Gut doing gut things. Trying to get stuff done early. Usual process of processing the usual things. Getting through the things and thinking away the morning.
Thinking, slinging, doing all of those things.
Well, now that that’s out of the way it is time to engage in the banal. The banal is where the fantastic shall lie today and it’s all fantastically banal. It’s dull, dry, flat, all of those things.
Yes, I am already struggling.
So there’s this idea where, if you have an idea you should write it down as soon as you can as a just in case. However, what if that cements it and locks in the idea in a certain way that lowers your chance of developing the idea in certain other ways? What if it doesn’t? What if the idea is meant to fade away and instead of letting that happen you have now brought it into being? What then?
But on a more serious note, ideas a good. Ideas are good to have and they’re good to think about and they’re also good to write down. They allow things to happen and thinking is a good thing, I think. Maybe it’s a bad thing but I think it is a good thing.
Yep. Really struggling.
Time to shift gears but there are no gears to shift as, as far as I am aware there are no gears in my body, though it really depends on how loose you are with the definition of gears. I wonder if, in the future where the development of mechanical beings gets so far that the idea of gears becomes a foreign concept. It’s quite possible that that form of development is already there; I don’t know as it’s not something I’ve taken much of an interest in over the years. However, it is something to think about.
How would the connections all function and how would the internal stuff all operate? Of course there likely is circuitry, but would joints be more like ours and would there be a series of motors that allow for better manipulation and articulation? Are there a series of gears that help with motor control, but only to a small extent? Are there more gears than I would be aware of?
When do we reach a point where a mechanical being is considered a being? How do we measure that in a way that is not disrespectful? Just because there is a difference does not mean we should act as though another being is beneath us.
So anyway, I think that’s all I have for this morning. Stuff to do and all that stuff, and so I need to get on with it, but maybe I’ll think of ideas and all those things and then I’ll go from there. Maybe I won’t, but maybe I will. It’s all about just having to see and so I will see, or something. Maybe I won’t, but I certainly will think about something, I think.
The time it took to write five-hundred words: 08:34:05
This was something I had to force myself through a bit early on. Then at the end I struggled to find a way to end the rambling. I think between the start and end there’s something worth developing, but even through that there’s a fair bit of stretching, so to speak.
Written at home.
