The Comfort Game

Victims come in two forms: real and fake. The actual victims of abuse, public humiliation, assault and marginalisation are easy to spot with a particular look and manner, and responses which are not conducive to self care. Fake victims, and Western culture is full of them, are easy to spot with their hyper vigilance directedContinue reading “The Comfort Game”

Parent-Child

Elements to understand a society: Australia has long had a veil of white over it. We have a distinct history and location in the world both figuratively and literally. The culture here, like the continent, is evolving and changing yet there are one or two qualities which are surviving the environmental changes. From the 1820sContinue reading “Parent-Child”

Testosterone vs Oestrogen

1. Having experienced matriarchies, I can no longer support this element of feminism. 2. I can only be a feminist if I ignore the contributions of men. 3. Trans activists and their enablers want to erase me from existence just like the keenly religious, the hyper conservative, and that political group from Germany in theContinue reading “Testosterone vs Oestrogen”

Pfffffffff….

Some Americans are trying to create another Star Trek series or movie. Gonna vomit. Gene Roddenberry created a unique and brilliant TV series in the 1960s which focussed on the moral use of violence. When is violence morally acceptable? The Original Series gave way to a cartoon series then a series of movies. The NextContinue reading “Pfffffffff….”

Dickhead

Educational institutions which do not teach their staff the differences in teaching or in learning, nor the differences between childhood education and adult learning. Counselling students who are not vetted by counselling or counsellors but merely learn about counselling. Jobs which require communication skills but people running the course have not listened to themselves communicate.Continue reading “Dickhead”

Who’s in Charge?

Domination in a social setting seems quite important to many people, according to my observations. In Japanese culture, dominance is assigned according to an hierarchy of gender, age, position, class, income and race. In Australian culture, however, the boundaries are not just blurred, but fluid. This creates a complex of problems. Not only are interactionsContinue reading “Who’s in Charge?”

Joke

What did the cactus say to the unicorn? I don’t beleaf you.

The Rebels

They were fighting against tyranny, of course. Clear lines and imaginative set-ups and pay-offs, the original trilogy of Star Wars was great story telling. Good versus Evil is easy to understand. The how and why made sense for each character, each of whom went through personalised character arcs. While Good vs Evil is still theContinue reading “The Rebels”

Spirituality

The Meaning of Life What was that about hats, again?  Thanks Monty Python! This movie ought to be the first thing watched by every high school student from grades 10 to 12 and repeated every year of academic study. Would definitely reduce the number of goths and wokers.  One way I’ve identified to engage inContinue reading “Spirituality”

Fragile Narcissist

Narcissism is a psychological delusion. More than simply being selfish or opportunistic, narcissists have proceeded along a train of thought which leads them to disconnect from others’ needs. This delusion is where someone ‘knows’ that their needs must be met but there is no longer the ability to facilitate others’ needs. Where a narcissist isContinue reading “Fragile Narcissist”
