Rearing children

Cape Florida lighthouse By Brice Cooper Rearing children | Wednesday – March 4, 2026 In this 21st century the question of children and really of childhood appears to be at the forefront of civilization, and this approach to children is really a rather new phenomena. For instance, the idea that a child's opinion should have any impact whatsoever is in fact so recent that it can only be said that rearing children in this way has to be not much older than perhaps, at most, 70 years old. Indeed, it appears that a lot of conspicuously hip and "modern" people tend to approach the modern matter of childhood in this regard, and really this is often another expression of feminism , or at any rate assuming that children are " qualified " is often an assumption than coexists with feminism wherever it is applied. But it should be noted that childhood, a topic that I have covered in the past , is a fairly modern concept as well, and really the only traditionalism within the ...

March: Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry Notes on March | Tuesday – March 3, 2026 I do NOT like this month, not because I care about the name March or even the sociological construction of time, but rather because of all the noise and all the stuff that tends to go on this time of the year – yes I can say that I loathe this part of the year. I think that I too can say that I actually loathe spring, and quite frankly I would've done away with this all if I was the Creator , but then again I'm not, and this is something that humbles me. Of course, another nuisance about this time of the year is of course also the fact that it's getting lighter outside, and another very annoying aspect of light is the obsession some people have with clinging on to it, as if light somehow can be "conserved"; I'm of course referring to the stupid concept of "daylight savings time" – another profoundly modern concept that has done nothing but create problems. No, this mo...

War in Iran! (part two)

Azadi Square, Tehran By Akbar Nemati War in Iran ! Monday – March 2, 2026 I've already linked to my previous post about this from the other day. So if you're interested in reading that post, clock on "Iran" in the heading.     At first, I didn't plan to write about Iran any further, since this really is a subject that falls outside the scope of this blog, but I actually believe that writing about Iran makes perfect sense, and yes the situation on the ground and the geopolitical background for this act of war perpetrated by the United States and Israel is something that I do not intend to cover, but I do believe that I should cover the aspects of this that covers the metaphysics of the modern world, something that I did for the most part the other day, but since that post about this subject didn't quite cover everything I feel obliged to follow up with some clarifications, and it may be that I end up writing about some material and political aspects in regard...

War in Iran!

Azadi Square, Tehran By Akbar Nemati War in Iran ! Sunday – March 1, 2026 As I am writing this the situation in Iran is very volatile and "fluid" and "information" is very much disputed and unreliable, read " Navigating the informational landscape ". I do not believe in anything coming out of my news sources , at least not at the moment and we may be dealing with an enormous psychological operation here (PSYOP); well, actually regardless of the situation on the ground in Iran, what international media is now engaging in is essentially a large scale psychological operation, and really this is nothing but pure propaganda. Essentially, I can't discern anything happening on the ground in Iran and everything is simply too early to tell at the moment. Beyond that I believe that most people are ambivalent about this situation, which makes sense for the moment being, but do notice the masses and how they will slowly allow the propaganda to enable them to pivot...
