Gore Vidal (1925-2012) Or is Important - Sex on TV is Porn Crossing the Rubicon alludes to, 'no going back'. Once you appear for the world to see in a sexual context, the act defines you in 'sotto voce'. Can you hear the whispers blowing in the wind? You can't undo the wind, entropy doesn't work that way, however deterministic complex systems may be.
Gore Vidal (1925-2012) The Landscape of Humanity is Changing Is this a sad reality of the States we know? Winners and losers exist in any game, the theory leans towards altruism with contingencies for signal errors. So why can't we all be winners, relatively speaking?
Gore Vidal (1925-2012) Schadenfreude Reversal Reversing the schadenfreude reversal takes us back to a celebration of failures. If we reverse the source of schadenfreude, conscious attempts to do the harder thing (ie. PFC) is self correcting; moving towards friendship as an outcome where your outcome is desirable if, and only if, two become one.
Gore Vidal (1925-2012) Schadenfreude Reversal Is this Schadenfreude reversal self serving? This one-sided tennis match is Vidal against himself, a reflection of the self that highlights the undesirable. Or is it so? Contempt and friend go together like oil and water.
Gore Vidal (1925-2012) Life Doesn't Skip a Generation I can appreciate the illogical nature of Gore Vidal's grandchild truth-claim. Mildly true, Sofia sits in a corner with the reality of the logical world bearing down on her wisdom like a metaphor of meaning that has no material significance. Biological non-sense! Genetically the irony runs deep.
Gore Vidal (1925-2012) Read the Classics - That's Why they are Classics, they Never Go Out of Style We all know dogma is destructive, the only outcome this produces is reconstruction, further extraction and domination of our ecosystem, a fragility we know is on the verge of collapse. For the love of literature and all that is Classic, think again!
Gore Vidal (1925-2012) Gore Vidal - The Dictator We are listening but we tend to keep on walking, immersed in our own realities of proximal and distal influences of potentiality. Submissive for some and counter-intuitive for most, the social fall out is far from tribal, identities shift while paradigms persist.
Gore Vidal (1925-2012) Neurophysiology and the Pathways to Potentiality Comparative analytics is part of what it means to be eusocial. Asociality emerges from individual impulses of insecurity and dichotomies of us-versus-them. Unavoidable perhaps, group dynamics dictate adaptive value as a species. Do you see the pathway to prosperity yet?
Gore Vidal (1925-2012) Speak Up What makes you write today? Wrong turns, bad moves or a desire to learn? planksip® is an organic platform for authors and academics. Welcome.
Gore Vidal (1925-2012) The Conservative Crucible I am guessing that Gore Vidal was a Conservative? Dogma aside the simplicity of friendship questions the necessity of such frivolous semantics. 'Beautiful', you say, we beg to differ when the outcome is shame filled humility. I can think of a better approach. Can you?
