Gurus and false prophets

Le Lapin ·

2024/03/06

One of the wonders of free speech is the possibility of knowing who or what you’re being faced with. The experience of a parrot-in-human-form becomes obvious when particular phrases are regurgitated by different people, as if the same psyche was inhabiting their body. One of the peculiar aspects of this encounter is how unique the speaker seems convinced they are. Such as in the Dunning-Kruger effect, where someone is too daft to know they are ignorant, when it comes to parroting propaganda or

Agreement

Le Lapin ·

2024/02/28

Perhaps there is one thing people can agree on today, anyone with a sane mind that is: destroying creates anguish. Finding acceptance of unacceptable behavior has been one of the tumultuous mental strains the notion of freedom has made my mind wrestle with. What would humanity be if they were allowed to do absolutely anything they want? Tribalistic? Canabalistic? Are they not doing these things, in tacit ways already? The pursuit of winning has seemed to be in vein…and I mean vein not vain. A life

Taking Time Towards Forever

Le Lapin ·

2024/02/22

Think for yourself. Be careful around people who say you think too much. They may want to think for you.External advice can confuse your internal compass in a similar way magnets on either side of the compass can make the dial spin around. To recenter in stillness and go where you want to go, doing what you want to do: find out what matters most to you by thinking about your perfect day alone. There is no perfect person out there for you. You may see a projection of your desire on a person (this is

The Bubble Theory Our universe is one bubble among many. Contained in an infinite loop. The event horizon is one in which two bubbles bump.

Pansies

When you die, you no longer fear death or anyone. The meaning of the infamous “Grateful Dead” carries so much significance in this way. I am really not a big fan of how-to guides, 12 steps, or any other gurus or life advice…but I have found this structure useful.

These waters rise by choice

Le Lapin ·

2024/01/17

What is the true interest in making the invisible, the visible? Usually this comes at the slow-rate of disclosing the truth in plein-air, or making an obvious fact of life hidden by social rhetoric (often referred to as a construct) exposed to the grounding, undeniable qualities of life. That is not ideological life, but the actual means in which each of us got to be here, and that which can be observed and documented. Yet, in these documentations, entirely different subjective experiences are not

Relative correctness

Le Lapin ·

2023/08/14

Art exists within realms of the sign, symbol, material, and mental, and some will go toward the soulful, spiritual, and emotional. These are not separated as to be opposing forces really, though culture psycho-socially often construes these human experiences that way. After some decades of wondering why anyone says art does nothing for them, I have arrived at the idea they may simply not be a fan of Understanding. Within the flood of sensory experiences, art has often led me to deeper insight into

On Beauty

Le Lapin ·

2023/07/19

One of the several arguments against Beauty is rooted in the notion Beauty is Subjective. Further still from a face-off or contrarian perspective, Beauty has grown as form of taboo substantiated by cultural standards. Given the hard and narrow push for the acceptance of the abject and the minimising of Beauty’s significance, this Lapin is penned for the remembrance of Emerson’s and Scarry’s writings on Beauty, as a means to widening the cultural production and being just and spiritually fulfilled

Kindness as cruelty

Le Lapin ·

2023/07/09

Thank you for reading Le Lapin. This post is public so feel free to share it.“It could be worse.” Phrases like this may mean well and prove to be slippery slopes. Meant often in kindness prove to be not very kind, in parallel to the way Self-Help books are psychospiritual, as well as social-economic traps. Things could be worse, and they can usually also be better. The way things are looked at has a bit to do with where one is situated in life. This makes writing about kindness or cruelty difficult

Hell is a train stop

Le Lapin ·

2023/05/25

I was told hell can mean luck in some contexts. To be direct with you, Hell is a beautiful place. The train stop sits just outside of Værnes airport in Trøndelag. You don’t have to believe me; you can find out with some map service. Hell is a train stop in Norway. And just a stop, you can get off or keep riding. Hell is a sort of creation of our beings, a manifestation of fears. And yet, the peaceful serenity of Norway seems like a hell for many natives, and a heaven for folks such as me. Peace,
