Hellow🌻
I hope last week hasn’t been hard on you and if it has then my condolences. Life sucks so you start sucking harder. Giddy up.
As you must have noticed, I did a little revamp of this space. (No comments on how good or bad it is; it is what it is) This is the second weekend when I am writing consistently, so I thought I’d rather write with some thesis,

No matter how obscure the subject, if it can’t be explained reasonably well to a person of normal intellect then the explainer needs to improve their understanding!

According to the Google definition brain fart is a temporal mental lapse, where lapse is defined as a brief or temporary failure of concentration and I keep having them very frequently. A daydreamer one might say, but the subject of my daydreaming keeps coming back to the questions of ultimate meaning and the interconnections. Metaphysics.

So, BF is my effort to explain things to you guys in a manner that I see as simple and logical. Thus my thesis. I know you must wonder if these questions or subjects really pique your interest, but bear with me as I take you on this seemingly random but connected journey where I will ask you questions for which you will definitely not have answers, neither do I or anybody in the world (We all are just guessing).

My work recently has allowed me to wander in the realm of Brain and Counciousness(We still don’t know what this is). My random quest of searching for answers has led me to read more about biology, physics, cosmology, mythology, culture, humanity and metaphysics. So I’ve decided to write my inferences and share my ideas with you. The BF may or may not add value to your worklife but it will definitely add value to your life. (there was no point of writing this paragraph in quote format, I just thought it’ll keep you reading further - otherwise I would have lost you in 3rd paragrah itself)

I figured I need to lay some ground rules for you to understand my literature before we move forward.

  1. We disagree with Einsteins’ belief that ‘God does not play dice‘, until proven. After all, we all are just temporary assemblages of subatomic particles that are in constant flux (Accidental Universe)

  2. Logically, There is no God or higher entity beyond, that controls our world. (Although this does not mean that I am a complete Athiest, just like everyone else, I rely on god based on circumstances).

  3. We do not close the window of possibility, ever. Remember, Fundamental laws of nature can also change once we discover an anomaly. (Yes, Ghosts may exist and aliens may have visited the earth, more to this later). This kinda contradicts my first two laws but Meh!

  4. With all due respect to people, culture, religion, and emotions, we question everything and are comfortable with the possibility of more than one answer. (1+1=23 ? yeah we are listening)

  5. Everything in the universe is contextual and subjective. (For you multiverse is just Marvel movies, for me I do think there is a version of me in a parallel universe who has superpowers).

Sounds cool ? cool.

Since I’m just starting up, there may be some learning curve for me initially but promise you, I’ll get good at this. It’s the same idea as monkeys hitting strokes on typewriters and given enough time will come up with works of Shakespeare(Even if it takes them a million years by the Monkeys theorem).

For now, help me out for next week, I have the following Ideas. Tell me what sounds more interesting,

PS: Comment if you can think of something better.

DID YOU KNOW?

The average probability of getting heads or tails is not 50-50 or 1/2. It’s 50.8% for whichever side was up at the time of toss. According to the wobble theory, when you toss a coin, it spends more time up with the face it started with and thus has slightly higher chances of getting the same face-up. No kidding, they experimented to prove this. Read more of this here.

Lol, Someone go and tell this to my favorite cricket team’s captain 🥲

See you next week fellas!
