David Lynch With Some Horrible Advice

He says here, at 2 minutes 40 seconds, something about reviewing earlier work. That sends shivers down my spine.


This assumes that you actually have control over what part of your "work" is published. I have never had that. So for example, just browsing through this rubbish makes me cringe. I was under extreme stress at the time I wrote that. I was becoming aware of what my life had actually been, but which nobody had had the decency to tell me. And I was trying to see a way around all the angles I knew about. I had never intended to distribute it, and only sent a copy to my mother and to Laura Pausini, saying clearly to both that I wanted Laura to be the one who decided what to do with it. But electronic communications, and mothers, being what they are, it was made very clear to me within a few weeks that the text had got as far as Miami, FL. I suspect my mother passed it to my ex-wife who passed it to Sarah Walker. The text is complete crap. Drivel. But, knowing that it had evidently been sent all over the place, I felt obliged to acknowledge that I was the author. Otherwise, I have no interest in anything that is not part of Guerilla Logic.

And then I watch hours of shit like this. When you know what a pile of utter crap the Internet really is, then you know that all this talk of privacy and security and freedom of press is a huge pile of fucking meaningless garbage.


Now fuck off all of you! If you can't tell me what your stupid fucking problems are, and then you insist on making them my problems then you're worse than no use at all.

Stefan Molyneux on Resource Based Economy

Image
This is an interesting discussion. What most people don't realise is that capitalism as we practice it now wastes 99.9% of the human and material resources we currently use. Once you realise that, the problems raised by the idea of gift or resource-based economies become much more tractable. At  10 minutes 30 seconds  the discussion turns to the way we treat our family and friends differently. We don't charge our nearest and dearest. At this point Molyneux brings in Neo-Darwinian evolution to explain why there is this difference between the way we treat our kith and kin to the way we treat everybody else. I guess he will go on to argue that this is because we evolved to be like this, otherwise we would not have survived. He will presumably say that this is human nature and because it is genetically determined, nothing we can do short of a programme of eugenics and euthenasia will change that. Well, ... you know what my answer to that will be, ... something along the lines:

Nikola Tesla and the End of The World

At  1 minute 21 seconds  the building in the background, in Trafalgar Square , as she says "There is a story in our family that my great grandfather worked with Nikola Tesla, ..." is ... ... what? Hint: it is near to a statue of George Washington, a replica donated by the  Commonwealth of Virginia in 1921 .  See  War Crimes . Watch all four episodes of  Nikola Tesla and the End of The World  and then watch this: And on the meaning of the word sovereignty see: On the Mason-Dixon Line, the "boundary of slavery" in the American colonies, it might be insightful to compare the  Britannica  and  Wikipedia  entries and see where they differ. Then, especially if you're my daughter, see  On Feminist Genealogy . Then see this documentary about Mark Knopfler and what motivates his music. There's a nice bit at  17 minutes  about where songs come from, and what happens to their origin, and the role of Town Planners like my father, in this process, part

Sabine Hossenfelder - Lost in Math

Image
Sabine's book,  Lost in Math published in 2018. See  Rebecca Smethurst on the Crisis in Cosmology . Here's an interview on the subject of the book: At 16 minutes 27 seconds on aesthetics in a theory. I think you should worry first and foremost about whether or not it works, otherwise you are not doing empirical science. At 19 minutes 19 seconds on whether there would be better ways to advance physics other than by building the next generation of super high-energy particle collider. This is similar to military spending and it's really just an artefact of Keynesian monetary theory: that you can create 'wealth' by employing men to dig holes in the road and fill them up again. Of course you are not creating real wealth, you are destroying it and creating fake money. The upshot is that the better ways of spending much, much less money on encouraging sound scientific teaching and research are not of any interest, because they don't employ nearly so ma
