Colossal Statue of Zeus in the Ancient Greek City of Lebadeia - by Joseph Gandy (c1819)
Those who consider atheism a product of modernity should study history, especially (but not exclusively) of Ancient Greece. Take the case of a 5th c. philosopher Diagoras of Melos. He was branded an atheist after saying that since iniquity and injustice exist Gods don’t. In other words, he judged the Gods like other philosophers did before and after him. But unlike most Diagoras went even further since on top of slanderous words he committed other crimes. Most notably Diagoras used an idol of Herakles as firewood telling the God to perform his 13th labour by cooking turnips. A reward was offered for killing Diagoras but he managed to escape.

Every bit of moral or financial advice given to us by our parents or even grandparents means absolutely nothing in a world that's become so expensive and nonsensical that they'd have called you crazy for predicting it.

I pray for the post peat vapor canopy era to rejuvenate our tired bodies. Need to live up to at least 500. This short lifespan is unnatural.

I do think we’re at the end stages of this hard-mode dungeon and I like to look at it as a great opportunity to gain experience points. I think you ought to strive to become as much as you can be in a healthy and playful way.

Like many facets within our culture, the public house and the people of Britain can not thrive or survive without one another.

The art above and here is by Raphael Bagautdinov. He had a tragic life. Both his parents were killed by communists and he was seen as untrustworthy due to it. But that’s a story for another time.

I like his style a lot and think it fits folk horror tales he illustrated really well.

Atmospheric Speculations & Immortality

How people potentially lived for centuries:

Dr. Peat speculated a big factor to increased health and longevity at high altitude is the lower oxygen pressure and increased CO2 causing the so called “lactate paradox”. (R)

There’ve been examples of animals surviving for centuries because they’d been incapsulated in a very high CO2 environment.

Breathing pure oxygen lowers the oxygen content of tissues; breathing rarefied air, or air with carbon dioxide, oxygenates and energizes the tissues; if this seems upside down, it's because medical physiology has been taught upside down. And respiratory physiology holds the key to the special functions of all the organs, and to many of their basic pathological changes. (R)
- Ray Peat


There’s enough evidence to show that a little over 4000 years ago, during the previous vapor canopy, the atmosphere was very different: CO2 levels were over 3000 to 9000ppm compared to today’s 420ppm.

A few centuries ago the CO2 bottomed out at round 175ppm. (Plants die around 150ppm).
O2 levels used to be >30% but currently sit around 21%. (People start having cognitive issues around 19%).

So what was going on when the CO2 levels were over 3000ppm?

- Increased humidity
- No deserts
- Mega flora
- Huge animals
- Giant people
- Increased conductivity
- Increased metabolism
- Healthier & longer lives

What not many take into consideration is the increased atmospheric electricity at higher altitudes:
For every 1 meter you go up in the air, the voltage increases by about 100V and paired with higher humidity, interesting things happen. St. Elmo’s Fire is a good example.

We also know that negatively charged air, or ionized air has health benefits.

Now stack all of this on top of each other, including electrofield technology and a clear picture starts to form.

We can speculate that in such an atmosphere it would be difficult to kill someone, your metabolism would be so high, you could regenerate entire limbs.
A single breath would sustain you for ten minutes. Individuals would possess superhuman strength and significantly enhanced brainpower. Diseased bodies would need to be incinerated to prevent them from turning into soulless, zombie-like organisms. Genetic material in a bottle imbued with intention could grow homunculi… etcetera.

This is what things might’ve looked like in one version of the past and provides a glimpse into our future potential.

On folk horror

I love horror. In literature more so than in movies, mostly due to the lack of good folk horror adaptations. And it’s clear why. Short stories shared at night under the glow of the moon while listening to the children of the night are mostly short and always have a local aspect. It’s something that happened in your own village back when grandpa was still young. Adapting this into a feature film is a lost cause.
Folk horror is immersive and relatable, especially compared to something like cosmic horror. After all, how many people have been in space? But most have visited old towns or villages with decrepit houses and complete lack of street lights. This is where horror was born and I hope more people will apperceive the folk roots of their favorite stories.
A playful energy, sufficient energy, can make for a completely different experience and outcome.

Simply put; it's best to do things willingly in a pleasant manner so that they are sustainable.

Aus Richard Wagners „Der Ring des Nibelungen: Rheingold“ (1914) by Franz Stassen

„Was, mächtig der Furcht, mein Muth mir erfand, wenn siegend es lebt – leg' es den Sinn dir dar!“

Die Götter steigen auf Bifröst herab. Wotan und Fricka schreiten der Brücke zu: Froh und Freia folgen zunächst, dann Donner.

"What, mighty with fear, my courage has invented for me, if it lives victoriously – let it reveal its meaning to you!"

The gods descend upon Bifröst. Wotan and Fricka approach the bridge: Froh and Freia follow first, then Donner.
