The Daily Eris: Digital Exorcism

Ancient Vulcan Exorcism Ritual

Well, True Believers, sorry I haven’t been on in a few days…

…I’ve been “biden” my time!

The Daily Eris: Election Thoughts, 1

This is going to be an off-the-cuff post, as I’ve got a lot on my mind and apparently no appetite to distract me.

The Daily Eris: November Spawned A Monster

Vitam Impendere Vero

Motto of the Peithologian Society

I do hope all of you have had a lovely Halloween. I tend to spend the holiday in a more-or-less blissful drunken stupor; however, as I am not drinking alcohol at the moment, I merely used the opportunity to consolidate my recyclables.

The Daily Eris: Why Can’t I Just Write About Nice Things?

There are three things I have learned never to discuss with people: religion, politics, and the Great Pumpkin.

Linus

The joke being, in the above quote, that the Great Pumpkin is Linus’s religion. But he had always been somewhat spiritual, quoting Bible verses & whatnot. So have I, and whenever I start talking about the Great Pumpkin I lose a few social media followers. Well: lose a penny, gain a penny.

The Daily Eris: No F**ks Were Giveth

Good morning (afternoon or evening, depending what dot you’re at in the space-time-perceptual grid). One of the things that has become clear to me after 20+ fully adult (more or less) years on this planet is that I’m much better served being a “bridge” figure to others of different Reality Tunnel polarities than playing to one ideological side or another. Which is all to say: I’m a bit of a “liminal” figure, aren’t I?

The Daily Eris: This Book Must Not Be Destroyed

Greetings. The most immediate impression I get of the Collective at the moment is that a rather large set of people in the U.S. are living in two completely different Reality Tunnels.

Furthermore: I frankly do not feel myself to be comfortable residing solely in either Tunnel. But I never really did.

The Daily Eris: This Magic Moment

The control of anxiety has to ultimately be a spiritual discipline, the cornerstone of which is Faith.

Me

On this day in 312, Constantine the Great had his famous Vision of the Cross, though accounts of the exact chain of events & envisioned symbol vary. A few days ago, I had a dream that God was the late comedian Richard Pryor. Where is my religious cult? (The dream, of course, fits in with my overall belief that Jesus was actually far funnier than people give Him credit for.)

Moonology: Prominent Moon Syncs This Week

I wanted to give this topic a brief individual spotlight, as there is a lot to write in today’s Daily Eris & I didn’t want it to get lost. In short: this week started memorably with a trinity of prominent Moon-related items in the news, and will end just as memorably with some rather robust astrological aspects.

Why Dogma Sucks (Only An Opinion)

So I was watching this Robert Anton Wilson lecture on YouTube, and noticed there were a few “thumbs-down” ratings. Now, I’m not against criticisms of Wilson’s work and I’ve read several essays picking apart his writings before. But I was just curious about what specific objections these YouTube viewers had to his work.

The Daily Eris: We’ve Reached The Singularity, Congratulations

If some rando free app I heard from somebody on social media that plays sketchy ads for sketchy online games can effortlessly sew in my likeness in a reasonably convincing video clip from The Avengers...I think we’re done here. The Singularity has already taken place. I’m gonna go live in that artist’s hut right off the P-Town shore now.
