  1. Italians are Europe's honorary Black people. The cars the clothes the mob, that aesthetic.
  2. Thank you, this post brings some much needed light. Del In one of my visits to Switzerland I met a Swiss man whose father was African. I also met another biracial Swiss person in NYC. So thanks @Chevdove. Keep on Keeping on
  3. Definition of asshole 1 usually vulgar : ANUS 2 usually vulgar : a stupid, annoying, or detestable person. stupid (Entry 1 of 2) 1a: slow of mind : OBTUSE b: given to unintelligent decisions or acts : acting in an unintelligent or careless manner 😄 lacking intelligence or reason : BRUTISH 2: dulled in feeling or sensation : TORPID still stupid from the sedative 3: marked by or resulting from unreasoned thinking or acting : SENSELESS @Stefanyou are finally checking a lot of boxes. I thought reporters fact checked their work. You are in sore need of an editor. That's not the first time you've heard that, is it?
  4. We just had elections and I saw the Fusion Party. The Pirate description grabbed my attention.
  5. @Stefan before becoming indignant and and saying I both lack knowledge and morality, you may want to crack a dictionary to make certain you understand what I am saying. In addition the word you want to use is ethics not morality. Notice that most professions have a code of ethics, not a code of morality. While I don't promote myself as anything other than a psychic and a thinker. You are among the minority in lacking that information. Corporate finance teaches that the goal of the shareholders, and in fact the goal of the entire firm, is maximization of shareholder wealth. By the way you're a condescending a$$hole, while not being the sharpest person in the forum. You and @nels are in competition for being the best at being the worst. Perhaps at some point in your life you will either become more courteous or less ignorant.
  6. Yes Stefan is trying to explain business to me but feels I am Intimidated by his knowledge and writing skills. @Stefan
  7. Voting is almost as good as buying a politician. https://www.fusionparty.org.au/
  8. @Cynique or @Troy what's this wannabe talking about bizness reporta running on about? Can someone get Nafets pointed in the right direction. And explain to him what the main purpose is of a corporation
  9. So arming teachers or having armed guards won't end school shootings. The shooting in Buffalo had a armed security guard. Or am I mistaken. The only thing army people does is promote vigilantism and perhaps minimise the number of casualities
  10. Most survive and a few thrive.
  11. No your impenetrable ignorance is what bothers me. However neither your nor I care enough to change that situation. Perhaps someone else that actually works in business can explain my original comment. Since you seem to be stuck in neutral. Although you are positive that you are right.
  12. Great and predatory, just like our national bird.
  13. It's what made America Great.
  14. It's a brilliant religious reference although it's is probably unintentional.
  15. The Universe is in your unconscious. I'll ask a few friend to describe it their own words. Time is measured using numbers. I have found a way to decipher the qualitative aspects of numbers. It was a project I worked on in 2008. In the intervening years I have applied that information to time. I actually created a technique to read the unconscious around 2000. Then I formalised it by using a set of symbols around 2008. Then in 2020 a created a more complicated set of symbols that is akin to a language. Even other Astrologers have no idea what I am talking about with any of this system. So you are making more progress than them.
  16. This is basis of Mantra or chants. Om being one that is well known. Creation was started by the word or Logos
  17. The first principle is that you must not fool yourself and you are the easiest person to fool. Richard P. Feynman
  18. I think the US is analogous to a sporting teams' farm systems. There are minor leagues but very few make it to the majors. However they do provide entertainment while the aspire to a greater audience and pay check. That farm system starts in school, and for some sports not education is the ticket out of their situation.
  19. Astrology as a term used to be used interchangeably with Astronomy. Astronomy is scientific, it has to do with facts about all things celestial. Astrology is focused on looking at planets, stars and comets in a divinatory sense. To either delineate a person's character or foretell the future. So the difference is that Astrology makes use of correspondences to tell a story. For instance the Sun reprsents Men an authority, the Moon represents Mothers and women in general, Mercury represents children, Venus is Women, Mars is Men, Jupiter is Grandparents, Saturn is older people. In addition the planets have many other meanings, as does the sign and house positions. House position is a ay to divide the chart in 12 sections. The size of the those sections change based on the location the chart is drawn. Below is the chart for the time you asked your question about Astrology. So in approxiamtely an hour from 3:55 the sun should be close to the horizontal line which actually represents the horizon. The slices of move about 15 degrees every hour. Fifteen degrees on a map equates to roughly 1000 miles of longittude. 15 degrees x 24 = 360 degrees in a circle 1000miles (earth's rotational speed) x 24 = roughly the diameter of the earth. So an Astrological chart is like a clock that measure hours of the day because of house movement. The movement of the Moon roughly corresponds to the length of a month(moonth). The sun moves on average about 1 degree a day. = 360 which is equivalent to the length of a year. Also Jupiter spends nearly a year in each zodiac sign. The cool thing about a chart is that it is a synbolic way of show place + time. So it describes a moment in time. There are also different branches. So the same chart can be read differently. Buildings also have natal charts. I have heard that even though a person is dead their chart is still active. However that is something I of which know very little.
  20. Astrology is a symbolic way to show time and space. Time + Space = Reality. So Astrology provides a way to see objectively see subjective reality. The chart is objective but the interpretation of the Astrological chart is subjective. Unless the image reaches consensus in which case it objective. @Cynique
  21. I am learning more about time.
  22. “Never confuse education with intelligence, you can have a PhD and still be an idiot.” Richard P. Feynman
  23. Yes that's sounds right. Occasionally on FB I'll make a statement about Astrology that other people don't understand and then tell me I'm wrong. What happens occasionally is I get so annoyed I discover something or create a new technique. I have been developing new rules of disengagement with ignorant arguers.
  24. What's your technique for dealing with ignorant arguers. Asking for a friend. Clearly I won't be responding to everyone.
  25. You jump to a lot of conclusions that aren't right. That's not the point I was making. You both have an unjustifiably high opinion of yours knowledge in comparison to other people. And you both resort to insulting people when having a discussion. So I agree with your point about a person have a defect when they resort to insults. Which you did initially with me. So when you apologise for the insult and being wrong about my position, we can have a dialogue. Until that point I will leave you in your mirrored funhouse echo chamber. Unlike Narcissus you are in love with the sound of your own voice. Did you like the metaphor or is it an analogy? Our dialogue is now a monologue, actually it was never a proper communication, and it is no longer worth making an effort. Feel free to continue or desist.
