what do i know?
Well (ahhahhh a 4th saudade i forgot her how could i !!...) it takes a wise Ukrainian to lament the fact that so many older people have no one to even make their cups of tea,
(the death, let's hope temporary, of family - me i need no one to ever make anything for me as i accepted death long ago and it means you have far more energy to always crawl over to the stove..or just keep it next to you organised for first thing in the morning the SIMPLE life... theres always a solution...and no mere 'illness' ever gets me down...)
and obviously the equation is that we as a society cannot afford 500 quid a week in some 'home'..(where so often the owners rip everyone off especially their residents spending their 'food' allowance on something that is not 'food'... as its cheaper.... for so many.
No one will talk about in the UK all virtue signalling they are 'carers' when in fact they should put their heroic Joan of Arc time ( a lot spent getting fat bums on their 'clients' cake) into doing ACTUAL real much harder 'good works' on this actual earth like working tio help the damaged family down the road - all getting each other arrested or using some proxy, called 'authority' to express their inner pain.... help them sort things out and thus saving the future generations loads more 'care' costs..
No one ever does, as thats REAL hard work...
There is no hope - at LAST a Person of The Book... who knows THEMIX - mind body in one... needs a load of good outdoors UV and sweaty rambling in the hills....
on top of actual food.
And the truly great dilemma - i cannot decide now, if i had a gun to my head or even worse was forced to use 'AI' to communicate for the rest of life... The Orangeman did indeed do less war... however in the longform three hours chat with Mister steroids, he let it all out how total petrolhead he is.. so there is only one question in politics which is will RFKjr as innercircle powerman and confirmed " give me your bible please..page 2 top right hand corner it says and your boss says you have to look after his garden...now i have a red pen i shall circle it for yuou so you dont forget... as every church i have ever met seems to... curious as if you dont follow orders from the boss it tends not to end well for y'all... me i did my bit on THAT one at least, i get a free pass through the pearlies.."...be able to temper his hyydrocarbon habits...
Could he be persuaded to be greener? I doubt it somehow...
so ... no comment... no idea, except once a prophecy is made - vociferously enough as it has been by a range of good rhetoricians at least, - that the Democrats became even more neocon than the formerly more neocon Republicans...... I just don't know
SAbine Hossenfelder i do trust as she TELLS HER STORY... mixes in with polemic her personal real journey...and mood changes etc...and she thinks 'climate' change is possibly more serious than the accepted predictions
Impoossible to chose...
BUt i also know - listening to a few facts based modern historians - just the facts... the last month or so, the reality is the unesteemed will always be a bit wonky, fact of life, because the fact of life is that If...as has been the case, a whole YAnkee 'Carrier Group' is moved into a region as they have...and are pondering a second...
That is it.
They have far more powerful bombs and planes and are simply in charge...of everything...
As they slowly move a few planes to that base and a few others to that one they have the whole region dominated, period... What they want will sooner or later come to pass. Might is 'right' sadly is all there is...
No protest or politics or opinion makes much difference having reequipped the US military machine Obama started Trump continued.. even if he didn't seek wars...
Simple reality.
And if Sunni and Shia shake hands, in front of a common enemy.. after a few centuries, that doesnt make much difference either despite all the pundits showing off interpreting that one as some great new era..
So, no personality makes any difference really..
Unless - the only 'hope' for actual change... stories - books, essays writings of such splendid power and real emotion can come back into fashion..
George Elliot her books DID change society ditto Dickens even if he a bit of a bleak user...
hmmm...
And if God is ... well surely having given humans such astonishing powers such as imagination (that causes 'good') that AI will never match as it is liminal and unharnessable and counter ALL the 'rules'...
never mind a great body to use..
surely we should do these things to the max down here before any maybe End Times... hold on to the bitter end just keeping to a reasonable time immemorial plan of good works down on this pestilent earth where no one (over 25) answers any messages any more as if they WANT the end times..
cos solidarity or collaborating on good ideas for books n films is the only way we evolve in my opinion...knowledge....
And the memaids (ohh god her line on yoga - paradise ! she's more second sight than me...sees through the BS !! we need to collaborate on educating... all of them!)
