So I was fiesty, I had shaved and taken a shower and was thinking about how I am anti-nature and full of hate and devoid of love as I formulated ideas for possible articles mentioning the Asura from Pathfinder or taking video games as spiritually insightful and religiously serious. Games like Final Fantasy, Shin Megami […]

I am going to read this book, as it will follow from Judith Butler’s ‘Gender Trouble’ quite nicely. It is a critique of post-humanism, which aside from talk of cyborgs and AI, I am more interested in the sense of the term as being about post-humanist views within knowledge. Rosi Braidotti is a post-structural feminist […]

Over the past few years, especially since 2012 after the world did not end, we have all seen a massive surge of right wing politics. They range from your garden variety loons who deny the Holocaust or think the Earth is flat, to anti-feminists (not necessarily right wing by the way), but the main influx […]

Hello. I am curious if any of you know of any artists of any sort who have both inspiring and skilled art along with admirable business strategies and techniques for accomplishing and promoting materials which you can mention here along with potential examples of their work. Most older generation artists, musicians, composers, and other sorts […]

So there are many cases where I feel almost compelled to do something, having some strange kind of faith that following whatever chaotic plan that is inspired in me is for some good, but not wanting to do it and even feeling ruined or disrupted by it, do it anyway, regretting it even before doing […]

Do you all feel that striving, that rage, that desire for something? What is it we want? What is it that we are looking for? What makes us happy and what do we expect will make us happy? I have this burning inside, and its made up of frantic dreams and hunger, a very deep […]

What do these two terms mean to you? What is preferable and why? People often mix complexity with confusion and simplicity with ease. Sometimes complexity is taken as a reference to or indication of sophistication and advanced intelligence, in other cases with madness. As for simplicity, some conflate it with stupidity or naivety. I don’t […]

Human history does not begin before a human being wakes up and sees and seems to remember what they see. Humans are not born into history, as far as one can tell, but rather seem to be born into the human condition, which is composed of haste and glued together by conjecture. The human condition […]

I will edit this post later to include a number of links which elude to the themeatic influence or reference to Islam in regard to a number of influential figures. This thread was inspired somewhat by Kenneth Grant’s comment that Aleister Crowley seemed to be influenced by similar themes, but may have missed mentioning or […]
