"Wisdom cannot be conveyed:..."

 

why would the ants pile all the dirt from their hole on one side only?

mysteries abound...much about J. Epstein in the news this morning...as usual...the most interesting thing I have seen about this never ending drama is a YouTube presentation called "Jeffery Epstein: the autopsy no one is talking about" (19 min.) by Lauren the Mortician...too many "non standard" events here to ignore...this guy appears to have been murdered...the magic bedsheet will go down in history with the "magic bullet" in the j.f.k. killing...

I felt silly when I tried on the Nike trainer II shoes knowing I would not wear them and they might get me conked in the head...better stick with my $3.50 shoes and let others deal with ridiculously priced collectables...my income has increased by about $20 bucks a year but my expenses has increased by more!...damn!...

WWII era improvised cook stove left behind in the desert...one of the secrets to contentment is knowing how to improvise...

life is not all sand and rocks...there are flowers to be found also...be patient...

"philosophize this" latest presentation is kind of dense but worth the mental effort...episode #244 "after virtue"-alasdair Macintyre and the philosophy he promoted...also @LindsayNikole two latest presentations explained some things I had often puzzled about...such as Bryozoa colony's which I had often seen in fresh water but never understood and her very didactic pursuit of human origins "How we became humans"...good work!..."The tanner. Transforming raw hides into leather...the shocking process..." yep it is pretty shocking and makes me think maybe an alternative should be sought...that said I just bought a used leather belt...I am sometimes long on intention but short on practice...I started looking at "Itchy Boots" (Rebecca Noraly Schoenmaker) from the Netherlands who has been riding her highly rebuilt Yamaha around Asia for several years...she has a Chinese guy who rides a Triumph riding with her...good drone footage and she overcomes many challenges..."The bizarre world of mummy tattoos" by  "miniminuteman" AKA Milo (minderbender) Rossi is well researched...(modern tattoo culture is also pretty bizarre)...I like to look at the videos which have documented how long abandoned practices have been continued by a few special people..."The old man and the sawmill' landline abc Australia (4:24) is about an old codger who has built a sawmill he can operate by himself...a genius at work...I have worked in three "sawmills" but only one was to saw logs...it was called a "ground hog" sawmill and was put together by a fellow who was an enthusiast...there is something rewarding about watching a circular blade open up a log...and if you wan even more "primitive" ways of doing things "Before electricity: How saw blades were sharpened:hanging a massive grindstone by hand (1971-38min) Raw Machines...these people put out some great videos!...I came across the practice of "therianthropy" recently I can't say that I am favorably impressed..."Cymatics: science VS music' by Nigel Stanford (6min) is very interesting..."everything owes its existence solely and completely to sound..."...he says that there are three times as many neural connections from the ear to the brain as from the eye to the brain...thats something to think about...speaking of which I have been listening to a lot of Raymond Chandler detective stories read by Elliot Gould lately...great stuff...and David Wengrow: "the history of human civilization "@doomscroll (2 hours) is very interesting...he says that "reparations" must be considered for the people who have been historically and systematically "dis-possessed"...this is a bit of a joke as 70 thousand dead and more people every day are killed in Gaza...and the power brokers are lining up to divide the spoils...anyhow I agree that it would be worth looking into devising a way to make everyone have an equal chance at gaining economic independence...Wengrow says everyone should have the opportunity to ..."move away, disobey and create alternatives..." yeah! not bloody likely mate!...need some music..."the hot sardines" video of "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen" (means To me you are beautiful) this is a great music video...Amber Rachel and "the sweet potatoes" also do this tune well...I watched "Dark passages" with H. Bogart and L. Bacall (1941 106 min)...not the best but ok...

got to get packed and back into the desert...

"Wisdom cannot be conveyed. The wisdom a wise man tries to communicate always sounds like foolishness. True knowledge comes from experience, from union with the world." Herman Hesse

(there was a poster of a man dressed in a tuxedo and tails in a rubber tube floating in a swimming pool ...the caption was "Good judgment comes from experience and experience comes from poor judgment"

I found that if I search for this blog on Yandex browser it comes up like it used to on google...Yandex is Russian...I have been canceled in America?!
