AMAZING! One of yr finest, Mimo!

The evolved perfection & complexity of The Natural World continues to take my breath away.....it both thrills and humbles me, often in the same moment.

All creatures R simply BRILLIANT!

And these.... don't even have 2 buy gun powder or bullets!!!!!! Or download MP3 files for the soundtrack!!!!

Neat little weapon it's got there.

Go The Power

Amazing

There are many things amazing about nature, just look at us as humans. This isn't anything special. It is quite cool, but we are more cool! Us FTW! heh.

Ariesjill

....and PERCUSSED. Which, if not a word, is.....now.

kinbard

What's the definition?

Ariesjill

no.....every living creature is equally breahttakikng in its complex, evolved perfection. If humans invest in arrigance short of this.....that is The Problem.

U study retroviruses and their briliance and dadaptive ability.....U get goosebumps. Just study dung beetles. Focus on any given species.....start with orchids. Sumthin.

And also remember we R the only speciesa so unplugged from the perfectiOn marking all beings---THOUGH this is ot true for all of us.....we even CAN WREAK HAVOC ON THE PLANET and that perfection of which wse R one small part in potential! AND NOW....PERHAPS TO THE POINT OF NO RETURN.

Unless and until we get this.....it is the black ribbon swe earn and no way the blue one.

Joefireline

We are more adapted that them, we can survive better than them. Because we are better adapted/evolved. Then we become stupid (like, now) and start killing eachother because we get over populated, and we all die off! Yay! Piece! Heh.

But it is all just about adaptation, it all fits in, they don't start of perfect, they don't end perfect, but they improve.

But anyways, please, so that I know what you are talking about, and so that is doesn't take me and everyone else 5 hours to read your posts, type in English! Please!
It may save you a few minutes, but it takes me hours to read your posts! Nothing affensive here, just I know you can type in proper English.
It's to the point where I try to avoid reading your posts! I want to read them, I just can't! Bah!

Sorry, back on topic, ah yes, Pistol shrimp, odd.

Ariesjill

If U think WE R more more adapted than any other species....I understand why U feel my posts R in some foreign language. Which they R clearly not.

Being able to tamper with the planet does not mean we R more ADAPTED. The propensity/CAPACITY to do this, Joe....owes to being estranged from our place in The Natural World and being able to experience the perfection which marks all beings.

Consider that....if nuclear holocost is manifested by PMSed, unplugged humans .....there will be organisms, far more ancient than we....who will survive. Now THAT.....is evolved adaptation. But OURS....will not be among those species.

Without knowing the technical name....as they R always moot....I have morphed into wut is called a Pantheist.

Again, I am not the cause of yr PMS.....try to remember that, there will B no downside, and it is an objective piece of data.
I don't engage in furious, dimnished ego-based isometric struggles in which there is no real dynamic or upside.
Nor.....as a seeker do I evah, evah shoot the messenger. Nobody does any other being a favor....by dumbing down. No exceptions in this.

Hope U R moved to ponder.....as I (again) don play this. Identify wut is gong on inside and why....U will not B sorry.

Final statement(should B obvious): People pay me serious money 4 seeing and communicating. Both verbally and in writing. I earned (and continue 2 every day) all of this. Always....in my native language, English. There R no shortcuts. And that....is a Good Thing.

I have learned a great deal in the last year, since joining this community....sometimes directly from others, often from myself in interaction with others....and hopefully, also sometimes have the privilege of contributing in similar ways.

Joefireline

Jill, I understood the last 4 lines of what you wrote there, the other part, I can't understand half of... Sorry, I just can't have a debate with you, when you type how you are. If you re-write everything to how you wrote the last 4 lines, I will carry on with the debate/discussion.

kinbard

Jill, I had no idea you could write this clearly. All this time I thought English was your second language. Why don't you write like this all the time?

Ariesjill

Joseph....I can not help U in this, and if I could, there would B no upside for either of us.


Am starting to think the new Satan might be texting and that it truncates peoples' brains or sumthin. I think about this, I do.

I just read my last post and am not sure wut part of it is unclear. To me, it appears normal exposition.

Ariesjill

I do....now, stop embarrassing yourself and inadvertently celebrating being often stuck, forget then combative as a result of this.

There R only upsides to cherishing being challenged by those who maybe violate our comfort levels/zones...both the latter meant to be expanding for a lifetime. True even in pre school. Now get in gear, babe.....and first, look in the mirror/within when discomforted and then, with alacrity, need 2 feel the is issue The Other. Embrace that it may B YOUR ISSUE. Explore that.

I wonder wut kind of books and periodicals U read????? OK, that was rhetorical. I don't wonder. I know. Maybe too much Playstation and not enuff PROUST...high end, rich literature or exposition? How do U challenge yourself with sense of joy and adventure, video games? Sports playoffs?
U think these qualify?

I refuse to accept that my premises/expectations of my fellow members in this site. (or all other arenas).....were/R too high. Nobody who believes in, celebrates the potential of individuals could do this. And I am such a person.

Recently was moved to address the singular Sean Connery in a thread here. Reason he is so singular, he came from the slums of Edinburgh......entirely self taught, he recognized the limitations of his origins early on.....began to educate himself to realize his real abilities....he started by reading Proust.

Life ain't about getting wut U want, or games or the shortcuts which, thank God, don't exist.....it's about each day....having the thrill of becoming a little more.....who U really R. We harvest....wut we earn.

Re language. There was, alas, a time....in HS and college.....when I was fluent in French...though my undergrad degree is, of course in English.. Thereafter, having nobody to converse with, it got gone....also my bad I stopped reading such as Sartre in French. I regret this. Understand it, but regret it. Just another thingy we can learn from.

Ariesjill

Sorry, just saw this 2 secs ago.

Wut do YOU think the Def is???????

Truth is, U did not think at all. Is The Problem.

Get this: the language is alive....a "living", metamorphosing entity. it is musical, it becomes impacted by the motion which marks all life and all cultures. Each newedition of high end dictionaries includes new words.....evolved often from cultural richness, from colloquial usage, from the arts.....from pop culture. and each is also missing many words which become anachronistic!

I have posted this before somewhere in here: there is a fabulous woman whose lifework and passion is to track these phenomena! She is delightful and fascinating.

Now, I am taking a new approach in this post. To help U start yr engine....I am not responding by insulting U by telling U the obvious in response to yr question. I am being, wut is called SOCRATIC.....IN HOPES THAT ENGINE WILL NOW TURN OVAH. And many things will become obvious to YOU ON YOUR OWN, over time as U restore yr sensibility. U only got one; U let it atroph---foget get defenswive about that atrophy.... U can't replace it using anything WD makes, OK? Or Seagate.

But one....is all u need.

I am trying to ignite U.....and free U from quicksand which is OK in a swamp.....but no way in living beings. I will no longer buy U fish....but rather try to teach U to fish. Classic analogy, that.
My editors, of course... celebrate this in my work....that I often turn a noun into a verb, etc.

Now, wut is the etymology of the word I evolved? How does it emerge from the reality of the shrimp and the above chronology of posts? Which post does it follow directly?

U may also B moved, given, with search engines at yr fingertips.....being stuck n any way is increasingly shamefujl.......2 Google such as "Socrratic Method."

Use it....or loose it. Even happens to small children.

OMG I just got this! Perfect example of wut I have taken the time to share above, the word GOOGLING.

Now in DICITONARIES, Ok? Technology in this case....impacting the Living Language. aAso that....a corporate identity, by dint of common usage.... became a VERB.

Surely, U see this, yes???????

Finis; U R now on your own.....as U should B.

Ariesjill

Post edit window addendum: I weakened.....cause I am always in MOTION & always moved 2 help....sometimes fosters atropy I just learned. Just learning to Google with sense of adventure, employing instinct and out of the box and not smply logic.....would be major ignition for yr engine.

This is my final offering re all of the above...a topic, as usual, with many fascinating levels and lateral & tangential compartments, all related.....this below. U bet, via Google AND Googling, BOTH THE NOUN AND THE VERB:

I am fascinated by all life forms, and oceanic life is simply out of this world.

I often wonder why the lower layer ocean life forms look like devils; scary and ugly. But who knows... as there isn't a scientific explanation that can hold valid in explaining this.
