You think this ends well? Never forget that debt is slavery… at ANY interest rate. Hold the people to account who insist on placing their yoke on you! And quit voting for stuff you don’t have the money for! Contrary to what these crooks tell you, no one is going to ‘cover’ your portion for …

Did you know that the Earth has its own vibrational frequency? It does. It is 7.83 Hertz (Hz), and it’s called the Schumann Resonance. When your brain is at its ultimate state of relaxation, like the state you might experience with practiced meditation (not sleep), your brainwaves are operating in this same frequency. It is …

There is an old saying, “Don’t confuse brains with a bull market.” I tried to tell a number of friends this the last year or two. It was meant constructively, since I was the only one most of them knew who actually flourished during the last crash. No one was interested though. Kind of like …

Another post in our ongoing quest to determine whether there is intrinsic value in great works of art, or whether one person’s turd is just as great as another’s Debussy, well, because someone decided it was… 5:29 – Kathia Buniatishvili – Claude Debussy: Clair de lune For anyone who is actually listening to these, here …

Ever more proof that man does not learn from history – and, in all his greed, pride and arrogance, in fact has little interest in it at all, at least in any real history… “The Lord giveth increase, but man devised credit.” “The general shape of the universal delusion may be indicated by three of …

I listened to a well-known ‘hip-hop’ person recently proclaim himself to be the greatest artist that ever lived. Since this was such an utterly ridiculous statement it stuck in my head. That he could even remotely compare his binary tempos and coarse use of language to the aesthetic sensibilities that existed in famous works of …

I am copying here a number of Spacebook postings from the last couple of weeks. Here is one from a couple days ago… I posed a thought experiment: “Does anyone know what they used to use typewriters for in Hollywood?” I didn’t receive many responses. I finally replied: Well, neither the question nor the answer …

and who’s paying for this…. Glacier Park in Montana is having to remove all signs stating that “the glaciers will all be gone by the year 2020.” Not only are the glaciers not gone, many have grown for multiple years in a row. My thoughts? Leave the signs there, and attach a quote by George …

I meet a lot of people who do not know the difference between a U.S. Senator and a U.S. Representative, or even that there are two separate branches of the Legislature. Many do not know as well that, at least theoretically, there are separate powers given to each branch of government. This does not mean …

Nearly four score and seven years ago this nation declared bankruptcy. I have tried the last few years to get friends and family to understand the implications of this. My efforts have been largely in vain. The concepts of the nature of money itself (and wealth creation) are foreign to most people. Under the present …

I paused to do some research recently on Gematria. It was mentioned in a video I had watched. I have a couple of books on Numerology that I bought years ago, and have still never got to them. Gematria is similar to numerology, if not the exact same thing. This, according to Wikipedia… Gematria is …

There are many ways to transfer to our fellow humans the things that occur in our minds, whether these are things we think, or things we feel… or, most likely, some combination of both. These occurrences may only appear to emanate from within ourselves and language may take many forms, but these discussions are beyond …

An ex-Muslim who refers to himself as The Apostate Prophet offers interesting insights into Islam. He notes in his description: Alif Lam Meem, no one knows what these letters mean. The Quran has numerous “openers”, letter combination that interpreters of the Quran argued about for over 1000 years. But why is there such an inconclusive …

“Well, time has a kind of strange role in modern physics. It’s not a completely resolved question. The nature of time still has real ambiguities about it. Scientifically we don’t understand why time has one direction, and one direction only. Yes, I can never go backwards, but in space I can go both directions. Always. …
