WRONSKI WRANGLES

  It seems from the news reporting that we are rushing headlong into the world of artificial intelligence. AI. Like kids with a new toy. Playing in the street. Parents admonishing us to be careful. Who said, "How ya' gonna keep 'em down on the farm after they've seen Paree"? Kids can sometimes end run the Old Folks and sneak out the bedroom window. Shit happens. Guardrails and guidelines we'll have. Plenty. Endless potential for argument and discussion right there. Maybe we'll use AI itself to come up with the rules?  Even with the best of intentions, some malevolent asshole will find a way around. Even, a well-intentioned one too. Oh, you say, what's the difference? Since Adam and Eve decided back there in the Garden that they could do it themselves, study your history. Blind leading the blind. Mishap upon mishap. Oh, we have progress. Smartphones are a thing now. Hot water on tap is great. Like we're becoming so strapped to our devices, imagine h...

First, the rules that apply. The universal one. A big one: Gravity. We all generally know about how the force of Gravity keeps your feet on the ground. Downward pull ... grounding. Let go, and it falls down. That’s called “centripetal”. There’s also the opposite and equal force. “Centrifugal”. Upward ... lifting. That latter one, the upward movement, that one we don’t really appreciate in an every day, directly experienced way. Here’s something you might not know. When your body is aligned in its makeup in respect to the demands of Gravity that upward movement is an empowering, healing agent. You feel it. It’s a lived experience. It’s alway there, just now to pay attention. Big thing to know: There’s always an up and a down. An upside, and a downside. Then there’s bombs. What does Gravity have to do with bombs? Bombs go BOOM. Also, they go down. No surprise there. Is there an upside? What goes up from bombs? Nothing good. Reading the news should fill you in on the details. Same for ro...

Dear reader: If you have any additional ideas, or if you have some other point of view ... please, comments are welcome.   Some things for the two candidates to chew on leading up to the upcoming debate. [BTW there are other candidates, but they don't get to debate.] For President Trump: Okay, Mr. President, we know you have your way. Ways. The nation is in a love/hate relation with you on that. All that. Let's see you turn a page. Stay focused. Don't swat like a pussy at every feather flutter on a string at the end of a stick. Or, have to fill every rabbit hole with words. An old dog like me knows how to tell if you're lying: those lips are moving. Think about that. Maybe dial back the superlatives too. It's a joke now. HUGE ... joke. And, we give you this ... nobody does it better. Verbum Sap Sat! While we're mentioning particulars, maybe dial down the scattin' and jivin' off-script riffs. Some love it, but there are those who heretofor don't. Go f...

  I've been reading into the history and keeping up with the news since the unfolding events from October 7, 2023 which have brought the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to dead center world stage. Deadly center. For shizzle ... end times, apocalyptic potential.* Here's my short historical analysis ... and prognosis. Since it's founding in 1948 the State of Israel has been in a conflict relationship with the peoples displaced by its geographic founding. The Palestinians. And, being there also with the animosity of most of the Middle Eastern Arab world.  Western interests support the State of Israel out of their own hegemonic self-interest(s) in the region. Let's not even open that can of worms with the influence of the so-called Israel lobby over our government officials. Much less, how that support is garnered.  Bad behavior on both sides. All sides.  Old Testament vs. Third World. The Chosen Ones vs. the Amalek. C'mon, the Book of Samuel clearly states that God had co...

  You’re no doubt aware of candidate Kamala Harris using the term “unburdened” in context with vote getting for her joyful vision of wonderful future possibilities. Sounds pretty good. Of course it does. It's supposed to. At least in terms of how it sounds.  But, let's unpack that. Shall we? Who doesn't want to be unburdened? Everyone would vote for that. But, here's the tricky part. Just what does unburdened mean? Specifically, for Kamala? Beats me. To my ear this platitude is just a slick way to tack her star to a generality everyone buys into. Like, everything I do is with "love". Shucks. And, hell yes! Please tell us, Ms. Harris, just what are we gonna be unburdened from; and, what will that look like moving forward? It almost takes away any disagreement if she even ever states any specific(s). After all, her way forward will be unburdened, and we've already signed on for the unburdened part as nothing but good can come of that. Kapische?  Kind of like...
