Been reading Whitehead on Quantum Theory. It's over 100 years old, and it shows. Still, it provided food for thought regarding the fundamental behaviour of electrons.

talking metaphysical and mythical... what if this (PHYSICAL HEALTH/SURVIVAL OF WORLD/HUMANS) is what that (ETERNAL LIFE) meant? Perhaps not about individuals at all, or any post-body, ghost experience of eternity, but regarding eternity versus extinction for the #world #humankind #heaven #hell #doomed af #poetry #ontology

(hash tf outta these tags, mate), I'm #talking #metaphysical and #mythical... what if *this (see: #holistic HEALTH/SURVIVAL OF WORLD/HUMANS) is what Jesus meant by #ETERNAL #LIFE?

Just published: a systematic comparison of Graham Harman's Object-Oriented Ontology (OOO) with my own Conference of Difference (CoD) model.

Alexander Stepanov said Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) obscures process behind static objects. Does the same critique apply to Harman's OOO?

Does objectification hide the relational flow that actually constitutes being?

The Reality of Dreams

https://johnbronze.wordpress.com/2026/07/24/the-reality-of-dreams/

In some parts of the Western world, we're taught that jury-by-peer is a bastion of fairness, but what is a peer?

https://philosophics.blog/2026/03/27/ive-been-thinking-peers/?utm_source=masto&utm_medium=social

I suggest that this propaganda isn't all it's cracked up to be. I offer Nuremberg and Man in a High Castle as exhibits A and B.

Reality Happens Once. Facts Happen Many Times. After writing about 'The Trouble with Facts' yesterday, I realised that the polysemy of 'facts' introduces category errors. Not all facts are created equal.

The trouble with facts is that they cannot be directly observed.

Here's another awesome #cfp for your consideration: a workshop called "Methodologies for Imagining an Alternative Politics of (Human) Rights". It's on 12 June 2023 at #LSE Department of Gender Studies. Keynote: Prof. Nikita Dhawan (TU Dresden).
