Gravity's Space-Time Edge (poem)

 

Cast off from what was known
vortex questions of galactic charm
circles in space-time echoes own
lines of being to the center of storms

Looking down from a singularity too far away
matters that ever last surpass to rise
like flowers of forever that live a few days
and yet must die in December’s darkened sky

The Earth in the beginning
from the mind it was conceived
a place, an island dreaming
weary travelers didst time to leave.

Would a Harris Win Enable a Chaotic Crash of the Dollar?

  A Trump win might generate fairly predictable consequences ( good economy, compiling public debt, peace with Russia etc). A Harris win alternatively could start a series of chaotic challenges to American leadership competence with consequences for the poor as well as average Americans.

The Harris commitment to pursue conflict with Russia over Ukraine and her lack of historical understanding of the nation's position in the currents of world political evolution might engender the crash of the dollar while global warming accelerates. Secure borders and a commitment to excellence and supporting the development of every American citizen to be the best they can be is necessary if the country is to have much control of it's own political destiny in one nation under God, indivisible with liberty and justice for all.

Kamala Harris major selling point is that she is female. She has of course signed off on the Democrat's party platform, yet I am not aware of a single new idea she has. Low expectations need to be adjusted downward.

Wittgenstein, Cohen, Quine, Kripke, Language, Wars etc.

 Wittgenstein's Blue and Brown books presented a simple anthropology of language development. It was a somewhat more pragmatic approach than Heidegger's investigation of language and concept meanings with depth in etymology. His thought about language was a part of the development of linguistic or analytic philosophy yet very early. Realism and nominalism questions about words were better understood toward the later half of the 20th century Applying logic to language and meaning as elements of epistemology developed later with people like Cohen, Strawson, Quine and Kripke. 

A thought about wars of the distant future... Weapons like scalpels will be applied to scale of conflict. To destroy a planet or galaxy different tools would be used than to excise opposition forces amid some friendly forces. If people remain stupid enough to have wars they will probably annihilate themselves anyway.

Apparently scientists already bred an ape with a human and aborted the foetus, otherwise there would have been a better alternative to Joe Biden. Seriously though, 16 million years ago a major eruption occurred- with vast left-wing lava extrusion (The Columbia River Basalt Province) from the Yellowstone hotspot and before that the Deccan Traps extrusion 66 million y.b.p. Humans have been around from about 100,000-200,000 years ago and no they wouldn't naturally evolve to a super-being in just 100,000 more years. Many people including James Lovelock and the late Jacques Cousteau have said that humanity will probably destroy the livability of the Earth within 200 years. It does seem likely.

Unicorns in the Old Testament. Apparently Re'em was a unicorn as well as the rhino mentioned earlier ( "the scientific name for the Indian Rhino is 'Rhinoceros Unicornis") It had to do with horns. Stipes was the upright stick Jesus was crucified on and the unicorn was a symbol of Christ. I will quote a relevant piece on unicorns from a google search... "The Hebrew word re'em is mentioned nine times in the Bible and is often translated as "unicorn" in English translations. However, some modern translations use the term "wild ox" (aurochs) to describe the re'em, which is the correct meaning". I tend toward being a KJV only reader myself so far as Bibles go, because I like the language, although the Good News version is sometimes interesting too.

Overlapping Tomorrows (a poem)

 

Soft breezes everywhere frostbite laps
oceans of dreams returning to slosh
silently no more than wind and waves
froth reaching jagged edged hours
washing time away

In the dark night sky
she is like thought unsurpassed
water and will
echoes and ideas

Tomorrow's plains of grass
are shelves of land pushed to crenelations
-mountains arisen to heights
where cold ascends toward truth

Nothingess became a symphony
Gorecki’s sorrowful songs
when lives turn to dust
remembered by those still
living in this place

A view of the past from promontory point
starlights for someone new
looking in the distance could be
conversion to the spiritual
one might wish for.

The Nature of it All (poem)

 

The sky is large
and the world's billion echoes
are contrail cloud cover
silently disappearing in daybreak
because orange light fullness
faded into blue

Molecules and minerals
drawn together in gravity
comprise a solid base where life abounds
where God set the players
consciously realizing
the nature of it all.

The Red or the Blue Pill; Nov 5 2024

 On election day voters will choose the red or the blue pill. One provides illusion with foreign wars and deaths lingering externalities to comfortable inside the  looking glass soma of woke social reality while the other is a key to unlock the Matrix.

The red or the blue pill, the choice is yours.



Reflections on Olber's Paradox

 

Olber’s Paradox is interesting to consider. The Universe probably isn’t static nor “filled” with stars since they are so far away. Visible light requires sentient eyes to view it and regard it as visible anyway. Before eyes existed the Universe might have been in effect without light. One knows at any rate that light is an excitation or phenomena in an electromagnetic field and photons travelling in space are affected by the spatial curvature of the Universe because of gravity, or perhaps spatial curvature itself is a reciprocal of gravity as it were and that varied over the course of the expansion of the universe. Photons are nearly mass-less particles and their timeless journey can end or transition as they encounter different fields and mass or energy in the Universe.

“Olbers’ paradox is a cosmological paradox that asks why the night sky is dark if the universe is infinite and contains an infinite number of stars

I suppose that it is possible that photons could encounter a kind of anti-virtual particle phenomena wherein photons disappear from the Universe into whatever field virtual particles emerge fro as the Universe flexes it’s quantum soup of some kind of tomato bisque. I don’t know why for that matter that a virtual energy field should be evenly distributed through the Universe and not for-itself associated in some way with a ratio to real fields and mass of the Universe. Perhaps they model the distribution of gravitational fields of the Universe, although nothing can travel faster than light that is subluminal. Of course mass-less 2 dimensional particles travel at light speed. Quantum entanglement could occur between photons and virtual energy. I have thought the concepts of timeless, mass-less particles and a Universe of time and space something of a paradox itself.

Harris Against Freedom of Choice for States in Preference of Federal Dictatorship

VP Harris primary support is from women that want the federal government to force abortion on all of the states  Women for Harris don’t want states to have the freedom to choose what they want for-themselves.

In some instances like slavery federal rules, so long as they are morally sound positions, should prevail. On most other moral issues states and the citizens thereof ought to decide for themselves how they want to live and regulate themselves.

Select environmental concerns are compelling and require federal oversight when people lack knowledge of emergent issues of a complex nature. The nation however can survive and thrive if Californians and Bostonians have abortions and those from Idaho and Texas don’t. Federal law for abortion is not critical; a dictatorship of federal Democrats is not even desirable.

Biden Harris Management to Direct World toward Nuclear War is Exciting

 Nothing like the world advancing toward nuclear war to get the heart pumping. Apparently the generations changing have forgotten the down side of atomic bombs and see only the good. maybe nuclear war is as unreal as the U.S. public debt to Democrats and one can keep escalating toward it without any problems.

Some believe that the Zelensky claim that he can go nuclear with his own bombs to attack Russia is another bad development. Actually the only viable solution to the Ukraine conflict is to settle it along lines of each side gets 50% of the nation- the Solomon option as it were. The baby won’t be relinquished by the real mother though so cutting it in half is the only way the Ukraine can be saved.


Russia will never quit fighting to recover its land and the U.S. choice to be unable to compromise western claims so far as to recognize the legitimacy of the Russia point of view will continue to develop counter-productive global economic as well as military developments that a rational political party would seek to avoid. Perhaps good sense is an externality to the legalism of greed relying on bogus historical claims to ownership for Ukraine as an historical independent nation equal to that of England, France or Germany.

One can better understand why the Lord Jesus Christ was crucified by humans through the lens of the Ukraine war and the way original sin rules political thought of select leaders in D.C. and Western Europe

If Leadership is Adaptive, Creative and Intelligent the American Dream Machine Works

 

 Americans in the rather crowded demographics of the nation with 320 million people needs creative and adaptive leadership in the office of the President. The President of the United States cannot be just an apparatchik functionary operating a machine with a known and finite number of parts as it were. Democrat lawyer Presidents tend to act as if  was that simple.

Lawyers work with an existing legal framework made in the past. The law does adapt to challenges of course yet the legal. Democrat lawyer president tend to be less creative than some of those of the past such as F.D.R. Since Bill Clinton they have drifted toward being non-creative war mongers (maybe I should have included L.B.J.) and redistributionist, slopping the poor while enriching themselves and cutting taxes on the middle class. Democrat Presidents rely on deficit spending as an essential part of ordinary economic policy.

The problem of applying finite, known machine like paradigms to complex, vague and amorphous issues such as history, cosmology and religion is interesting. The Democrat party support for war with Russia over Ukraine is a case in point. Chop logic and incompetent historical data reasoning bring the world toward its first unlimited atomic and nuclear conflict.

The historian Arnold Toynbee showed that one of the main reasons for the failure of a civilization is it’s inability to change and adapt its economy to new paradigms especially with  external challenges such as environmental decay compel a right response to the challenge. Redistributing some wealth with public debt will not solve such challenges.

If pie-in-the-galaxy solutions for near light speed travel could be found easily-perhaps  mapping the gravitational fields of the Milky Way and calculating travel course for engines that can interact with gravity field currents, there would be less need for creative Presidential leadership. As it is a legalistic approach based with existing laws made in the past won’t provide any kind of creative change.

Most citizens prefer stable economic parameters, yet the economy is implicitly unstable these days because of quick technological challenges and the international scale of it. Kamala Harris may have an isolationist concept of the U.S. economy in that she might think it is a stand alone phenomenon and cutting off Russia and relying on China won’t affect it at all, yet obviously that is wrong.

Democrats support illegal immigration to have a ready source of cheap labor. The nation though is not experiencing an influx of intellectuals from abroad; it is receiving millions of under-educated new consumers that want plain physical jobs and experience life with naivety concerning national and global environmental resources. Because Democrats support illegal migration they are anti-environmental conservation necessarily as a contrapositive fact.

Intellectuals can’t really work here illegally. They need to be on the clock legally.

A society needs to keep that balance for health rather than absorbing millions of uneducated people or losing’s it’s intellectuals abroad.

For Ecological Reasons New Homes Should Be Easy to Assemble and Disassemble

 

New home construction should have fasteners and other materials in design that make them easy to reassemble someplace else. That would prevent waste and permit more flexibility in future community environmental plans. It woul also let homes easily be sold and relocated.


Substantial tax breaks should be given to new home builders with high energy production, insulation and dismantle and reassembly efficiency ratings.

Concrete foundations for example might be pre cast or poured in short forms that could be fastened together and removed later for re-use; ie rectangle pieces a few feet in length a front loader could install.

Roofs could be entirely solar panels that could be upgraded after tech progress.

Laser Beams for Power Streams Between Stars

 Because there is no foreseeable technology to travel faster than light between star systems it is worth considering the fastest way to power space modules to a substantial portion of the speed of light. Scientists have pointed out that using enough energy to power a spacecraft if the fuel was aboard the vessel would be too massive, the criterion moves to establishing a stream of energy outside the craft it’s ‘engine’ can draw upon to approach equalization of its speed to that of the laser beam, reaching perhaps 3/4s of the speed of light.

Coherent light- laser light travels at light speed. A very large laser beamed aimed at a target star light Proxima Centauri- 4.6 light years away, would need to be very strong and powered by the sun or a fusion reactor in space near the edge of the solar system. There would need to be a way to tap into the laser beam and convert the photons into electrons and possible an electro magnetic field some configuration that would move the ship forward. Perhaps an on board energy converter could tap into the beam periodically to continue to advance its rate of acceleration closer to the speed of light of the laser beam. The technology would in effect let a spacecraft catch a ride on the laser beam’s energy.

When the first star connection was established, star a to b, then a connection could be made from star b to c. after delivering components to build more laser star links to star b for making a connection to star c. The travel time using the fastest present space engine tech is 88,000 years to Proxima Centauri where with a laser beam to provide power for energy to let a reciprocal electrons power tie-into to the beam travel at light speed the time would be reduced to about eight years.

In order for a stable platform from which to send a laser light star link it might be necessary to locate some Lagrange Point equivalents for the solar system rather than the Earth. On the other hand it could be useful to construct a network of solar system encompassing laser beam platforms on the out edge of the solar system forming a rough sphere around it- balanced for gravitational elements of course, and from those platform each sending a laser beam to some point in space where the beams are gathered with mirrors and combined into a solitary powerful beam initially aimed at Proxima Centauri for a decade when a ship is using the tech for travel.

Some future generation may discover the way to innovate the first few laser star links, if the present war-mongering one being led into nuclear war chicken with Russia doesn’t incinerate future generations by actualizing M.A.D. policy.

It might be feasible to map gravitational currents/fields of this galaxy and use them to sail between select areas by letting the gravitational pull draw a spaceship forward toward the speed of light. Obviously micro-gravity sailing technologies might improve when the causality of gravity is better understood. Still, I like the possibility and recognize that boosting start up acceleration might be desirable with a different technology.

The Harris Meme; "What can be, unburdened by what has been"

Perhaps the phrase Kamala Harris uses (‘What can be, unburdened by what has been’) isn’t a quote from Karl Marx. It does require a little examination though. For in an historical context the past and present are a continuum. what has existed in the past often exists in the present; such as national boundaries in some cases. It might be useful if warring with Russia over Ukraine to ignore the burden of history of Russian ownership of Ukraine for centuries if one is a Democrat obviously. The past is not so easy to dismiss.

Everything that exist in social reality-physical infrastructure for example, immediately becomes part of the past as the present moves on. Yet buildings built yesterday or last century remain part of the present-even with the persistence of memory in a few after they are demolished. Plans implemented in the past were designed with the future in mind sometimes requiring decades to mature.

 And there is the matter of special and general relativity and parameters for a finite speed of light- 186,282 miles per second. Given the expansion of space-time and the vast distance scales of the Universe photons flying about and reaching Earth nearly entirely originated from the past to impact human senses as the present; that is the past is what arrives in to be the present appearance of starlight- and even sunshine.

I tend to regard the Universe as being simultaneously monistic and pluralistic. It originated and in a deep sense continues to be made of one phenomenal thing- even if that is energy in motion and of an inexplicable ultimate form. What was, is, substantially speaking, yet the forms have changed. If everything is spirit and an emanation that upsurges into being within protocols of form and change that apparent pluralism exists on the surface of the monism that is the foundation of phenomenality.

Why should those present be burdened by public debt or bad decisions of the past such as entering into war via the Zelinsky government over Ukraine with Russia? It’s convenient for politicians to ignore the past-sometimes even their own political record. The past is not a burden. Public debt of 33 trillion dollars from bad political choices by party leaders is a’burden’, as are the failure to conserve the ecosphere’s nine critical areas for human livability on Earth with six already surpassed and a seventh edging closer. One cannot simply declare oneself to be unburdened by the past when it exists in the resent.

What is possible is to maximize efficient use of present resources and opportunities; politicians rarely accomplish that.

Does Harris or Trump Know What the Nine Planetary Boundaries for Eco-health Are?

 It is worth mentioning that neither presidential candidate of Republicans and Democrats mentions the nine planetary boundaries for a healthy Earth and how six have been passed already. Apparently a seventh- ocean acidification- is also approaching.

https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/earth-is-on-the-brink-of-breaching-a-seventh-of-nine-planetary-boundaries-that-support-life-180985144/

Degrading the environment to such an extreme extent requires sound ecological economic competence to change. It is my hope that if Mr. Trump wins the 2024 election and gets the wars to stop across the pond a Democrat challenger in 2030 might appear with a competent plan to at least try to push back the degradation with a completely different approach to economics and environment since they are integrated in a destructive way presently. For the Harris campaign to operate with a what me worry blissful disregard for the status of the ecosphere is disheartening. Humans should do better than that.

Maybe it will require a Republican to actually get anything done. it would be good to fill the drying up Great Salt Lake with desalinated sea water too. Such hopeless day dreaming is all that may develop concerning either prospect.

Will AI Replace Nobel Prize Committee Next Year?

 Maybe it's just a matter of time before Artificial Intelligence monitoring world scientific developments replaces humans on the Nobel Committee to select prize-worthy achievements. Maybe they would be more accurate. Perhaps the prize for literature would go to someone writing a graphic novel (a cartoon book) like Magnus Robot Fighter.

One might want Magnus Carlsen to defeat all those 4000 rated chess engines and for a math genius to out-calculate quantum super-computers yet each aren't too likely.

Last good chance for President Biden to Start World War Three is October 12th

 

On October 11th and 12th N.A.T.O. defense secretaries and ministers will meet to discuss the Ukraine conflict and if they should let Ukraine’s military use N.A.T.O. weapons to attack deep into Russia. I haven’t much confidence in Joe Biden’s judgment on the Ukraine war; it is possible that he will finally green light Zelinsky’s wish to attack old Russia itself and that would stimulate a rapid escalation beyond the borders of Ukraine perhaps to include targets in western Europe and the United States and or tactical nukes in Ukraine. That might be the October surprise that candidates sometimes use to get themselves or their apprentice reelected or elected as the case may be.

The war has been a very bad event that simply gets worse the farther on it goes. There is no good ending for the atrocity. The best circumstance would be for Donald Trump to be re-elected and sign off on the Putin peace settlement to divide the Ukraine 50-50 so far as real estate value goes in dollars. Ukraine would actually keep about 80% of the land area in that deal. Mr. Trump should have some influence on Zelinsky and refuse to provide more weapons from the United States.

Developing better, cheaper ways to kill people will be a bad example for the future of mankind. A divided world just won’t be one with a recovering ecosphere that definitely needs work. I would guess global sea level will rise faster than expected- maybe 20 feet before the end of the century, and that will be a disaster itself. Peace with Russia is necessary, and on good terms, if any real intention to work on the ecospheric decline is to occur globally.

Ukrainians fielded a new incendiary drone that drops a molter, liquid like thermite stream on Russian positions in September. Russians fielded their own a week later. Thermite is a kind of aluminum and iron oxide mixture that burns around 4000 degrees. Since the tech is easy that weapon is likely to proliferate in future conflicts. It is the kinder gentler way of making crispy critters instead of just broadcast napalm all over everyone in a sloppy way. I doubt that Hamas would be so thoughtful about keeping thermite off of civilians.

It must make President Biden’s day to see an increase in the lethality of the conflict. I have wondered if Zelinsky has some kind of godfather horse’s head in the bed hold over the President, or blackmail photos or some other device to compel Joe Biden to just send more and more weapons despite the somewhat irrational, lemming like surge toward the Armageddon cliff.

Questions about Kamala Harris as a Secure, Comfortable Establishment Insider

 The nation faces quite a choice this election between the affirmative action legacy candidate seeking promotion to her level of incompetence potentially and Donald Trump, the last capitalist in a sense from the nation before the complete swamp of dopiness flooded it. I believe one question about Kamala Harris that is relevant is would she take a natural female receptive role if President and make the U.S.A. a bimbo of Europe and its rise with the EU and NATO expansion into potentially taking the leading role in the trans-Atlantic relationship.

Germany has less than a half trillion dollars of public debt. If one may use the term lem; in this case not used as a synonym for "nigger" as public radio use the depricative (I should clarify that because of the controversial nature of lem and nigger as hate speech. One might say 'don't hire that lem' instead of using the n word which is politically incorrect) then Germany's economy isn't a lem (meaning lemon) while that of the U.S.A. is nearing that stature with 33 trillion dollars of public debt. The U.S.A. need be somewhat more independent and self reliant and not just leave the public sector as a lem holding the bag on the massive debt that generate result with real austerity some day.

In his farewell address George Washington expressed concern about establishing permanent foreign alliances that would impact the sovereignty and security of the United States. N.A.T.O. is a prime example of the problem of a foreign alliance that has outlived its founding reason for being and seems to insist on a hostile relationship with Russia in order to have a reason to exist. The Ukraine issue should have been settled by diving the country in half and just moved on. Instead since the end of the Cold War 1.0 N.A.T.O. has increased in size and became an existential threat to invade Russia long before Russia took the Crimea back as it has owned it for hundreds of years- even before the Soviet Union captured Russian government for nearly 70 years.

One wonders is Democrats have forgotten world history and the violence and conflicts that occurred in Europe over the millennia. The U.S. should have been happy to let the original N.A.T.O. just continue as a kind of appendix that isn't used much, not a threat yet of actual deterrence value. Expanding it created a monster. It is a potential future rival to American military power sometime when the U.S.A. doesn't agree on some critical policy concern. It is also part of the Orwellian expansion into some kind of 1984 three global blocks at perennial enmity or war sort of circumstance...and such an egregious bit of idiocy without good sense or political aesthetic value.

Democrats were happy t bring about a conflict rather than rationally settling in without violence. They could have used the mostly non-violent transition from the Soviet Union to Russia in an albeit imperfect allocation of boundaries as an example. Instead the methodically increased the numbers of N.A.T.O. and the E.U and seemed to further try to marginalize Russia. Obviously the decision of the Democrat Party and EU members to prosecute Russia as an adversary building up military stores in the Ukraine to defend its western affiliation was a result of the founding of Ukraine at the end of the Cold War 1.0 as an independent state and unavoidable since Democrat Party leaders had no intention in any way to relinquish any part of Ukraine to Russia. Kamala Harris has expressed her full intent to continue the war until it is free of Russians; in other words until  the last Ukrainian is dead on the battlefield.


Is there really a substantial different orientation for American women concerning jobs, natural security and the deaths of foreigners in wars that could be prevented with U.S. leadership to settlement that bring people like Kamala Harris to feel entitled to have everything their own way? Do they take their position in life for granted- as if it were usual to have vast incomes without dirtying their hands? Should they when buying a ‘starter home’ with their $120,000 annual income and spouse’s $40,00 feel that is normal and usual- that they have some right to a higher standard of living than that of most of the world’s working men? Do they just want more of the same inertia of prosperity and ecological inefficiency moving forward without the slightest concern for the decline of natural resources ad the ecosphere? U.S. politicians that have their relatives getting government jobs are hardly inspirational to those that haven’t got relatives in high elected positions.

Do American women and politicians of the left believe that the crass consumerism, abortions, atheism and fossil fuel engines while the country has 33 trillion dollars of public debt is the best way to shape an economy? Economists may say that illegal migration doesn’t hurt the gross national product yet that is somewhat meaningless to the people without good income because wages were undermined by surplus labor. The G,N,P. Can be great and yet it can also mostly go to the 1% and the 10%. Of course their economists would say everything is wonderful.

Some wonder if flooding the nation with illegal migrants while expanding the conventional economy without ecological economic reform and while waging a economic and limited military global battle with Russia, China and the BRIC nations while concentrating wealth paying for government programs with public debt is likely to be sustainable. Others wonder if Kamala Harris has a clue.

Wait 'Till Next Year (Peace now Armageddon Later) - poem

 

Should the end of the human voyage occur
with two opportunities for flowering wars
to spill over into such conflagrations
as are ignored as externalities
with major weapons suppliers
providing jobs in blue states too
that Armageddon described of yore
when gore was king and future spec zinged
Iran had missiles primed
like clever importunate rhymes
it should wait at least till next year
so many aren’t ready
and need time, more

Not a just war
Armageddon at a discount price
with spangles and inaugurations would sure look nice
as if humanity had nothing else to do
life ends in death and that is true
for the comfortable
and practical the end may seem new

Iran looking down on those low nations
has hypersonic missiles for thistling cues
from friends de guerre pressured too
to fund Hamas, Hezbollah and Yemen rebels
to overcome Sunni royals and Jewish lives well
sparking that 12th man rising for dooms-day hell
a theory roughly shared at pre-tribulation light speed squared

NATO is a Lavender Hill mob
automatically opening wars
with encrypted key fobs
with many worlds theories versus practical clods
jobs for everyone
solitary life lobs
bureaucrat rackets smashing forehands sover nets
sweating blood and crown of thorns treks
fear is  practical for left- leaning wrecks
missiles glisten as saviors for thee doth they sing
wait till next year, maybe then bang  a gong.
