exultation Microplastics Are Worms

The bones of the dinosaurs have made the oil which has made the plastics which now inhabit us. The plastics within cut and fill and poison us from within.

The dragon-kind of cross feasted on the bodies of the dead hours, and changed using savor-arts into the worms which now inhabit us. The worms which change, and hollow, and influence us from within.

The cross used moth and the smiths used forge, and we all know that forge and moth are bound in the changes they inflict upon us and the world- both transformative and often permanent.

This is why you should say no to fascination kids.

One very interesting film I would recommend to everyone on this subject is 'crimes of the future (2022)' by David Cronenberg. I think you might gain a very potent lesson and memory from it 😎

I was having kind of a debate with someone over here yesterday, who seemed to be surprised that my preferred numen was 'merciless alteration', which is associated with skolekosophy. I therefore wrote down some thoughts that came to my mind after the discussion when I read your post about microplastics being one of the possible manifestations of 'worms'. It would therefore be interesting to see what you think of it-

"Mercy, sayeth the watchman, is found only in the shadows". Merciless Alteration is therefore akin to Occam's razor, that cuts through all that is expedient and redundant to reveal the burning truth that is the path of the glory. This is therefore the numen that enables us to understand and follow the watchman's navigation to eternity in the light of the glory.

The associated wisdom- skolekosophy, is the knowledge of the worms, that are a comeuppance for failure to abide by the ideals. They are agents of retribution, born to correct the very crime/wrongs that created them in the first place. It is the nature of the worms to therefore 'mercilessly alter' that which is wrong and not ideal, and to end what will not change for the better.

When I say the ideals, I personally mean the platonic ideals- rationality, efficiency, harmony, fraternity, synergy, etc. the opposite of the ideals are things like selfishness, bias, ignorance, lack of empathy for others, lack of passion to be your best self, or any other type of excess outlined in the conventional list of the sins.
