Controlling Time

Snakeroot Drifts

    What is the difference between a Joke, Singularity and a Ponzi Scheme. 

   Comedians are familiar with Paradigm Shifts. When you ask why, it's because a joke, funniness, harvests sudden movements in the direction of thought which produce chemical changes in the body, it's a eureka moment that puts a smile on the face, a glow to the system.

  In physics a Singularity is a point in time and/or space where the usual mathematics doesn't happen. Amongst the Tech Type people Singularity is when, what they call Artificial Intelligence or Gulf of America Intelligence takes over from what some call Human Intelligence.

  A "Robbing Peter to pay Paul" or Ponzi Scheme goes this way: To keep your promise to Paul you have to get money from Peter. The money you now owe Peter will have to come from someone.

  The picture you paint frames a predictive impression of tomorrow.

Talk is Cheap, so are pictures

Asparagus gone to seed

     Please note that Madison Avenue 101 has nothing to do with the word true and this is why no sentient being should ever take what any class of politician says seriously.

  Witness the KGB practice of Reflexive Control which goes this way: "Rather than using brute physical power, reflexive control is the practice of predetermining an adversary's decisions by feeding them specially prepared information."

  One tradition in this area is to terrify the shit out of people so they kick out everyone who isn't a White Christian English Speaker or in the Russian case kick out everyone who isn't White Russian Speaking supporter of Vladimir Putin. In Russia, since Ivan III kicked the Mongols out of Moscow, the word Nerus, which literally means Not Russian, is a derogatory expression along the lines of retarded, idiotic moronic virtue signalling libtard. The Russian elite, increasingly supported by the Gop-elite and despite the best efforts of Russian Cinema, have referred to Black Africans as Monkeys since Lenin and DJT. 

  Here we go! You decide what you want people to think. You create a picture, draw attention to the picture, watch as people react to the picture, you then move on to part two which is to create another picture that has learned from the first picture and you use the new picture to reinforce those parts of the first picture that created the greatest stir.

  Tech Bros anyone!!!!

Humanities Dinosaur Moment

Mellon

   We people model the world. We people, in our attempts to better understand and make real our models of the world  have invented new languages like Physics, Math, Chemistry, theology, theater and so on.

 We people don't know anything about the experience an Elephant has of its model of the world. Nor do we have the slightest clue about the model a Dandelion has of the world. And least of all do we experience the model an electron, a quark, an atom or a molecule have of the world.

 The tool makers in our number are currently trying to borrow a couple of squillion extra dollars to train the difference between positive and negative charges in electromagnetic waves to relieve us people of the horribly inefficient consequences of chemical processes which first occurred here on earth almost four billion years ago and which reached a peak of frightfulness nearly two billion years ago when animal type things took umbradge with plant type things.

The Sea of Grief or the Gate of Tears.

Wingstem

     In and around 30 BC when Rome conquered Egypt, the Levant, including Bethlehem and all that, Frankincense and Myrrh were a really big deal.

  They weren't some knock off trinkets that smelled nice in a Christmas stocking before oranges and tangerines became available. Frankincense and Myrrh were big pecus, Aureus up the wazoo, tech bro type money, the kind of thing you hung on your backpack to impress the girls. Even back then the easiest way to get your exotic Oriental and East African decorative accents and other products into the Roman Market was up through Red Sea to Aqaba or Suez.

  Not easy under any circumstances, and worth remembering that the Sabaeans, who were once ruled by the Queen of Sheba had a bit of a strangle hold on what the Romans called the Fauces Rubri maris, the Jaws of the Red sea which is now being called The Bab al-Mandab, Gate of Tears. 

  Yemen used to get much more rain, they were fertile, they had good land. palaces and Girl Kings. The Romans divided the Arabian Peninsular into Rocky Arabia, Deserted Arabia, and Fertile Arabia, Yemen was in Fertile Arabia. Yemen produced some of the best pr-Islamic Arab Poets.

  When the Queen of Sheba was nosing around Solomon, the Hebrew clans called the Red Sea, The Sea of Reeds. If you want to know why I'd suggest you move your mind into the past and remember that Solomon had commercial and territorial interests in the mysterious lands to his South, and Sheba had commercial and territorial interests in the mysterious lands to her North.

  Solomon was a King of territory. He reigned over land, pasture and crops, that had been given to his people by the God of the Israelites called Yahweh. Sheba was a Queen of trade routes. She reigned over safe places for traders, that meant having to know, understand and not piss off a panoply of different gods.

  Solomon understood that exotic stuff came from Teiman, which means South. South for Solomon was somewhere down there, beyond the Sea of Reeds.  When Sheba visited Solomon she knew exactly where Jerusalem was and exactly how to get her caravan safely to Jerusalem. The Israelites were more wedded to the land, when they wanted to cross water they asked God to part the waves. Sheba knew more about boats than Solomon.
