Naw, I just don't think the subtleties are relevant when our people face extinction.

I grieve that neither you or Dys have any thing you love beyond yourselves in this world, thus you laugh in despair.

Hopefully you both have a spiritual life of some kind. Pantheism or worship of Nature (not Prakriti (Sk) or Cosmic Nature) is the usual recourse. It's something to be sure.

Gotta disagree with you about subtleties, especially in these proto-apocalyptic times. Those subtleties can go a long way toward evening your odds vs. the house.

I don't know whose head you are in, but it isn't mine. If you read my writing, rather than looking for points to argue, you would realize that I am such a spiritual being that I barely have one foot in the material world.

Perhaps, but that's bad too if people like you get into power and because of their spirituality, fail to put their own people first.

The Sufis are right: Jesus taught the way to the Other World. Mohammad taught both that and the way in this world as well.

Watch Silent Snow, Secret Snow: A boy leaves our common reality out of his love for snow.

Hey, by the way, when one of your comments gets deleted, do you get any kind of notification. Asking for... a friend...

No. Substack AI is a big brother who loves us.

Jars, you are just trying to hide the fact that you fervently pray every night that I will somehow magically ascend to power. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. I put on my oxygen mask first. The family. Then friends. Then my people. And if I still have energy and enthusiasm, the rest of the riff raff.

Is <i>Silent Snow, Secret Snow</i> more anime crap like <i>Graveyard of the Dragonflies</i>?

Dude, I've already left your common reality - and I don't even like snow.
