Free Ideas

What good do ideas do gathering dust in a drawer, bogarting electron holes on a disk? No good. So might as well share them. Maybe they can do you some good. Not asking anything in return. See something you like? Just call "dibs." More.

New Theme Song!

Cool! Never had a theme song before. Listen. Drew Anderson of MoHDI was nice enough to write this for me! You, too, can get "One Awesome Song."

Cartoon: Circular Reasoning 2

cartoon of a man whose brain is tied in logical knots But the thought balloon version of “Circular Reasoning 1” doesn’t quite express how much we torture our thoughts and ourselves to get our ideas of ourselves to fit. Here’s a second attempt.

A lot of logic is circular. Say I’m mean to people who I think are mean to me. That makes them upset, which lets me think, “See, they’re mean! I’m justified in being mean!” 

Applies to good thoughts, too. Love can be a good kind of circular reasoning.
