It Is Really A Puzzle What Drives One To Take One’s Work So Devilishly Seriously. For Who? For Oneself?

It is really a puzzle what drives one to take one’s work so devilishly seriously. For who? For oneself? One soon departs this world, after all. For one’s contemporaries? For posterity? No. It remains a puzzle.

It's dreamy weather we're on, you waved your crooked wand Along an icy pond, with a frozen moon, a murder of silhouette,crows I saw And the tears on my face, and the skates on the pond They spell Alice

I disappear in your name, but you must wait for me Somewhere across the sea, there's a wreck of a ship Your hair is like meadow grass, on the tide, and the raindrops on my window And the ice in my drink, baby all I can think of is Alice

A Thought on Brain Neurology and Hallucinogenics

( Working Title: A drunk monkey tries to lazily teach other monkeys the essence of monkeyness through half explanation and zero sources sited )

We are our brains, we know this, but do we really grasp what that means?  We are lumps of fat, with, for easy example lumps of different fat in which not actual thoughts but memories reside.  We fire an electrical charge through pathways to said fat pockets, think of it like hallways to different doors.  How your mind actually works, it doesn’t tell you fire is hot, you see fire and subconsciously remember a time when you were burned and know fire is hot.

So firstly your brains working in a sort of weird unbenounced symbolism, but here’s the fun bit:

A.) the more the “hallways” are used the wider they get, electricity always seeks the path of least residence, thus if you are depressed, anxious, what have you that is partly why, those hallways are big, but most lead to one redirectory door, we’ll cover that...

B.) each time you visit a door, each time you remember, you dont remember the event, you actually remember REMEMBERING the event, so each time you open the door like a bad game of telephone the room is different, the couch is green now and not blue or whatever.

Now i wont get into the complexities of the brain and all the different areas, but for easy talk, we have a part of the brain that’s like our autopilot, our automatic train of thought, when you watch tv, ,when you take a bath, when you do anything not too hard, you’re half in auto pilot.  It used to be rumored, and is now confirmed by science that hallucinogens expand the mind, and they make you more creative, and why that is, is most these hallways lead to this autopilot door, which then directs you down familiar hallways.  Psilocybin Mushrooms in particular, shut down this autopilot section, and thus you have to discover, lets call them round about hallways

These hallways which cut out that autopilot central hall directory, electricity will attempt to find the door its searching for for whatever experience its looking to relearn from at that moment, however it will often find a closer door, an unlocked door, which will open and be a recollection of a different memory that teaches the same thing, fire hot, whatever.  The brain has a way of compensating like that in more ways than one. 

Mushrooms are now being used fairly regularly in western medicine to cure depression, because unlike contemporary anti depressants, which depress the parts of the brain that create the depression, or stimulate the parts that will help, etc, they dont control the regulation of the squeaky door so to say, they find a whole new door, time and time again, your brain all doors.  Xanax will inhibit the anxiety bit of your brain, but you’ll always need xanax, youll never be cured, and really lets be honest western medicine doesn’t want you cured, you wont buy the xanax then.

If you love knowledge, if you love your brain, do mushrooms, drop acid, just like all the anti pot propaganda, its all lies and science proves its all lies time and time again.  Don’t do heroin, don’t smoke meth, but definitely trip.  Thank you for your kind attention, and i hope we can taste colors together sometime soon.

Concerning Horoscopes and Tarot Cards

A short summation, Horoscopes: bullshit, Tarot: Psychologically useful, but not for the reasons you think.  Fun fact, men ONLY know horoscopes because women place some weird emphasis on it, fun fact if you let sign compatibility dictate who you date, you deserve to be alone and we dont need your genes in the genepool.

Tarot is interesting ( not mystic at all ) in that depending what pattern you draw, its usually like this is the problem, this is a thing(s) effecting the problem, heres the things affecting you making a decision on how to solve the obstacles of the problem yadda yadda yadda.  theres nothing mystic about it, it just forces you to focus on your problems and possible causes and solutions.

In summation, horoscopes, kill yourself, dont care if youre a virgo or whatever, thats Babylonian babble.  Tarot, try it sometime

wasted-life-musings - Musings of a Wasted Life
Musings of a Wasted Life

Musings and more of a despondant 30 year old man, former drug addict, current writer/alcoholic.  I'm unmarried, I have no children, and all my dreams are dead, I've wasted my life, and you can too!  Never say never.  Sometimes prolific, mostly offensive observations about people,  life, and the nature of the universe. I'm a communist, your god's a lie, hate mail welcome.
