Happy New Year

New year, new me? Many musings go unrecorded. Reflections, predictions and innovations. It's time that changed. 

First post & test post. 

Happy 2025.

The People Vs Elon Musk

 How many times are you going to think the football is kickable, Charlie Brown? For those unaware, Elon Musk has begun following the same protocol of shadow bans, debanking and outright removal that he allegedly used to rail against. It's almost as if the ones shouting how they can be trusted with the ring of power, behave the same way everyone before them did- even in a MAGA hat. The answer is and has always been to build & grow your own platforms. Even if Elon was once the hero people believed he was, (jury still out & not looking good) it's infantile to think he would then never take a ticket. In Elon's case, cashing in said ticket- where he uses his ability to manipulate the platform he bought, for his own goals.  Here's the next level though, there's nothing wrong with that. It's actually on you for falling for it. The only hope, however waning, is for Charlie Brown to play football elsewhere.  -Codd

Flat Earth Fallout

The one thing that is not even a debate around flat earth is the amount of energy in the pushback. I've had a front row to social media outrage for going on 7 years now. Dropping hard Rs, naming the jews, zionism, endorsing Trump, making fun of Trump, moon landing, even the esoterics around the trinity- all a distant 2nd to flat earth pushback. I have no idea what happened with "the final experiment" recently but I do know branding and psyops. I've become an expert in both. TFE was 'the flat earth' originally and just like Joe Biden pushing some random initiative about crack pipes was to circumvent a Google search result about "Biden crack pipe" (running cover for Hunter), this is the same thing. To what aim? I only have speculations, but it isn't because the false god of science got its feelings hurt. There's something else going on.

Why The Genie Couldn't Grant Love As A Wish

It recently dawned on me why the legends of genies who grant three wishes (or in some lore, unlimited wishes) had one specific limitation. Since I first learned of this limitation, I had just assumed it was a unique axiomatic addition to the stories, but not one that was neccesarily required. However I was recently reflecting on the nature of love, choice & free will and something occurred to me. Since the fundamental nature of unconditional love, is one that comes naturally and of the free will of the person giving it- to force someone (even through magic) is paradoxical. If the wish-grantee would be given said impossible wish of being loved by an individual, they would always know that it was only because of the wish, and not something that was given to them freely. Love by it's nature isn't transactional, earnable or obtainable through coercion. Therefor it is literally impossible for the genie to grant such a request. On a theological & philosophical level, there is...
