Satan hangs out inside unused power tools and appliances...just waiting for an unwitting soul to do something stupid.


Well, I thought it might be dirty so while it was running, I sprayed it off with a hose ....
It did some jig-bang thing and landed on my car and set it on-fire.



.. then I let it alone

You should have offered it some raw meat.

If it salivated, then you would have known it is time to move to another state...or country...or start praying...a lot.

You can filter out irrelevant information by telling yourself how irrelevant it is, this will let your brain know.



Wouldn't this be somewhat counterproductive? You aren't actively filtering anything out this way are you? You're actually placing it more into your own thoughts.

Try really hard to not think of blue zebras and that is all you will be able to think of.

You could take some LSD, which "...causes a random firing of neurons..." and thus create new and strange pathways



Are you sure its blue zebras and not blue dresses?


My head brain is thinking of blue zebras but my stomach brain is thinking of that one blue dress and the bacteria is putting some pretty strange ideas together concerning both blue dresses and zebras and bourbon drinking internet troll philosophers.

Also, what exactly are the qualifiers for having a better brain?

Is it how much we know? Is it the ability to reason? Is it how healthy it is? Its ability to empathize?

Does a healthy brain reason better? Ive bombarded my brain with various narcotics for more then 20 years, which means my brain is definitely not "healthy" and id match wits with anyone alive and probably come out on top more often then not... Considering how stupid most of the population is.


I think almost everyone ever born has probably not reached the full potential intelligence-wise that they could but i do not think you (an adult) can change significantly your brain's ability to reason... Which is really what counts when it comes to it.

I believe peace of mind would be in indicator of ideal brain function.

Peace of mind in what sense? Like as in an acceptance of who you are and what you do?

________________________________________

Peace of mind (in this context) is the absence of mental stress or anxiety/worry. (i.e., a calm, quiet mind despite the presence of stressors)

Peace of mind is a healthy state of being where the mind performs at an optimal level

By organizing our lives around maintaining peace of mind we can increase the potential for making correct choices; and making the correct choices increases the potential for taking the correct action; and taking the correct action increases the potential for a beneficial result.

If the preceding is correct, then it is not unreasonable to consider Peace of mind as a goal.

Peace of mind is best with flafla beans and a jug of chianty.

...As long as you don't use spell-check or gramma-check.
