I hope this blog post finds you and brings you joy, insight, and/or action steps for defeating the Diabolical Forces in the Universe (DFUs).
It has been quite a spell since I posted. I could make a case that I have been busily consuming curated information on the state of the Universe, but that would be hyperbolic. I have done some of that, and I have results to share below, but I have actually been mostly busy enjoying the analog life for the past 10 days or so. A lot of outdoor bike riding and a performance at the Vegan Sausage Fest, intentionally targeted at the demise of the DFUs.
Here's what my analysis of the state of the Universe has elucidated: 1. Avoid social and mainstream media (SMSM) as much as you possibly can. It's super toxic and highly addictive, and it reprograms your brain in a very destructive way. Think of your eyeballs as the interface through which the social media algorithms enter your brain and begin the wholesale reorganization of your thought processes, including undermining your critical thinking abilities. Insidious.
Now, many of my readers will scoff at this, believing their free will and critical thinking abilities to be unimpeachable. And that's OK...science really does not care. In fact, there is a very easy way to illustrate this using the scientific method.
NULL HYPOTHESIS: SMSM does not have any ability to reprogram my critical thinking abilities.
EXPERIMENT: Expose yourself to SMSM with a sociopolitical biases toward beliefs opposite to the ones you currently hold for one month.
OUTCOME: See if your beliefs have changed after this exposure compared with baseline.
QED.
It also would not hurt to vote with your dollars by buying local at mom and pop shops and avoiding big multinational retailers.
Alright, take care.
Fin.
