Philosophy, life and painful things. Let's go on a journey…….


Existential

  • The snowflake cracks

    The snowflake cracks

    I once thought that I was alone in my difficulties, they are not many but they often debilitate me. Then I watched what is maybe the best TV show ever made IMHO, Afterlife, that show with Ricky Gervais. I have some issue it’s true, I’m not so good socially and I am a slave to… Continue reading

  • I nothing

    I nothing

    I feel the same way about her now that she’s no longer alive as I did when she lived, nothing. Why does that sound cruel, it’s the truth, I don’t give a hoot about her or her current status. The lady was a media glutton, a seeker of external validation. A self, built in a… Continue reading

  • Correct, yet stupidly

    Correct, yet stupidly

    If you arrive at the same conclusion, but you use reasoning to get there, as someone else who arrives there by prejudice or a ridiculous theory, then your conclusion is more valid, even though it has the same solidity. Now that is a strange thing to say, almost that one person can be more correct… Continue reading

  • Argument is not easy

    Argument is not easy

    I thought I’d do a short one for a change, just something to think on… “Talk to her coworkers, find out what they know”, this line is delivered by the police captain, and she’s talking to her seasoned detectives. Now we are talking about a TV drama here, and the thing that happens in a… Continue reading

  • A broken difference engine, some sex, and a teapot

    A broken difference engine, some sex, and a teapot

    The human mind is a broken difference engine, we have built a broken society as a result, and as usual I have a theory that might explain why. The usual approach for a philosophy piece would be to try to establish both the credential of the theorist, I have none, and the validity of the… Continue reading

  • Unfair things and life’s paradoxes

    Unfair things and life’s paradoxes

    One person with a stereo can ruin a peaceful evening in many nearby gardens, but one person at peace in the quiet of their garden cannot spoil the evening of anyone else. It is relatively easy to appeal to somebody when they are inconveniencing in other ways, and likely that people normally know that they… Continue reading

  • What to say today?

    What to say today?

    Often I have no idea what I am going to write, I just sit down and a rant falls out of my fingers. Let’s face it, that’s what my post are usually about, something that’s been weighing on my mind, something that irks me. Today though I watched an episode of Luther (UK Tv Drama,… Continue reading

  • Misogyny in the forces

    Misogyny in the forces

    Misogyny, as a result of genetic imbalance, is not misogyny. It is not possible that evolution, making one species and the genders it contains differently structured for differing advantages, could contain a will for the traits that worked out to be most useful to be lesser in one than the other since evolution has no… Continue reading

  • War Volunteerism

    War Volunteerism

    (written at the very start of the conflict, but not posted) Uk civilians on the radio phone-in shows talking about going to Ukraine to participate. I think they mean well for sure but without previous experience and training may be volunteering to become a casualty, a logistical burden, and possibly a threat to the very… Continue reading

  • I’m not me, I’m what I have decided to be…… or am I?

    I’m not me, I’m what I have decided to be…… or am I?

    After what started out as a quite jovial conversation this week I have decide that I am no longer a Caucasian man of average build, of European decent, and around the 6ft tall mark, I am instead a 7ft man named Leeroy, I am of African decent and I’m hung like a horse (you don’t… Continue reading
