The Mind Parasite has Arrived in the German Student Population

2020-07-31

I've been criticizing for years the attitude of making racism socially acceptable by being racist against people with white skin color. Unfortunately, the mind parasite has spread, and I recently had my first written exam with this kind of racism.

Image from a German book about nature, from a short excerpt about a person who ostensibly smelled some plants and ended up with a scorpion nest in his brain.

Blast from the Past #4: The Girl Who Played with the Wolves

2020-07-25

A story I wrote when a (now former) friend of mine was ... under the spell of a rather shitty human being, and used me for balance. That story made me realize that it's sometimes better to let people ... fall.

No Ads, No Sponsored Placements

A comment for those seeking to use this site for personal gain: Given the increase in requests, let me be clear. I write on this blog because I want to. It’s my hobby, my playground. Sometimes people point me to interesting products/services and I write about them. But any request regarding ads or sponsored placements ends up the trash without a reply. And if you think something would be of interest, differentiate yourself from the spammers by referring to a posting — in an intelligent way. (I get enough auto-generated mails to identify them immediately.)

BTW, posts can get updated after I published them if I spot spelling errors (not a native speaker) or think a different wording might improve precision and clarity.

Filter Blog Entries & Categories

This blog is not focused on a single topic, or method. As long as it is relevant to improving creativity (or allowing it in the first place), it's fair game.
Some postings on this blog deal with freedom, as I think that we need freedom of thought, of speech, of association, etc. pp. to solve mankind's problems. Thus, some postings may seem a bit remote when it comes to organizing creativity. Freedom is, however, the bedrock of creativity.
The heterogeneity of the postings can make reading this blog a bit cumbersome, at least if you are only interested in one topic. You can either use the search function (above), or use the categories or the tags to narrow down the postings you see.
