"Religion, right, ethics, and everything spiritual in human beings, is merely aroused. We are implicitly spirit, for the truth lies within us and the spiritual content within us must be brought into consciousness."
Hegel, Lectures on the Philosophy of Religion: The Lectures of 1827, p. 161

A #recollection - a story, if you will - that doesn't have a particular purpose. I'm not trying to influence you to think something in particular, just relating something I thought about recently.
Many years ago, towards the end of my senior year in high school, the #school day had just ended and I was getting a ride home from a friend. I was in the passenger seat of his car, on a beautiful late-spring day, and had just fastened my seat belt as we prepared to leave the parking lot.
Three guys were walking by in front of the car. One, "J", was a guy I'd been #friends with in elementary school, but fell out of contact with in high school. I don't think we'd talked or interacted in years. He had no reason or motive for what followed, except perhaps #peer pressure from one of the other two guys. *That* guy was a former friend who disliked me because I'd #dated his #sister for a while. He'd spent much of the last year slagging me off to anyone who would listen, and I have no doubt he influenced Former Friend J.
As they walked by the front of the car, J stared at me and #flipped me off. I laughed and did the same back to him. They stopped, he came around to my side of the car, and sucker-punched me through the window, breaking my #nose. My friend drove me to the hospital a few blocks away, where the doc straightened it - I'd broken it before, as a kid, so this actually made it better.
Today, it would probably result in #police etc. Then, it was "just kids". #Weird.

A quotation from Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
Memory is a net; one finds it full of fish when he takes it from the brook; but a dozen miles of water have run through it without sticking.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809-1894) American poet, essayist, scholar
Article (1858-10), “Autocrat of the Breakfast-Table,” Atlantic MonthlySourcing, notes: wist.info/holmes-sr-oliver-wen…

If you ask your mother whether she knew about Peter Pan when she was a little girl she will say, “Why, of course, I did, child,” and if you ask her whether he rode on a goat in those days she will say, “What a foolish question to ask; certainly he did.” Then if you ask your grandmother whether she knew about Peter Pan when she was a girl, she also says, “Why, of course, I did, child,” but if you ask her whether he rode on a goat in those days, she says she never heard of his having a goat. Perhaps she has forgotten, just as she sometimes forgets your name and calls you Mildred, which is your mother’s name. Still, she could hardly forget such an important thing as the goat. Therefore there was no goat when your grandmother was a little girl. This shows that, in telling the story of Peter Pan, to begin with the goat (as most people do) is as silly as to put on your jacket before your vest.
Of course, it also shows that Peter is ever so old, but he is really always the same age, so that does not matter in the least.J. M. Barrie (1860-1937) Scottish novelist and dramatist [James Matthew Barrie]

I’mma Trekkie. All my life.
I gotta say thank you and also admit that I’m embarrassed ss a result of spreading that falsehood for prolly two decades. It was based on my direct recollection that our minds shape within us as we add and recall various experiences in life.
Let me take this opportunity to say, “Fuck your therapist” too, for had you cited, S1:E18 TNG I would have been awkwardly embarrassed, outraged at myself, and thought you a dikhed for thrashing me publicly. You are too kind, and a statesman in trekkering (if that’s even a freaking word, lolz).
Because of your subtle pointer, not pointing to the episode itself butt to the provenance of the saga’s chronology, I took your queue and went to the sources at StarTrek .com, Etc., and did my due diligence.
“Home Soil” was in fact the episode with Captain Picard and crew, and Ugly… Ugly giant bags of mostly water was the actual line converted over communication links off the Enterprise obo the:
- Crystal life form (wikis)
- Microbrains (IMDb, but I think this is wrong)
- Crystalline Entity (something from my own recollections, but I think I may be conflating with another episode again)
In the second utterance, where the quote comes from, it’s:
“Ugly bags of mostly water” which is kinda fucked up if you’re the ugly bag and you think you’re the bees knees of the universe, lolz.
Anyway, I need to go back and watch the episode again and regain my clarity.
From one Trekkie to another, thanks for the nudge in the right direction, fuck your therapist (again, cuz your instincts were better than his/hers), and here’s some personal questions, stuffs, I have for you…
My all time fav episodes:
- The Balance of Terror (S1:E14 TOS - 1966) - Romulan Captain played by the same actor (Mark Lenard) as Sarek in later episodes, series (like TNG), and movies, through s few franchises.
- The Inner Light - after either ten minutes or a whole lifetime, Picard returns to his cabin to play a flute bestowed upon him by a strange probe of remembrance of a people past, and sadly, extinct - he carries with him their hopes, loves, and dreams, the rest of his natural days, as a complete life experience.
- Don’t fuck this up coz I’ll gig your ass, lolz - What we’re Captain Kirk’s last words?
- Another major fav of mine is TNG’s, “Yesterday’s Enterprise” who’s Captain had even more balls than Captain Janeway, who in turn, had more balls than Captain Kirk, lolz.
As my profile and contact info clearly states, I’m a FOSS and Privacy Advocate, shoulder that mantle quite seriously, and even though I thought him initially to be a dweeb write in, came to appreciate Will Wheaton as Wesley Crusher and note that it was not one of our finest hours when we let the destructive child snimals out of their respective cages to drive him from the Fediverse - yeah, I was there when those teenage pieces of shit did that to him - even @Gargron , who held great sway back then, couldn’t contain or filter those 💩’s.

You have a wonderful day, evening, or afternoon, whatev time it is where you’re at and thanks again for the gentle bump to fact check myself with this errata.

A quotation from Martial:
«««««
A good man can expand his life: he lives
twice over whose past life can be enjoyed.

Vivere bis, vita posse priore frui.]

A prevalent implication about #recollection nowadays has been first asserted by Bartlett back in 1932 that by creating new ideas in the process of trying to remember, we can never precisely recall an old memory as well, that any ‘retrieved details actually become surprisingly unreliable’ and by our effort of getting them back to the forefront, we necessarily distort what was once there.
Language's imperfect, that your mental processes will differ slightly from how you recorded them.

Thor sent this root vegetable special from New York City after attending Maira Kalman’s holiday sale. Weirdly wonderful, stored it in the fridge not sure exactly how to preserve it outside of a photograph. In hindsight I wonder if it may have found a forever life sealed in acrylic like those dandelion paperweights (see image below).
Recollection
This was post was published on December 16, 2023 after my morning reflection.
Just off the telephone with Thor after asking him if this was a beet, radish or rutabaga. That detail was inconclusive but we had a lovely conversations about:
- The fact that he popped into Maira’s 2024 Holiday Pop-up today.
- Her son’s Mmuseumm
- The tableware used in nice restaurants featured in this CBS Sunday Morning segment
- A conversation and cookbook with Daniel Humm
- My upcoming birthday
- Holiday plans
- Adding Auntie Mame (1958) to my watch list
