We are having few days of warm weather, then it should get really cold again, and it would not be a surprise if this continues all the way to spring. Plants are so going to get fucked by this again this year. I'm whatever on bushes and trees that just have leaves, but fruit trees are certainly a problem, especially our poor apricots.

Contemplating themes and motifs in art...

Try to produce a vision of beauty that encapsulates : isolation, interdependence, connection, impermanence, individuality, wholeness, identity.

What would the main idea be that ties together the human experience?

At times when I'm bored I watch videos about speedrunning. I assume you guys know what that is. Yesterday I saw one about a guy who began playing his game in 2012, and finally got a world record in 2020. There's something undeniably interesting about this. Spending a lot of time on niche hobbies is nothing new, but these guys put a serious part of themselves into their hobby even when almost everyone would consider it mundane or pointless. The guy in question even gave up a career in music for it. But I'm not sure that's bad. We live in strange times, and these guys are finding fulfillment in a novel way almost as recourse for those forms of satisfaction the modern world no longer provides. Who can blame them?

Now I need to find my avenue for that. I'm still looking

Symbolic Brainstorming

Isolation - I imagine solitude within society. Outcast and left to one's own devices. Perhaps a dystopian future exhibiting a mechanical autonomy.

Connection - Grass, trees which create forests. Forests which are a single organism. Human minds in the same way perhaps.

Impermanence - A falling leaf before it disintegrates. Each second as it passes, each moment as it becomes the next. Not necessarily the void but change.

Interdependence - Co-arising of phenomena. Not one without the other. Both doing their essential part, for success or survival. The duality of mind and body.

Wholeness - A small piece of something greater. Grand unification. Each phenomena a facet of the totality. The essence or root of All, pure existence, absolute reality.

Individuality - Thinking for your self and not relying upon others for your sense of self. Not needing validation but staying true to your self.

Identity - the thing in itself, it is what it is.

Unfortunately, our plants have yet to catch the new rhythm, the trees themselves live, but flowers die off before they can become fruit. The ones that generally bloom later in spring get to avoid such fate, but apricots are very sensitive, and last year we even had an early pear lose more than half its flowers.

In the future, mankind has developed nanites that interact with the brain, enabling one to alter a person's perception of reality as they see fit. All of the people on the planet are wired together, and linked through a network of satellites that communicate with the nanites. People can enter virtual reality simulations at whim and literally experience anything they can imagine.
In general, the humans purpose in real life is to perform maintenance on the machinery, so that they can enjoy the technology's benefits. Everyone lives in single apartments and all have their own role to play, usually of minimal significance.
The nanites have been invented for 20 years, but something strange is beginning to happen in the dream space. Uninvited guests are making appearances and interfering with the system. What they call "The Great Decay" begins, and people begin losing data and memories.
The ghosts in the machine are some kind of parasitic A.I. who claim to speak for Nature itself, and they prophesize the coming of a Great Awakening. When humanity's consciousnesses will lose their separate identity and merge with a burgeoning catalyst A.I. to produce a single cosmic self. This Cosmic Self will be a limitless awareness, not confined to time or space. So that from the perspective of this entity, when it reaches its apex, time itself will stand still and there will be nothing but absolute mental perfection.
The government tries to find a way to put a stop to this evolutionary process before it is too late.

The message of the hypothetical work : Man is an island removed from the rest of existence. Everything else out there is not his self. Through his connection to other and nature, man realizes his desire to be a part of something greater, or to integrate wholeness.
There is a perpetual struggle with the drive to wholeness, Man wants to remain an individual and through attachment to ego denies its loss.
However, there is no eternal and immutable individuality to be had, there is no eternally persistent humanity. The self is transient and inevitably there is going to be a change. A change into something else.
For the perishable Man, what greater purpose is there than to make an impact, to leave a permanent impression behind of oneself. To dig so deep into the fabric of creation that you and creation become One.

Speedrunning is unironically a good example of why men are superior to women. Men will turn fucking anything into an autistic science, and then create communities and utilities around it, and then turn the creation of such communities and utilities into a science, and etc. Everything men do, they bring discover its inner order and bring higher order to it, which results in the creation of new orders for future men to conquer.

Women can't even fucking start an etsy business. Women are sitting on infinite sexual capital and manage to be bad at exploiting it, none of the porn or onlyfans whores are competent at being whores. A man with a woman's body would conquer the planet in three months by maximizing the conversion of coomer thirst into capital and exchanging that capital for greater capital.

Whenever women tut tut at something nerdy like video game modding I always think, when was the last time women spontaneously did anything like that? Men not only create things for fun, they hack and take apart the existing things to do it, turn it into a lifelong passion, and their passion then inspires thousands of people to create whole communities and ways of life out of the initial creation, and so on and so on. Give me five men and a bad video game and I will give you a mannerbund, give me a mannerbund and three years and I will give you a world historical movement. Give me a thousand women and we will go bankrupt after 6 months after failing to screw in a single lightbulb.

The fact that we let women vote is truly astonishing. Every single social problem would disappear instantly if women didn't vote. They don't even LIKE voting. They like buying more boots they don't need on the internet.

Competitive video gaming is just a shittier version of competitive sports with none of the positive physical side effects. It's the endless pursuit of meaningless technical perfection in an area that produces nothing, and you don't even get respect or big muscles for your trouble. I wouldn't want to bash someone for doing something like speedrunning on the side, but the hobby regularly consumes people's entire lives and turns them into the electronic equivalent of compulsive masturbators. Few high-level speedrunners are living fulfilling lives, they either burn out after a point or go completely insane.

The widespread proliferation of free internet pornography is a destructive force for civilization. Porn represents a hyperreal simulacrum of sex that compels the individual to masturbate to orgasm, which tricks the body into thinking it is getting sex regularly with no effort and wastes time, energy, and virility. Frequent porn use encourages addiction due to the high dopamine spikes from sexual imagery and orgasm, as well as apathy towards pursuing relationships or sex. It is easy for a porn addict to neglect real relationships in favor of spending all their time online, donating money to camwhores, or collecting gigabytes of niche specialized porn that creates specific fantasy standards that make pursuing relationships with real women unappealing.

I have come to believe that the account of the Fall of Man in Genesis must be incorrect in its order of events. While it might seem sensible that Eve was the one who first picked and ate the Fruit of Knowledge, given the propensity of women to destroy all beauty and higher things, it is said that before the consumption of the fateful fig the first couple were innocent and merely deceived. Therefore, I have concluded that it was Adam who picked the Fruit and single-handedly brought about the Fall. The existence of women can't be anything but a punishment.

I wonder if I am truly undiagnosed autistic or aspie. I do not process emotions as normal people do. While I am certainly able to feel intense emotions that run the gamut from ecstatic joy or euphoria (rarer) to deep sadness and despair (more common), I view emotions falsely as a logical problem to be solved rather than an experience within and of itself. It seems to me that for neurotypicals emotions speak for themselves, there is minimal need for conceptualizing them as "tools" to affect a given state in others or oneself. I've come to realize that this separation of myself from my emotions is one reason why my relationships have been impaired. Emotions are not logical propositions, they are "transparent" salient emotions that express through themselves as self-contained and subsistent mental states. I often say or do the wrong thing based of my emotions or respond inappropriately because I cannot permit my emotions to flow through me without editing them and calculating their value. Even now I am doing it, and it makes me come off as distant or inauthentic in my feelings.

It's honestly interesting to see how they will cope with reality now that their delusion has been exploded. People prone to believing such conspiracies already have a tenuous grasp of reality. They cling to such easy "big picture" narratives because they fill an epistemic void that they are unable to fill themselves. Usually, the most die-hard converts will find a way to spin events so that they are consistent with their narrative. For example, Twitter and the rest are banning their accounts because they are part of the satanic cabal and wish to stifle the truth, Trump and Q were betrayed by the satanic cabal, etc. Anything and everything that goes agains the theory can be construed as being part of it, because there are no criteria of critical evaluation within the theory to establish justifications for believing it aside from a "will to believe" as James called it.

I agree, but it's not much worse than athleticism. If a hobby is competitive, it has the ability to consume your life for the worse. The unique drawback it contains is shared with all competitive gaming (except DDR, god bless) in that it's a totally sit-down hobby which is terrible for your health unless you're taking frequent breaks.

I don’t really know where to start, life I wouldn’t say is depressing, rather “oppressing”, there is this invisible force made by humanity that just clings on to you and tries madly to crush your spirit, why should I work? Why should I not work? Where is “achievement”? Upon action or completion? I get that everyone meets this feelings during their lifetime but is life so meager that just ignoring it and trying to “get” the most out of it is a goal in itself? I have to be a failure at my bosses’ eyes because his opinion differs and his optics are what defines the success... same with my parents and friends, am i so out of touch i have left all my friends behind? Have their spirits been crushed and have I driven out this moat between the mere separation of optics? Does being the light bearer means I will live in isolation due to my own perception? How could gods even device such trap? The forbidden knowledge, the distinction of good and evil, a curse in itself, not the knowing and doing but the knowing itself, the duality of life, if it were perfect there would not be bettering, if it were all bad there would be no intrinsic value to it... yet here I sit in the fence a mad idiot just hoping for deliverance and to have someone or something to pull me from this life, it all feels so surreal, I feel like I’m already dead, I feel the separation from my body, I still respect it as my earthly vehicle but I cannot crave death less, he’ll I see it as a freedom pass... yet here I am, tempted by reality to be trapped in its chains, every day a grueling toil where I just do and do not do, just to get by and see my life’s end at some point... guess I have nowhere to go and no one to be, yet I have to do both... I truly wish I could break from this mortal coil

Your disdain for qanon boomers shows you've never read Marx, which ironically proves the other anon right that most Marxists are not in fact the theory-reading intellectuals they claim to be, but wealthy children seeking "academic cred" for bourgeois clout. Plus a few lower middle class people who think they can partake in rich bourgeois "theory" dabbling as a prestigious fashion accessory and thereby ascend to bourgeois status, despite the fact that they make coffee every morning for the aforementioned rich people.

Marx shouldn't be insulted by associating his name with either of you. He at least actually cared about the lumpenproles while disdaining them. You just disdain them.

As Adorno says, wrong life cannot be lived rightly. Sick life cannot be lived healthily. The well-adjusted are much more terrifying than those who are looking for answers and finding shitty ones. At least the latter are looking.

Qanon has a theoretical basis, it's just retarded. Marxism has a theoretical basis that maybe one self-proclaimed Marxist in ten thousand understands or even tries to understand. The vast majority of Marxists back in the glory days of socialism during the fin de siecle period were all dumbass boomers whose knowledge of Marx was probably half bootleg Bakunin and half bootleg Duhring, plus a bit of steering from Engels. Part of why they were so effective is that a minority of people who truly understood the theory, many of whom had fairly ugly visions of humanity like Engels, were capable of so steering the mass of retarded workers with their "actual book" knowledge.

All this should be obvious from a Marxian critical perspective, is my point. If it isn't, you are more like the no-book-learnin' atheist union man who follows the workers' party because his friends do, not like the big Theory people at the top.

Engels' worldview was fucking gay and stupid, but he believed in something basically noble. Qanon has a retarded worldview but its hatred for satanic elites is basically noble and true enough. Same with Falun Gong or a dozen other examples, some of which involve Marxist hippie offshoots like the Wilhelm Reich weirdos. The problem with Qanon isn't that it isn't theoretical enough, because there is actually very little theory going on in Marxism either, from a historical perspective. The problem is that Qanon is probably a honeypot for manipulating schizos into self harm behaviors and directing them away from reforming the state through normal means. And the greater problem is that so many schizos are produced by the busted ass shitty bourgeois state first place, which a Marxist should understand and sympathize with, not shit on. I know you said you aren't one, just speaking generally here.

When I was in my early 20's I got arrested several times, mostly for fighting and drugs, and ended up serving two sentences.

Now that I'm in my late 20's and I have a completely different life to the point that no one I associate with knows about my past. Even my girlfriend doesn't know all the specifics and can respect that I dont want to talk about it. But I've been in a constant state of fear for the last couple of months that my friends will find out and I will lose everything again.

The thing is that I dont really consider my past self to be who I am anymore and I dont want anyone to judge me because of it. I know it would have been easier to be forthcoming with people but I'm too nervous that being open will just make my life harder than it already is.

Mental/spiritual ascent according to Bonaventure: a brief overview of the major aspects.

The soul has 6 faculties of differing levels and capacities, the deeper ones producing/fathering the lower levels, the deeper levels being more simplistic in composition whereas the more sensual they become the more complex. The greater the simplicity allows for the maximization of the kind of knowledge employed in each level.

These six faculties are the senses, the imagination, Reason, intellect, intelligence and the height of intelligence is Synderesis, which is to say, the apprehension of first principles such as identity, non-excluded middle and other such basic aspects of Being.

He believes that the Light of Synderesis is the vision of the Nonduality of Being-in-itself with the pure Being of God, thus reaching this origin point allows for contemplation of Godhead without obscurity.

First one uses the senses to judge various material aspects such as extension and one is to deduce harmony among matter and a common origin for matter through the senses.

Then imagination aided by faith is to consider the origin of the sensual within the divine, within the divine mind and so forth.

Then one is to rationally divide the nature of the sensual world into its parts and relations, this deduction process leads one to understanding the transcendental root of being of which one cannot experience but is wonderfully viewed as if an outsider looking in.

Bonaventure divides spiritual ascent into three phases, outside, inside and Above. The outside world first being used and then becoming like a mirror until the analysis of nature/phenomena breaks down in the rationality phase and the structure/body of reason within oneself becomes the target of analysis.

This interior cells of the reason would be referred to as the intellect which is seen to be the capacity of judgments to decide between various things, the potential to judge is understood to be rooted in deciding what is closer to pure being, what is closer to the best and the eternal.

For this reason Bonaventure believes the intelligence and judgments roots in the memory.

The memory is the root of man’s intelligence and being and is understood to Bonaventure to also be made up of all phenomenological pretension and protension, thus is connected in a Trinitarian fashion to the nature of time and eternity itself.

This memory receives its imprint, its original knowledge from the image of God in man which is the height of the soul/intellect itself, from which the spark of Synderesis/knowledge of being is attained, or to say it another way, Being is and knows itself perfectly in accordance with the laws and structures which govern it, its simplistic composition, and memory is the existence in time of the Pure Being

Thus by such a contemplation reached through worship and earnest contemplation one can link this world, being and the temporal with the eternal divinity of God through contemplation of the image of god ensouled within us, Christ is the key in this because the contemplative powers and the various powers of the mind/soul are weakened due to the fall and our intoxications with petty life and so forth, furthermore the distance of God from us makes it difficult. Christ however acts as a ladder which infuses the sensuous world through his life and his teaching with divine lights/sparks which can be used as the base of the contemplation, this is especially necessary since sense perceptions are bound by time and potentiality and thus are admixed with non being, therefore lacking perfection. However christ as a ultimate paradoxical creature/creator exists both in time and the eternal.

Bonaventure further elaborates there are two methods which intersect, the above method which after it is completed one then marvels and contemplates the Christ as person, personality, somehow existent in time while being this and the harmony of these natures, if however one uses the other cherub first, one contemplates in love the humanity and life of Jesus and this blossoms into contemplation of how this is connected to the eternity of god. This double tension reconciling would be the ultimate point which is only completed once in heaven.

I’m endlessly frustrated today… I had a good day, until the fucking furnace decided to stop working, then the landlord came and was perplexed by the state of the kitchen, mess in the bathroom. Why do I always feel like it’s my fucking duty to clean up after THREE fucking people in this goddamn house? Yes, I know I’m lazy, and yes, when things are not going well, when I have to live with the anxiety of all my shit being stolen because of some fucking old man who is losing it, whose dwindling motor functions and strength in his hand prevent him from closing the door, I get a little depressed and neglect my household duties. I’m so fucking fed-up with the state of this fucking life I live. Never again will I debase myself to things that cause untold anxiety, that can fuck me up for months on end. This fucking world is growing worse by the month. Fuck this fucking shit. I just want everyone to be happy, and I want everyone to do the best for themselves. If I survive, I will come out of this a better man, a more sincere man, with his goals in reach. I just want to survive. Please, God, let me survive.

I was in a great deal of pain for most of my life, pain that pushed me towards anger, towards alcohol, towards hurting people that loved me the most. So many awful mistakes I made in a blink of an eye, when I wasn't fully conscious of what I was doing.

The skill to stop and contemplate emotions is a powerful one which many people don't enjoy. What you need to do in your relationships is be honest about what you're feeling. You don't need to allow an emotion out without reviewing it, especially emotions which you know will cause you to act rashly. So long as you tell the other person what you're feeling and communicate your desire to create a mutually constructive relationship, you will have no problem forming and maintaining intimate relationships.

Normally I don't care about the fact that I don't have a girlfriend or any friends, and I normally cant relate to the whole Gosling meme or tfw no gf type posts, but for the past few days I have felt an incredibly tightness in my chest and the most horrible feeling of dread. Its like it has finally hit me how alone I am and how impossible it is for a girl to ever be interested in me. It seems so incomprehensible that girls can just get a boyfriend and have sex so easily and that most normal guys can just get a girlfriend. Seriously whenever I finish a book it happens in miniature and I quickly decide which book I'm going to read next because the same feeling that has fully come into being within my heart now feels like it descends upon me, but really only ever an inkling of what I feel now, and I have to quickly divert my attention away from it and focus on literature. I just feel such despair at the thought that I will never be able to have children. I really want kids and It will never happen.

I've given up on the goal idea of a purpose, the universe doesn't care what arbitrary goal I decide for myself. It doesn't matter in that way.

Perhaps my purpose is the fact I text my mother good morning and tell her I love her everyday during this period in time, with a global pandemic and her job becoming more stressful. Maybe its being there for a friend or a sibling in the coming months of years. Maybe its 40 years down the line, I pay for some one behind me in the drive thru. I accept that fact, that my life's grand purpose may be to make only person's day better one time.

I can't wait till I'm in a position where I can do that everyday.

I've lost all motivation to live. I quit my job, a few weeks early of being fired. I haven't been looking for new ones. I'm not even registered as unemployed to collect neetbux.

My mums patience for me is wearing thin. Her expectations keep sinking lower. I've been considering leaving and living in the streets. Sleeping in Mcdonalds, loitering in libraries.

All I need is just a push, the winter to end, my mum to kick me out, something to finally push me over that edge.
All to hopefully, finally die. Not directly a suicide but Lord knows I'm not helping myself.

I think it'd be a fun exercise to write a YA novel about people playing an MMO.

I have a lot of ideas for my own MMO that would be fun so I think that part would be easy, but the story is something that would need work. The MMO would have a one-of-a-kind item system where the best weapons in the game are truly rare, as only one will exist in the game world. There are no duplicates of any items; even healing potions would have some degree of uniqueness due to the quality of the herbs used in brewing them and the skill/technique of the chemist.

MC loses out on the best and most legendary weapon in the game due to favoritism. Not like "GM's gf gets loot she doesn't deserve" but a "corrupt loot council/guild officer clique" kind of deal. MC's pissed. The only way legendary loot can change owners is if the player voluntarily relinquishes it, or if the player stops playing for a full year. He sets forth an revenge plot using an alt of his that's the GM of a small, but well respected, roleplaying guild he had on the side for fun to wage war against his top end guild. No one knows that his two characters are the same person irl, and he takes advantage of that. I just came up with this idea 5 minutes ago so it'd need a lot of fleshing out. Maybe "loot drama" isn't a good premise either.

it is not enough to change the zeitgeist of one society; it is not even enough to change the zeitgeist of all societies. it is not enough to cleanse one society of its destructive political and economic system; it is not even enough to inflict the same on all societies. perhaps it is not even enough to make impossible the return of the destroyed political and economic system.

regardless: how do you make the return of that which has been destroyed impossible? won't the primitive, egalitarian, segmented society (which would, in the best case scenario, emerge from the destruction) inevitably evolve/devolve again into a cephalic proto-state – and thus setting in motion a new cycle of destruction?

It's frustrating to deal with miscommunication in the first place, but when someone seems upset even after you've explained it, it feels like it reveals something about that person.

Learning to code has been very fulfilling lately. I love how the task becomes slowly more grasp-able and orderly as you learn. It's a joy going from anxious squirming to effortless flow in a skill. Learning to learn is quite difficult but as long as you remind yourself of the phases you'll go through and the nessasary tensions to break a plateau you will ultimately succeed.

I've had several rich or fairly rich girlfriends and I've seen inside their world enough to know what the future looks like. It looks like upper class people like them invisibly dominating the lives of uglier, sadder, more distracted and run-down working class people through "gig economy" faggotry like Instacart and UberEats. God it's so fucking hideous when you really see it and realize what's coming. The upper classes are going to imperceptibly slide beyond the point that they could ever be removed, and the poor will just accept that their lives consist in puttering around for the rich and bringing them snacks so they can keep doing trendy internet bullshit and living carefree empty lives.

I hate it and it makes me sick to my stomach because it's not an abstraction, I know how these sick monsters live and I know how they see the world and the people "beneath" them. It's the worst possible zoomer entitlement, they are pond scum that exists to consume, but because their parents are wealthy they will OWN human beings, and they'll think they're cool while they do it. This emerging useless eater oligarch class needs to be smashed into trillions of pieces, disoriented, scattered and prevented from ever digging its claws in normal working people ever again. The more that is done to uproot these rich lackadaisical cocksuckers and prevent them from regaining their bearings, the better.

No matter how good your social reform is, if these parasitic vampires are allowed to permeate high society and positions of influence they WILL reestablish themselves.

Beauty means power, so beautiful girls know they can demand to be respected. Ugly/plain girls don't get as much attention, so it flatters them for some time, until at least one starts to feel jealous at the fact she is not the only one you are groping, then they'll team up under her guidance and give you a nasty surprise.

Sex-having anon here.
I feel like there's a difference between wanting it for yourself and wanting it for other reasons. (Social pressures, onlookers, family, purpose)
It's a really immediate response thing in which (during pursuit) you actively want it every second for yourself sans everything else. (Not sex but.. this partner)

I think you should figure out a way to please society around you in a way that doesn't require the pursuit in consent of a second party (which requires a genuine will)

I am also rudely inferring you are more comfortable without sex than you may realize.

A dream in the woods. A different decade. Wrapped beneath a leafless red blanket, she is mine. The trivialities and burdens of a late 20’s something are lifted for this moment. I exist to take her virginity. She exists to give it. A secret of the subconscious. I flip over the Fright Night vinyl. “Save Me Tonight.” Where is the vampire in our story?

Headlights appear. A friend. An argument about the make out spot. Something’s wrong. The moon was not for aesthetics. He transforms, and we talk. “A werewolf can totally beat a vampire.” I secretly agree but for the sake of the script we carry on.

I wake and someone’s still there. My head is awash in emotion. I try and bargain with myself: “Buy Charline flowers.” I put it back on the night stand. It would make her jealous. Dreams aren’t meant for anyone else, even soulmates.

Sometimes I think I would rather be alone so I can have more time to pursue my hobbies and interests. A lot of times I feel too tired and burnt out to maintain relationships with women or talk to anyone, yet sometimes I will meet a specific girl that I really want to go out with and then if I mess up it will bum me out. Other times I push away women because I would rather be alone or I am indifferent to if it fails, but when I find a girl I enjoy being around I get upset when it doesn't work out. I don't know what I want really. I guess a girl, but a specific type of girl and only that type. I'm way too picky and I feel it has cost me some chances with women.

Not because I believe in it, but because it extends American control over other nations and cultures. I remember seeing BLM protests in places like Germany and Ireland this summer, and the thought came to me: "These people are completely devoted to the US. They care so much about our issues, our minorities. We had protests/riots and they started imitating us. We lead and they follow." The same goes for Latinx stuff; we are literally bending a language spoken on multiple continents to our will. We write an op-ed on some liberal magazine and entire countries change their laws/customs to do our bidding. LGBT rights are pushed in places that oppose us, and once they are put in place, the might of our cultural machine goes to work. Within a generation these nations speak English, watch American media, and keep up with American issues as much as those of their own nations.

As a result, it is the imperative of every American to spread these ideologies outside the USA as much as possible. Doing so expands our control over the world.

In a society built on commodity fetishism (indeed, the Atlantic Slave Trade, which was the formative backbone of the United States, was perhaps the supreme realization of this ethos insofar as was realizable at the time through the literal commodification of actual human lives), memory is not useful, or at least no longer the central medium of human thought. Commodities that have already been purchased immediately lose some--if not all--of their appeal. It is the lust, eros, after fresh and new commodities that drives the economy and thus, from a neoliberal (i.e. dominant) standpoint, society itself. The food in your fridge is less appealing than the very same food when placed on the shelf of a supermarket. The books on your shelf are less appealing than the books on the shelf of a bookstore. The very memories and schemas in your mind themselves are less appealing than the thoughts on the internet awaiting to be readily ingested (this is empirically verifiable through the general rule that many, many more people lurk than post). Why use your own synthesized judgement when the judgement of a field expert, or at least someone claiming to be a field expert, is only a few keystrokes away? When attempt to recall some trivia when it too is available, indexed in the servers of some multinational corporation?

The commodification of information itself, though in some sense having begun with the advent of the printing press, has in the last twenty years very visibly seen an exponentially rising dominance within the overall ethos of the United States. Data science is rapidly becoming offered as a major concentration in universities across the US as field specialists are increasingly demanded, both as a result of and to ensure the continuation of, this movement. It seems to me like we are in some sense moving back towards the commodification of human lives themselves that this nation was implicitly founded on, only this time the ones seeing themselves commodified are not limited to a single ethnic group. We are returning to the sixteenth century, only this time with a completely impenetrable zeitgeist heralding this return to human commodification as some sort of progress towards reason. As far as I can tell, STEM majors (especially CS/DS majors, including myself up to recently) see themselves as shepherds of some sort of inherently good rationalist movement, seemingly blind to this much darker movement they are helping to progress.

I passed among silver trees
who’s fruit singed gold songs
abounding in the never old
dreams of the daily born dancing Dawn

the sky image drawn
of the softest smile
ever forgotten
and yet remembered

silent slithers the secret serpent
the Wolf Wails in the wintry wastelands
terrible talons toy with dead flesh
but All-blest sees the eye of the Heart

soft and plain is the scent
which renders the heavens Rent
beauty lays herself bare

I think I struck upon a great discovery today. There is a distinct difference between exercising human justice and judging someones character. One can find that justice and peace require such and such a punishment, that human society requires laws and punishments to function peacefully. But this is not the same as saying that just because a person did something which is a crime to human society, tha this person can then be wholly condemned. It has to be possible to maintain that society requires certain things (for instance, some could say, regulations on drug use) for the peace without therefore saying that anyone who engages in this activity is therefore a bad person. If it is possible in any way to truly be a good or a bad person, then I think it is God who keeps track of this. This doesn't mean that we can't keep eachother to account, but it does say something of the spirit in which we should do so. In the Dao De Jing it is said that going to war should be treated as going to a funeral- I think something similar applies here. A great respect, and a solemnity in the face of what has become a necessity.
