What is the place of the potato in the great chain of being?
Hello friends,
In the last two weeks, you replied to let me know that you'd like to get an email when I post something new to my blog. Well, I have posted something new to my blog. In fact, two things since you last hear from me. I was holding off sending letters until I got all the opt-ins processed. But from now on, you'll get a letter every time, which will probably be every Friday.
Here's yesterday's post with a little excerpt:

And here is last Friday's post:So as I sat down that day with my lunch, struck by the beautiful meal, I wanted to thank someone or wish someone well, or at least feel some appreciation. I don’t want it to be like the sad desk salad days when office workers would rush outside, buy a prepackaged salad, and then hide in our cubicles and eat it alone like we were Mandalorians who had to take off our helmets in private to eat. I want to appreciate what I have. It would be handy, at this point, to have a God to thank, to stand in for all the people and circumstances that made the meal possible. Believers have an advantage in these situations. Read more.
Dangerous texts: Vajrayana practice texts, technical manuals, and your annual review
Derrida’s concepts of logocentrism and text as the dangerous supplement offer a way to understand the strange ways some texts are held back until you’ve heard them out loud
Have you ever been to a corporate training, maybe one about some proprietary software or technique, where you got a manual, maybe in a 3-ring binder? You probably had to go to the training in person before they’d let you have the manual and sit through it, even though a lot of it was literally just the trainer going through the manual with you. Later, you get to keep the manual, and, let’s even say this manual is very useful, it’s kind of weird that you couldn’t just get the manual first. But no, for some reason you had to hear it out loud first. Weird, huh? Read more.
Thanks for reading!
