"Let’s make one thing very clear: So far, there is almost no proof that JD Vance is directly responsible for the death of Pope Francis. All we know is that the vice president met with the pope and, a few hours later, the pope was dead. To draw a line between those two facts would almost definitely be a little bit premature." mcsweeneys.net/articles/gettin #humour #fun #coincidence

Guest article by Dr. #Bernhard #Weßling: “#Origin of #coincidence, #complexity, #crises and #time

The following guest article by Dr. Bernhard Weßling is not a “product of chance” this time, like his first guest article “What a coincidence!” published by me. This time it is about the consistent continuation and expansion of the 1st edition of his book of the same name, which has now been published as the 2nd edition with the subtitle “On the origin of unpredictability, complexity, crises and time”.

In it, Mr. Weßling expands on his previously explained, novel #concept of chance and complexity and examines the fundamental #cause of crises. To this end, he again uses the concept of #entropy to put it up for discussion as a criterion for #sustainability.

I would also like to put the #theses contained in his new book up for #discussion here on my #science blog. I am therefore looking forward to possible, even coincidental #resonances and - just like Dr. Weßling - look forward to numerous #comments. But first of all, here are the headlines to his thesis paper, which of course only represents an excerpt and cannot reflect the informative and argumentative depth of his book:

1. crisis as a #constant: Why #polycrises are not a novelty
2. chance, complexity and crises: The inseparable #connection
3. #Crisis management with #responsibility: sustainability as the key
4. entropy as a measure of sustainability: a new #perspective on #environmental protection
5. the #shadow sides of #CO2 technologies: Why #DAC and #CCS are not sustainable
6. #Natural #CO2 storage: #ecosystems as a solution for #climate and biodiversity
7. the #interplay of chance, complexity and entropy: a new look at the #worldorder
8. the #limits of #reductionism: why a #world formula does not exist
9. #Emergence and time: How #complex #systems and time itself emerge
10. the #human #perception of time and its separation from the essence of time

A quotation from Emerson

Shallow men believe in luck, believe in circumstances — it was somebody’s name, or he happened to be there at the time, or it was so then, and another day would have been otherwise. Strong men believe in cause and effect.

Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803-1882) American essayist, lecturer, poet
Essay (1860), “Worship,” The Conduct of Life, ch. 6

Well, Mulder and Scully, Unthank are getting their septic tank emptied. Guess what I've ordered for about this time as well.

I don't think it's the same contractor that I've booked. Oh yes, it's also snowing again.
#coincidence

In her retirement, my mum has been learning to play the cello, having played it when she was at school.

She went to the Oxfam music shop at the weekend to get a book of studies, to practice with.

She found one, opened it up, and... saw her name written inside the cover, in her own handwriting from 60-odd years ago.

For some days, I leave open my telegram group to study how synchronicity is related with the development of #extrasensorial #skills. My idea is that we interact in the chat, so we can learn from each other. #Telepathy, #dejavu, #premonition, improvement of the way we deal with our dreams at night, #mind #reading, the relationship between art and the invisible realities, as well as the development of the #intuition, are among the subjects that we want to learn together.

Despites I am #autistic, and recently we have been noticed about the #telepathy #tapes, talking about #non oral autistic as people able to read minds, due to my experience in #oniric analysis, and the following of #coincidence at the same time, I can assure that everyone who is really interested, and friki, is able to start waking up these dormant skills.

On the chat you can speak in English, Spanish German or other languages because today with the translation bots is very easy to communicate with people from other cultures.

Here I leave you with the link of the telegram group in case you are curious. This is a test grup to see how it goes, and sometimes I am not keeping it as a public group: I open the entrance do it the first 5 days of every month but my idea is to keep it small so we are like a family and we feel safe to share dreams, coincidences, synchronicities oddities and many things that in another context are subject to get mocking, because we, #neurodivergent interested in these subjects, have to face that many people tell us that we are crazy, or that we are lying.

If you are familiar with groups of oneironauts you already know that in those communities there are a wide range of views and cosmovisions, so one of the main values of my group is that we can express our diversity with love compassion and education. We respect the subjective spiritual perceptions of each one, that's why dogmatism is not very much aligned with the vibes of the group. However we also search into scientific studies, what can be useful to learn our skills, and we hope that these subjects get into mainstream because more people remember the real power of their souls and minds. That will likely improve our planet: once you have been in communication with a plant, your behaviour will change. If more of us understand that for example telepathy, is directly related with unmasking and with compassive communication, the autenticity becomes the rule and not the exception... Utopia can happen!

The Altar on the picture is one example on how we can make our dreams talk during the day by means of getting in contact with our inner child and interact with objects or art as a way of journaling and honouring our dreams.

With synchronicity, the more you follow it, the more you you start feeling that, rarieties, paradolias, #coincidences and the content of your subconscious is able to access to information beyond the barriers of time. That's why when you try to understand what is inside your subconscious and get into development of intuition, you can feel that you were able to "see" or "know" a future event.

Studying #Sincronicity talks about the nature of #time , but in order to see it we must analyze and explore different manifestations of individual and collective subconscious, and we must do it constantly.
