I hope I didn’t give anyone too much of “Great Expectations” last week, when I suggested for you to tune again this week for more enlightenment. Enlightenment is not something that happens at the drop of a hat … it crystallizes slowly. And just as trustworthy information is fertile ground for growth in enlightenment, so… Continue reading Indigena Revisited

Routing Around Irrational Media
I am working towards making the model of “Rational Media vs. Irrational Media” more simple, and easier to understand. [1] In order to do that, I feel it is imperative to come to an understanding of the extreme state of mesmerization a very large majority of populations worldwide are in. Masses of men and women… Continue reading Routing Around Irrational Media
Irrational Media’s Business Model is Propaganda
I am amazed that I apparently need to say this. I feel it ought to be as plain as saying “day-time is when it is not night-time”. I was chatting yesterday with a friend and I asked him what he thought of my approach — namely of the way I do not pay attention to… Continue reading Irrational Media’s Business Model is Propaganda
Wholely Holy Holey
I am writing this post sort of “off the cuff” while still traveling. I thought of the title while I was attending an event. But sometimes I will convince myself that a title is crystal clear only to discover a day or two later that is actually quite cryptic. Case in point. But no worry… Continue reading Wholely Holy Holey
Sixth Meditation on Social Media: Fair Use & Advertising
I’d like to bring this series full circle, right back to the beginning — I didn’t start the Fair, the Real Truth is a Trade Secret. Apparently, according to Desmond Morris (who passed away just a short while ago, RIP), humans have been using the technology of the handshake for many centuries or even millennia.… Continue reading Sixth Meditation on Social Media: Fair Use & Advertising
Fifth Meditation on Social Media: The Future of Social Media Technology
Yesterday, a friend asked me who I view as my role model. My immediate response (in the context of that discussion) was Wittgenstein. Now that I reflect on it with a little more distance, I would perhaps name Benjamin Franklin, who wrote in his autobiography that he aimed to imitate Jesus and Socrates. There are… Continue reading Fifth Meditation on Social Media: The Future of Social Media Technology
Fourth Meditation on Social Media: Natural Evolution is Better than any ASS Model Insofar as it Doesn’t Collapse
Nature is nice. Even when dinosaurs go extinct, it nonetheless makes humans who are able to write stories about them. There are long traditions of comparing theories of natural evolution with those of so-called fundamental laws of economics. A while back, for example, I wrote an entire post about ideas spread by Pareto (see “More… Continue reading Fourth Meditation on Social Media: Natural Evolution is Better than any ASS Model Insofar as it Doesn’t Collapse
Third Meditation on Social Media: Segregation , Segmentation & Differing
You may recall that last week we broached the topics “social exclusion” and “social inclusion”. This week I wish to broaden our scope to consider something I’ll call “social diffusion” — and also even broader than that: the entropy of the universe. Before you object and accuse me of having “lost the plot”, I want… Continue reading Third Meditation on Social Media: Segregation , Segmentation & Differing
Second Meditation on Social Media [GMTA:] Great Minds Think Alike :)
I dedicate this post to a woman named Laura, a quite obviously knowledgeable person I “discovered” a few weeks ago (I guess she is what is “also known as” a “virtual” acquaintance — occupying a space somewhere in between “cyberspace” and “in real life”). She disclosed to me that I sound sort of “bot-y” to… Continue reading Second Meditation on Social Media [GMTA:] Great Minds Think Alike 🙂
First Meditation on Social Media: Let’s Get Social
“Social Media” is a term for which there is no consensus regarding its definition. Last week, while writing “Push + Pull” [ https://fuckwith.news.blog/2026/04/22/push-pull ], I also (sort of haphazardly) discovered a blog / website at heidicohen.com which appears to be defunct now. That site includes a post in which many who seem to claim to… Continue reading First Meditation on Social Media: Let’s Get Social
