Thursday Thought
Raine wants to organize our house by optimizing the flow of energy through space and design. I’m adamant that it should be more traditional. It’s my way or the Feng Shui. #ThursdayThought #lunchpun
„Sich über andere Menschen zu ärgern ist wie Gift schlucken und warten dass dein Gegenüber stirbt.“
When the historians of the future begin to decode our society what method of digital DNA will they use?
Even at this early juncture in the rise of AI we can see the difficulties in ascertaining fact from fiction, organic from electronic. With the entropy of time the foundations of our knowledge will become ever more fluid.
Who's to say what's real or not, or even what the definition of reality will be.

Feel strong soon.
Some days you wake up and just can’t…
Haven't done a #ThursdayThought #book #quote thing for a while. I've just spotted someone bring up this one, so I'm shamelessly filching it:
“Man, do not pride yourself on your superiority to the animals, for they are without sin, while you, with all your greatness, you defile the earth wherever you appear and leave an ignoble trail behind you -- and that is true, alas, for almost every one of us!”
Fyodor #Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov (1879-1880)

Currently the Ottawa River at Britannia is flowing 1.68x the volume of both of the Niagara Falls combined 
Currently at Britannia the water flow is 4830 m^3/sec
The Niagara Fall State park says:
3,160 tons of water flows over Niagara Falls every second. This accounts for 75,750 gallons of water per second over the American and Bridal Veil Falls and 681,750 gallons per second over the Horseshoe Falls.
75750+681750 = 757500
757500 gallons = 2867 m^3
Not sure if it’s just me but #TheMandalorian has gone a bit downhill hasn’t it?

#ThursdayThought and I've got to go for the eminently quotable Sir Terry #Pratchett once more:
“When he was a boy he'd read books about great military campaigns, and visited the museums and looked with patriotic pride at the paintings of famous cavalry charges, last stands and glorious victories. It had come as rather a shock, when he later began to participate in some of these, to find that the painters had unaccountably left out the intestines. Perhaps they just weren't very good at them.”

Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, Acceptance...
The five stages of waking up.

“It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till. What weather they shall have is not ours to rule.”

- PS. The final bit may not have aged well given climate change, but I don't think he meant literal weather anyway.

Have you ever wondered why two of the magi brought Jesus aromatic frankincense & myrrh? Ummm... because it was a fucking stable and reeked of cow & donkey shit...duh. Febreeze didn't exist yet. #ThursdayThought
