Next Step - Think Past our Thought Past

 
Future Philosophy

Next Step - June 2007

There are a lot of attempts out there to define what humour is. The more you think about it the less you realise you know about this basic and important aspect of human life.

Here's a whacked out idea I had for what humour might be. It is the creation of consciousness

the evil

June 29th 2007 15:01
You know what shits me? when people are lied to and manipulated in such a way that they get pissed off at anyone who tells them that they are being lied to and manipulated.

I mean, granted its kind of a smart strategy and i can see how it has been successful, but shit, its pretty annoying

Stop falling and start flying

June 28th 2007 11:57
There is no difference between falling and flying. Once you realise this you are free. More importantly if you think others are falling, the ground is actually rising towards them. Your reality is about to slam into them.

In the adolescence of this modern age we had felt as though the ground had been swept up from beneath us. We suddenly realised we aren't standing on solid ground. This is a rather simplistic way of looking at modernity, but let's just call it by it's synecdoche "the search for meaning after the collapse of tradition". Those great old enlightenment figures had approached the world, grabbed the rug and told us the people were ready to see the truth. Those in power said no, they are not ready. But the enlightenment thinkers had a louder voice than had been heard before. Well perhaps there were louder voices, but they reached people through persistence, a slow trickle over time, religion perhaps was one particularly slow and steady flowing idea, and it was thick and strong, and it had slowly swept the world in larger and larger sweeps. But this was a loud voice in that it spread to large ammounts of people and quite quickly. It was a fancy new voice, very particular to the strange mix of low grade rumbles which had been heard recently. But suddenly enough people heard the question wouldn't you like to know the truth? wouldn't you like to know the very ground you stand on? And feeling the weight of the earth pushing them upward beneath them. They pushed down a bit with their legs and the ground did not seem to give, and so they wished to know everything about this 'truth' they had heard of and would not let anyone stop in their way. They were hungry, brutal if necessary, but they were going to get their way, they were to have the chance to be rational. Until finally it was clear that the word had gone out, the truth was to be begun to be unravelled in earnest. Soon, one of the largest collective efforts was put towards pulling out the strands of the carpet around us

Let this be a warning to tlcorbin-raginravensview and whoever else has been accidentally tricked by their mind into reading this: It's not going to make any more sense than the title.

When something comes into existence there is a bit of joy. This is obvious in our romantic notions of happiness in when a child is born, for example

ravings

June 23rd 2007 12:59
Well, I stopped writing on this thing. I didn't know if it meant anything. But more to the point i thought trying to think of things to write on it was stopping me from allowing myself to flow with my thoughts. But i feel like posting some shit so i figured, well i may as well post anything if i write it. so here's what i was thinking about tonight, only its not what i was thinking about, because most of those ideas were rounded ideas, but i was thinking about the next idea before i got the chance to write everything. Anyways for anyone who feels like reading along, here it is.

universities need to start publishing articles to wikipedia
