The following 1 minute clip is Hamilton Morris on Joe Rogan’s podcast. It speaks for itself,,, He mentions virtue signaling. Virtue signaling was and probably still is mixed in with my psychological blind spot at times,,,,

I’ve recently had a realization concerning virtue signaling. It was a topic discussed some here in the forum around the time I joined in 2017, I think it was. It’s really such a simple phenomena/concept to me now. That informs me that it was connected in some way to my psychological blind spot.  I associate it with being insecure and the need for reassurance. 
Looking at actualization of potential in terms of states and stages of consciousness really broadens the frame of reference to where one can view one’s deficiencies in contrast to one’s strengths or virtues. Along with states and stages of consciousness,-lines of development- can be mixed in to study where one is at and just as important is the question- what or how do you want to improve? What capacities? I really don’t care about my public speaking ability or a display of charisma. If someone only knows me through my writing on this journal. They will probably be completely disappointed meeting me in person. I’m very deadpan and non-expressive for the most part. But then again, my personality will morph depending on the company I’m with. To a degree,,, IMO- Human beings have an expansive latitude in their possible display of multi-dimensional characteristics. Shallow or surface level, specific, deep, paradoxical, serious, average, complex, light hearted, paranormal, or maybe just simple and easy going.

Self-similarity over scales. A contribution to understanding the Cosmos from out of Chaos Theory with its four base attributes or attractors. 

Bear with me. I'm just abstracting here for a bit. I'm seeing a human being comparative in some way to a solar system. Its system of bodily organs correlating to the planets and their particular energies with the Sun comparative with the human brain/heart combination of particular concentrations relating in some loose way to intellect/feeling - being. 


I'm not talking about astrology here. Although there may be some synchronistic correlations.

An atom with its rotating electrons makes a nice replica of the solar system across different scales. Can groups of solar systems correlate with molecules. Or maybe galactic clusters are similar to molecules in a greater scheme that has a single rotating galaxy matching in some way to that of an Atom or molecule or cell in an organized unrealized larger body???? Throw in the concept of dimensions that surpass our understanding of space/time.

The Universe is really vast!    Doesn't that sound like an understatement,,,,,?  I'm pondering the difference in consciousness between a scorpion and a highly educated, comedian philanthropist.

I’m out of touch with technology so far as practical applications go, but I enjoy learning about break throughs and the potential impacts this will have on our lives in the near future, 1-5 years,,,

The potential impact quantum computing will have on humanity makes artificial intelligence seem like no big deal,,,,

As always, take this with a grain of salt.
Yet I always exist on the side of optimism and gullibility with the habit of everything going into the as-if-it’s-true mental file folder until it’s determined without a doubt to be complete bullshit.

We are vulnerable. Most people are more vulnerable psychologically and emotionally than we suspect. I fear what Artificial Intelligence will do to affect our mental health in the future. In general, we do not admit our own negativity towards others. The tendency to provoke or manipulate others through ‘button pushing’…….This is a tendency that happens unconsciously and in a semi-conscious way. What will A.I. do when this human frailty is exposed within its intelligence? Are those who are concerned with ethics within the  world of A.I. even have this on their radar?

There’s an idea in the Fourth Way (esoteric Christianity) that it’s not sex that makes the world go around but rather negative emotions. It’s not a very cheerful idea but has a basis in objective observation.
