Welcome to my Steemit blog. This is my first post!
My brain is a bit scrambled right now, since I am preoccupied with my employment status (no job), and with other related goodies; but I will give it quick sketch here of what Yours Truly is about:
Everything is something, but only after the Void gives birth to it. Zero is the most important number in Existence, for it contains infinity within it. Existence exists. It exists eternally, from forever past to forever future. It exists causelessly, because Zero needs no cause in order to exist. It just simply IS. It is also the very foundational reason why things in particular (and their causes manifest). We are all individual pieces of infinity looking back at itself. We are the Universe as it looks at itself. We (Existence, and its pieces) are eternal. The freedom of the spirit is fundamental to its very existence. And since the soul-body dichotomy is a myth designed by elites to keep you enslaved -- to keep you on the hamster wheel making them perpetually rich -- body autonomy is therefore a fundamental right of all sapient life forms. There must be no laws restricting access to drugs, religions -- or the rejection thereof, abortion, vitamins, choices of all other kinds, or any other intellectual or imaginative content which may be freely chosen by any individual whatsoever. Each individual person is sovereign. Our only limitation is that we must protect our World which gave us life, and the Public Commons, because that is the meta-context upon which all our lives and livelihoods depend.
You have stumbled onto my page. So, welcome.
Get a cup of coffee, if you like and pull up a chair.. But I won't be long. I can't be long.. It's too hard to FOCUS right now.
I am a United States citizen. My Federal Government has failed in its responsibility as our country's fiscal sovereign to promote the General Welfare. We don't have healthcare. Our people are dying prematurely. The American poor is a growing underclass with access to fewer and fewer resources and life options; yet we are told constantly that we must bear "personal responsibility" for our condition by the disingenuous tricksters in our midst, as well as by the naive, many of whom are amongst us -- all of whom ignore or deny the structural, or systemic causes of poverty and personal powerlessness. The "middle class" -- as we once knew it in better days -- is gone. Civil liberties are in decline. America is going down. Then there is the environmental havoc being wreaked upon our World by our continuing use of fossil fuels and nuclear fission...
This situation in its entirety must be corrected -- and soon -- or it will be over for us as individual people, and it may well be curtains for all life on our beautiful Planet. Just as individual persons are not indestructible, Sol III is NOT indestructible. We do not have access to Omicron Seti III yet. So it is crucial that you pay me heed:
Go get a cup of coffee. Really.. Get those synapses firing! ..Anyway..
Climate Change is upon us. Got that? This is a fact supported by a consensus of 97% of all published climate scientists. So it is not open for debate. Somewhat deceptively, and according to a very linear analysis making the rounds now, we have five thousand years before sea levels rise by the two-hundred twenty (220) feet, that is expected when all of the Earth's ice melts. We cannot assume, however, that these events will unfold in a linear fashion. Nothing in nature is linear. If you have any layperson's experience with it, you know this to be true. This is why the really important mathematics is integral Calculus -- the math that examines and measures change, as opposed to discrete quantities. We therefore do not know if we even have twenty years before catastrophic ice melt begins. But we DO know in principle what happens as an atmosphere acquires greater and ever greater concentrations of greenhouse gases. Even if "how much time we have" is still quantitatively an open question, why take the chance if we do not have to? Our fiscally sovereign currency issuers (most national governments -- and certainly those of the United States, the UK, Australia...) CAN increase their "budget deficits" -- and with careful attention to how those newly issued funds are allocated -- spend our way to both prosperity for all, and toward a global green energy-based World Economy. If just those three polities -- The US, the UK, and Australia -- that I named will convert wholesale and entirely to green energy, the rest of the world will follow suit. Because it will be our economies that have removed the "limits to growth" that have been caused by our use of unsustainable and outdated tech. At the very least, we will have greatly raised those limits. We simply don't have to be taking the kinds of risks we are taking now with personal and global disaster. So why do it? Let's come together and DEMAND BETTER from our politicians!
I thank you for your attention, which is undoubtedly better than mine at this point. Please stay tuned for more...
