Hot or cold, expansive or contractive, full or empty.

Take motor car that doesn't start. Check the fuel tank. It's empty? Fill it up, problem solved.

But is it?

Fuel tanks move from empty to full whenever we stop at the pumps. Then they deplete until the next time we stop at the pumps. It's a cycle that repeats. Low fuel is not generally a cause of failure.

Take the body - feeling low? Get something to eat. Problem solved? Maybe ... maybe not.

Was there a real problem or was it a natural cycle? It's a fact that we eat mostly out of habit. That's useful as it means we don't have to waste brain-power and time on deciding when to eat. Well, most of the time anyway. Once we have a regular eating habit that works for us, we can just follow it, but if we have to adjust it due to circumstances it's not normally a problem - we have enough in our system so that if we have to go without for a day or so we may hardly notice any adverse effect (indeed it may be beneficial to fast for a while). 

"Disease is in essence the result of conflict between Soul and Mind, and will never be eradicated except by spiritual and mental effort"

But is the medical world missing something important of which practitioners of old habitually took note?

" ... they are building their war plans, but they are leaving NATO behind ... "

Alex Krainer reviews the current state of global relations, with particular interest in the Ukraine. It seems that there is still no shortage of those who will keep stirring that brew of evil.

And is the UK really to take command of northern European navies? Perhaps that's one reason why we need more admirals than we have ships ...

Will the doors on the global panopticon ever need to slam shut?

Are we not already comfily ensconced in our own virtual reality paradigm, automatically entertained by our YouTubers of choice brought to our attention by the ever-obliging System? The System that seemingly effortlessly, even magically, knows what we want before we ourselves have realised it?

Hmmm.

Sofia Karstens writing for the Brownstone Institute thinks that we are a long way down that road already. 

But it's not the collective we as a group, it's the we of separate individuals acting individually ...  and that difference is critical, because humanity isn't a bunch of separated individuals, it's individuals acting as individuals, as groups, as associates, as parts of larger wholes that form spontaneously to achieve objectives larger than any one individual could even envisage, let alone complete.

But if we can only associate with others via the system (and we are almost there already) then the system can prevent us from seeing potential associates and thereby limit our possibilities to those of which it approves.

Is there a way back out from inner?

The IPCC may have had second thoughts but the crisis in the Gulf continues.

Will 2026 become renowned for a Summer of Discontent as fuel prices rocket, a farming crisis takes hold, food shortages arise, pubs close, and the Starmer not-a-government stumbles incompetently onward regardless of anything but its own survival, even at the cost of allowing Ed Miliband to "take charge"? 

"In office but not in power" springs to mind.

If all this serves to finally wake the people to the notion that this kind of government by incompetent complexity has reached the end of its road, and needs replacing by something more simple, more direct, more honest, and even actually responsive to the basic needs of the people, then perhaps finally some good may emerge from the wreckage. 

But don't hold your breath.
