1-2-24 - I don't believe in needing science and data to make decisions and know what is true
Scientific research is difficult to work w/ - because no matter what we do to measure - it's never going to reflect reality fully. It's a horrible basis to start from in that regard. It's nice for isolating variables, but using it for everything is overreliance. I'm against 'show me the scientific rigor or it doesn't exist - because science is about observing what does - it's not reality in of itself).
Relying on science for everything is biased. Logical fallacies

- appeal to authority
- w/ - intellect
- absence of evidence
- just because we don't know something exists - doesn't mean it doesn't
- it just means we're too incompetent to see what's in front of us
- science reflects our ignorance and incompetence
- which is why it's a horrible basis
- and - reality, truth, common sense - are better

12-9-23 - what is bloodlust
- memory
- I used to have bloodlust - but trained myself away from it
- reason - why take from others - where you get for yourself
- i.e. - success
- via - altruism
- to prop oneself up - you can either take or give
- giving - = true ∞
- harder - reason - takes brain power -> create something new
- that's why bloodlust - feels better
- but you can get the 'high' from any adrenaline rush
- ex - running
- a.k.a. - runner's high
- better it be something - nice > not
- reason - we can do better - than degrade ourselves
- by - stooping low
- -> - associate - w/ what we don't want around

def
- high caused by adrenaline that leads to euphoria
- of which you'd need to do more to keep and have that high
- similar -> - runner's high
- from - being put into - 'fight or flight' mode
- that mechanism - breaks into a loop
issue - delusion trap!

- feels 'freeing'
- that push for freedom - makes you keep wanting more
- issue - isn't truly freeing
- reasons
- you're stuck - in addiction
- there's a limit - -> how much damage can be done
- till - you're left w/o
- it's dependence - on a sys
- not - true independence

12-8-23 - why I believe in ghosts
Reason - they are voids in the fabric of spacetime - they're not wishes. They exist whether or not people see them. We even create ghosts in our own existence, because we're always 'dying' in various threads in our life that we don't participate in. These continue on without us as imprints on the universe! (because you weren't in a location - the dynamics of interaction act differently than if you were. This can happen after you leave, before you show up, while you're there, or if you never were there in the first place). Still - because you were there and not anymore - that imprint's within the universe - the universe still carries out the motions of reacting to the point of being. It's not a 'life' per se, but a void of what life was there. It relates to consciousness - because our brains pick it up - due to working off of consciousness imprints. Ghosts are a consciousness imprint.
Don't believe me? Have you ever visited a location and didn't go back for many years - and then went back and everyone remembers you - from when you were there. They worked off of their memories until you came back? That's your ghost of your past! You did exist - it was real, and the imprint still has an observable effect that is measurable. We're ghosts to the infinite direction threads we're not located in and only 'living' in the threads we are.
Ghosting makes us pseudo-alive, because we're 'alive' in the void.

12-5-23 - why Century City went bust
cgi - replaced props
story
Century City was home to 20th century fox studios. They'd film in studio city - where universal studios is, but the offices were in Century City. Century City did the props. Once CGI took over - there was no more need to create custom-made eccentric materials and objects. So it lost its status. It's still pretty glamorous, but got absorbed into Los Angeles - no longer being its own city. I personally still feel there's a place for props - especially with experimentation and seeing what materials work best where, but then you can do the rest with CGI. Well then again - you can do everything with CGI and that's why Studio City also got absorbed into Los Angeles.
Los Angeles grabbed up nearby cities for trying to obtain water rights of a small dam that eventually broke. Anaheim did too. If it didn't break - Southern California would be all Los Angeles! Well that's why, even though Universal City's unincorporated and is an easy grab with CGI making work-at-home a reality (i.e. - no more filming movies on set), as is Beverly Hills - being surrounded by LA, they're not going to be. Maybe these cities will be their own again (especially w/ the SAG-AFTRA strikes), but I doubt it due to the changing hollywood scene.

8-21-23 - correction - badness can be put to good use to bring about good instead
Note
thoughts
I believe there's nothing 'wrong', only a % away from success, because no one truly knows what's right or wrong for anything in terms of what's the 'true' direction to go in for life. All we know is what's correct and incorrect via the facts we know. This is why it's difficult to punish - because we are just one opinion of many! So instead of punishing, if we think of 'wrong' directions as instead something 'undesirable', as 'true' is really just a basis of desirable > undesirable for some altruistic direction - be it oneself, the world, etc. - that if we want to make something 'work', we'd take something undesirable (like a behavior) and make it desirable (i.e. - work on our behalf). Reason - everything has a value - it's all about utilizing it. Sometimes energy is placed into 'bad' and 'wrongdoing' > what's being done -> good. If you take the bad energy and turn it in-> good - then you >good - while <bad!
ex's
- this isn't a justification for wrongdoing to perpetuate it
- instead - it's about methods of how -> utilize bad - -> good
- instead of - trashing it
- due -> - its value!
- and - the value associated with the wrongdoing
- that is - good - in of itself
- and - the value associated with the wrongdoing

8-12-23 - why I'm against hating on the wealthy
- Not every wealthy person is bad - and certainly sometimes it's the opposite - where they need our help and we let them down!
- Hating on wealthy relinquishes us of tending to matters that're supposed to be our responsibility by blaming others for our own ineptitudes - and that's plain wrong!
- discrimination generalizations are - unethical
- i.e. - hurtful - in a really - dangerous, wrong way!
- i.e. - a coverup of ineptitudes
- that lead - -> >>burden - on any one individual
- world's - meant -> relieve burden
- by - taking it upon oneself - -> - pitch in, help out
- not - leave it to - others, society - -> get the job done
- when - oneself creates it!
- we're all here - -> make the world - a better place - -> live in!

- i.e. - hurtful - in a really - dangerous, wrong way!
- the social order is supposed to be where
- the wealthy takes care of the impoverished
- in turn - the impoverished are thankful and enjoy/embrace - what the wealthy gave -> them
- i.e. - win-win situations!
- not - hating on wealthy
- -> - where wealthy struggle - w/ issues - -> not be able to help
- and burden - gets shoved onto impoverished
- where impoverished fail
- impoverished have as much of a responsibility - as wealthy
- -> contribute - -> society

- it's up to the impoverished - -> support the wealthy - as much as possible
- -> - help them

5-19-23 - real masculinity crisis - promoting femininity as the epitome of masculinity
masculinity duping
It takes femininity to create masculinity
What's deemed most manly are actually feminine. This is especially prevalent in modern times - and so when they build masculnity off femininity - and then fail to be masculine and wonder why - well this is why:
- masculinity - types
- real - powerful, protecting, directional (inspiring, etc.)

- Men biologically are all females turned male after conception.
- estrogen helps women live longer
- perseverance - >masculine
- The steroids that livestock get injected with to get muscles are estrogenic steroids. Why? Because it's estrogen (esp - estradiol) that provides the strength and musculature - at a height testosterone just can't do. Testosterone is more for speed, rather than solidity and bulk.
- esp - in US
- bone strength (from estrogen) is key to lifting and doing more > muscle is
- men need estrogens in their body
- or at least - severely useful
- men need estrogens in their body
- but they are also dangerous

- At the gym - the most chugged foods would be whey and eggs - the most feminine body parts of an animal's body. After that - they'll eat poultry breast or thighs - more feminine products.

5-14-23 - elder neglect laws are unconstitutional

- because breaking the law just moved slavery backwards legally
- it presented an image that slaves would have tendencies for criminal behavior
- i.e. - it doesn't help
- just makes matters worse
- ex - created a culture where criminals are hailed as heroes

Google should have a medical disclaimer on their website
Google doesn't explain that if you're not a medical professional you shouldn't self-diagnose -> self-treat
because google is a free service - they won't protect anyone - because if no one cares to pay for them, what do they care about going out of their way to help you?
If Google wants to improve the health and wellbeing of their users, regardless of what they get paid, it would be best if they have a disclaimer

If Google wants to improve the health and wellbeing of their users, regardless of what they get paid, it would be best if they have a disclaimer

time is money.
- people barter time
- not - money

- so if someone gets paid $10/hr and another $30/hr
- 3 $10 hours = 1 $30 hour
- so if someone gets paid $10/hr and another $30/hr
- people don't work for sustenance
- but to help out
- types - themselves, others
- reason - already have enough money -> get by
- reason
- not
- succumb to pressures -> do something bad
- -> - beg for money - from someone else
- reason - that money is theirs
- they aren't responsible for your life
- people should instead try to collect what is - abandoned, their own
- they aren't responsible for your life
- reason - that money is theirs
- avoid - being dependent on sys's -> get by
- i.e. - <dependency
- give > take
- not
- but to help out
- don't expect to be paid
- only when others benefit
- they decide how much something's worth to them
- pay -> supply + demand
- of - need - in world
- not - based on ability -> live
- of - need - in world

econo-political sys - my ideal
intellectual anarchy - anarchism (personal responsibility) while taking care of others to focus on intellectualism (utopian visions and solving world problems - open sourcing) but being mindful of resources at the same time and efficient in trying to not use them (resource-based economy). None of this involves demolishing already existing structures nor preventing others from upholding them - but only those that want to participate to follow this path.
Idea-based altruistic independence - on a free access (of resources) platform Positive-sum game - through teamwork I believe at the core everyone's responsible for their own ideas. Whatever they think of - they are responsible for making it thrive themselves. That's where economic value comes in - where money comes from worth - the value and benefit generated towards the good of society - i.e. altruism. No one should hire anyone, nor should they charge money for their products. People can give donations, but they can't ask for them. People can benefit from the value their creations provide though and barter. They can utilize whatever they need to propel their idea - provided they don't take it for themselves (as it's not theirs to take) nor prevent others from it either - as that's exploitation and selfishness/conceitedness (utilizing the essence - the value of one to build off another is fine - in a way that doesn't impact what they're taking from that takes away from their existence - i.e. - direction of being. This is collaborative pivoting - everyone building off each other through teamwork). The economic driver, the incentive is optimistic altruism - i.e. providing value to the world to make it a better place it live in. To give more than take - means to turn nothing into something - to use you as a source of value rather than the pseudo version of using making others look like you to build your look more falsely - which is a facade. No - misuse, only fairness Open-sourcing and copylefting is the way to go to make teamwork open-sourced, but only if it's not misused. People can be closed in their teamwork for efficiency of building ideas (i.e. - brainstorming, etc.) - provided it doesn't create unfairness and injustice if it's blocking the flow of progress. So if something needs to be opened up, but in a way that won't lead to abuse of the opening to destroy the good created - that should be favored to allow for access of resources to grow. Derivative works are allowed - everyone's allowed to build off of other's ideas provided they don't take away from the original motion nor others trying for the same. |
The internet archive wasn't right in what they did (i.e. creating an emotional battle of a political movement to conceal their wrongdoing by making it acceptable if not supported to help it along by concealing it through shifing the focus to what others do wrong - a pseudo promotion of criminal outcroppings) - but this is an example of unlawful silencing of freedom of thought and expression - telling people what to do when it shouldn't be this way.

Only you should pay for your own college (w/ exceptions)
Exceptions
Background story
When I was in high school, in government class (i.e. 2008-9), the teacher asked how the government can support people going to college? I said that the government shouldn't pay and that students should pay their way. I got a tremendous amount of backlash from the entire class. One said - how could I get a decent job if the government doesn't pay? To that, I replied - is the job guaranteed? They said no, but it's about the likelihood, which is a wishy washy answer - as that means no. They got angry and left. To me, that person doesn't deserve the job if they can't manage to do the pre-work for the job themselves - they're unqualified. So it doesn't even make sense (California logic is backwards). At that moment, I knew that this issue would become enormous and a disaster and I tried to stay away from it as much as I could. Turned out I was right about the student debt crisis and the lack of jobs people got. The government pretty much turned into a nanny state with students being useless.
With students paying their own way, they would take more responsibility in selecting and would make their own choice - not anyone else (unlike current laws).
My original idea - crisis averter
What works better's people getting jobs and then if the industry is calling for it for a desired position, then pay for one's own training while keeping the job (because once you leave, you leave your chances of getting that spot). That way, you're ahead of the game financially and positionally for when it comes time - as then you have experience with the company enough for them to trust you. Although it didn't turn out for me like this (I went to college, because I didn't know how to get jobs, due to my parents not letting me get them - for their ability to claim me as a dependent on their taxes - and they said they'd pay for it - which put me in a really vulnerable position where I got criticized for being 'lucky' by those around me when I was not - so I was vehemently attacked for my race and position in the major I got, as well as not being able to decide my life at all - my parents chose the major and college, all the way down to where I would live. I ended up dropping out from the severe trauma that my depression gave me, and my 'career' jobs paid 1/3 of minimum wage if it even was a career job, as one was just tutoring - which would last 1 day.

This is at most, because there are many topics that're more relevant to one's survival (i.e. success) in life. This includes ham radio, finance (personal - budgeting, banking; entrepreneurship, jobs, stock market, etc.).
Going to college for one's own improvement should really be done when someone's retired and wants to learn something new - when learning from life is either tapped out or not enough. At that time, they'd have enough money that they're not going to use to make college a hobby that betters oneself possibly into inspiration. They may even teach youth there what they know, but likely if it's all seniors, then they will only be around themselves, which isn't a bad thing - they all can be friends. It's just with pandemics and the internet, going in person doesn't make as much sense for seniors, but they could learn in a hybrid or online format where they are.
Success -> $0
I also believe in teaching oneself on one's own, for free. That's why when open courseware (note - don't donate to MIT) and MOOCs came out - I was all over it! I supported it tremendously.

That's where citizen science comes in. With YouTube giving out the most recent lectures from any university and non-profit in the world on just about any class/topic, it makes college (i.e. going in person and paying) virtually obsolete. These tools alone, along with all the course websites published and free textbooks on Open Library should be enough to support someone to create free tools for others, like personal websites (and YouTube videos, e-books, etc.) to display essays and projects - for research learning what's possible, and open sourced software - so others can continue on their own and go above and beyond whatever had been done by you. Just laying the foundation of your pyramid level to create the next stepping stone in the ladder of civilization's greatest extents of achievements towards its goal!
- business gives you a job and then requires training to maintain it or get a different position (due to the position loss)
- if the government needs you
- then they should pay you
- purpose - country - improve, save
- jobs - needed -> moment - civil engineers, rocket scientists, etc.
- researcher
- jobs - needed -> moment - civil engineers, rocket scientists, etc.
- not - letting people choose their own major to pay for someone else's responsibility
Background story
When I was in high school, in government class (i.e. 2008-9), the teacher asked how the government can support people going to college? I said that the government shouldn't pay and that students should pay their way. I got a tremendous amount of backlash from the entire class. One said - how could I get a decent job if the government doesn't pay? To that, I replied - is the job guaranteed? They said no, but it's about the likelihood, which is a wishy washy answer - as that means no. They got angry and left. To me, that person doesn't deserve the job if they can't manage to do the pre-work for the job themselves - they're unqualified. So it doesn't even make sense (California logic is backwards). At that moment, I knew that this issue would become enormous and a disaster and I tried to stay away from it as much as I could. Turned out I was right about the student debt crisis and the lack of jobs people got. The government pretty much turned into a nanny state with students being useless.
With students paying their own way, they would take more responsibility in selecting and would make their own choice - not anyone else (unlike current laws).
My original idea - crisis averter
What works better's people getting jobs and then if the industry is calling for it for a desired position, then pay for one's own training while keeping the job (because once you leave, you leave your chances of getting that spot). That way, you're ahead of the game financially and positionally for when it comes time - as then you have experience with the company enough for them to trust you. Although it didn't turn out for me like this (I went to college, because I didn't know how to get jobs, due to my parents not letting me get them - for their ability to claim me as a dependent on their taxes - and they said they'd pay for it - which put me in a really vulnerable position where I got criticized for being 'lucky' by those around me when I was not - so I was vehemently attacked for my race and position in the major I got, as well as not being able to decide my life at all - my parents chose the major and college, all the way down to where I would live.

Lives are empires
- each life's empire can overlap
- parts - power, people, finance, etc.
- edges
- note - can - change
- w/ - time
- realm - where you actually go
- domain - the potential that you can get to
- note - can - change
why I choose to live
- utilitarianism - living = resources [taken < saved]
- I have a chance to help out the world
- there's a lot left for me to do and explore
- the longer I'm alive, the greater
- chance for opportunity to get done what I need to
- value I provide to the world (provided it's utilitarian)

- Jon Favreau - film directing - the best!
10-24-21 - Why ectogenesis helps anyone have kids
Ectogenesis (source: http://www.worldfuturefund.org/Reports/Genesis/Newgenesis.html): birth outside the womb
There was a 1930s book called The World in 2030, by Frederick Edwin Smith that explained how freeing it would be to women if they didn't have to get pregnant to reproduce (i.e. ab initio). What this book didn't explain is its impacts on men. If ectogenesis exists, then men would be able to have their own children without women, and that'd be a game-changer for them, as then both women and men can have as many children as they want to without the limits of biology.
Science shows there can be 2 male gene halves that can make babies
but outside of that - digital beings can allow us to have as many kids as we want
