“Modern society is not Nature so much as it is an intellectual construct loosely based on Nature with the sharp edges rounded off for a price. Its inhabitants, though, are demonstrably resistant to domestication, their brains and instincts, though slowed through disuse, little different from their cave dwelling ancestors for whom choice of response to a threat was governed by flight, fight, or an end in sight. Applying the laws of man to limit those options can lead to nothing sustainable, and anyone who holds a position of such empowerment as to take the helm of such a ship of fools and believably steer her to the Promised Land had better keep that in the forefront of his lizard brain.” ~ Dark Sentiments Season 11 — Day 17: The New Normal
A Slippery Slope
By LFM
Though bent a jolly time or two,
My nose grew straighter than you’d think,
The perfect slope for looking down
Whenever I disdain the stink.
“Quaere verum,” speaks my heart,
Each stalking step to Nature’s rule.
However sore beset, Her Truths
Will guide the wise, and kill the fool.
Seek the truth, indeed. Like the headband.
Today was a day of in vino veritas and I am sure I fucked up somewhere, 😉
