes & bedding. Warm; cool; washable & durable. Consider bedding & pillows that are easier to wash, such as those made from certain synthetic materials, were washing to become difficult.

Books, data, communications, & paper.goods Survival handbooks would be great to keep 2 copies of: one for you & one for a friend. Computers – & if internet, power were down, data and/or power – radios & phones offer a backbone of resistance against disasters & needs created thereby. Paper, pens, files & the like can be used for budgeting, garden plotting, medical records, communications & recreational thinking. The software organization “Kiwix” offers up Wikipedia, Wikinews, medical media, & advice forums for topics offline. Having these books, communications technologies & data would mean you wouldn’t be shut off from many strangely-needed items of knowledge. The data would be great as a harddrive (for sale).

Data backups of survival, personal, & other valuable information across drives, offline & also off-site is advised. Consider M-Disc technology & also micro- or normal print-offs.

the Bible or preferred religious work. Tempests require great – & also smart – strength & wisdom. Some of the most time-tested wisdom is a great resource for any man, woman, or child.

Having a plan to make money in the event of an extended disaster, & other sketches of plans to cope without power or other essentials, would probably be a reasonable investment of your time.

Condoms, scents, & make-up may be life essentials we are accustomed to that with a rapid forethought & preparing, you do want.

Community teaching supplies – paper, pens, white or chalk board, to teach others survivalism methods & discuss ideas are extra-curricular that some people, somewhere would have to take up. That is something you’d know, & could prepare for: having something to share.

Prioritize, invest, & take a minute to get your ducks in a row. Your family & even community could thank you.

I appreciate your reading.

Kicking Down The Door On 21 Million People’s Horrifying Human Trafficking Torment

Feature Spread




Greetings.

As discussed, lately, & something I had been planning to add to my platform planks, “human trafficking” steals the lives of 21 million people, on Earth.

That fact is haunting. It is ferociously nauseating. & I will break ice to stop it.

This real-life horror is something I had given thought to back in 2015, & produced this idea.

Here is an idea on how we could quite literally kick down the door on 21 million people’s bad dream they live:

I’m not saying “Do this”, but I just had the idea & wanted to ask: Do you think we have the responsibility & self-control to implement infrared body heat monitoring (with anti-circumvention measures) that only powers on when someone is abducted – say a teenage girl – so to do a “headcount” via number of residents registered (invasive, but read on,) per household: if someone is found to be missing, turn on the infrared scope, & do a headcount per household – even if James is sleeping on your couch for a short while & is not normally a resident, how disturbing could it be to go where this extra person is sensed, & ask them: “You know someone was abducted recently, & we just have to account for extra household members – can I see everyone here?”

I would insure our infrared counts & household counts were accurate, were we to do this.

As I say we would want to prevent circumventions as well as abuse (abuse at police, et al levels).

It blinds me, this crime, & knocking on the rare house which is housing extra house members seems non-invasive enough.

((I would not even bust other petty crimes you find this way . . .  Else you’re getting too far from the point: rescue e.g. young women from abductions.

Please consider stopping abductions via satellite & headcounts this way, or refinements made to this, & also all tenable ways.

Thank you.

Joe.

Remember To Prioritize Our Interests Amid The Bustling, Sensational News Cycles

Feature Spread




Amid the bustling daily news cycle jumbling up one new sensational story in the stead of another national or international priority, *sustained effort* is important. Just like when you start to build a house, only seeing it thru gets the reward; building a house halfway & stopping is wasteful. Similarly, We must see our high priorities thru, & not bounce around all the new news stories like a pinball in a pinball machine, lifeless to urgency & importance.

*As news readers, viewers, & listeners,* make a list, prioritize it, put it somewhere you will look over it every day, probably.

We have things we need to tend to, & not merely be pushed less than gracefully thru one door then the next, leaving important things behind, unfinished. Politically, I suggest we prioritize, rather than get juked out by a flurry of sensational but at the end of the day, not our highest desires for helping people in need, resolving situations, & answering the goings on using the best practices extant to bring about our best lives.

Lastly, let’s also not forget the most important, timeless “goods” of Life: Goodness, Truth, Beauty, Happiness, & all the infinite rest should be commemorated in our Parthenons eternally.

Positive Enterprises: The Freedom Half Of Freedom & Responsibility

Feature Spread




Isn’t it great looking at the Pyramids at Giza — The Sphinx? — Or listening to a favorite or fitting song?

The question is, what problem did these solve?

The answer is, none, people created them because they felt like it —

& I would encourage us, with a history of death & destruction, negativity & guilt, to jump with all our weight sometimes into such positive enterprises; we don’t always have to be cleaning up after some problem; the abilities granted to us by having ‘free will’ are so full of opportunity, you’re as limited as your imagination in what you can do.

Build. Make. Create.

Have Fun With It.

Two Ideas For Political Feminism

Feature Spread




In early September, I got the spark of an idea for a political policy & scribbled it down in the margins of a daily newspaper — around the “cryptogram,” no less — since it was the only paper handily available . . .  I independently thought this policy direction up, myself – it was before “parental leave” was in the news or anything alike was on my radar.

Since, I’ve hatched a second plan idea along these lines, & will tie together the two strands in a single ponytail of a speech =)  

Without further ado —

I am a well-branded believer in the women of the world; I’ve partially identified as being a “feminist” since my mid-teens. have had very deep, strong female romances, friendships, & kinships; I have long admired Joan Of Arc, Mother Theresa, Hypatia, Pythagoras’s school’s female teachers; & I’ve even written about the dignifiedness & honorability of ruling-women & read up about female kings.

. . . . — Did you know there were only 6 Queens of England who inherited their father or uncle’s crown over 500 years? There were only 3 female kings in 2500 years of dynastic Ancient Egypt we know of for sure.

Lastly I am no expert; I am a man, with ‘the other facet’s view’ of all of you lovely lovable ladies; I am here working on a more understanding, loving, respectful — in what little my little man mind can provide — espousal of my personal ideas for feminist political thought that – you must also realize – are from a position where I can say some of the things you’d get a 2-ton anvil brought on you in terms of society’s response – because I’m a man & you women’re not.

I also would like to say that while I’d say put women in charge of women, not a man like me, I have a unique vantage point, like when you tell me about ‘the gossiping of women’ as a woman – I have the mirror privilege with men, & can call them on & out about things you may not be able to even know are actually, really done.

Lastly you also have a doubly-good friend in me, for this reason: I am sympathetic with both women wanting to be treated the same as men, in certain ways —

You’re a person just like I’m a person just like every other guy is a person — we’re all people & not too, too different, afterall —

& I’m also conversant with wanting to be respected & appreciated – maybe even admired, fondly — for your raw differences;

‘Like — for those interested in this — how getting pictures of yourselves dressed up in classée fashion fancifulnesses, on a ‘girls’ nite in,’ or getting a loud, psychedelic print, breve cut clubbing outfit on & losing yourself in the music, for a spell, are far removed from sitting in a dark basement smoking cigarettes & listening to bodily function sounds on the arm of your male friend for what seems like half the night.

Or an Ironman trek thru a cold mountainous region;

For many women, they notice both the lack of being treated the same in ways they should & also the honest-to-Goodness differences from men . . .  Like a haute look vs.a detractive sound effects, or clubbing vs. expeditions we may or may not return from.

These two are called “equality” & “difference” feminisms – if I had to translate it into pop songs: they’d be “I’m Just A Girl” & “Natural Woman,” each.

Let’s do my idea on difference feminism, (the “Natural Woman” one,) first:

. . . The dream – earning influence, wealth, glamour, via a thriving career; family maybe or maybe not being in the cards – or maybe ruled out completely . . .

Cleopatra . . .  Liliane Bettencourt (of L’Oreal) . . .  Gwen Stefani . . .

Because see, not all women feel like robotically making babies even if they’re of age . . .  Talent, desire,  wanderlust — having the chance of a lifetime within reach — a wide array of interests can lead you to walk a different lifepath than the asaid –

Just like enough men.

Here’s the ‘sticky widgets’ you might run into, tho, purusing these:

It is bred into our culture to oppose this libertine flourishing; the controllingness of pre-arranged marriages to being disallowed to own property, to being uncounted in voting — there *are* real reasons in Nature & history for some of women’s dependence on men, but these show some serious misogyny that our loving, wise, socially-adept, sensitive, realistic fairer companions should feel the power of intervention on their side correcting this that they do not deserve – whichever way you look at it.

(Forced) pre-arranged marriages, being kept from owning property, & not being able to vote are serious, grave historical transgressions; beyond these basic facts there is the culture created thereby – the atmosphere of upbringing, of the life you live, of “where you hang your hat” — a rather man-centric way of speaking, itself — typical of that that has affected – disaffected – like curling of ingrown toes’ nails – literally billions of women thruout history – from our huntergather origins to the present;

As I say, there are some natural reasons for this: foraging, hunting, building favored men. But we have civilized beyond this – praise the Heavens.

But repairing this damage done – from preventing from voting, now allowing to women own property & arranging their hands in marriage – repairing this history of damage takes more than just us having changed these & other, hopefully less egregious unacceptable laws to ones more aligned with Goodness, etc —

If we’re playing an endless game of “Monopoly” & I restrict half the players’ flow of resources for 50 rounds – just letting you now attain “equality” does not make it OK – we need to repair the damages from all the time we restricted.

& That is how I feel about that!

Changing gears now to my idea for your 2nd, more traditional, ‘Natural Woman’ interests:

I feel that it is an embarrassment – we as a people don’t provide for our women – our families . . .

– Income inequality is part of the reason why;

But I feel we have lost, in my view, the historical fact – a historical fact of Life – that someone has to nurture the kids, & someone has to provide the family’s food & valuables that could be exchanged for material things & services desired —

We have lost track of that to some degree in the great gear turns of our form of capitalism.

What is more important, men & women raising a family, or manufacturing “Blammo Logs” — for our civilization?

We know this answer: raising kids right is more important than nearly everything if not everything, for our future. Probably besides food it is the single biggest influence on us;

& Traditionally, both parents have done both, but the more brute man has typically provided the labor more so than a very loving, personable, sensitive, sensible mother; *she* traditionally provided Love & guidance & teaching, & sustenance & clothing, & other nurturing things, more frequently than a father has.

. . . What we say now as a society is, if you are a single parent or low-income family, we will help subsidize your kids’ food and/or childcare.

That’s excellent –

& It’s excellent because raising kids is so important —

But then why the hey now are we ignoring the other young children’s youth?

See Elizabeth Warren said we’re in a 2-income trap; & according to a study, *both parents work for about 3 out of 5 of our kids in America* —

So who is raising our kids? —

The Simpsons cartoons? . . .

This is serious & requires serious betterment.

We know by experience, by statistics, that a Loving family makes a Loving child.

Let’s provide for our women & parents providing the crux of our formative experiences, to provide for ourself as a civilization.

I propose /taxing the rich to provide for mothers who would otherwise have no choice but take time away from their children because they have to provide a decent standard of living;

— & I propose this be actually, slowly, & well considered, & once we have gathered the data / have become highly-informed / have understood the situation well, & hopefully understood & communicated the wise, sage principles that apply to doing this right – then with a willing consensus we should implement it as I’ve been saying to other things: in a slow, careful, self-informing roll-out of diverse systems guided by diverse visions of the final form, informing it with their responses, reviews, & other helpful information, until we have not only the best final system, but a subsumptively best system – one that uses the best parts of each . . .

Because, if you can find something more important to the personal growth of infants, toddlers, kids, adolescents, & even young adults — ranging from helpless to just learning the rules of the road of Life — than their parents’ Lovingkindness . . .  just inbox it to me.

2ndly I propose even dads, in the interest again of this foundation of personal growth for us a person & for us as a people: parenting, also get ‘quality time relief,’ to be a good influence on their sons & daughters, from their chosen occupation for a duration.

Because, “Log” just doesn’t compare to a kid’s snuggling with their parents, maybe by a fire, maybe even hot chocolate, & sharing their fears & dreams, stories & lessons learned, & learning the most important thing, perhaps: just how endless your Mother & Father’s Love for you as a kid, really is.

Let’s use our money to buy some quality time for our kids.

Thanks,
Joe

Courting & Relationships: How I Find Women Beautiful On The Inside, Too (A Sketch At A List By Joe Valentyn)

Feature Spread




Beauty is an Intense Good, but it isn’t all-important. As a (femisexual – in Love with Women) man, you can be attractive by stuff other than looks – a lot like you can be fair of face & breast – you can be Beautiful On The Inside by many character traits… Read on!:

Lilacs are pretty enough, and are hostess to very potent aromatic fragrances; this then makes them a Loved Flower of many – including me!

(“Beauty of Moscow” lilac variety, courtesy gardenerspath.com)

  • being fun / being playful / being brave / being adventurous / being exciting;
  • charming with charisma – jocking with wit – cunning with art;
  • being a ‘Love Scion’ or ‘Love Prodigy’ or ‘Love Genius’ (talented and/or skilled in “dating & relationships”);
  • having Luvable Favorites in music, politics, movies, & other arts; & even being a good judge of character;
  • being high-society, being a socialite;
  • being very sensual, being concupiscent, having nymphomania;
  • having abilities with music, literature, acting, etc;
  • having vivacity, life, being quirky, literal mania;
  • being passionate for something, maybe a good cause you like or people you Love, maybe even being good at your passion;
  • being real responsible re family; being good with kids, even your younger brothers or sisters if you’re young enough; caring, compassionate, empathetic, like say with animals… or the differently abled;
  • being wholesome, good-natured, well-rounded;
  • being ready to take a nap (ha ha) . . .

This list is not exhaustive; it is a personal sketch of how else to get attraction than what we all overappreciate, perhaps: fairness of face & breast.

I think this should be open to dialogue – something that will change, go thru phases, & get outgrown & missed all over again, as we live our lives.

Thank you for reading! =)

A gangly, smelly, hairy creature am I: a man; & alike my form my expressions also too sometimes get in the way of my what I’m really saying: these things & others make you Beautiful, in your looks, to uswe SEE your Beauty, then, more truly.

My (Very Modest) Tribute To A Great SPIRIT! In My Family, Shirley Valentyn, My Grandma……..

Feature Spread




This is a web I’ve wanted to make for a long time; this will be, when I’m done, a (modest) tribute to my Grandma Shirley Valentyn, née Shirley Wayne.

My “Gramma” helped raise me – my Mom was just 20 when she had me;

My Grandma Shirley Valentyn (Shirley Wayne)

My Grandma was very independent, strong-willed, & free-spirited — she was also the center jewel of our family: Christmases were held under her leadership, at her house.

She loved to read, would read books to me & take me to church. I still remember packing up my little “Going To Grandma’s” toddler suitcase & staying up late watching movies, waking up & going to church.

She used computers before anyone I knew in my family – she had her personal computer she used probably daily – she had a subscription to a monthly software club, where they’d send her software (On Disk Monthly? Something like that); She was using them regularly in the early 1990s as a woman in her late 50’s / early 60’s; she introduced me to them & gave me my first computer & my first Nintendo.

She even played Super Mario Bros. with me: she called them “Marr-io Brothers,” haha; I still remember her playing Mario Bros 3 with me (among the other computer games she played) & thinking she was probably the coolest Grandma I could possible have gotten.

I remember being absolutely head over heels about “going to Gramma’s,” & would fish off her dock & ride scooters & riding lawnmowers, & do New Year’s there with my cousins Marissa & Ashley, & a blue Mickey Mouse fold-up clamshell alarm clock by my bed when I’d sleep.

I remember when she was on her deathbed, literally, at home on a medical bed, she used some of the last of her strength to say, “Joey, you just do whatever you want . . .

Just like when you were young.” That she’d helped raise me makes that bring tears to my eyes, every time; that was her dying wish for me.

I loved my Grandma very much & made a tape of what I thought based on what my Dad said were her favorite songs, along with some ambient works by Brian Eno when she was passing. I also composed a full song for her that she she heard before she left. She was 65 I think, I was 18.

I know – in my way – that she never really left;

Gramma taught me better than that.

Love & Miss her; & I love my Grandpa, her husband, who still is with us, here.

Songpoem: “Sex Positive (The F-Bomb) ((The Female Element)) (((Make Love Not War)))”

Feature Spread




Here’s a new version of the poem I’ve been working on this month, I mentioned & posted an earlier version of, a bit ago.

 

 

.: Sex Positive, A.K.A. The F-Bomb ((Make Love Not War)) :.

{Sample:}
“Don’t you want somebody to Love
Don’t you need somebody to Love
Wouldn’t you Love somebody to Love –
You’d better find somebody to Love . . .

. . . Love. ”
{:Fade out}

in the nineteen sixties the Love Generation did more than protest
‘threw panties at Paul, their Mary Tyler’s got a lot of Dick
they blew-out our understandings of what being feminine is
’cause hundreds of millions of females were sex positive

(sex positive . . . )

(sex positive . . . )

{Old, Vietnam Age Father Figure Voice:}
“& Don’t lose faith in that female element, son . . .  ’cause–”
{:}

’cause in the middle a’ brutish Vietnam
those Love chicks dropped The “Fuck Me” Bomb
said “Psst; over here son, wouldn’t you rather we be making some Love?
— go bury your guns in the ground,

& Fuck Me till i cum ——–

inside . . .

See, don’t you know where you come from, son?
you come from Two Lovers making Love – – –

Yeah, ’cause Love is Special – ‘specially when Love is True
& anyway, Love is Beautiful – Loving’s gotta be The Most Beautiful Thing We Do

& Love makes us Happy, we’d do it all the time, if we could —
Really, Love is The Best — the Ultimate Good —

& one more tidbit is true:
Loving is a Miracle – *LOVE* *MADE* *YOU*.

. . . so which one will it be:

stalk & kill some guy in the jungle,

or come & fuck me . . .

come & fuck tiiiiiiiiii–ny little me”

& with come hither eyes she leaned forward & gave a fatal look at her tits . . .  & with a little kiss, she said,

I Will Make So Much Love To You YOUR DICK WILL FALL OFF . . .

. . . . . .

& she appeared to him as a sex goddess, well

right then & there, his Life was changed
he quit being a G. I. & couldn’t help falling in Love with Jane
provided her a house & name,
always kept up, his Father’s faith,

he strove to provide her cruises & glamour
built her confidence up poundin’ her like a hammer

& when she felt that house had become a Home,
she said after reviewing her budget planner

let’s have a baby,
i want to turn us into a family

— i want THREE
one for you, *TWO* for me

raised up Three Kids, all the right way;

made them upright & happy, thru teaching & thru play

& yknow, each kid thrived, each in their own way

& he told her he Loved her almost every day . . .

& Jane always Loved to hear him say,

“I was blown away by a booby trap, that day . . .
in the middle of ‘Nam – never was the same;
they dropped the F-Bomb
Nineteen Sixty-Seven
Summer of Love
blew us all to Heaven”

& there was news headlines, & news announcements, & news segments, & news conversations:

*LOVE* had won The War On The War.

{Predominantly-Females Chanting:}
“Make Love,
Not War!

Make Love,
Not War! . . .

Make Love,
Not War!

Make Love,
Not War . . . ”
{:}

{Sample:}

One Two Three FOUR!

Well she was
just
seventeen
& you know
what i mean,
& the way she looked
was way beyond compare

so how could i dance with another – oooh

when i saw her standing there . . .

I have earlier ‘sex positive’ songs/poems, dating back to ((I can’t find the date)); this poem on ABOUT sex positivity itself was conceived, oh, about a year ago – started August 31, announced September 2nd, of this year;

Without further ado: I hope you like my work, here! =D!

 


.: Sex Positive, A.K.A. The F-Bomb, A.K.A. The Female Element :.
.: ((Make Love, Not War)) :.

{Sample:}
“Don’t you want somebody to Love
Don’t you need somebody to Love
Wouldn’t you Love somebody to Love –
You’d better find somebody to Love . . .

. . . Love. ”
{:Fade out sample}

in the nineteen sixties the Love Generation did more than protest
they threw panties at McCartney, their Mary Tyler’s got a lot of Dick
they blew-out our understandings of what feminine is
’cause hundreds of millions of females were sex positive

(sex positive . . .)

(sex positive . . .)

{Old, Vietnam Age Father Figure Voice:}
“& Have faith in that female element, son; ’cause–“

{Poet/singer:}
’cause in the middle of, brute Vietnam
those Love chicks dropped, The “Fuck Me” Bomb:
said psst, over here son, wouldn’t you rather make some Love?
Bury your guns in the ground, & Fuck Me till i cum ——–

inside . . . “

({Predominantly-Females Chanting:}
“Make Love,
Not War –
Make Love,
Not War . . . ”
{:Chant})

“‘Cause, don’t you know where you came from son?
you came from two lovers making Love – – –

Yes! See . . .  Love is Special, & Love is True,
Love is Beautiful, & Love made YOU!! —

So since Love = 1, & Love comes from Two
— & guns, guns make you annulled, which would you rather choose:

run thru some jungle, doing some very stupid stuff . . .

or come & fuck little tiiiiny me . . . ?

little itsy tiny me? . . . “

{spoken:}
& she leaned forward & gave a generous look at her tits . .  rubbed them in his face . . .  she was a sex goddess— –

. . .
{spoken:}
well right then & there, his heart was changed
he quit being a G. I. & fell in love with that Jane
provided for her, a house & status —
multiplied like rabbits
told her how much he Loved her almost every day

& Jane always loved to hear him say

“I was blown away by a booby trap, that day . . .
back then, couples in the millions did, that way . . .
it was A Sea Of Lovers,
millions of significant others,
Love, The Summer of . . .
They dropped the F-Bomb on us . . .

1967.”

& there was news headlines, & news announcements & news segments – the war on war had ended: Love had won.

{chipper, casual, late 20’s woman’s voice, not unlike Anne Hathaway:} & They lived happily ever after.

THE END!
{:chipper, causual female voice}

Sexual Healing —- For Real

Feature Spread




Pretend your Loved-&-cherished is of course unspeakably beautiful to you *but she once said in her mind she is 30 pounds overweight* –

Tell her sexually that

“30 pounds is nothing. You are beautiful.”

Then proceed to f*** her brains out until ‘her eyes ain’t moving, now’ ((they just lay there in their climb…))

=D That is one way to cure a hang-up your lover has.

I would love to leave it at that, but it is best I also say I would do this mostly or only in a strategic, very thought thru way, saying precisely what you planned to – not improvising at all. (Receive your lover’s response & respond as or *if* needed, minimally.)

Do this because it’s needed, not just because you want to without thinking.

(If someone does this ‘imperfectly’ for you, forgive them. They meant well, of course.)


We call this sexual “healing” but actually ‘personal-growth’ as it is called could easily be slipped in.

This might be a little brave. I will leave it here to not destroy the very fabric of society. ^_^

Happy Trails.

Like A Great Year For Wine, 1997 Was A Great Year For Us In Culture

Feature Spread




Some say 1997 was the best year for different wines – like a vintage wine itself, I’ve already uncorked my belief that 1997 was a particularly fine year for culture on some of my communication media; so as much as I’d love to work this up more, today I thought I’d pour us a glass or two of 1997 culture daydreaming:




Remember “Life Is Beautiful?” – Roberto Benigni’s infant-like perfection – like a serenade to the world – something truly, to the point of happy… beautiful tears, beautiful itself, Life Is Beautiful is without a doubt my favorite movie I’ve ever happened across.

A(nother) Last Legislative Thought: Romance In Schools: Beyond — Or Perhaps More Foundational Than — Sex, To Love

Feature Spread




Hey there. I think & have said the government may want to consider working us less; we must balance striving for the economy with the enjoyability of our lives, in the interest of “the pursuit of happiness” (as, for example, measured in the gross national happiness index);

& This balancing of work with play, play with work, also goes for schools.

I have shared my ideas for new classes/classroom-focuses in the past – some of those ideas, thru whichever means they did, did get traction – but today I’m flipping ahead to a brand new one.

Some of us would say it is the most important one, & one that doesn’t really exist in the way I think we would like, in our highest desire.

Let me put it this way: what I remember of sex ed, was watching a video of an already-pregnant woman giving birth, & us putting a condom on a banana.

What I am envisioning is something more inclusive, & more cultivated: a Dating & Relationships class – personal romantic relationships shared 1-on-1 with rotating teachers — for all intents: “Love gurus” — strictly — *strictly* — voluntarily, & general imagery (with parents’/guardian’s permission per student,) love story movies, (such as Life Is Beautiful,) books of classic romance stories, magazines of teen (& perhaps all-ages) romance topics & advice, etc, as well as oral history &/or documentaries, & love songs & poems, etc – taken to their deepest romantic conclusions, in discussion, for the general gather-together class, perhaps with a special (since Love *is* so special,) class made up of those interested in each other, possibly with rather frequent (as dating is frequent) dates / alone time in parks, at movies, or wherever the kids are hep on, as voted on by them, completely consensually, as field trips.

If the venereal diseases, films of pregnant women giving birth of “sex education” are our “talking about the birds & bees,” this would be our “talking about the birds, & the bees, & butterflies, & the trees, & (…), & (…), & (…), & (…), & (…) … & (∞)” talk, indefinite & as everywhere-touching of topics as Love itself.

I have to say the momentous, really ‘solar’ significance of Love would make it way difficult; it is hallowed but important, so these would be important, good experiences to have for them, done right.

I would take *a long time* to formulate, experiment, & re-formulate the guidelines for our society’s desired teaching of this; but I think Love goes beyond sex, & this therefore has a place in education, given the gravitas of Love in Life.

From old couples coming in & talking about what kept them together, what kept them loyal, what kept them coming back in some cases; to edgier cultural movements like sex positivity, such as in magazines like Playboy, at the right age, we should focus on Love qua quintessential Love: Romance.

Thank You!

P.S. & I just have to say it: maybe, where appropriate — say on the dates — we could “allow kissing in school.” It’s not exactly evil =)

To a better world;
Thank you.

Diplomacy, Love, Goodness, Fun & Looseness, & An Additional 3 Important Ideals

Feature Spread




I know this is the 3rd time I have posted this, but I really believe in these things, & really want to share them with you.

This ideas get me so worked up, & altho what I will say will be truly brief on them, you could spend a long time thinking about things like Love & the others.

Here is what I will say: When I consider the Diplomacy, Love, Goodness, Fun & Looseness “Ways To Act,” I myself interject Health & Safety after Love, half the time; & further, when I drafted this poster last winter, I omitted what many call Justice, but what may itself be best/better understood as Fairness, from the whole poster.

((It probably would’ve got its own row.))

So those 3 – Health, Safety, & Justice/’Fairness’, you could thus add to these golden ideals.

Also, as I’ve said, these & all words worth their while, are like courses, themselves . . .  ones you will learn from all thruout the rest of your Life.

Let’s learn from all the great ideals & use them to have thriving, happy, well-Loved Lives.

30 Ideas For Community, Fun, & Culture In America

Feature Spread




Continued from this April article.

* * * *

In 2013 I had time to work out 30 ideas for the American community that are designed to nurture Community, Fun, & Culture.

In the order they came to me, here’re 30 ideas designed to nurture Community, Fun, & Culture in America:

1) music downtown (we could ‘scrobble’ / use play statistics so we hear the community’s favorites)

2) fairs permanently installed

3) coffeeshop-like community centers – also good places to meet people, for all purposes

4) medallion hunt-style games; other, yet to be imagined fun ‘physical’ software-games

5) live performers – theatrical, firebreathers, musicians, comedians – on streets – subsidized. (our level of culture could be *historic*)

6) skate sections of cities – spray-paint-able (“graffiti”) sections of communities – outlet for art

7) library stands – with coffee

8) community bonfires – music

9) community shared (‘sterilized’) instruments & other wares – perhaps a jam room at a community center or library analogue, where community members could jam together in spontaneous get-together jams, & teach & learn audio mastering & music instruction, including care of instruments. A ‘musician’s library’

  • other artforms’ hardware for free library-like lending

10) more community gardens – stands for selling the produce & juices.

11) community mud-wrestling & music festivals

12) trained city dogs

13) (more) community bike programs.

14) horse rides (like 4-H)

15) local Olympics

16) arcade battle tags

17) (this one is ‘too cool for school,’ I have to share it another time)

18) symposiums: local presentations of ideas – wider, freer variety of topics

19) donated services – e.g. audio engineering/recording to less established musicians

20) farmers’ markets more frequent than once a week – juicings there (fruit smoothies & veggie juices)

21) art appreciations – showing off amateur art for appreciation & responses

22) healthy wants food & juice displays – many chefs, doctors/nutritionists/natural health doctors discussing benefits or food samplings

  • recipes
  • health facts (RDVs & general health facts)
  • make food, interested people can watch how it’s done,
  • out in a park, mobile kitchens/stoves/ovens

23) public arcade games

24) community drive-in theatres – free popcorn

25) youth groups – age ranges

26) woods walks – led by guides (plump up the funding for all these things)

27) band ‘open mics’ – amateur band performance

  • informal-er music shows, like “open mics”
  • maybe at music department of “community center” – maybe a park – I know this is sort of done already, but to consciously single it out as something to nurture will make musicians & music-appreciators happier

28) apprenticeships – learn to be a firefighter, a monk, a comedian etc

29) (courtesy of my friend Aaron Y.) activity centers for youth – pool tables, arcade games, other needs & wants – open especially in small towns where there’re only diners open at night

30) community social commons – not just outdoors but indoors – all forms of socializing, from romancing to sharing battle-scars – maybe even free alcohol within limits.

That’s it!

Send any Love for these my way!

July 4th Internet Writing From When I Was A Teenager

Feature Spread




This post is not actually from July 3rd, but for technical reasons (…), I was not able to post it yesterday. =)

This is from a writing I did when I was 18 about going to the fireworks on America’s Birthday — July 4th. I can’t vouch for the quality of my teenage writing, but in the spirit of the holiday, here it is all the same:

Hope you like:

Skipping to the Good Parts: sitting against an electransformer in fresh green grass, rather Freshness manifest as green grass, the latent familiarity of 4th of july flash-boom-wow-ness came back (…). Sentimentality never gets old.

A wee-one was half a block away starring the show for her family outloud:

“I dedicate this one to . . mybestfriend KATY!!ooh,thats.<chromatic-flash>WowyBOOM…OOOH!
“I dedicate th-<BOOM>-Idedicatethisone, to Mom&Dad!!..Happy Birthday!” <swirlyflash,boom(crackles)>..”It feels like its coming At me!!”

I secretly admired Youth-Happening a half-block behind me until my what-am-I-getting-out-of-this spun the twister-spindial of my mind & somehow, against all the oddsmaker’s best reckonings, came out (moderately) cogent: each flashboom as a burst of pure, abstract Independence; a new nation emerging, a bolt of thought striking out to new territory, a willful ignorance of Authority so as to Author one’s own story. & Each image of color-sparkles as the radicals’ Outcome, as history’s snapshot-memento, (…).

The flashbooms were awesomely beautiful in no cheap sense of the words; the memory is of course only a fraction of the experience itself.., but I can never shake the feeling that all my memories are these reconstructable holographic fractals, different facets of which are summoned quasi-consciously, with the commandibility of a mysterious & primitive control-panel (…)

…which reminds me: Whatcha Eatin Under There??

Thanks.

Happy Birthday America.

Follow-Up To “Re: Computers”: Cultural Subsidization Helps Our Civilization Grow, Culturally – Let’s

Feature Spread




This is a continuation of my last communique on this, titled “Re: Computers.”


 

‘Culture subsidization’ is simply a generalization of what we already know is Good: the subsidization of the public library.

It is in Our Civilization – The Whole World’s – interest to help People learn & grow as People, using, for this article’s purposes, cultural works like books, applications, audio lectures, movies, music, & documentary videos.

I am saying we need to import all the great ideas of written history into the
foundations of this new Information Age medium – the computer / The Internet –

Books especially.

That is because books carry 6,000 years of culture – the estimated history of writing;

We need to absorb, integrate, & graft books’ & all forms of cultural works’ ideas into this
new communications medium.

That is why I. today, present the strategic moves of both digitizing books & each category of cultural work – not by commercial forces like Google or Amazon, but not-for-profit & government organizations; & 2ndly making them free, thru what we just affirmed – cultural subsidization, like we do in public libraries – letting people learn & grow as people, & Our Civilization to culture – so we make smarter decisions in the future – as opposed to burning fossil fuels in high quantity for a century.

Let’s pay for People’s learning & also their personal growth, via (e)books, audio lectures & documentaries, movies & music, & other cultural works – just like we have for eons with the public library system.

We help pay for education, agriculture, & other basic staples in Life –

Digitizing & subsidizing essentially every book, & also digitizing & subsidizing documentaries, movies, audio lectures, music, applications, photographs, & the like will help us make make smarter choices, live more fulfilled lives, & just make the experience of Life more enjoyable for everyone.

Let’s Pay For Learning & Growth Thru Books, Videos, Audio, & All Cultural Works.

Thanks.
J.V.

 


 

As a note: What I’m discussing is *not* becoming too fascinated with computers & their very recent ‘cave paintings’ ((that’s my new lyric by the way, don’t steal it =))), as novel & at times meaningful as they may be – but to drink of the whole of human culture, the true bottomless vintage wine-cellar of Man’s written works thruout history, that whets the tongue most-grandestly.

Healthiest Things I Know, Part Two – Love & Positivity/Optimism, To Be Happy

Feature Spread




 

4-PART COMMUNIQUE:

HEALTHIEST THINGS I KNOW

June 29th, 2015

 

FOR THE HAPPIESTNESS OF YOUR HEART, THE #1 WAYS I KNOW ARE: LOVE & OPTIMISM/POSITIVITY.

 

Ever since about a decade or less ago, when I saw a pair of bunnies on Youtube.com that were somewhat bemusingly named “Healthiness” & “Happiness,” I have been fascinated by these two threads of well-being; I covered the overall best way I know to attain healthiness of the body in my last issuance of this 4-part communique; today’s block will focus on happiness, of of-course the spiritual/emotional heart rather than the cardio-heart.

I really believe in Love – I believe it is probably the single best thing for your personal well-being.

Living in Love will provide you with the best Life, which is best for your body, your spiritual-heart, your cognition, & your soul.

But I am going to focus on Positivity/Optimism, here.

Because there’s one very important belief I have found, since being a teenager: Things are what you make them; for the largest part & with what you do with them. Life is then a collection of all the things we have made it, along with the things we cannot control. This says we should go with the ‘hot hand’ – whoever is radiating that eudaimonic attitude & self-actualized being at this very moment;

But for each of our own responsibilities, over our own Lives, Optimism & Positivity will help us make the most of, & appreciate the most in, Life.

I feel this does the most or nearly the most for making us happiest.

What is Positivity?

Positivity is a way of seeing people & things: you see the best things in each of them; this helps you get the most out of them, & nurture them.

Optimism is a way of approaching things: it is where you believe that “I can do this,” for everything you actually can accomplish.

(I have said it is best to have a “Tempered Optimism,” having spread a belief in Optimism & Positivity for around 10 years or so in popular English philosophy forums: not “I can fly,” but more an unlimitedness – stemming from our I-believe unlimited human potential – tempered by the confidence we have in our abilities based on experience, & based on the content we have planned to execute, or perform: for example, the goodness of our manuscript’s story, should inspire a good deal of confidence in our performance of it.)

Those are the definitions.

How I Learned Positivity

Flash back half my Life, amid the turmoils of depression, at 17 years young:

I chose Positivity over some much more unsavory options, to help get thru a depression from a break up of a long high school relationship with a girl –

&, I can say 15 years later:

Not much has served me better, than choosing to be Positive.

Why Is It So Good?

Well, when you start looking for how good things COULD be, you will find ways that actually get you there – to the ‘place’ where things actually ARE good.

Doesn’t Being Positive Mean Being Fake – I Don’t Want To Be Fake!

If you tell this to a depressed person, some will say “It’s fake, I don’t want to be fake.”

As important as ‘being true,’ ‘having integrity’ can be, if you are severely depressed something is more important than being integrous: being alive.

If you have to answer the very hard question, Would I rather be dead, or a little bit “fake,” but alive, & honestly actually having good times again, maybe even helping others – just by correcting something actually worse: being excessively negative, & by choosing to be Positive/Optimistic?, I hope you choose Life over endless rule-following or perfectionism.

When considering taking on Positivity/Optimism into your own Life, or presenting it to someone else, consider a fruit-bearing tree, transplanted to your yard, takes root – it will grow fine, just like other trees.

. . . Likewise transplanting a belief in Positivity, a supremely healthy thing, into your beliefs, whatever they may be, will itself grow still, & will bear much & great fruit for you – for the rest of your life.

So, if you are depressed, even tho you might have to force it at-first, it becomes natural & produces much happiness & personal growth for you.

* * *

For the rest of us, Optimism & Positivity will help you make the most of your Life’s opportunities, & get the most out of everything that comes into your Life.

Positivity & Optimism also do wonders for your Lovelife & social-life – think of socialitic graciousness, as well as virile displays of power-doing, for example.

* * *

I will close with a couple helpful, inspiring quotes:

One time, A Wisewoman in my Life said to me, “Life is a feast full of starving fools;

Dig in.”

The Bible says similar: “For the despondent, every day brings trouble; for the happy heart, life is a continual feast.” – Proverbs 15:15.

Eat Up – Life is a Feast =)

Thank You.
Joe Valentyn

P.S. For my part, I cured my depression, mostly thru choosing & making into a natural attitude, being Positivity; but there were a few other things I am going to break from the natural course of this 4-part communique on & share, because they helped me & I hope others heal their hearts/emotions from depression:

Love – Live in Love; if you have just come off a romantic relationship, this may in fact come last, rather than first, but as you may’ve guessed, it is still hugely important. ‘Love is the answer;’ it is the guiding force of Man; Live In Love for maximal fruits in Life.

People – Be Around People – not always to share deeply your problems, fears, & the like, tho that too. But just feeling connected & knowing People do live in happiness, even if they have been thru breakups, losing loved ones, & other vicissitudes is hugely helpful. They can provide some things you may not, if they are a trusted friend, parent, or the like. Push Yourself To Be Around People.

Time – looking back, severe depression seems crazy – it no longer makes any sense to consider killing yourself, etc: *That is why Giving Stuff Time will help you see things clearly – after all, “hindsight is 20/20.”*

Change – Change Your Routines – A rut is what I call it when we get into a habit of doing stuff which is draining, deleterious, or otherwise less than desirable. Change It Up: Do a new, good habit where you used to do a sagging, bad habit. Change Your Routine. You could try new things: go for walks in Nature, go to shows, start to write, watch comedy, reconnect with old friends, vary your experiences in some way that gives you more of what you need/want, while also swapping out a non-great routine. Changing Your Routines from draining or deleterious ones to nurturing, nourishing ones will have a doubly-good effect: in with the good, out with the bad. This may be exactly what you need.

The most important way to heal emotionally, I would still say is Positivity/Optimism. When you start to believe you can do so much, you will light like a flame on paper – & this – Optimism/Positivity – is almost-necessary to most fully self-actualize. Positivity presents things in their best light – gives you the best thing about them – & lets you get the most out of them. Purely from a functional standpoint, both are ‘fly,’ haha.

– Joe

P.P.S. I would also briefly add regular, vigorous, or as vigorous as you safely can, exercise & also probiotic cultured foods like kefir or sauerkraut, particularly ones where the probiotic bacteria number in the trillions, not millions or billions, if you can, may help quite a bit.

Sodium deficiency also has been said to be able to cause depression – so you could consider getting the test recommended, or just add a moderate amount more Himalayan or sea salt to taste & see what that does for you.

Thank You.

A Kernel Of Defense For Populism

Feature Spread




This is not a response to the “free trade deal” that recently advanced, but it certainly may apply, as well to a large number of other things.


Also, altho I’ve had this to say for around a year, credit to E. J. Dionne for recently mentioning this/a similar point in a write-up of his recently in The Washington Post:

Bernie Sanders: The new St. Nick


 

We are a social species – a community – a single group all together – Life is not an Ironman contest for the ‘survival of the fittest;’

& Anyone whose stated mission is to help “99%” of people flourish, is obviously on the side of “Us” – The World.

The fact is, things like economic populism help secure basically-Everyone’s being provided for; & that is much closer to the final purpose of Government – the point at infinity –  the full self-actualization of Government to a Government of Utopia.

Healthiest Things I Know, Part One – Juicing, To Be Healthy

Feature Spread




4-PART COMMUNIQUE:

HEALTHIEST THINGS I KNOW

TO GET THE MOST LONGLIVED HEALTH OF THE BODY, THE #1 WAY I KNOW IS: JUICING.

My Grandfather was, & My Mom still is today, obsessed with vegetables – & to a lesser degree, fruit. That is one of the best things I have learned from My Mom & My Grandfather, & I am wanting to spread that Love to you, here & now, if it pleases you.

Your death risk is slashed – 42%! – if you manage to eat 7 servings of vegetables & fruits a day.

That’s amazing.

How Can You Best Get 7 Servings?
I would say, making fresh, preferably organic, mostly-vegetable juice, especially largely from sprouts, is probably the best way.

(Varied salads are a close 2nd, but you’d have to eat 14 cups (the measuring unit) of leafy greens to get 7 servings of veggies, they say.)

Why Juicing?

According to Stanford Medicine Cancer Institute, 1 cup (8 oz) of celery juice contains most nutrients found in 5 cups’ worth of munched-on celery. (I have heard really only the fiber is missing; that means 2 things: for one, my understanding is that you will absorb more nutrients from the freshly juicered vegetable juice & faster, ((because fiber is so difficult to digest,)) but it also means, you need fiber from other sources – i.e. juicing alone is not enough. Salads, nuts & seeds are good sources of fiber.)1

A smaller amount of fruit – a lemon or lime, for example, juiced fresh into your plant juice – will make it taste great; importantly this makes it much more likely you will drink it often, if it tastes good, thereby slashing your overall risk of death by almost half.

The best thing I have heard tho, I’d like to tell you, is juicing vegetable sprouts – hemp, if it is legal where you are, or watercress sprouts are the top 2 I know of I will give for examples, tho I have never tasted hemp sprouts themselves personally –– only heard of their powerhouse nutrition  –– juicing sprouts like these gives anywhere from 10 to 100X the nutrition, pound for pound, of their healthy adult versions.2

I would have at least 2, &, ideally, I would estimate *4* mostly-vegetable juices a day to be pretty wonderful for your health.

When considering whether to start juicing, you might think of it this way: What better thing to invest in than more Life & better Life, for me or my family, or people?

If you DO want to juice, then, this “report” has a good recipe / recipe system for starting off – one that is both very tasty & very healthy:

http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2011/11/13/benefits-of-juicing.aspx 3

The last thing I’ll say is I’ve read what seems like thousands of anecdotes, & there’s scantly a condition I have heard of that people have not testified that juicing is helpful for

If you like Life, or have a health problem already, I would say most often juicing fresh organic vegetables will help tremendously.4

To see results, give it a few weeks or longer.

Therefore, I suggest juicing – meaning juice which is mostly fresh organic vegetables – as the best general thing you can do for your health & longevity.

The next part, on the healthiest things I know for happiness  the largest part of emotional health  is now at http://joevalentyn.org/press/2015/06/29/healthiest-things-i-know-part-two/

(1) On salads: I believe moderately indulgent dressings – but still kicking MSG to the curb & also healthy fish, poultry & eggs are fine on salads. I also believe in (the healthiest you can get) salt, black pepper (peppercorn), butter, sour cream, & even cream cheese, if you’re using it to hook someone on, or lure them to, amazingly healthy foods.

(2): Sprouts are not hard to grow & you can grow them indoors year-round, with a couple easy-enough daily maintenance jobs. They’re 1/10th the cost of buying them at the grocery store, & you can grow organic seeds with organic soil at a very affordable cost.

(3): www.mercola.com in general is a massively good site for health information, in my opinion. Joseph Mercola was an early critic of Vioxx, for example, a drug that killed 60,000 people & in the long run got banned.

(4): I would not use it as my only tool against cancer: check on Dr. Mercola’s advice, in that case in particular;

Dr. Stanislaw Burzynski’s “antineoplastons” may be good;

Also, cannabis oil is renowned to be effective for some/all types of cancer; I will have to do a lot more reading before I have good recommendations, but those are two leads I have found, that I feel reasonably comfortable giving as ideas.

For people with immune-system-related problems, such as you’re developing allergies, have dysbiosis of the gut & therefore acid reflux or other belly issues, or have an infection of some kind, I would recommend lacto-fermented foods made at home, which are up to 200X as strong as even the strongest probiotic pills; they are about as easy to make as hot chocolate. Use starter cultures. Body Ecology is the brand I use.

Take probiotics long enough apart from, if you are taking them, antibiotics.

Thank You.

{ . . .When we talked again, I had one more Cupid’s arrow to send out on this:

from my notes I said:}

“- i just have one question – when you found your wife, your girlfriend, your love interest, did you measure her vital signs – was she “the one” because she had good blood pressure, her pupils weren’t too dilated, her lips weren’t too pink — is that how you chose your Love? — or was it something amazing, beyond human describibility, perhaps something mystical —-”

{John laughed & agreed, in the short time for conversation we had.}

Love is the greatest thing you can get.

Love is the greatest thing you can gift.

Savor every moment of it.

How About Making Analogs To The Library & Community Center?

Feature Spread




The library was a smash hit, as far as people’s endeavors in societal institutions go.

Very basically, we took something we wanted to encourage – learning – subsidized it, & we thus then civilized for millennia.

Yes we took money from the rich, a lot of them were hard working; yes we gave it to the less fortunate in a certain form.

But that made learning a hallmark of our society, a staple we resoundingly support.

The result was, we civilized – we grew as a world community, because we made libraries; so THAT is what we should model further library analogs to.

The community center is a great start. We want Health (not to mention community) for our people not just because it makes business sense for our financial bottom line – we want it because IT’S GOOD FOR US. That is more important.

Let’s look at what we want to encourage. A lot like Elizabeth Warren’s proposal that we should make college affordable — if not free, really I think — consider the great goods of civilization we want to nurture, not just the ugly crimes we want to remove: Love — make socializing that happens to be fertile for courting *a community sanctioned institution*. I really am saying play matchmaker, because Love is Good for us.

Maybe say Usefulness – why not have a ‘community center’ institution that borrows useful tools, very many need but only half of us can afford? Tools make our homes more cozy, our equipment functional.

— Let those who’ve been given harder lots check out a blood pressure kit from the “library” — or a oximeter — Why not?

What about the arts – including files on the internet – that inspire us? Is it better one guy, no matter how ‘hard he worked’, have 16 yachts, or do we by birthright deserve to subsidize artists & have copious amounts of art works – mp3s, books, pictures & art — in as much that is feasible? (Some of that is done on the margins already, in libraries, but we should make it done by right – by law – in our society.)

& What about research – yes they deserve pay, but should medical & other knowledge really be commercially restricted to those who can pay say 35$ for each & every study they want to read – whether it contains the information they’re looking for or not?

Is that best for our civilization? You have to ask yourself that . . .

One more – what about Fun? We focus on “the economy” so much as adults, we prescribe 5 days of work on average every 7 day week, we forget that kids know Life better than us in some ways . . . Let me explain: I remember seeing how denatured my parents were at 13, 14, 15, 16 — & this whole childhood thing was just something to do in the margins — let’s fund Childhood. Let’s make it great for our kids; they love fun – give them fun. They love to play, let them play. They love hanging out, let’s help them hang out. How many small towns have too little for their kids to do when they’re home from school – I’m talking about roller skating, hang outs, skate parks. As weird as it sounds, let’s take Fun seriously – it’s no small coin in this realm.

Thanks for reading!

Poem: Play House

a poem i just wrote, have a looksee:

the heart,
waterfalls in our blue lagoon
really hitting a stride –
i love you to the moon

& back

i’m ecstatic that
you love me
too

makes me think back,

to how in my slush puppy days
deadly hot girls asked for an orgy with me,
& when i was of age, it was the season opener of jailbait,
we smoked opium & cannabis, in the back of our hippie buses, too

wearing fake vampire fangs
girlfriends with cartoony imaginations
fooling around all day & all night in her room

playing just to play

might as well’ve had bunnyrabbit ears,
& a little puffy cottontail — oo

then in the days i laughed at businessmen,
it was flip flops,
across the u.s. southwest
Greyhounds,
& soundtracks,
holing up in
rabbitholes

yeah #philosophy was a stronghold
for the too cool for school

then subplots branched,
& bled, & hatched
the stork of Life
delivered me the romance,
that i
always dreamed of

yes as i’m riding a street cruiser
into my middle life

i’m happy to say i got my dream wife

some may think otherwise
but i know it’s all about happily marrying
the same person
living in a always honeymoon

blue lagoon waterfalls, are all i want to see now
i love you to the moon & back,
i captured my queen

& the lovebirds sing:

we live
in permanent
ecstasy
{backup singers: tell the truth! me: i do!}

we write
letters,
like teenage girls
write in their diary

– there’s the american
flag,
& a cross hanging in her cleavage . . . . .

talking sticks,
& presses of blueprints
strategy board soapboxing

& the quick & the dead –
crying from happiness
life’s easter eggs
& another umpteen zillion,
sublime groves,
& primes to rock & roll,
i got your message,
i’d die to play house with you

the first birdchirp of the year has cracked
blooming in a week are thee lilacs —
everything Earthly in Spring is beginning anew

& so you again too (whyyyy)
well since it’s better to live than it is to die
thus then therefore it’s better to thrive than merely survive

so as thee poets become babbling brooks,
& the sprouts are shooting up from their roots
let me tell you, the birds & the bees are currently getting struck by Eros Cupid

yes, now, the squirrels frolick in their pairs,
lovebirds singing everywhere
lovebirds singing everywhere,
that precious song
that is Love
is in the air

so as you scrub your spring cleanin’
you have a reason to be beaming
mr right is right here or if he’s elsewhere, he has a clue

Survey Finds 93% Of Fruit & Vegetable Varieties Lost In 80 Years – Another Finds Over Half Of Wildlife Gone In Just 40 Years

Feature Spread




Oh, no big deal: according to National Geographic, 93% of fruit & vegetable varieties have gone extinct in the years 1903 to 1983. Loss after that is not estimated.

Couple this with 52% slaughter/loss of wildlife in the last 40 years,1 2 3 & you should understand why I am an environmental warrior. Human mismanagement is a drastically serious concern.

Combine losing virtually all our fruit & vegetable heirlooms, with over half of the living, breathing wildlife in 40 years, with climate change, something as many as 98% of geological/climate scientists signed onto being “real” & “man-made,” & it seems like we are not going to live for long on this planet, everybody, without taking environmentalism seriously – more seriously than war, more seriously than economics.

Congressmen who are not for massive overhaul of our environmental protection are against it – & against humanity.

 

we will not live long on this planet if we kill 93% of our vegetables & fruits, further drink Monsanto’s newest “mystery concoction” that are GMO’s on a widespread basis, kill half of the world’s needed animals in 40 years, & pollute & desertify the place where we are living to the point of changing the climate.

Geezus God.

I do not have all the answers but these are upending problems that we need to get a handle on.

We need to sit back & not plan how to live the next 100 years, but the next 10,000, in a sustainable way. An environmental bender is not a long-term survival strategy. I’m sorry.

That is all. Thank you.

Praise For Teachers & Doctors, & The Case For Investing In Them Proportional To Their Importance

Feature Spread




I just wanted to praise the great teachers I have had, I have heard, & all the other teachers who are making a real difference in the lives of the people they teach; I also want to praise the personable, knowledgeable doctors I have had, the ones I have read & listened to, & all the ones providing healthier, longer lives & probably ones with healthier, longer-lived children.

Some politicizing needs to be done here, because it is a renowned fact that teachers-especially are – even while being essential players in the development of civilization – underpaid severely in our country. It makes little to no sense at all to have a system where MLB (Major League Baseball) players make $3,440,000 on average yearly, & the teachers who are 2nd only to parents in importance in a child’s upbringing, make $56,400.1 2.

Are you guys saying playing a game of bat & ball – even for other people – is 60 times more important than giving a kid a life education? Education is very important – again 2nd only to what parents do.

(For that matter we should pay parents to be good parents – I’m sure you could arrange a meritocratic system – something I’ve talked about for many years.)

But why pay teachers 1/60th of sports entertainers, then? – As much as I like baseball, American football, football – properly figuring medical quantities, understanding historical trends in governments are much much more important, not 1/60th as important!

Let’s straighten out this teacher’s wages thing.

I’m not talking about a $1 an hour rise. I’m talking about making it a classe, best-of-the-best profession.

It would make sense to have doctors be the same way: well-paid for a high importance job.

Thank You.

It’s A Boy: A New Concept For Law, For A New Direction Of Law: Positive Justice

Feature Spread




i have a suggestion to make, a rather gigantic one… one that will require contemplation, & discussion, but one that in the end is right, i feel.

see, we are coming from cells, & as this unfolds we are coming from a more draconian (meaning strict & severe) sense of Justice to a more enlightened, broader circle-of-compassion’d, civilized sense, advocacy for, & exaction of Justice. we simply put punish people less vengefully as time & civilizing occasion us.

“the (criminal) justice system” – both Retributive Justice, meaning punishment & Restorative Justice, which has to do with compensating, focus on how to deal with the illegal.

what is legal, in the eyes of the Justice system, is by & large considered all equal – when you look at how the government treats citizens’ legal doings. to split a rock is equally valuable as volunteering your help to someone in need . . . they are both merely ‘legal,’ in the eyes of the law – both are merely ‘allowed’.

what, then, about formalizing the reward half of Justice? as it stands, if you do wrong you will suffer punishment or find yourself on the losing end of restoration; if you do neutral, it is treated indifferently . . . but what about those doing Good? shouldn’t we reward Good deeds even more than we beat back with a stick crimes against each other?

as i understand it, subsidizing say The Good Will’s enterprise is something done ‘wthout policy’ – by that i mean we have policy & law against crimes, but we have no legislative policy for rewarding, thru financial subsidies as well as other forms of human payment, like public recognition, good deeds.

What I’m Saying Is, Let’s Start Nourishing Our Peoples. Let’s Praise The Children That Are Our Body Politic.

Let’s Make Up For Our Neglect Of The Reward Half Of Justice, & Have A Community Of People Who Feel Good For Doing Good.

Thank You.

this is a what-i-felt-was new form of writing that at the very least i have not seen before. i have written a lot more than i have read, probably, so it may well have been sparked times before.

without further ado, a piece titled “Impressionism”:

 

A Dream.

Naked.

Ecstasy.

The wind roared around a maniac hotel. Snowballs were thrown, & cold air breath was faked to be from a non-existent cigarette.

Snowballs were thrown. Snowmen smiled. Lightning veined the air. The sky was blue. A kid laughed.

Snowballs were thrown.

The belly laughs of beerbellies. Old St. Nick rapped on the windows. Snowballs were thrown. A snowglobe glittered down.

Slushpuppies. The air around a fireplace. The teddybears of understandings of lovers. The shy eyes. People in striped coats. Plagiarism.

The wind roared around the maniac hotel, & the bedsprings shrieked. Her panties hung off the bed.

Ecstasy. Sleds. An old crow.

Rollerskates make marks.

The icicles were like candycanes.

Her shoes were like iceskates.

The car ride was so filled with fumes we got lightheaded. Dizzyspells. Earthquakes. Jupiter. Nam.

Election results. Red, white, & blue. Sparklers. The wind roared around the maniac hotel. Mashes of berries.

Mashes of berries. Creativity his or herself. The seeds.

John Milton. Chris Matthews. Isaac Hayes.

The ghost ship. Ennui reaching out from The Muses. The hand in the puppets. Mannequin with a scarf.

Elvis.

The wind roared around the maniac hotel; snowballs were thrown.

I opened the door. Elvis. Parades of people. The low shelf.

Bookshelf. Elvis. Mashes of berries. Election results.

The wind howled creativity. A spine. Two people, loving inbed. ((The bed springs shriek creativity.))

City skyline. Elvis. Tambourines. The table romance-band.

People in tanktops. Elvis. Mashes of berries. Election results. The sky was blue.

The Sun burned angry. (People in tanktops. Mashes of berries.)

Countless fingers. The hand that controls the steering wheel. Betting wheels. Mashes of berries. Cleopatra.

Countless fingers. The wind roared around the maniac hotel.

Fingers weaved. The crush of ecstasy. Pursuit. Happiness.

Mashes of berries.

Our eyes held in Love.

Re: Computers

Feature Spread




have you ever noticed television — a welcome addition to our toolbox — seems to have created a sort of fascination with culture since about the 1950s — meaning video-recorded culture?

everything before video-recordings didn’t really happen – we sort of think — or things that did are just ‘old:’ obsolete; irrelevant.

all that matters is what was captured in motion picture.

well, i am here today to say that 6000 years worth of traditions has the tried & true, time-tested ‘way’ for our lives to be lived, much more than the “new & improved”, “latest & greatest” novelties in our little sliver of history.

tradition just makes sense, when it comes to a new communications medium ((the computer/internet)): weigh the meaningfulness of the cream of the cream from the last 6000 years of written work, with a recent decade’s cultural works — say the 1980’s — there’s little comparison: the cream of the cream coming out of the last 6000 years of cultural works hangs huge in its meaningfulness, juxtaposed with 50 years or so of admittedly fun, american elation & celebration — as fun as it is . . .

now don’t get me wrong – i was just dancing to a ’60s pop hit this morning — & i hope  you’re doing all that too, because it’s fun.

but it’s simply a numbers game. 6000 years of cultural works will have more superstars, more actual bearers of cultural mantles, than 50 or 60 years.

we need to learn from the whole of the past, what traditions we should guide the seeds of this current culture toward — the Information Age’s culture — & use these ideals like navigational stars — especially with the seminal role it is shaping up to play;

we need to build our culture on the tried & true foundations of all-time; timeless, time-tested, proven ideas.

go out there & find some classics. read The Bible, read Plato, sit at the feet of Ralph Waldo Emerson for a spell.

& still get those Hippy Hippy Shakes tho =)

Only 2% Of Plants Have Been Studied For Human Use – This While Incredibly Dangerous Pharmaceuticals Are Used By 70% Of People

Feature Spread




i am not a medical professional, but i came across a stat that puts me in the eye of a perfect storm for a possibly major national health job.

i was carousing PubMed studies one day, when i came across a study on turmeric that happened to mention that of the approximately 400,000 species of plants on Earth, only 7,000 – or not even 2% – have been studied for use as medicine, food, or textile.

that was astonishing in itself . . .

but then it came to me that we might have created what i would call an artificial market in synthetic medications via the patent system. the pharmaceutical patent system artificially inflates the profitability of production, the demand via advertising (etc), & therefore the use of synthetic chemicals as medicines, which are statistically 7,750 times more dangerous than herbal supplements, & 62,000 times more dangerous than nutritional supplements, according to a study of all the relevant available data in Europe.123

so… one thing i would say is, i would put as an idea to ethical, intelligent entrepreneurs – people like Dr. Joseph Mercola  or maybe (Sir haha) Richard Branson – to what-i-termed ‘genetically experiment’ on these unresearched plants – as an example, give 50 volunteers with one medical condition each a their own unresearched plant, & study them. if one shows hope for safe effective & perhaps accessible medicine, (that is, affordable & available), do controlled experiments on it to make certain it truly is.

creating artificial demand for substances that are thousands of times more dangerous, & at by the same turn of the hand choosing to neglect the cornucopia of safer, effective  medicines, makes no sense.

we also need to investigate fixing this artificial inflation of production/demand of exceedingly dangerous “medications” legislatively.

are patents really the right thing for civilizational growth? or do they more concentrate wealth at the expense, in this case, of our health.

let’s get down to it.

Thanks,
Joe

<lakitu> i would love to see a non-reduction push among people, it can be such a big mistake, to write-off truly indispensible things like Love, consciousness, because your meter and a theory says too
<lakitu> that doesn’t mean i stopped ‘being a monist’, or really being able to see things monisitically – re physicalism

The Destiny Of Women

Feature Spread




were you lucky enough to grow up with Your Mom or maybe be raised by Your Gramma? have you known anyone else to take as good of care as you?

how about in your relationships, if you swing that way – who was more communicative? more nurturing? more Loving?: you or your female companion.

these are stereotypes, some could foam, but there is some truth to stereotypes sometimes, & when we’re talking a positive stereotype i don’t know who can complain.

have you seen violence statistics based on gender? there is a campaign for “No More” sexual assault, i believe, & we all know the lopsidedness of those crimes: Men are the assailant more than Women – & that isn’t a fluke of anatomy. that seems to be a re-occuring theme in more Men than Women’s lives: the tendency towards physical violence.

in fact, 90% of guilty homicides verdicts spoken in the United States are spoken of Men. 90% . . .

like a little miniature model for us, i believe these, like all words of Christ, to be true: “The meek shall inherit The Earth.” (Matthew 5:5). i think with establishing Men of all ethnicities with the preponderance of belligerence, Men make my assessment easy: The Future belongs to Women, more than it has in our hunter-gatherer origins. Information Technology is flourishing, in our time, & who did we say – stereotypically – communicates better? i know who, in my experience.

Who manages her self-image, & social life with heightened sensitivity, elegance – stereotypically.

how about increased technology…. our projected future. Who will manage bombs of inordinate magnitudes better: those drunk with belligerence or those whose attacks, the specialists say, more often remain verbal/secondary to physical violence?

this is a serious thing i do not think will wash away with the next tides to our shores.

i am not female. this is not hubris. this is a positive commentary on a group of people i have come to know.

what should we say to those who think Women have surmounted sexist behavior against them, fully — we need only look a the trajectory of history to see liberation, suffrage are just yesterday in history; egalitarian working rights & privileges are still not established, & we are still living among mutterings of “Women’s place is in the kitchen.”

& this, perhaps most telling: tho women are essentially half our population, they still make up only 1/5th of the US Government Senate & House seats. (that is roughly a middle value, globally.)

. . . .

How Can You Increase Your Respect For Women?

as Eleanor Roosevelt’s International Bill of Rights – ratified by the U.N. – said: How Can You Increase The Dignity Of Women Of All Kinds?

these answers help You as much as they help Women; & more over they help Us; All Of Us.

Getting Back To Basics: People, Love, & Positivity

Feature Spread




one problem with doing too much philosophy is you can fall thru the cracks into doing finer points, without proper emphasis on the basics that really matter: like dithering on about exceptions to being against war, when i should for the public good be loudly emphasizing the basics: i am anti-war, anti-violence, & even was a vegan for 10 years, until i was given some unrelated health troubles.

so – i’ve been thinking about getting back to basics, emphasizing the main ideas we need to live by, rather than the finer points, leaving the main idea unnurtured.

People are my 1st choice for a fundamental value. valuing People over Things for example – over Money (re Mammon), valuing a person as a whole, not their use for you; being human-centric, like in Philosophy, putting away “Cosmology”/Nature/Science/Things for Ethics, Life Philosophy, the human experience.

Love would be my 2nd choice, which used to be the first but – another finer point – i’d rather have People than Love, since Love is ‘just’ a thing… but, Love is no ordinary thing.

Love is The Greatest Thing, i can assuringly say, & we are most wise to live in Love: to do with Love: think with Love, speak/express with Love, & act with Love. i can assure you, it is like instant wisdom to learn to value Love properly, which is almost infinite. (i’ll pass on making any finer points here =))

lastly, what helped me rewrite this post even, when it got deleted: Positivity. if Love is the best moral guideline, then i would say Positivity is the best ethical guideline, which stands for persevering, being resilient, finding opportunity, finding happiness, & nurturing others. ”’Positivity is the language humans speak.”’ i would say – i would say the same about the other two as well — you will be listened to, received, & affect better, if you are supremely Positive.

that wraps this up. just felt i was getting a little too much into finer points, been wanting to hammer the basics for a few weeks now.

Thanks For Listening!

Quick Note On Our Domestic Priorities

Feature Spread




there is a lot going on, in a way, but i have heard some undertones of income inequality going to more of a 2nd fiddle role. other than climate change, income inequality is not a 2nd fiddle problem & we should not let those against solving that problem dissuade us from pursuing a solution, or solutions.

in the same breath, i’d like to say climate change seems like the most important political problem, to me, at the present time.

those will be our most fruitful & important focuses at home, i wonder.

conversation – a invention of a new (”’ideometric”’) ‘scope’: crosschecking the 7 deadly sins against government units often

Feature Spread




[20:45] <lakitu> in my video lectures, i introduced scoping. i just thought of a great e.g. political idea using it. take the 7 deadly sins & crosscheck them against each gov unit, to remediate them of those things. i wonder if the idea is, like the song says, i can see clearly now the rain is gone =) gonna be a bright (bright) sunshiney day — if you can clear the grevious or hidden mistakes, perhaps ‘what you need to do’ & ‘how you need to do
[20:45] <lakitu> it’ become more obvious
[20:48] <lakitu> at the least, it would be very helpful
[20:48] <lakitu> you’d want very sapient scholars of the 7 deadly sins, their various interpretations
[20:49] <lakitu> that could be an ongoing thing
[20:51] <lakitu> you ask where the ideas of laws come from, they are the codifications of ethics. if you look into who is the main provider of ethics, it’s Da Christianity. (Da Christianity)
[20:53] <lakitu> thinking on the commandments, maybe God really intended for us not to kill. if so, we should steer toward nonfatal weapons, like stunguns
[20:59] <lakitu> re the truth of Christian morals a cumudgeonous agnostic conceded, you can see how these two land features align: one of the earliest commandments i remember is thou shall not kill – how much do we protest & loathe war?
[21:01] <lakitu> you can try to cut God out of every picture you see, but eventually what you put up to challenge Him will pale, in my beliefs. for example, try writing a ground like the Bible
[21:03] * lakitu it has to do with the meterological forces of the Spiritual plane, mumbles to himself
[21:03] <lakitu> it just wouldn’t work

Culture Wins: Knowing The Worth Of The Unfinished Heavenly Painting of Culture

Feature Spread




Updated century 21 year 24 month 4 day 20 around 5pm, then around midnite.


Culture.

Culture.

i don’t think i need to say much about our Technology’s rate of growth, it’s been thru the roof, with the speaker, the microphone, the videocamera, the computer chip, spaceships, robots almost all unforeseeable a couple centuries ago.

Moneywise . . . what can i say, at this blip, we are hurting . . . & it’s not unconsequential how it is resolved. but  in actuality, we are getting better in certain ways, ways i could not elucidate, but still, i am smart enough to realize we should thank our lucky stars we drew two aces when we got Barack Hussein Obama as Our President to inherit his portion of the national situation . . . back in 2008, at the confluence of the mortgage de-regulation crisis, & the unjust, unpopular Iraq (& Afghanistan, et al) war, along with many many other influences.

but *Money*, Everyone, has not been Our Life’s master; & nor is Technology the last word in what you can experience in This Life;

Culture — that is, Conversation. Romance. Movies. Operas. Books. Blog posts. we also have a Cultural life. we engage in Cultural *transactions*, in our civilization — like me posting this post;

we use the mental *tools* (my increasing view of ideas) of Culture, e.g. internet memes, or words, to deal with Life – to seek out goals, & address concerns.

& This Time Of Ours, Our Culture, has been golden.

we’ve had a revival in Spirituality, a reprise of classicism, a regeneration of natural living, a renewal of our vows to civic duty, a return to high art in movies, tv shows, even pornography, &  a resurgence in our strongholds of Culture —

like in government, when Barack Obama said, *Love is an American ideal*, in his Presidential inauguration speech –

& a generally Romantic sense, among other things, leading to us just pawing at positive psychology, self-actualization, ever-higher-art & societal-actualization: Utopia, in terms of environmental (natural), political, aesthetic, philosophical, scientific, etc, strife & success.

& all of this golden-era *culture* has been swapped on the trade routes of information using the new transportation of the Information Age: The Computer, The Internet, The Smartphone.

i can know up-to-the-minute when justin bieber eats a sandwich =)

& not to mention a 60s-style musical revival. it truly is A Golden Era – *Culturally* – & of the 3, i think if it ever came down to having Wealth versus Culture, Culture wins; & if it came down to having Technology versus Culture. having Culture wins again.

obviously, the practical aim of a politician  is finding the needed levels of Money, Technology & Culture, & other parts of society, & understanding how best to acquire them; but

the specific situation this post undergoes is that, Here, & Now, we need to *sensitize* (‘make sensitive’) as many people as we can, (within reason), to Culture being a commodity — no — a treasury of A Community, (just like Wealth is, in a way) —

too, to Culture being a worthy toolbox replete with Internet memes, philosophical concepts, etc — *just like Technology* is in a way.

an example idea that knows the worth of Culture, would be to tax the rich, & provide culturation subsidies: free books, free videos, free audio, to any resident, with a fair (& working, re the current one) system for artists’ being paid back. you would do this because culture is a good of society, like technology too, generally, & while being sensible, it should therefore be saught out *as a society* – *as a government* – *as a people*.

always always always in my life *Culture* has been neglected in discussions of progress, but it’s true: our ethical understandings tend to become more substantive, generally; our opera houses go thru complex cultural cycles — reactionary developments, nationalist, etc, — in a hermeneutic growth of culture; & our journalism & general communal awareness seems to improve, if unimpeded by other large events – a very throbbing example of *Our Culture*. these are the best form of progress, better than the fronts of space travel, or GDP. they are not only not dangerous, but the ‘civilization of people’ makes all 3 of these parts less dangerous: more cosmopolitan in their approach to science & technology, more sapient in our approach to nutrition & also materials, more strident & magnanimous in our approach to diplomacy –

it makes us better lovers, better parents, better jokers, better *thinkers*, better *believers*,  better *doers*. it makes **us** better, not just our tools better. & for that i say love culture, & invest pugnaciously in its unfinished heavenly painting.

& who knows, maybe we’re not alone in this Universe – would you rather meet your neighbor planet-dwelling species as magnanimous diplomats, as artists wrought with inspiration, people brimming with life & tenacity, or as ‘efficient’ businessmen — as cons & sells. craftily explaining financial derivatives. etc. i know which identity i subscribe to. i hope you choose to appraise culture as a beacon of a community, of a society, of civilization.


(a fun bonus paragraph to this is that a great example of what i mean is “memes”. they are not very big, physically. not very heavy. you can’t move stuff with memes – but you can move hearts & minds a good distance. these internet “memes” are in my perspective crystallizations & mascots of life phenomena & roles in the complex cultural domain of socialization – the nom nom nom meme, or the ‘you said something stupid’ guy meme. if you think about it, they’re sort of like mind tools, which has some rightful inheritance of the world stage alongside ‘thing tools’ like agricultural equipment & medical equipment – Technology. memes are a great example of something we get better as a society by nurturing, along with ethics, journalism, science, diplomacy, etc. a good meme mockup is literally a worthy thing, not moneywise, but beyond that, just ‘good to have’.)

Remembering Everything That Was Lou Reed

Feature Spread




for my tastes, Lou Reed (1942-2013) was the 2nd best American songwriter/rocker, after Bob Dylan.

as it stands, we have a pretty good goldvein of lou reed songs to last us.

the world lost a quirky, charming, massive personality who was, in rock & roll, a blatant & irrepressible singer, Lou Reed was formative in shaping rock & roll for future generations – especially musicians – from his original 60s & 70s hippie & loose-rock shipmates to the current generation of indieans – more so now than back then, even.

when i was younger, there was about a 1/3 dice throw you could find me listening to these & songs like them, on headphones, on a minidisc recorder biking or walking around Faribault.

Thanks for teaching all of us to Walk on The Wild Side – just like you did –

Walk On The Wildside:

i couldn’t pick just one Velvet’ favorite – so i picked 3 songs. i think it’s impossible to be unhappy listening to Rock & Roll – a favorite song of My Dad’s & personally, this is maybe tied for my favorite rock song:

what a better 17-year-old’s anthem than Sweet Jane for my generation – i couldn’t find a better:

i still remember trying to woo a girl singing that song, ‘standing on the corner / (suitcase in my hand)‘.

— this was not feel-good music; it was feel-best.

no wonder Andy Warhol produced their first album & & made a nearly endless amount of arthouse videos at Warhol’s Factory.

bring on the documentaries.

A Post About Eclecticism

Feature Spread




one school of thought i’ve been propounding lately is eclecticism. when you apply this idea to philosophy, you see that for example, subjectivism & realism are not competitors mutually exclusive, but subjectivism says what is good of the body is told in diagnosis, & realism says what is good of the body is health – as that, they are unified in a toolkit where one is used for one thing, (the analysis of ‘diagnosis’ from body), & the other thing is used for still another. it is the idea that different schools of thought are like tools in a toolbelt, rather than competing systems; this carries over to broader fields than philosophies, where science has its place, religion its, poetry another, & so on; so that each field has its place. this is the idea of eclecticism, & even well-roundedness: that you selectively use the good points from each thing, rather than tribally defend your one way.

in a way, this gets to well-roundedness, & life philosophy, where you spend not all your time being intellectual, moving one level-up in the categories of pursuits, but spend time with friends & family, pursuing your passion/career, release doing hobbies & recreations, & spend time learning new things, & experiencing new kinds of experiences, as well.

the french had a phrase, it meant “he eats well, he drinks well, he fucks well.” that is sort of the cosmopolitan idea here.

Ecstatic Romanticism

Feature Spread




my friends from facebook might recognize this as being familiar — i posted this on facebook once already. i put a lot into it tho & so i thought i’d make it public. this one’s about a new ethos in Art: Ecstatic Romanticism:

i trace a cool Romanticism (not romanticness ;)) (a lot like i traced (rightly!) Jazz to Kerouac’s writing (ok & Neal Cassady – lol) to Dylan’s lyrics, to a lot of the lyrics SINCE Dylan) — like i was saying (& i’m not sure anyone will care) but i think i trace a lineage of Romanticism from The Cure to maybe AFI & those (i bet *both*) to Bright Eyes — i wanted to say something on top of that: i am coming from a deep love of modern Romanticism (i feel a Counter-Enlightenment coming on!), but am/was still pulled apart from it by the Goth/depressing elements — poisoned Beauty, sort of —

i remembered the reason (*the last person listening gets up & leaves – talking to myself i’m sure*) i shunned Bright Eyes when they first hit was because he was noted for being genius, but DEPRESSIVE. i was already old enough to be bored with depression/darkness… anyway long story short (i don’t feel like doing this on a anonymous message board & be all, ‘well i have agnosia’ — anwyay) – long story short, the facebook version is *why not make an ECSTATIC Romanticism, rather than romanticize darkness — something i’ve always found wrong twice (or ‘doubly’). Kerouackian beatific visions to the height of Blake, or Roberto Benigni’s ecstasy with Life into the deepest poeticness. why not?* i believe if i were to seriously (not as i do) walk Art’s path… i would by & large make such Art – thru Positivity & what i called literary Impressionism… if you’ve ever read my writing that starts out “holidays! ons & offs (…)” Impressionism in literature (my invention?) was sort of a trans-semantic language that took meaning by virtue of dizzying depths of swirly ecstasy, more than syntatically perfect english. felt fragments, really .. something like the best Shoegazer albums. sort of taking — oh man i forget my impressionist painters — but say Debussy — who said to fade out like a gentle autumn leaf, for a musical direction on one of his piano scores . . . sort of taking his Impressionism & writomg of the Ecstasy you the writer feel from Love & Love of Things… double Romanticism – Romanticism from Love =) true Romanticism – Optimistic & In Love Ecstatic Romanticism/Art.

my fave modern Romantic is e.e. cummings, re since feeling is first (probably seems tired, but that is straight Ecstatic Romanticism / Counter-Enlightment / (again, Positive) Sturm Und Drang. his ‘grammar’ is not taking away anything from this sentiments – the founder of Sturm Und Drang WHICH BECAME Romanticism – ok – said “Poetry is the mother tongue of the human race.” (he also was a Christian. i.e. it wasn’t Nietzsche, who Philo/Art punks fall in Love with… too often — but –) the idea of that poem is fully Romantic….. everyway Romantic. i love The Cure but again, darkness… i truly love any great piece of art, Life Is Beautiful to the first person to etch or sing — i actually amn’t approaching this as a critic, or putting Art in a very sorted ‘structured’ thing, but just a person with a good idea burning a hole in their pocket — every time i’ve held onto my ideas they grow obsolete / i seem like a latecomer. i am just a guy who loves Romanticism & sees an opening for Ecstasy to fit in — by way of Love. Ecstatic Romanticism, like Debussy, Benigni, & in a way Kerouac; Ecstatic (Positive) Romanticism. =)

there is a lady, Pagila, who was doing the old Dinonysian/Apollonian distinction – & tho i agree with her on other things (porn, etc, surprisingly — basically — anyway), the Nietzsche world-view of Dinoysian vs. Apollonian breaks down here: Righteous Ecstatic Love. simply put, Ecstasy (no i didn’t get Ecstasy from the Barack Obama T.S. Eliot / girlfriend letter haha – altho that was great) – (Righteous) Ecstatic Love is the marriage of Goodness & Animalistic Passion – showing no need for bounding Goodness on one side & Passion on the other.

if anyone has any comments i’d like to hear anything at all, really. i will be selling popcorn in the back *points*. grab up some of these people’s works & bump around town with them. i can pretty much say Debussy (esp. Clair De Lune, & maybe Arabesque), some sweet spot Django Reinhardt, like September Song (a special acoustic version), Beyond The Sea (Le Mer, i think) (again a special/certain version), etc etc, Roberto Benigni — my big fave Life is Beautiful — & Kerouac — anything at all by him … & e.e. cummings — these people did me right everytime, basically.

A New Renaissance

our culture blows me away.

i wonder that we are living in a new Renaissance, where art & philosophy & science & religion are being put in equal stride, & great culture is everywhere. for sure we are in a golden period like in B.C. Athens. there is great culture almost everywhere: on the radio, on the internet (our new communication invention), in politics.

the only things i really think of are we need to keep this going, & what is it we are exactly doing that is so great?

i wrote a facebook post about the rainbow of societal causes we are pushing & pursuing, in our time, & i think now would be a good time to plug them in (into this post) –

here they are:

This Is The Best Decade Since The 60s – Let’s Keep ALL We’ve Got *Going* – LOVE & BEING GOOD, GIVING GOOD VIBES, NATURAL & ORGANIC, SPIRITUALITY OVER SCIENTISM, PEOPLE OVER THINGS (NON-MATERIALISM/NON-GREED, & NON TECHNOLOGY ADDICTION), COMMUNITY, *LOVING EVERYONE*, BEING POSITIVE & OPTIMISTIC, HAVING FUN, BEING HUMAN, BEING ROMANTIC, *LOVING EVERYONE*, BEING ANGELIC TO ONE ANOTHER, CHRISTIANITY, SOCIETAL & POLITICAL AWARENESS, ACTIVISM & PROTEST & AWARENESS-RAISING GRASSROOTS MIDDLE CLASS OVER CORPORATIONS, PEACE, DEMOCRACY, WOMEN’S & GAYS’ & EVERYONE’S RIGHTS ACROSS THE WORLD, ANIMAL RIGHTS, GREEN WAYS / ENVIRONMENTALISM, FREE INTERNET, OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE, COMMUNITY DONE THINGS, POT LEGALIZATION, NATURELOVING, INDEPENDENT MUSIC, *LOVING EVERYONE*, COMMUNITY GATHERINGS, BEING HUMAN, HAVING FUN, BEING RECEPTIVE, COMMUNITY, BEING ANGELIC, VOLUNTEERWORK & DONATION, COMMUNITY, BEING FAMILYSTRONG, BEING FRIENDSTRONG, BEING GOODWILLED, *LOVING EVERYONE!* . . . ♥♥♥♥

– &!, this is my point – let’s make it PERMANENT!!!! Loving natural organic hippie/indie politically aware Good at heart Good vibes Loving People – for Life! ;)

.: What i By Learning Forgot :.

here’s an old poem i wrote about 4 years ago.

it goes a little something like this – a one two one two three four!:

.: What i By Learning Forgot :.

one day i thought
stupidity knows, all those things i forgot
by learning so much,
about this & that & dot dot dot

running thru the grass, i would never’ve known that’d be the innocence i’ lost,
listening to the adults, i knew i could not make that kind of talk,
i dreamed of being a big kid, but the grown ups, there was something some of them ‘d lost;
but when i woke up one day, late for work, i stood between two worlds, the losing, & the lost:

a kid came up to me, & drew me a picture my memory pinned up, but my organization since lost,
& i leaned more toward the little guy, as up walked my boss,
& i looked at my picture, while Gary explained how It’s Everyone That Tardiness Costs,
the kid was all smiles, & Gary looked cross, & i knew who to choose, i knew who, between the losing & the lost,,

so, i quit my job,
Gary would say i got fired, but either way it was cost,
but  i found what that kid gave me:
a piece of my innocence – he smiled so much – he had playfulness, spark, innocence, & love – i hope i never ever lose something so important again, only little things, like jobs.

The State Of Our Civilization

Feature Spread




there is news.

we have mastered new forms of power, & formed a material production revolution around them. 

& now, later, material productions are doing everything & more agriculture did for hunter-gatherers: turning mass productions into automated operations which require less man-hours & produce more goods.

too, we have devised a huge advancement for the trade routes of information: The Internet.

we have even begun fashioning simple information tools; these leaf-&-stick waterwheels of information are the beginning of un-understandably great semantic tools of the future.

this report is not just to tell us that these things are happening, but to respond, too.

first, for our material production developments, what fates held for the agricultural revolution – the exploitation of the common people by large landowners – we must keep vigilant against with the corporations in ours:

the fruits of industry & automation technology ought to be divided fairly, rather than greedy owners keeping all profits to themselves.

we can do this by subsidizing co-operated factories & upcomingly, automated factories, so that the profits of mass productions of cheap & valuable products can be shared among all participating, rather than most of the money going to a plump few, as is often the case;

more positively, with the automated production revolution we should start seeing a new society taking foothold; one where products are abundant & inexpensive, just like when farms made crops & meat widely accessible, & there should no serious two-ways-about who can afford basic things & who can not; & the playing field should be leveled bothways, so that everyone has comparable basic goods in this life.

as long as the distribution of the fruits of the automated revolution are well-divided – say in a employee-owned automated factory co-op sharing profits evenly – then all of our myriad of products should become cheaper as automated production replaces human hands; at the same time freeing us from work’s drudgeries, & giving us more free-time for what matters most to us —

if the fruits of that labor are kept well-divided.

for the revolution in information trading that the internet is bringing, i propose a system by The People, of The People, & for The People, containing all the myriad [] {to be continued – Ed.}

third, we should pour our research funds into information tools; not into weapons research, not into experimental substances research: into information tools. deductive applications, inference engines, expert systems, maybe even into philosophy programs, & put these powerful items in The People’s hands; in The Government’s hands, in the Non-Profits’ hands, & level the playing field against runaway advancement in commercial areas, where the conflicts of interest are too strong for optimal growth. 

at the same time, we should remove software patents, because it slows our civilization’s progress & boosts commercial advancement out of step with the rest of The World.

let’s do these things so that we may REACH the stars of higher culture thru information technology, & also, so the cultural advancement of powerful corporations *does not* outpace the government’s culture or what the average person has access to: because, for the optimum civilization progress to be made, fundamental insights using information technology should be accessible by all, with the basic required information-infrastructure ready to use, rather than too-powerful of corporations having all the tools & fundamental insights they provide, & the average person being the victim of their advances; & again because we should ALL enjoy the fruits of bounding information technology, & because commercial culture should not become overgrown, we should make these tools public & free, or at least affordable, like other basic utilities are – water, garbage, & electricity – so that everyone has great access to the fountains of culture.

one concrete step to do this is for the government to make a public search engine that is the analog of a public library for all the world’s websites, so that no one company becomes too powerful with information, & then too powerful with money, & then plays the role of a library or government department compounded with conflicted interests, making poor choices poor experiences for the citizens. we should make a public search engine that is the best at what it does, just like the city makes maps of the roads & houses & businesses, & also make applications that help people do basic things, like communicate & share files thru ftp, & provide & maintain them for free or few & affordable dollars.

too, we should subsidize culture itself, & give access to what the low-income kids *want* culturally, to help them grow via their favorite music & books & movies & lectures & pictures & documentaries, etc. this is a civilizational blessing, because we effectively use powerful technology to thrive our culture immensely, improving the actual people, rather than just constant technology improving, which will only pass on thru the generations.

why not help pay for people’s culturation, just like we help pay for their bodily nourishment; food for thought is also important, & we want the most advanced culture we can, really.

& on that note, how about contributing to the greater good of The World, & picking up the tab on getting India electricity & reasonable access to computers; & then when Egypt – a 2nd great historical culture – coalesces into a more stable entity again, we can upgrade this great culture’s computer infrastructure as well, alike ‘civilizational security’, to get them contributing more of their legendary cultures to the global dialogue that is The World Wide Web.

with the changes coming from automated production, the nearly vertical growth in information exchanging, & the new area of making information tools, it is best to have a plan. i hope these thoughts serve as some early ideas in our navigating these revolutions.

thanks.

I writ more what some people call lyrics (what I called mine & each other writ that’s mine the elf plagiarized & too & put next to the forbidden fruit tree in the elf’s) than even Vortext from Undernet IRC when we compared notes on how much we wrote – & have writ more what some people call lyrics than I have philosophy & politics combined . . . Thus this Romance poetry concept is not unlike a fetus in me that I have nurtured for a good year number . . . & the elf is some drug addict like with a coathanger trying to kidnap my baby & claim it for the elf’s . . .

There is a lot in the life philosophy plagiary boat ⸻ sinking as it may be ⸻ who are happy to rape years’ nurture concepts & pretend they have attained these life philosophy heights while “stallion collect[ing]” me.

Please be aware who is playing by the rules & who is not ⸻ & don’t give in when a large plagiarist tries to impose as us actual concept cultivators.

Thank you!

Long Awaited Health: Healing From A Stroke: How I Cured My Stroke!




An ischemic stroke is a rupture that causes a blockage of blood supply in your brain; niacin (also known as vitamin B3) is a vasodilator meaning it opens the vessels – veins, endothelial cells, for example – in the brain to allow vital necessary oxygen in to prevent your stroke’s brain damage; oxygen – for example thru a concentrator or in liquid oxygen form – is a healer: one of the three main biological cell functions: for nutrients to be let in, for waste & dead cell parts to be let out, & for oxygen to be let in to heal: that is oxygen’s job: to heal . . . this will heal damage in our brains that have suffered a stroke (or “stroke-like event” as Janssen requires calling it).

Both these medicines – niacin & oxygen – worked quite a while after the stroke for me to heal from the resulting agnosia (including general agnosia – the worst agnosia); be sure to take medicinal amounts (beyond recommended daily intakes (RDIs)) for the niacin & you may need to get a doctor’s order to buy a oxygen concentrator and/or search the Web for a while to find liquid oxygen.

I want this to work for you! Research & try this!

From a dialogue on Libera in ##politics overnite ⸻ I am `lakitu`:

I’m not saying the Likud is perfect, but the only way forward is a peaceful 2-state solution, and that starts with Palestinians reclaiming their government from guerilla terrorists who want them to be dead martyrs and constantly push for intifadas and genocide.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:33’09”} <violetjewel> terminal renders the font. I use st with FiraCode and a few ligatures.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:33’09”} <IndyJoenz> layers that need wide character support retrofitted in

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:34’01”} <lakitu> it is either your font or your IRC client (or both). I am in `hexchat` which renders the three-em dash.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:34’40”} <violetjewel> screen and irssi just throw bytes and escape codes at the terminal that renders them. it’s the terminal. Perhaps non-monospace font clients (eg hexchat (yep- guessed it :D)) fair better

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:34’46”} <lakitu> or as you’re saying: the terminal / other ‘layers’

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:34’48”} <IndyJoenz> I need to get my head better around how variable width unicode characters work, especially with unix terminals

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:35’33”} <lakitu> I’m in a Palatino Lintoype small-caps font in `hexchat` . . .

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:41’09”} <IndyJoenz> violetjewel: You would think that screen and irssi just throw bytes unmodified at the terminal. However, in my experience, that is not always the case. I have seen newer unicode characters not render correctly inside of screen, and various ncurses programs. I think it has to do with being compiled against something for Utf-8 support, but using an older Unicode standard.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:41’21”} <IndyJoenz> but they render in the terminal fine otherwise

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 01:41’42”} <IndyJoenz> Something about screen being aware of every character it prints

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 06:36’04”} I’ve lost some weight that I needed to lose. am happy for that. I found out this morning shredded coconut really is 0 carb. 24 grams of saturated fat for half a cup: as much saturated fat as 7 salmon filets

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 06:39’03”} one problem is coconut is being overharvested . . . I read.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 06:39’51”} I found a cool formula for judging the helthiness of breads, take corbohydrate grams and divide by fiber grams, you want something around 8 or less
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 06:40’36”} like 20G of carbs, divideded by 2 grams of fiber = 10
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 06:40’46”} lower number is better
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 06:40’57”} but also watchadded sugar
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 06:41’58”} 21G crabs divided by 3G of fiber = 7 = helthy bread

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:07’24”} that question requires context for any meaningful response.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:10’41”} life philosophy . . . ethics . . . religion . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:11’23”} “happy medium, or minimally Good, or extremely Good” also, “happy” and “good” are not the same things
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:12’28”} also “better” for who?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:12’47”} picky picky am Eye :-)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:12’57”} happy medium is an established expression: Like “the sweet spot” . . . the middle of the road . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:13’11”} * happy medium is an established expression: Like “the sweet spot” . . . *”*the middle of the road*”* . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:13’28”} ** *”*happy medium*”* is an established expression: Like “the sweet spot” . . . *”*the middle of the road*”* . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:14’36”} yes, but happy, not being good, is not directly comparable
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:16’17”} it is a expression that means ‘mid extreme & radical’
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:16’26”} doh
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:17’07”} if you want to say “good medium, or minimally Good, or extremely Good” those are all comparable
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:17’28”} as 3 states of good
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:17’38”} vs 2 and another thing
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:18’35”} 2 + something else needs context to connect the “not the same thing” elements
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:19’44”} if you are refering to three states of good, fine: the more good the better imho
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:24’55”} I think I have been turned to the sweet spot: the happy medium between radical Good & extreme Good . . . one reason I elect to lower diligence from radical (in the meaning stipulated) Good: imagine frugality earning wealth – that you never spend on your Wives, your Girlfriends . . . that is radicality that seems “microradical” – Like √ applied to 1/n: it exponentially goes the opposite direction;
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:26’23”} a happy medium between minimally and maximal good is also workable for comparison… “medium” is the context required to connect all three as states of good
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:26’48”} at the same time I wish to configure the mid – the radical Good – & the extreme Good on a case-by-case basis: invest in that soaring stock – & minimize that carcinogen . . . for example.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:28’28”} I don’t see any support for your use of “radical” as meaning what you suggest
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:29’38”} “The noun, radical, comes from the Latin radix “root,” and in fact, radical and root are synonymous as technical terms in fields such as math and linguistics. In more everyday language, a radical is someone who has very extreme views, so you could say that their views are different from the root up. Similarly, a radical flaw or change is a fundamental one whereas a radical design or idea is very new and innovative.” is pretty standard
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:30’03”} I’m sorry you are misconceiving it: radical in mathematics – “√” – means a largely minimizing effect. √100 = 10; a decimation
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:30’46”} that is another misdefinition for the dictionary denotation I stipulated.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:31’14”} I know
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:31’42”} I am not misconcieving your use of the word, I am disputing it
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:31’44”} radical carcinogen minimization – to minimize carcinogens – for example
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:32’38”} “radical” is the polar oppostie of “extreme”
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:32’43”} that is a lazy person’s definition
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:32’45”} fine as a science or math term, but in normal english radical is “extreme” (in any direction)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:33’41”} no, it is the dictionary definition used for the common language. Specialized vocabularies are only used in certain contexts imho..
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:34’14”} it is a less philosophically mature meaning that – Like other meanings – get revealed in time
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:34’50”} I’ll stick with the dictionary, but we all have personal meanings for some words
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:35’26”} mathematical “radical” means a minimization: √100 is a decimation
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:35’34”} so if you are asking about 3 states of “good” well the more good the better
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:35’50”} d0h yes, we already discussed that
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:36’11”} the very very basic things Like mathematics getting inverted creates big problems later
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:36’34”} * mazy^afk has quit (Ping timeout)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:36’52”} you can’t say mathematical radicals make “extreme” numbers in the same sense that quantities can be extreme meaning large
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:37’02”} happiness, not being “good” is unrelated, so “happy medium” is the place between maximum and minimum: fine

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:37’09”} * lakitu gives channel operator status to ratbeing
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:37’38”} free radicals are also under discussion here then
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:37’40”} Nuns for example live fastidiously; They are not extremists
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:38’35”} ”happy medium” works to describt the place between max and min, but it adds an emotional valence to it as well.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:39’10”} if you are asking about 3 states of “good” well the more good the better :-)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:39’51”} you are a artist with a “terminal” degree in fine arts . . . you are familiar with minimalism & maximalism.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:40’43”} sure
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:40’57”} and the place in between
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:41’46”} 3 states of anything
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:42’02”} that looks Like a Good Compare: minimalism as radicalism, maximalism as extremism – & happy medium as neither minimalist nor maximalist . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:42’30”} welcome back rat.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:43’02”} minimalism os somethng else as well tho
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:43’14”} but ok
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:43’46”} little versus much.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:43’53”} minimal vs medium vs maximum (states of good)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:46’36”} “minimal vs medium vs maximum (states of good)” : to me the more good the better. This only relates to “good”. The choice for max good may have for example have sad personal consequences so it might not be chosen.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:49’42”} radicalism and extremism are in normal english very similar in meaning so I have to take them out (as part of describing opposites)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:49’46”} I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: quantity for radical Good versus quality for extreme Good. the happy medium means half quantity & half quantity.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:50’24”} * I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: quantity for radical Good versus quality for extreme Good. the happy medium means half *quality* & half quantity.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:50’37”} strike that
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:51’18”} “happy medium” is fine as a slang expression between minimum and maximum. It adds an unrelated emotional valance however.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:51’22”} hmmm
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’08”} “medium /mē′dē-əm/
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’08”} noun
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’09”} Something, such as an intermediate course of action, that occupies a position or represents a condition midway between extremes. “
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’28”} the word medium refers to the place in the middle
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:52’51”} happy is a describtion of an emotional state
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:53’23”} ** I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: *quantity of Life* for radical Good versus *quality of Life* for extreme Good. the happy medium means half *quantity* & half *quality*.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:53’51”} this: “minimal vs medium vs maximum (states of good)” is fine tho to describe 3 positions on a continnuum
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:54’11”} *** I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: *quantity of Life* for radical Good versus *quality of Life* for extreme Good. the happy medium means half *quantity *of Life** & half *quality *of Life**.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:54’56”} ok so you are not referring to “minimal vs medium vs maximum (states of good)” in your initial inquiry?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:55’25”} **** I think radical Good (meaning minimalism) cp. extreme Good (re maximalism) is better understood by a tradeoff between the two: *quantity of Life* for radical Good versus *quality of Life* for extreme Good. the happy medium means half *quantity **of Life*** & half *quality **of Life***.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:55’29”} that is more what I mean
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:56’02”} radical Goodness / quantity of Life & extreme Goodness / quality of Life
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:57’15”} no comment then
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:57’24”} I see.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:58’04”} fabulous rainbows of well-roundedness.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:58’18”} for the “happy medium”
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:58’28”} I can’t compare those: for example what is “quantity of life”?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) am 11:58’59”} quantity of Life? decades you live?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:00’32”} so what does lifespan have directly to do with quality of life?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:01’22”} how are they on a continuum?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:02’51”} and how would doing the least amount of good create a longer lifespan?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:03’12”} you can imagine ‘living it up’ – ‘party hearty’ – & similar expressions – costing you years from your life. consider alcoholism for example
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:03’55”} radical Good is achieving Goodness thru minimization `efex`.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:04’51”} heh – that is what I am describing
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:05’36”} minimal good is achieved through doing the least good
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:06’14”} radical Good is achieved thru minimalism. cutting carcinogens for example
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:07’16”} Are you are referring to getting maximum good results from doung the least actual good, vs the same from doing the most good mthen?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:07’38”} from minimizing wrong
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:07’55”} in achieving radical (minimalist) Good
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’06”} ok so are you asking “which is a better approach, minimizing bad or emphasisiing good”?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’27”} very loosely yes
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’38”} fine!
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’40”} haha
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’48”} 20 minutes later!
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:09’58”} those to me are the same thing
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:10’12”} yes: words are verry specific :-)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:10’46”} * Ragtime^ ([email protected]) has joined
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:11’38”} I think configuring radical (minimalist) Good – happy medium Good – & exterme Good on a *case-by-case* basis might be best
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:12’19”} this is a soaring stock: buy a lot. that is a known carcinogen: minimize it radically.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:13’13”} both those things create a result moving (something being measured) into a state of having more good and less bad.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:13’46”} but sure they are two methods
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:13’57”} well imagine cooking: you add the most for your favorite flavor . . . this does not include removing the unhealthy ingredients from it. those two are separate.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:15’39”} costeffectiveness versus splurging
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:15’42”} they are two methods. I can agree on that ok?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:15’59”} they both contribute to how Good the food is
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:16’43”} * costeffectiveness versus *indulgence*
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:17’08”} in most any circumstance the method the get the most good will be different.. so your case by case approach is imho the norm.

{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:23’24”} thus the book burning right wing extremist situation is a current issue. :-(
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:24’31”} <ragtime^> It is the leftists who are bigger on censorship imho.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:24’53”} what did this mean?: {central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:21’42”} education helps: external context creates a place to observe self outside of chemically induced personal states
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:25’33”} Ragtime^: you are entitled to your personal opionin :-)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:26’13”} “vducation helps: external context creates a place to observe self outside of chemically induced personal states” was in response to “I worry phenethylamines have sullied our diligence . . . creating mimickry diligence & creating too much stridence . . . “\
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:26’24”} Ragtime^: the conservative position – that is the best I’ve heard – is **edify**, *educate* – don’t outlaw, regulate . . .
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:26’32”} <ragtime^> Thank you. I am surprised at even that concession.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:26’38”} ha.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:26’54”} ? what concession?
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:27’09”} you can think what you like :-)
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:27’14”} <ragtime^> lakitu: The issue is slippery. Whether left wing or right wing, it is usually the Jews behind censorship.
{central U.S. time CDT (-0500) pm 12:29’27”} “conservative position – that is the best I’ve heard – is **edify**, *educate* – don’t outlaw, regulate “ very true, and fine. The loss of the Conservative party to MAGA however has created a situation where conservatism is not currently a force in play in the USA it appears. other places sure it exists.
