Out of necessity because of the first snow of the year, I decided to spend 15 minutes shoveling the basic walkway of my side of the apartment building. This is partly selfish because I myself benefit from it, but it's an opportunity for me take a few more moments because I'm the one with the shovel in hand and I'm up early and have the effort to give to it, to do more than just the path to my own car.  It also happens to be way better than any exercise activity because not only do I get what my body needs in terms of physical activity, the work being done is useful to others in a very practical way. I'm not trying to paint myself as a saint. It happens to be a personal tool to escape the other stressful things in my life right now because it's something that I know how to do and no I can succeed at in a measurable time frame. It feels so good to do this. It's just an additional benefit that I can accomplish something that is useful to more than just myself at th...

The Tongan castaways were a group of six Tongan teenage boys who shipwrecked on the uninhabited island of ʻAta in 1965 and lived there for 15 months until their rescue. The boys ran away from their boarding school on the island of Tongatapu, stealing a boat in their escape. After a storm wrecked the boat, they drifted to the abandoned, remote island of ʻAta and managed to keep themselves in good order for the duration under the circumstances. Long thought dead, they were discovered and rescued in September 1966 by Australian lobster fisher Peter Warner. -  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tongan_castaways The real-life Lord of the Flies kids | Rutger Bregman and Andrew Yang | Yang Speaks - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9XYB8tHAsSA The real-life 'Lord of the Flies' | 7.30 - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDz-331V-pY The real Lord of the Flies: what happened when six boys were shipwrecked for 15 months - YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DYebOCCoTYM

Psychological experiment https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VsyfQeSITww I find these kinds of experiments interesting because they are designed to reveal things about unethical human behaviour... but they often don't talk about the fact that the experiment itself is designed to evoke an unethical response. This experiment, for example, shows how a person displays no response to an alarming situation when others are present who don't react to the situation... but the experiment intentionally designed the conditions to be unethical by planting "unethical" people in the environment and ensuring that the one innocent person was the only one who didn't know it was an experiment. What I take from this is that when a normal person is placed in an unethical environment, their ethics can be affected by that. The concept of ethics is simple... but being able to BE ethical when placed in conditions that are NOT takes an enormous amount of strength. If a person has even the slig...

A favorite video of mine ( What is Bootstrapping? ) came to mind this morning because of a conversation I had yesterday about the concept of people who would be considered "underdogs" of society... those who are below the line of survival and struggle to make ends meet. The video is about the computer industry's use of the term bootstrapping , but it refers to the origins of the term which, for me, generate even more interest because I find it valuable for understanding humanity. The entire self-help movement is based upon the bootstrapping concept. The problem with this is that it's use of the term is a false interpretation of it's original meaning. It was meant to refer to something that is impossible. In other words, the inspirational view that the self-help movement advocates is impossible and therefore a delusion. Self-help is literally impossible. "Early 19th century US; attested 1834. In original use, often used to refer to pulling oneself over a fenc...
