The people who genuinely believe they are already dead

Fernando Kaskais

Photographs by Eunice Adorno for Matter This terrifying disorder turns people into zombies, into living, breathing ghosts; they believe they died, or never existed. And somewhere in their brains may be the key to human consciousness. By Erika Hayasaki I’ve come to Mexico City to find the real walking dead. Glancing around the courtyard of the walled-off National Institute of Neurology and Neurosurgery, you might think this place is filled with them. Two dozen patients chew and pick at their lunches of yellow chicken legs and bread rolls, while others slump listlessly around a courtyard. Some are catatonic. Blank. Others … Continue reading The people who genuinely believe they are already dead

Follow Your Intuition No Matter What

Fernando Kaskais

  by Carol Morgan   We all have these two distinct sides of ourselves that often compete with each other. For example, I have two distinct sides to me: (1) the extremely logical side, and (2) the emotional/intuitive one (note that I didn’t say “extremely” on the latter). While I have spent most of my life letting my logical side be in the driver’s seat, I have had to learn force it into the passenger seat…and sometimes even completely out of the car so my intuitive side can drive. It’s not easy. And I still struggle with it. The Importance … Continue reading Follow Your Intuition No Matter What

Hacking the Brain

Fernando Kaskais

Álvaro Domínguez How we might make ourselves smarter in the future by MARIA KONNIKOVA The perfectibility of the human mind is a theme that has captured our imagination for centuries—the notion that, with the right tools, the right approach, the right attitude, we might become better, smarter versions of ourselves. We cling to myths like “the 10 percent brain”—which holds that the vast majority of our thinking power remains untapped—in part because we hope the minds of the future will be stronger than those of today. It’s as much a personal hope as a hope for civilization: If we’re already running … Continue reading Hacking the Brain

Chris Hedges: Make the Rich Panic

Fernando Kaskais

David Shankbone (CC BY 2.0) By Marcie Gainer Over at Truthdig, Chris Hedges writes an impassioned call to action: “destroy the system.” Maybe it’s time… Chris Hedges writes at Truthdig: It does not matter to the corporate rich who wins the presidential election. It does not matter who is elected to Congress. The rich have the power. They throw money at their favorites the way a gambler puts cash on his favorite horse. Money has replaced the vote. The wealthy can crush anyone who does not play by their rules. And the political elites—slobbering over the spoils provided by their … Continue reading Chris Hedges: Make the Rich Panic

ARGUING THAT YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT THE RIGHT TO PRIVACY BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE IS NO DIFFERENT THAN SAYING YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT FREE SPEECH BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SAY

Fernando Kaskais

SOURCE: WASHINGTONS BLOG Most Americans value privacy and oppose mass surveillance. The minority who don’t – and who think spying is okay because they have “nothing to hide” –  are grossly misinformed(and don’t know that spying is meant to crush dissent and consolidate power … not stop terrorism). Edward Snowden noted today in a Q&A on Reddit: Some might say “I don’t care if they violate my privacy; I’ve got nothing to hide.” Help them understand that they are misunderstanding the fundamental nature of human rights. Nobody needs to justify why they “need” a right: the burden of justification falls … Continue reading ARGUING THAT YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT THE RIGHT TO PRIVACY BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOTHING TO HIDE IS NO DIFFERENT THAN SAYING YOU DON’T CARE ABOUT FREE SPEECH BECAUSE YOU HAVE NOTHING TO SAY

Unprecedented mass die off as Pacific Ocean “Turning into a desert” off California Coast

Fernando Kaskais

By Mac Slavo | SHTFPlan “Ocean’s dying, plankton’s dying… it’s people. Soylent Green is made out of people. They’re making our food out of people. Next thing they’ll be breeding us like cattle for food. You’ve gotta tell them. You’ve gotta tell them!” It was the dying cry of Charlton Heston in the creepy 1973 film Soylent Green… and it could resemble our desperate near future. The ocean is dying, by all accounts – and if so, the food supply along with it. The causes are numerous, and overlapping. And massive numbers of wild animal populations are dying as a result … Continue reading Unprecedented mass die off as Pacific Ocean “Turning into a desert” off California Coast
