For some weeks, I’ve been struggling finding the link between various of my concepts: Needs, Wants & Beliefs, being collective development stages in Life; Awakening, an individual (human) development stage; Chaos, Equilibrium & Vacuum, which are stages of Change; Trump’s revolution of disruption, chaos and destruction (part 1 to part 6). Last Tuesday, a...

The Fermi paradox (2)
26 May, 2026
A decade ago, I published: The Fermi paradox and some other similar questions (2016, part 1). Recently, an interview with Simon Conway Morris, evolutionary biologist, argued this: ‘We’re Looking in the Wrong Place’: On Life, Aliens, and Human Uniqueness.

I suppose that the article’s subtitle explains its contents: “Humans weren’t given souls by God or genes. We made them ourselves with language – turning sentience into something sacred” Source: AON, 17 April 2026, The invention of the...
Leitmotiv
28 Apr, 2026
Ik vroeg ooit aan mijn toenmalige Vlaamse vriendin waarom zij nooit mee betaalde. Ik betaalde telkens alles. Haar antwoord was verbijsterend: haar niet meebetalen was haar wraak op haar Nederlandse ex-echtgenoot. Ze was bloedserieus. Mede gezien de openbare reviews over haar, vermoed ik dat haar wraak op mannen niet alleen haar gedrag, maar ook haar karakter heeft...
