While Wishing you a Blessed Weekend, and a Relaxing Sunday, I welcome you to This Topic of Everything (TOE).

 

Good Evening and Good Morning:

 

What is the TOE,...

EXACTLY?

 

The TOE, the Topic of Everything, can be defined as…

 

A Topic of Everything, or Final Topic, an Ultimate Topic, is a hypothetical and coherent Topic, where members can fully explain themselves, as well as Expound Upon all other Topics and/or Future Topics, in an attempt to link together All Aspects of Everything they have Known, or Ever Hope to Know, or Everything they Wish to Discuss (EKEHKEWD) about Thailand, and about Everything Else discussable.

 

Now we are in the middle of a weekend, and tomorrow will be a Sunday, if all goes as planned.

 

Therefore, please share your thoughts, and…EXPOUND!

 

All is fair game (within reason and forum rules, of course) under the sun, or above it.

 

Regards,

 

Gamma G.

 

Note: Enjoy the View from Hubble's Deep Field Observatory...

I agree.

 

And, also, I would like to add that I have been concerned, of late, that Leon, my fellow alumnus, may destroy our Dark Sky with his Starlink Project.

 

Do you think this will happen?

And, are you, too, concerned about this likelihood?

 

Our Dark SKY is important for Humanity, even more than Musk might realize.

 

 

Here are some of the ways that loss of our dark sky might impact Science!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

"The time has come," the Walrus said,
"To talk of many things:
Of shoes—and ships—and sealing-wax—
Of cabbages—and kings—
And why the sea is boiling hot—
And whether pigs have wings."

Sundown dazzling day

Gold through my eyes

But my eyes turned within

Only see

Starless and bible black.

 

 

Nothing.

So few in this modern world even know there is a night sky to protect. When not looking at their screens, they look up to see a street light.

Years ago, I spent much time worrying about Larson, and wondering what kind of childhood his must have been.

I think it must have been a wonderful childhood.

His perspective on life may not be as unique as one might imagine.

'But what's with his fascination with cows', I often asked myself.

I just wish that more young people, today, would learn to grind their own telescope mirrors.

Maybe then, after all the hard work, and so many hours of grinding, they would value and respect our Dark-Sky, that much more...

This world needs many more young kids like this one.

He is very well-spoken, and his narration of his project is well done, even getting into the theory of mirror making.

 

I just wish I could have told him to use a 55-gallon oil drum (empty), because, when grinding inside the house, all the abrasives, such as silicon carbide, etc., can be washed down the opening in the oil drum...no fuss, no mess.

 

And, the oil drum, filled partially with water, provides a very stable base on which to do the grinding of the mirror.

 

(Also, this young man is using a single glass blank. Using two blanks is better, or maybe just my opinion. But this means that you need to pay for two glass blanks. And you end up with one mirror and a blank which you then discard.  Glass blanks from places like Corning Glass are expensive.)

The topic of "everything" is a vast and complex one that encompasses the entirety of existence, knowledge, and experience. It's a philosophical and metaphysical concept that has been explored by thinkers, scientists, and scholars throughout history. Here are some aspects and perspectives related to the topic of everything:

1. Existence and Reality: When we talk about "everything," we refer to the totality of existence and reality. This includes the universe, all matter and energy, and any potential parallel or alternate realities.
2. Philosophical Considerations: Philosophers have pondered questions related to everything for centuries. What is the nature of reality? What is the purpose of existence? Is there a meaning to everything, or is it all random?
3. Cosmology: In the field of cosmology, scientists study the origin, evolution, and eventual fate of the universe. Understanding the universe is an attempt to comprehend a significant part of "everything."
4. Metaphysics: Metaphysics deals with questions about the fundamental nature of reality, including the existence of abstract entities, the nature of time, and the concept of causality.
5. Quantum Mechanics: In the realm of quantum physics, scientists delve into the behavior of subatomic particles, revealing a bizarre and complex world that challenges our understanding of reality.
6. Religion and Spirituality: Many religious and spiritual traditions offer their own interpretations of everything, often positing the existence of a higher power or ultimate reality.
7. Consciousness: The study of consciousness is a fundamental aspect of understanding everything. It involves exploring the nature of subjective experience, self-awareness, and the mind's relationship to the physical world.
8. Information Theory: Information theory deals with the quantification of information, which is a fundamental aspect of everything. It explores concepts like entropy, data, and communication.
9. Multiverse Hypotheses: Some theories in physics propose the existence of multiple universes or a multiverse, expanding the scope of "everything" beyond our observable universe.
10. Ethical and Moral Considerations: Discussions about everything often touch on ethics and morality. Questions about right and wrong, good and evil, and the purpose of human existence are central to this aspect.
11. Art and Creativity: Artists and creators often explore the concept of everything through their work, expressing the human experience and the mysteries of existence in various forms.
12. Technology and AI: As technology advances, artificial intelligence and machine learning are attempting to simulate human intelligence and understanding, contributing to our exploration of everything.
13. Interconnectedness: Many philosophical and scientific perspectives highlight the interconnectedness of all things, emphasizing how everything is interdependent and part of a larger whole.

In summary, the topic of "everything" is a multifaceted and profound concept that touches on nearly every field of human inquiry, from philosophy and science to spirituality and the arts. It represents our quest to understand the nature of existence, reality, and the universe itself.

no. I am more concerned about my family and their illnesses and helping others keep the wolf from the door..

Although this Topic seems real, it may, as you say, actually be hypothetical in nature. 

 

But I believe it is real to all that read it, and especially to those who add to it.

you do it almost every thread you create. 

My thoughts courtesy the late Shel Silverstein:

 

"Nothing to do?"

 

Nothing to do? Nothing to do?
Put some mustard in your shoe,
Fill your pockets full of soot,
Drive a nail into your foot,
Put some sugar in your hair,
Place your toys upon the stair,
Smear some jelly on the latch,
Eat some mud and strike a match,
Draw a picture on the wall,
Roll some marbles down the hall,
Pour some ink in Daddy's cap---
Now go upstairs and take a nap.

What about the COW TOOLS cartoon? 

 

That one seems a bit more obscure than most. 

 

Your explanation? 

 

 

What do you call it when a person has not been given enough attention by their parents while growing up, so when they grow, spend so much of their time trying for the attention of others?

Disadvantaged. 

Dysfunctional.
