The Journal of Lingering Sanity, is a reader supported publication. My surname Stegiel is Polish and funny to say not only my father, but his six brothers “Americanized” their surname; each male 1st generation Pole found their own new life name in GERMANTOWN, Wisconsin, during the Great Depression; each surname instead corresponding I guess to fitting sound to letter that sounded—yup-German.
Life is lived forward and backwards. Looking backwards from the present past with my THC Karmic Krystal probing the deep universe I have trouble in mind “The time has come," the Journal said, "To talk of many things: Of shoes—and ships—and sealing-wax— Of cabbages—and kings— And why the sea is boiling hot— And whether pigs have wings."
Well in an extremely dark scientific experimental room of captivity surrounded only by burning candles illuminating the cavern created to see from the human is a moth being scrutinized studied in this metamorphosis of Moth-Manhood. Surely exist -angelic, indifferent, demonic, multiple teams who take raw human data to make honey in the Hive. Left brain dominance. https://channelmcgilchrist.com/matter-with-things/.
Still we flit with flame.
I posted earlier something which is forgotten really in all the gab.
It ain’t no conspiracy kids. This time it’s real. We are crazy. From Lahaina to Gaza to Kiev there is WAR. A desperate war all in all because the tiny few are desperate and insane in the Left Brain. Consider: the inhumanity of Yuval Noah Harari who is House Philosopher to the WEF. “I think the maybe the most important thing for people to realize about living in the 21st century, as against the Middle Ages or the Stone Age, is that we are now hackable animals.” OR “I strongly believe that given the technologies we are now developing, within a century or two at most, our species will disappear. I don’t think that in the end of the 22nd century, the Earth will still be dominated by Homo sapiens.” I understand the case can be made Harari is simply a reporter on technological probability but I do not make it. I think instead he is a propagandist. In DADA Tzara quipped “our heads are round to let our thoughts change direction.” Harari heads are filled with gray matter from words. A swollen brain frames Left Hemisphere fantasy questions badly.
A brain swollen in this fashion focuses entirely upon gratification and escape. IF billions can be removed from the world and inorganic children are taught a Brave New Story can this Beloved Consumerism continue forever and a day? YES says the WEF brain trust. Now they turn to the Priest Prophet Yuval Noah Harari who is I remind you also House Philosopher to the WEF and ask-is nuclear war our ARK?
I spoke today also on Ellul and how our time creates Technique Man. This is a subject I consider often. Could we have had Covid with no Cubicle Slave Culture of Mass Conformity-Covid Communism then where mistakes are made without intending mistakes shown in a very hazy gentle light or Fascism in a harsh white where we have proof there was an order but one we never find. Could we have atomic war without total conformity and short run thought? Will we?
Pablo Casals-“If there is in man infinite capacity for good, there is also infinite capacity for evil. Every one of us has within himself the possibilities of both…My mother used to say ‘Every man has good and bad within him. He must make his choice. You must hear the good in you and obey it.’”
