The current scarcity of people who are even aware of their own spiritual gifts, let alone people who are making good use of them, can't be good for us as individuals or for the human race as whole.
I think there is a connection between the dearth of people who are aware of, and also making good...
Machine learning has automated many, if not most, low-level cognitive tasks in the Industrial Park. That is why there are very few "entry level jobs" in the Global Village. Residents have had to use their high-level cognitive ability to anticipate what parts of contracted work will be fully...
My hypothesis about spiritual gifts undergoes constant changes as I get new information about them. I find the subject fascinating and like to keep learning more about them. Helping other people discover and learn about their own spiritual gifts is probably my main spiritual gift, so that...
So, has the bubble burst? Has my new-found validity run out of steam? Met its match? Died a death? The answer is most assuredly: No.
Indeed, I have put it to the test. I have thrown everything I can think of at it: There have been social events, stressful health issues, concerns about the...
During a recent chat I mentioned an old scary movie I saw and nobody had heard of it. Others in the chat said something to the effect that it must have been before they had horror movies or something like that. They even had horror movies in silent film. It might be that what people think is...
SO I saw my GP this morning...as I somewhat expected he said he didn't see any signs that pointed towards Aspergers or autism, but he did recommend therapy.
Right now I feel stuck in between feeling stupid for bringing up my hunch about having autism or relieved for being able to start therapy...
I found a series of videos where Tony Attwood answers questions regarding Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). I think these videos were a part of an interview conducted by the organization Spazio Asperger.
The videos are split up into seven parts and they're in English with Italian subtitles. The...
One of the things that I didn't enjoy about the way
other kids played with dolls was the 'naming.'
They insisted that the dolls have transitory names,
a name for the duration of an afternoon.
Only the first two dolls I got had names.
Crybaby and Lucy.
I got them when I was four years old...
The fact that dolls didn't have detailed genitals didn't bother me as a child.
It doesn't bother me now. The idea of playing with dolls, in my mind, didn't
include sex acts. I did have a wetting doll, but not an eating or pooping doll.
My wetting doll 'drank' water and the water came out her...
Having enough to eat is getting harder to manage because of climate change. More than half of all of the food producing land in the USA was in drought at the same time recently. We can expect more disruption of our normal food growing as climate change gets worse. This will be exacerbated by...
I am considering "Dolls" separately, for now, in regard to the
generator titled "VooDoo Dolls."
Some ideas about dolls/Part 1
I liked dolls when I was little.
I didn't much like playing dolls with other kids, though.
They seemed to want to do stupid things with their dolls.
I didn't want to...
The 4th generator I made was titled "How to Use Your VooDoo Doll."
VooDoo doesn't appeal to me. I associate it with killing chickens
and casting spells. Thinking evil, mainly.
The letters V.D. stand for venereal disease, aka sexually transmitted disease.
When I was little I didn't get the idea...
I'm anxious today. My short holiday is coming to an end, and tomorrow marks the day I'll be starting my final internship before graduating med school. I've been very excited about this, but ever so insidiously, The Fear started creeping in over the past few days. Maybe it's because I've been...

EMO TOOLS seemed a perfectly contradictory topic to me.
It was the subject of my 3rd generator.
Tools are inert, non-living, unfeeling objects.
Emos are emotionally over-wrought human beings, full of adolescent angst.
Used together they described implements for the sensitive do-it-yourself guy...
Sorry for being slow on posts lately. I am working on writing something for a local paper about why drastic cuts in the bus system coverage in my city are a bad idea. This may slow down my posts here a little longer, but I am still doing research for good links for you.
Here is one about some...
Don't hide your true self. You never know who may be out there looking
for exactly who you are.
You may have a double somewhere on this planet but the odds are against it.
So quit trying to be someone you are not or you may find yourself trying to be the wrong person at the very time someone...
