Nice try Not falling for it

The ducks have returned from summer vacation

This is the world we’re heading to if we don’t defend freedom Free speech, science, and truth will be made a crime Start fighting for freedom NOW

Individualism is the extreme focus on your eternal soul Your soul cannot survive without helping mankind improve Their understanding is not required Following the moral path is required

YOU CAN’T SEE THE SHIT I’VE SEEN AND GO BACK

“Without Knowledge, Skill cannot be focused. Without Skill, Strength cannot be brought to bear and without Strength, Knowledge may not be applied.” - Alexander The Great, age 33

17th book of 2024 completed: Sapiens by Yuval Noah Harari A very interesting description of the Cognitive Revolution in homo Sapiens that occurred ~70,000 years ago. Humans ability to tell stories and create abstract concepts allowed us to communicate and organize more effectively, primarily around social structures that only exist in the mind. The last couple chapters as Harari gets closer to modernity he goes a bit off the rails, putting too much faith (imo) on governments and believing transhumanism is a likely way forward. His turn towards the WEF agenda at the end should not discount the excellent thought provocation of the rest of the book. Would recommend, with those caveats

16th book of 2024 completed: The Road to Eleusis: Unveiling the Secret of The Mysteries by R Gordon Wasson, Albert Hofmann, and Carl A Ruck This was one of the original books written about the use of psychedelics in religious ceremonies. It was used as a reference for The Immortality Key but if you’ve read that one, you probably don’t need to read this one.
