more convinced than ever that all nutritional “categories” are made up. bread is high carb. potato is high carb. fruits are high carb. fruit and bread have nothing in common. this is emperors new clothes tier. eat an orange. eat a potato. tell me theyre similar. they are not.
now i get to go to the labcoat village so some witch doctor with the magic papers can explain that pineapple and bread secretly, beyond all methods of sensory perception, share some aura. some supraphysical ESSENCE they call “carbs”. once again i say show me a carb. you CANNOT
today students we will be opening the DIETARY NECRONOMICON. it was found in some persian ruins by an english merchant in the 1800s. everyone he knew died instantly when he opened it. this tome catalogs these various extra-sensory essences. the 10,000 “different kinds of carbs”.
average nutritional sub-category defender explaining that bananas and bread and potato share a secret hidden essence: Image
they will tell you plant such as kiwi has protein now. theyre just making it up as they go.

one semiotic social-spiritual note that is interesting considering the last year is how "normal people" talk about illness and medical stuff with others. i first noticed this around 3 years ago when a friend got this medical problem, and i noticed how people talked about it [..]
i noticed that, all the time, if we were somewhere and he said, "yeah, I have X", people would say something like "oh man, my uncle died from that". it happened all. the. time. and he's just standing there like, "okay... cool. thanks... for that information...?".
since then i notice this quite often. that someone will mention having a medical problem or potentially having one and people will just immediately say something like that. "oh yeah, a lot of people are dying from that now", or something. that is socially acceptable, for sure.

got a ton of books recently. usually i pick these up for very cheap (around a dollar). after a few threads, people have asked about why / if i actually read them. the answer is that i have a little library here at the studio and i pool things for inspiration. still setting it up: Image
so i pick up anything in my network of topics, and then later when im making images or jumping from one topic to another, i can just pull things off the shelf, hit the relevant chapters, thats basically how i work now. it lets me move through things in a natural way, u could say.
i usually hover somewhere in the vicinity of ‘not having much, if any, extra cash’ but last time wife and i counted we had around 1000 books. its way more now. sometimes i feel like im just building up the library so i have it.

ok let me show u the books i got.

do NOT do your own research. its all figured out - the first principle of physics ImageImageImage
its all figured out bro we figured it all out already ImageImageImageImage
2 much text mode: max plancks teacher told him physics was basically complete + over + to pick another field and then like 20 years later he permanently changed the field forever by solving certain problems having to do with energy and matter, the basic currency of physics itself

odd book patrol is active once again
found a whole box of books from the 70s that someone apparently really into faith healing or something must have collected (theres a bunch more) may or may not obtain
as usual the 70s / early 80s american christian book cover aesthetic is just unstoppable

(also as usual weird place / weird lighting)

i have reentered medica mundi. everything is fine, some “nurses” (covenous, spelled with the “coven”) have convinced me to have nascent owen jr ‘scanned’, with varying explanations, of course i suspect this has something to do with monitoring his dreams, perhaps collecting them.
i suspect the “administration” (galactic, hospital, or state) is concerned he may be figuring things out at too rapid a pace. perhaps he already knows “too much”. he has REM cycles. full dreams. where does he go? of what does he dream? no one can tell me this. no explanation.
of course i am also entertaining more mundane explanations. for example, we have all observed the general dearth of creative media. some of these “nurses” may be failed writers, who, lacking inspiration, have resorted to scanning baby dreams. the perfect plagiaristic crime.
