Thought of the Day – 4/12/22

Morning all. I’m back from a long weekend, and I’m feeling a little conspiratorial today (hence the tin foil hat). So, indulge me if you will. In China, they are dealing with a surge of COVID cases, according to CNBC, about 1200 symptomatic and 27,000 asymptomatic cases on Sunday. This is in response to the […]

The words from the San Francisco Gay Men’s chorus came out with the song “We’re coming for your children.” Below are the lyrics. You can find the video here. “You think we’re sinful, you fight against our right, you say we all lead lives you can’t respect. But you’re just frightened, you think that we’ll […]

Thought of the Day – 4/6/22

I’ve been thinking about mercy and grace recently. It reminds me of a passage from Orson Scott Card’s Speaker for the Dead. “A Great Rabbi stands, teaching in the marketplace. It happens that a husband finds proof that morning of his wife’s adultery, and a mob carries her to the marketplace to stone her to […]

Thought of the Day – 4/5/22

“In order to be able to think, you have to risk being offensive.” Jordan Peterson Within the world of social media, we are finding ourselves more and more in a world where we “offend” others. Those who seek power use this notion of offense to silence others. I remember the phrase “silence is violence” cropping […]

Thought of the Day – 4/4/2022

In all honesty, the idea of a social construct only model for our society isn’t a new idea. I was delving into the “two spirit” terminology, and came across the term Muxes. The idea is that in part of the Zapotec culture, there is a third gender know as a Muxe, or Muxes. These are […]

Thought of the Day – 4/1/22

I absolutely hate absolutes. I’m trying to stay positive about things, but the more I see things devolving into two tribal factions, the more I see absolutes filtering into our dialogue and the less room I find for valuable discussion and time taken for people of differing opinions to have substantive and profound conversations. My […]

Thought of the Day – 3/31/22

You don’t know what you got ’til it’s gone. I was raised in a land of plenty. We had easy access to resources, abundant food supplies, relatively cheap cost of living, and a dollar that would be recognized the world over. That’s over now. We are heading into a time of struggle and strife, of […]

Thought of the Day – 3/29/22

Let me show you three things that didn’t happen… At Best, the President of the United States must think we’re all idiots. At worst, he doesn’t remember that these three things have happened. Likely it is somewhere in between, which doesn’t sit well with me. But the White House has had to correct the leader […]

Thought of the Day – 3/28/22

Self-control and self-sufficiency are two of the worst things for those wishing to control the system and make everyone else dependent. I was listening to the Tim Pool IRL podcast as I do daily, and I understand better (albeit not perfectly) why the push for a great reset happens. People with means, control, and influence […]

Thought of the Day – 3/26/22

A special weekend edition of Thought of the Day. I had to play catch up at work, so I figured I’d put out a short post. I’m starting to stock some extra food. I feel like I’m turning into a prepper, and it’s a mixture of cringe, confusion, and relief. I can’t help but thinking […]
