coyote logics

moving towards the twilight
riding memory’s of dark and light
where did right go right
when did wrong go wrong
and what decides

realms of whats the difference
swirling whirlpools of spun
into a life lived

#Masshootings like those in Virginia and Colorado usually prompt some debates about their causes, and those debates often reflect simplistic and misleading assumptions about #causality. I wrote a #lbog post about that during the summer's spate of such #shootings in the US: https://doncurren.blogspot.com/2022/06/its-people-with-guns-that-kill-people.html

#MarshallMcLuhan predicted the resurgence of #icons in the 1960s. Here's my #blogpost looking at how that tendency has affected #politics and #politicians in recent years: https://doncurren.blogspot.com/2022/11/theyre-not-there-just-to-represent-you.html

“As the British economists John Kay and Mervyn King point out in their book Radical #Uncertainty (2020), efforts to #quantify #risk by attaching #probabilities to various unlikely future states of the world are mostly science fiction.” (Excellent piece from Psyche online magazine) https://psyche.co/ideas/why-efficiency-is-dangerous-and-slowing-down-makes-life-better

Our #politicians aren't just politicians in the #SocietyoftheSpectacle. Read my #blog piece about it entitled: "They're Not There Just to "#Represent" You Anymore; Welcome to the Age of #Iconic #Politics" https://doncurren.blogspot.com/2022/11/theyre-not-there-just-to-represent-you.html

Remember Kids:

You have no idea what people are going through.
Even if they try to tell you.

"everyone has their reasons"

Some will be ethical and moral,
Some will be irrational or crazy,
Most will make no sense to you, without empathy and understanding.
