A humid Friday night in a Brisbane pub. Ceiling fans useless. Footy on the TV with no sound. Adam’s already two pints in when Anna walks in with a grin and a couple more. She drops them onto the table so hard the foam nearly jumps out. Anna: Jesus, mate, you look like someone just… Continue reading A start again

Canto III
We entered the deepest pit.No fire,only ice —the silence of betrayal. A grift of entrepreneurs sat there,lips locked in frost,humming their empty slogans. And yet above us,the world burned hotter.Each hum consumeda coal-train of power,each frozen tonguemelted a glacier somewhere else. A special genius,my guide whispered.Frozen in Hell,they escaped the fires above. That, said my… Continue reading Canto III

Steel towers, hearts crack,Profits bloom on burnt-out bones,What drives this unrest? Entropy moves through,Systems seek balance and form,Creation unfolds. Rivers choke on gold,Forests bend beneath the sky,Why does life bend so? Information flows,Matter aligns with the wave,Patterns shape without aim. Marble halls glimmer,Empty mouths whisper through dust,What is their true weight? Coin cannot measure,Energy and… Continue reading Haiku anyone

🌍 Scenario A: Status Quo (Minimal Transition) Assumptions: Continued reliance on fossil fuels. Incremental renewable adoption, but no systemic shift. Military and geopolitical spending remains dominant. Resource extraction continues at current or increasing rates. Timeline: 10 Years (2035) Global emissions still rising or plateauing. Critical minerals (e.g. lithium, cobalt) under severe supply pressure. Climate tipping points… Continue reading Interesting times
Time II
Another way to say it Time is the quality not a quantity, of the change in things. Hurtling through infinity. we measure a displacement. As receeding through time We begin to record, a constistent rate of change, as complexity increases. Time does not exist unless, things happened.
Time
whether it exists or not is a matter of choice Any change in state.Observation,is thought to take time.All it really takes,is the energy to change matter.And the space that allows it.Infinite everythingmakes time,a construct,of consciousness.Energy causes entropy, in matter.Change is directionlesswithout time.

Everything in the economy is created by fossil energy, as the supply dwindles the demand to consume pushes up the price, of everything. The demand to consume is a part of the dominant paradigm, which feeds on the illusion that all natural resources are free and infinitely substitutable. This is patently nonsensical but it has… Continue reading Simples
Does everybody know?
Everybody knows the scene is deadBut there's gonna be a meter on your bedThat will discloseWhat everybody knows We can see it coming, feel it working, approve our genius in harnessing it to do work, especially now as the cold northern winter or the (increasingly) warm southern summer approaches. In our general theory of evolution,… Continue reading Does everybody know?
Time
As to why one cannot travel in the meter or more precisely whether the action before the action caused the action? Before time immemorial there was not time but neither was there nothing, everything existed but without the potential to be anything else entropy was absolute. Energy came into this material existence embuing matter with… Continue reading Time

Evening, you are of course correct that the market, in itself, is simply an efficient medium by which to exchange, the work done by increasing entropy. Money, the medium of exchange, is now digital, existing as a construct. So what will you tell your child when they ask where monies come from? Is it like… Continue reading Theconversation II
