Chilled energy fixes me incomplete; writhing without sleep, I live an unfinished lie. Here my thoughts and holes. Fill them in, please. I can't finish on my own. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
| I'm not writing for fun. Not enough. I'm joining a slam poetry group and resigning to review at least one WDC work per week. Yeah. Work 1: I stared at the back of my hand, the Greatness of Man in bands around each finger. I scrunched, and spread, and balled them to a fist, but gaps eluded my insight. I looked up at the crowd, dull and afraid to talk, and said nothing. Pressured, Nothing came to mind. |
| I am going to be busy, again. Exciting. So, ever, exciting, right? I'm worried. I didn't come back to be near or next-in to the ones I love. I did what I did to be with them, maybe part of their lives. Now I'm going to be busy. They will be so close. I'm afraid I'll pass them, again and again; miss the chance...at...I don't know. Oh, my. What am I talking about? |
| Have we decided government ought to protect agencies from stupid decisions or protect the people from those who would profit from abuse? |
| --On The Beach-- I feel like Time with some is unsustainable; Can't end soon enough. But, this Time, This Time with you, feels... Like we could disappear into Neverland; Into easy days, and small fights, and lots of laughter Forever. --Gifted Solitude of Nearby Girls-- My instincts don't have words. Their message, though, is so heavy - So Beastly. They speak through action or want there of, and barely warn me of their intent. But, every one of their acts and pushes and pulls are inspiration, and today they inspired words. What are they telling me? What should I do? When can I let them out? |
| Seeking Alpha is porn to me. Unfortunately, I am a very poor historian. How wrong am I? What am I saying? The question is: "Should the government invest in public simulations of advanced systems growing more complicated faster than current regulatory infrastructure can effectively manage? Would the information generated be valuable? More generally, have humans been better served by effective predictive ability, and should we prioritize that at a federal level to force regulators to act on similar information coming from the most reviewed, most thoroughly evaluated, sources?" ------------ "So, why pick on the stock market?" The 'Market' functions as the most sophisticated valuation of assets in human history. If it crashes, we are currently incapable of going back to barter systems for global transactions mimicking, say, futures on millions of tons of wheat. There's no historical precedence to state that LACK of managing ability will prevent regulation in some form. Hence, there's no reason to believe that policies capable of derailing national economies won't be instated on false assumptions. In other words, simulation of the most active, ubiquitous, system of trade in world COULD prevent governments from knowingly introducing defunct, potentially destructive, legislation. Also, throughout our civil development, higher predictive analyses has only served to advance society. I would challenge anyone asking whether we should attempt this, if at any point in human history it was a 'bad' idea to better understand and more consistently provide reasonably accurate information about anything. We don't have an option but to use technology in trade if we want to grow. Not that there isn't another way, we simply haven't got a plan B. If we're already putting all our eggs in one basket, might as well check the weave. |
| Would you like the back? Should I show you why? Do I know? How about I get straight to it? I don't know how other men came to it (this testosterone driven overprotective nature), But, where I am (Who I am, Now), I can't think of another way: To Approach men who are after the girls I care for, To Apply pressure where it's really due. It's a duty; a role I embraced, was good at. Apparently, it needs some finesse, or I need to find a new Role to Play. So say the girls that matter. What am I saying? |

| I just joined Americans Elect. I believe it's a new beginning, something necessary. This is why. Society is ever evolving. For every incentive, there are competitive forces among our population vying for control, for access to the the resources behind the incentive. I believe historians have shown that, throughout the lifecycle of any nation, the very instincts we seek to control in our processes can and will find a way to overcome the lazy sanity people become accustomed to. Simply put, irrationality has evolved to challenge the American system of governance. I don't believe this is evil. I believe the evolution of powers, and the systems built to reign and utilize their capacity, are forever at odds within the human social existence; much like parasites chase our cures in the broader natural sphere. It's time to evolve governance if we want to move ahead. That's all. No big deal. The process is natural. Our forefathers, I think, would agree that as times change, as people grow, as society evolves, so must the mechanisms be refined and the framework expanded to encapsulate the sum knowledge of the human race if we are to take advantage of the collective capacity of a nation. What is this all about? |
| My professor posed a very interesting question: why do people get sick after stressful events? The exact lag time varies. Around four to five days after a stressful event/period, humans display symptoms of a common cold such as lethargy, stuffy nose, bouts of coughing, even fever. Why? The body doesn't have to be pressured by parasitic threat to display debilitating symptoms. I woke up with a theory on it. Heart fatigue. Any stress on the body carries an inherent risk to heart health (wears it down). While healthy doses of exercise and proper diet can both increase heart performance and decrease overall stress reaction, the combination of both exertion and mental stress hormones might trigger a 'rest phase' where the body allocates time to consolidate and recover damaged tissue. The phenomenon is required of athletes and body builders who find if they don't sleep or eat properly, muscle development plateaus and general health might decline. At some point, the body starts inducing appetite and sleep. The symptoms are just a mechanism to keep us inside, I think. So we heal from the supposed stressful event. Going back to exercise, healthy doses vary person to person, so the genetic framework for these rest periods must allow for these variants. Looking at extremely athletic people, it's been shown that training for a marathon can be very beneficial to a body's health; however, actually running the heart for the incredible duration of the race damages heart tissue that must be redeveloped. The athlete will need to sleep and eat above normal caloric intake to rebuild destroyed tissue, replace fat and other energy stores, and flush toxins developed during the race. If the body didn't induce some kind of relaxation response, a professional athlete might not allocate enough time to recovery instinctively and degrade maximal capacity by exceeding the body's capacity to reconstruct tissue. Then again, it also means that there's a lazy mechanism in all of us that likes to trigger every time your wife yells at you to clean the garage. I wonder if certain love/lust hormone actuation can override this. Like having sex for the first time with a new partner. Personally, I forget about eating, could care less about sleep, and feel fine as long as she's around. Then I crash. So maybe it's temporary. What am I saying? |
| I don't understand the discontinuity in people's beliefs, the lack of understanding of the very concepts some use to justify their decisions. The biggest one is the "Time/Work Break" Why do certain coalitions only allow 'simple' tools? The Amish are a good example. Where is their cut-off, though? Why is there a cut-off anyway? If you speak with them, you'll find the biggest flaw in their belief is their definition of a 'plain tool'. Some will stop at "something I made with my hands" or worse, "Something we can build as a community with what's given to us. Bad news Amish. There's little you couldn't build with just your own hands, or certainly as a group. So where is the break? It seems to me, that many people, without being conscious of it, are aversive to thinking about tasks that eclipse their lives. Essentially, I believe the Amish are falling to human's basic avoidance reactions to learning and complex thought. The majority of people fear what they don't understand, and so avoid it. The Amish, not bothering to educate themselves with the historical development of modern technologies, would then naturally fear and avoid products that required the combined efforts of generations of men, of thousands of hands, even though every part, every formula, every step in developing modern technologies were done by hand. You see it a lot in radical cultures where education and exposure lead to some degree of integration. It's likely why the Amish are dying out. Variance is natural, so it's natural that such a sect should exist. I think we might learn a lot about how people react instinctively to processes and projects they can't fathom (either because of lack of education, or because the topic is so new there's no economical way of modelling potential outcomes). Where does this aversion come from? The bias to underrate the greatest works of man. The computer chip took more money, minds, and hands than the pyramids. Why wouldn't we embrace the increased capacity due to it's development? As a whole we do embrace it. As natural variance applied to the populace, there would be those that don't. But I think it's naive to believe that they're acting entirely consciously. Could there be a mechanism that induces avoidance reactions when faced with an apparently insurmountable amount of information or complex outcomes? Understanding that might lead to greater insights into necessary qualities of leaders in the modern age. The last thing we need is an occidental Amish president this late in the game.
