The Will to Life
We’ve got a very special guest this week. You’re going to have to tune in to find out who it is.
We’re covering a Ukrainian UFO video, Military-origin, recently declassified, filmed in May at 800 meters. It looks like an evil eye in a cloak. Mostly just an excuse to talked about how wrecked the whole UFO conversation is right now, like a force field of stink around a row of outhouses.
Then on to happier things, like how volcanoes might be evidence of a planetary mechanism of homeostasis. Gaia? Sure.
Anyway:
* Surprise guest
* A Ukrainian UFO video
* “Filmed on a potato” quality
* Why the UFO conversation is exhausting by design (here’s that essay, by Dr. Heather Lynn, about how the aliens-vs-demons question is a type of semantic warfare)
* “Mr. Credibility weighs in” (re: JD Vance)
* Peter Thiel and the evangelical framing apparatus
* The porta potty force field
* How the Joseph Smith story reminds Jordan of the current UFO conversation
* The slough of despond
* Whatever happened to quicksand?
* Brother Richard, again, on every entity having something to teach you
* The Debrief: a volcano with a built-in emergency brake
* Why the Gaia hypothesis is useful
* Homeostasis is the signature of life
* Mars: dead. Venus: hellfire. Earth: alive!
* “Don’t sh*t in the strawberry patch”
* Strip mining the Appalachians
* “Poverty is a societal choice. Food scarcity is a societal choice.”
* Viktor Frankl
And in the epilogue…
* What our special guest has been up to lately
* Jordan’s insane commitment to 100 Essays in 100 Days
* Advantages of the end times
