Bits of stuff

Today I sold my friend. In about nine days, I will leave the United States of America. I think that means it's time.

Here is Mufasa before we left. I also think he will be very happy with his new home and am grateful to have been able to give him a good one.



Since I haven't posted in almost two months, I figured it was time to do another thought dump:

1. Bard <> Bird
2. Fermentation == firm intent over time
3. Old habits die hard if you let them.
4. Similar to mainstream scholars of the four logical arts (geometry, arithmetic, astrology, and harmonics), mainstream scholars of the three reasoning arts (grammar, literature, and prose) also too often argue over petty facts. In the latter schools, said facts are not measured.
5. In any case, change does require dissent.
6. The compressed remains of Earth's past (i.e., oil) are sacrificed for self-loathing and material possessions. In the meantime, burning them pollutes the air. Kind of sounds like a bad deal to me, actually.
7. The sky is a great time keeper.
8. Insects follow the light, too, but their brains aren't as big as humans'.
9. Insects know that plants are good sources of nutrition. As a result, they are also often good sources of nutrition.
10. Man makes really bright lights, but his lights don't usually enlighten.
11. Following the God light is first a matter of discerning it from the pollution.
12. Happiness is not a molecule, but for those of that school, serotonin is a much better candidate than dopamine.

13. The first one stopping you from anything is your self.
