Family in a Fishbowl / Princess + 0 / reality show......

First topic message reminder :

Here goes Nothing........

The Princess is barely talking to me, and I seem to be holding her kid hostage.......

I guess they’d better send in the SWAT team.  

Just another typical day in the life of the family..... of any microcosmic family........

Who carez what you think?

Not I

You can’t even define or understand the basic termz here.

Shoo.

I can and I do.

Can't shoo me away that easily.

Dan, I'm offline for the rest of the night as I've gotz to go to the airport and stuff, so I tag you into the ring with smelly.

good luck

What you do is your truth.

Not what you think or say liar.

You do not have truth.

You become true.

Not holding me breath in your case

Bahahaha

Thinking is what I do best.

smelly wrote:What you do is your truth.

You don't say?

GET UP!

No, thinking is your truth, that is not truth liar

You are being before thinking.

But you can’t admit it, because your confused thoughtz control you.

Comedy is the remedy.

I laugh at you and your silly ideaz.

Ha

I wouldn't know what I am before thinking....but nice try.

GET UP

Exactly, you don’t know.

Maybe stick with that or not.

No knowing is needed to be.

I met my newest granddaughter, Louise....... eat your hearts out, everyone.

Congratz GrandPa!

Happy dayz.

Maybe she will soften you up

Congrats Dan!

Smelly, I know I am eternal

How is that for the truth?

Repeat after me...

I am a dumb muppet and smelly’s hoof puppet.

I got my good looks from my Mother and my smarts from my Father.

I got the best of both worlds.

Watch out, I'm keeping my I on U smelly!

Smile like you mean it!

We need just the right amount of dumb muppets in the BPW.

It’s nice to know your purpose isn’t it?

Bahahaha

Uh oh...Homer Goat!

Just for the record, both granddaughters are adoptive, and not thus about any fertility issue. Throop might acknowledge a numbers issue, but I don’t press it.  His spouse continues as a fourth grade teacher.  

I do go through the motion of fostering competition for the SoT spot, but it is also possible that I’m stuck with it, and you’re stuck with me, poor folks.  

As to the actuality of any visitation aspect, it’s all relative, for all of us, just as we all relate to the cosmic intelligence, and much less important than the latter.  

It might have something to do with popular consumption....... we’ll never know, for sure....... surely I don’t.  

It has everything to do with the Truth, and the re-emergence, thereof.  

Someone had to break the modern hegemony on reductive thinking...... someone with the implicit connivance of the PtB.  

And let me caution you about blaming the seamier side of history on any sort of personal depravity.  It’s not even clear if there is such a thing.  There might be sociopathology, but it might have to be renamed....... in the shadow of Monadnock.  Monadnock does cast a long shadow...... we’d better believe it.  The Truth re-emerges from that shadow, and only from that shadow.  In many quarters, the SoT will come on as the Antichrist.  

The PtB are not quite as dumb as they usually contrive to look, and donny may be a case in point.  His leash is a lot shorter than it appears.  

Does the same apply to the other tin horns?  It certainly applies to some of them.  

They’ll be running for cover, soon enough...... not all will make it that far.  


11:30........

Jrod and Krill might have served some function, but it had almost no direct bearing on the Truth.  


Why couldn’t the reductive hegemony just been allowed to collapse under its own weight?

Paradigms don’t work that way. There has to be a gestalt switch, along with a switcher...... even in the most anti personalist regimes. That irony seldom registers.



(cont........)

Don't worry Dan, there is no real competition for the SoT spot.

The SoT is the SoT.

Maybe the Princess can choose the best possible SoT?

She already threw you under the bus, so there is that....

Was that an endorsement or a denouncement?

I guess time will tell.

One thing I know for sure is I have more time left here than you.

Seniority does have its limitations.

I'd say your limitation is about 20 years.

Memento Mori.

After your time is up you can live vicariously through me.

You could be like obi-wan and whisper things in my ear like "use the force Ack".

That would be like a super power to have my own  Dan ghost companion.

It's almost like having my own SoT....

Wait a second.....

Are you....a ghost?

Spooky.

Ack,

If anyone could pull off a switcheroo, it would be the Princess.  

She probably figures that the devil she knows is better than the one she doesn’t.  

Nonetheless, she’s the timekeeper in this operation.  

Speaking of which, things have been awfully quiet, out at the Lake.

Things are rather quiet everywhere, except with the media residue.

Aprez vous, Alphonse....... where’s Alphonse? Alphonse is Aliyah.



(cont......)

Yes, keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

Yes, things are pretty quiet....

Even the Sun is having a solar minimum these days.

Ack,

Well, then, I must be an awfully big friend.

I'll have to think about that one....friend.


Speaking of friends.....



This song just started playing on my Spotify in the car (I'm sitting in stop and go traffic)

Coincidence!

SoT is your delusion GrandPa.

We all have our own.

smelly has been keeping me pretty busy today, delving into Wikipedia.  

I’ve been brushing up on non-being.  

I think I have a better understanding of how smelly’s non philosophy harmonizes with the best possible philosophy.... BPP...... you can’t have one without the other.  

Besides non being, we have kenosis and the Apophatic tradition.  

smelly practices all of these.  

However, I think the most important aspect of non-being arises in the context of relationalism...... and maybe, particularly, in the context of interpersonalism.  

A monist is, necessarily, a radical relationalist.  

Nothing exists unto itself.  As with existentialism, there are no essences.  

What about persons?  Persons are necessarily social.  

We are microcosms.  

What is the essence of the Monad?  It is love..... agape, ultimately.

Agape is cosmic kenosis, which may only be discussed Apophatically.

This is probably what sunyata is about.

Many of the schisms within Christianity hark back to the questions surrounding kenosis...... apophosis, etc....

Creation is the kenosis of God, we should all know.

Creation is the ultimate bootstrap of the Void.

Is the BPW eternal, then? Is it not objectively grounded in Eternity, as I sometimes seem to be suggesting?

Yes and no....... it is the ultimate subject, much more than object.

Reality is subjective...... all the way down.
