@lowqualityfacts Yes, he invented it to use up sheep's milk that was past its due date.

Marxism, if I have to choose between the two. No deep reason. Humanism just seems kinda wimpy in these latter days, and Marx has style. But I once described my political orientation as "radical neo-Burkean conservo-communard," so you say I'm a bit slippery and "unserious" when it comes to Ist and Ism. These days I'd have to stick nihilist in there somewhere... eudemonic nihilist... or may be just Inhumanist.

I've been to New Harmony, in which Owen (and his son) were involved. There is an inn which uses some of the old buildings from the communal days as lodgings. Also, there's a museum. You can get the t-shirt.

@futurebird I don't put apps on my phone if I can possibly avoid it. I only install apps if it's the only way to access something. I use my (Vivaldi) browser to access social media, including Mastodon.

@futurebird The arc of the amoral universe is long, but it bends towards entropy. History seems more like a spiral to me. Up or down, hmm. Elements repeat like musical motifs, but it doesn't end where it began. Quite. Have you heard of the Lakes of Wada, in topology the Wada property or Wada basins? Fate exhibits the Wada property, I (sometimes) think. Rusty Cohle in #TrueDetective was as someone said, one dark dude.

@futurebird I have never used an Airbnb and never intend to. Bnbs tend to degrade neighborhoods for the people who live in them.

I’m old enough that I watched the original Star Trek on network tv which I loved because I was 8yo. I saw the first Star Wars movie first run at age 19. I thought it was dumb, a mishmash of tired sf and war movie tropes. I’ve only seen subsequent Star Wars “episodes” that friends dragged me to. It has become a mythology. People live inside it. For some there is no outside. To borrow from Lord Dunsany, mythology, like whisky, loses it beneficial effect effect when taken in large quantities.

@futurebird Same. Books are durable data storage media, and do not require electricity to operate. All that is required of the user is literacy. I have piles of journals dating back to the late 1970s, and I still have books I acquired back then too (and many, many others since). My problem now is how to pass them on to people who will read, care for, and preserve them. And I just inherited 45 file boxes of books from my recently deceased mother-in-law, a fellow bibliomane.
