Let us start with a few key phrases related to understanding why so many people like watching sports, looking at car accidents when they drive past one, why museums exist & much more.
My goal is to help you understand all these topics, so that people can be enabled by this knowledge to somehow make the world a better place by reducing pollution and upgrading everything with better technology that harmonizes with ecosystem functions, to create more cleaner electricity, faster internet, better healthy soil in farming, gardening and agriculture, to help remediate and clean up polluted bodies of water or land or air. In order to make the world a better place continually fixing problems, using our collective intelligence as teams to make improved optimized and updated products, services and solutions to all problems as they arise, making the best of our finite time alive as individuals.
Human Brain Seeks Novelty
Everyone is doing this, like it or not, it is also why many adult men find younger beautiful women so attractive. If why some younger beautiful women seek after older wealthier more stable less crazy less risk-taking men, as younger men tend to be terrible husbands and terrible fathers, always chasing other women to practice reproduction with, or men if they are gay in that way that's different but similar. Its why people like playing new videos games for a while but move on to other video games when they get bored or tired of the previous one. Its why you tire of listening to a specific song after listening to it too many times.
New or the Same, Our Preferences Alternate
Our brain seeks novel experiences with food and drink, but also like consistency or familiarity, or similarity. For some people peanut butter never becomes boring to eat. For others like me who keep playing CS: GO for 20+ years online via STEAM, I like it because it reminds me of feeling way stronger and healthier in my early 20's, when I was more "Active" in all ways, fitter, happier, faster and more coordinated, but vastly less educated, less skilled and less knowledgeable.
Wiser with Older Age
Now at 41 I have been around long enough to generate summaries or cliff notes of systems or ideas, so that I am able to understand way more across a broad domain of topics. I set out as a child to learn as much as possible as a lifetime student of reality with a strong "SCIENCE" or Fact Seeking focus as a lifestyle, the internet fueled the acquisition of knowledge in a way that would otherwise be impossible. My brain hybridized with Wikipedia after reading it for tens of thousands of hours, via 3-5 hours per night for 20+ years.
Promoting Ideologies
I promote STEM on Twitter now X, on this blog, and have for many years. I believe that educating all people about why owning guns makes everyone safer during World War 3 very important for example, the same reason the second amendment to the US constitution gives Americans the legal right to bear arms or own guns and ammo as citizens united under human rights granted by the US Constitution. Read it U.S. Constitution | Constitution Annotated | Congress.gov | Library of Congress
A gun is a mechanical "force" amplifier, giving bearer of the gun the ability to kill for self-defense, when hunting, to shoot targets for sport, or in times of war to kill the enemy or agents of the Tyrannical government that we have a moral duty to remove from power. This is why police carry guns, so they can yield deadly force to protect themselves from armed criminals who will easily out gun or kill police otherwise. Police in nearly all countries carry a pistol in a holster hip mounted easy to access quickly with a high-capacity magazine filled with ammo, like a Glock 17 with 21 rounds of ammo.
How Guns Work
Guns are mechanical systems like an engine, but radically less complicated both in terms of system of parts and operating principles. In a gun, a spring loaded metal pin activated by human hand finger pulling the trigger, hits the explosive mix primer cap or gasket in rim fire ammo, to generate a hot fire lance jet of burning gas to ignite the bullet propellent powder, lacquer coated nitrocellulose grains, to generate 2000 to 50000 PSI of gas pressure to shove the copper coated lead bullet down the rifled grove spin stabilizing metal barrel of the gun, such that a muzzle flash emitted as the bullet exits the barrel at thousands of feet per second, slowed handgun ammo, faster rifle ammo, sound pressure and light and particles in the muzzle flash give a huge report of light and sound, giving away the shooters location easily detected, though a silencer can soak up the sound and light to suppress such position indications, radically protecting the hearing of the shooter by lowering the sound pressure level. Wearing eye and hearing protection while shooting can achieve a similar protective effect. Silencers also have to be cleaned regularly with solvents as the muzzle flash chemical components foul the silencer, barrel, receiver, or moving parts of a gun.
Proper Gun Care for Longer Useful Operational Life
I recommend regularly cleaning guns that are fired, with gun cleaning solvents and Q-tops, gauze, brass brush to scrub the barrel, similar, watch a "How to Clean & Lubricate Glock Pistol" video on YouTube to learn more. The idea is to remove the powder combustion products that form when the bullets pressure producing percussion cap and powder burn to generate heat and pressure to shove the bullet down the barrel. That leaves a residue of poisonous gunk that fouls the guns movement with carbon soot and goo and worse, which is why gun cleaning solvent on cleaning swaps or swatches, helps to scrub the gunk out of the gun. Use a high-quality gun specific lubricant and lube guide specific to your gun to lubricate all the friction surfaces protected by lubrication. Engines in automobiles shover the pistons down with heat and pressure from burning gasoline with air to create torque by spinning the engine crank shaft via the connecting rods like your legs pumping the pedals of a bicycle, that in turn spin the wheels and tires to move the vehicle. In this way metal moving down cylinders powered by chemical reactions, makes engines and guns similar. They also both release pollutants, though that is far easier to remediate and mitigate with automotive emissions controls as such systems are vastly less practical and not better than a silencer on a pistol or rifle. No matter what you do, the barrel will wear out after thousands of rounds, but you can replace it, the rest can be cleaned and oiled. Springs eventually need to be replaced. There are other wear items, but you can easily obtain replacement parts, you can even build a pistol entirely from parts with no serial number, or a taboo Ghost Gun :)
Working Memory of Human Brain
When you are awake, actively thinking, driving, walking, typing, operating a chain saw, playing with your smartphone, at a baseball or soccer game in first person watching the players, at a museum, working the land or soil on farm with hand tools like a plow or rake to remove weeds or plant seeds, watering your garden, playing video games, using apps, doing internet searches, think of all the different things that human people do or are able to do.
When you are sleeping dreaming, your brain can simulate objective reality as if you were awake with your senses sending your brains working memory information, but instead your brain is playing back information that was already encoded into your brain as protein synthesis that literally changes the structure and function of your brain during your waking time and even while you are dreaming, so dreams are your brain playing back information you already know, often in somewhat hard to follow or strange narrative or stories, where you just suddenly appear in the dreamscape, then try to make sense of the sequence of events that your brain produces as an inner light show using DMT so you are literally tripping balls or having a strong persistent high quality photorealistic hallucination while dreaming.
When you are awake you can remember about 4 complex ideas at the same time if your brain is in good working order as a fully formed brain as an adult of about 25 years of age with some real world life experiences living on your own away from your parents making income and paying bills and taxes, buying and driving cars or trucks or SUV's or scooters or motorcycles on public roads with thousands of hours of experience.
This is why new employees are never the CEO, it takes about 8000 hours to become an expert with a given domain of knowledge or skill, and to be a good CEO you almost have to be a sociopath or hyper selfish, since the goal of the CEO to maximize revenue from sales profit by any legal means.
That means that some CEO's of smelting facilities for example, knowingly make choices that result in lots of toxic pollution being emitted that while legal, because of a lack of regulation in Russian Nickel Platinum Mining, such polluting activities are allowed without emissions controls to reduce toxic emissions.
Those toxic emissions from large smelting pits of metal ore produce toxic acid rain with heavy metal content. Arsenic was sprinkled consistently all-around Tacoma by a copper smelting company that gave rise to the aroma of Tacoma, Washington State, USA. Arsenic is a toxic metal, and many thousands of tons of it were released by the open pit copper smelting, that rained down on all the soil for miles in every direction. Many people living in that zone that grew a garden with edible plants ended up getting arsenic poisoning from eating the plants, because the arsenic released ended up in all the soil nearby.
In the area around the unnamed Russian Nickel & Platinum mining area, is a closed city, as the air and land has been and continues to be heavily polluted continually by emissions from the mines smelting activities, while acid mine drainage has ruined the rivers, streams and lakes in that local; these are owned by a hyper wealthy Russian Oligarch, who is actively upgrading the metal smelter with emissions controls now to radically cut down pollutants emitted, so make the air quality better, and water quality better.
Pollutants like fine PM or particulate matter, are easy to understand when SMOG or heavy visible air pollution makes breathing more difficult, causing asthma rates to increase along with more lung cancer, COPD & worse like stokes, clots, earlier mortality or reduced life expectancy & worse. But many pollutants like dioxins are invisible and hard to detect or understand, like microplastics, or dilute hydrogen sulfide, or dilute clean burning gasoline engine vehicle emissions that still contain dangerous amounts of carbon monoxide not broken down by the catalytic converter, which are also sometimes stollen by criminals who seek the money from the value of the palladium, rhodium, platinum slurry coated ceramic honeycomb core of such devices that they jack up the vehicle and cut out, leaving the owner of such vehicles with a loud straight pipe and dash MIL lamp illuminated, because the downstream O2 sensor wire was cut and removed along with the cat.
Vision & Eyes & Occipital Lobe / Optic Nerve / Sensing Light with Eyes
Light pollution from screens of phones, TV, laptop, tablet, computer, lamps, lights, bulbs, causes sleep disorders or difficulty sleeping or staying asleep, because the light acts on the SCN part of the brain to regulate sleep wake cycle or circadian rhythm. In other words, light helps wake you up, which makes sense given how the Earth has a tilted rotation that gives rise to variable day length throughout the seasons of the years, given that the Sun relatively fixed location, and the Earth on its tilted axis takes about a year to orbit the Sun. The way the sun lights up the moon also tells you about the celestial location of the moon and sun relative to the Earth if you think about it.
We have two eyes that record around 7 MP in the Fovea of the Retina where sharp high contrast color imaging signals come into the brain via the optic nerve, send after crossing paths, back to the occipital lobe which is almost 1/3 of total brain mass in the back of our skull, where the brain is floating in a bath of cerebral spinal fluid and connected to the sensing organs and body with a high speed broadband like in body networking system call the CNS or central nervous system. Using other methods, we can see in flying spots, 30X per second, with about 10,000,000 to 1 contrast, 100 million colors, at about 150 MP or megapixels, if you scan and stare at something intensely.
To see the brain control eye movements, you have to use a high-speed camera, since eyes glance around at incredible speeds in the tear lubricated eye sockets, with eye lids that release a special kind of tear that keeps your eye from drying out more quickly. Vision signals from the eye get forward & back propagated in the brain, as vision is our most powerful sense. Thats why people are able to watch screens and perceive the idea that the 2D color slice images presented in rapid succession represent the 3D reality record or simulated in computers with many kind of digital image processing technology used for CGI or video editing in Hollywood, California, USA for example to make big budget sci-fi or action films like Ready Player One or Free Guy.
Sound Processing in Brain from Ear Signals
For all intents, taste in the mouth, nose, hearing & vision are all tightly connected to the brain since they are in the head near the brain. As sound pressure waves hit the ear lobes they are channeled or concentrated into the ear canal where hairs covered in ear wax help to keep bugs out, such that the Ear Drum sends electrical signals via moving the cochlea nerves to generate signals, moving inner ear hairs that generate nerve signals so we can hear sounds. Air is made of oxygen, nitrogen and water vapor and able to carry sound pressure waves from sources of sound to our ears, but those waves, just like the waves on a still pond of water that form when you throw a rock into it radiate away and dissipate, sound rapidly dissipate as distance from the sound source increases. Sounds from one side of a still body of water can be heard more easily on the other side because the still water acts like a sound mirror that helps to propagate those sounds over greater distances more effectively.
When we eat or drink, substances in the food or drink activate receptor on the tongue and nasal bulb, that generate taste, aroma, flavor signals, so the brain can use these to help coordinate digestion which is controlled by 11 billion neurons of the Human Gut, which is controlled by the brain. Thats why chronic stress can cause digestive problems. If we are stressed out, our brain sends stress signals to the gut, thinking perhaps we ate something poisonous, to force the gut to eliminate faster, causing diarrhea, loose or runny stool or water poop with goo in it.
I have such a problem because I am constantly stressed out over all the bad shit happening in the world, which can all be solved if people woke the fuck up and stopped wasting time doing pointless crap. Most of what people use their waking time to do does nothing to solve all the world's problems.
Most people are hopelessly stupid and self-absorbed or radically illiterate such that they can't even drive a car correctly or safely after thousands of hours of practice, since they prioritize playing with their smartphone while driving dangerously. Look at Russian Driving Accident Videos on YouTube to understand how stupid drunk drivers all sorts do of dangerous accident-causing bad driving poorly with low skill as imbecilic fools who should never be allowed to operate a motor vehicle of any kind, especially on roadways with other skilled motorists.
Then again radical income inequality in the world means that only 25% of human adults actually owns a car. I was astonished to learn this as an American as the only practical way to get around America quickly to actually be a working adult, is with a car, truck or SUV. Using the metro bus locally also means sitting next to smelly homeless people who have no hope of ever owning a car, since they choose to live under a bridge and not work. Now that might sound cold spirited since we know many homeless people are deeply mentally ill and using illegal street narcotics to self-medicate, usually not sharp with dosing such that many overdose on Fentanyl lately, when the previously used Heroin, or opioids with a much safer dose safety ratio. It's very easy to overdose with Fentanyl because it active at microgram quantities that look like a small grain of salt, where other street opioids require many hundreds of grains of salt worth to have the same effect.
Balance & Coordination, Muscle Control Thinking in Brain
Did you know that being clumsy actually indicates a brain problem, since the brain using eye hand coordination, such that people who become surgeons who played video games as children and teens and in college while studying medicine, such surgeon gamers have 27% better performance and lower error rates as surgeons performing surgery, because playing the video games for so long during their brains formatting into adulthood, radically improves their eye hand coordination.
Playing video games also tends to increase balance, as does playing sports or doing physical activities that require rapid muscle balance control, like playing basketball, hiking steep trails, skiing or snowboarding, surfing. Eating enough protein also essential to maximize adult brain functions. Avoiding too much sugar as an adult seems to prevent brain fog and other degenerative disease of the brain that harm older people who ate a mostly carb high glycemic index Standard American Diet or UPF junk as a lifestyle of also sitting around too much and not learning enough and never working out enough to build up a sweat, which also strengthens bones, joints, muscles and improves balance.
Easy for me to be an Arrogant Prideful Jerk
Many people who speak with me or read my blog think I am doctor, which is sad, because I am not, and understand medicine and physiology better than many doctors who legally practice on the public. My parents warned me when I was 8 years old that my life would be somewhat challenging because I was blessed by God with an insane level of understanding things easily that other people were not as lucky to get genetically.
I can speak to chemists, engineers, lawyers, doctors, other experts in software engineering in their field specific jargon easily to the point where they think I work in their field. How sad that Jeopardy winners are so rare, though I met many people way smarter than me in the Air Force that control military drones now but used to fly fighter jets, these men are also bigger, stronger, smarter and much nicer looking as superior examples of a mentally sharp, physically stronger, morally straight adult human American male elite :) English was my least favorite and worst subject all the way through school.
I hate grammar rules and the spelling rules in English are consistently inconsistent. There is a YouTube video called English is a Giant Meme that explains in great detail what I am talking about. Many people did predict and told me when I was a child that as an adult, I would go on to publish that was edifying to other people who read it. I read MSN articles and wonder if the writers smoke plastic as a hobby. How can so many people who work in publishing be so inarticulate?
I am not as intelligent as a I sound, there are huge holes in my understanding, I don't know very much overall compared to what could be know, the way God understands, I just put a lot of blood, sweat and tears into watching tons of documentary films, reading lots of encyclopedia, even the printed version as a kid, when even dial up internet was rare and computer at home had orange or green text screens running DOS as the operating system, and big 5 inch black plastic magnetic floppy disks that held and astonish 700 kilobits of data storage capacity. My parents had purchased a printed volume of the Encyclopedia Britanica on a shelf storage system that I spent a lot of my childhood reading. By 10 I was online using a computer that I built from parts, later upgraded to Windows 95 from 3.1 / to browse wed rings about high voltage and high energy physics, lasers and chemistry. It was this delta when high speed internet happened that my brain became hybridized with internet access fast enough to keep me learning new ideas faster than I was able to keep up with, even more so now.
