Ok, we are going to try to rebrand the Metaverse into the Humanity Assembly - or at least a part of it. This actually stands a chance at maybe 15% but Mark must be looking at a way to make it work.

Now, this makes too much sense as a place for a worldwide vote and reason for being which is the Positive Mandate for Humanity and that new Global Social Contract. Now watch it all fall on deaf ears.....

Or get stolen, but if it tanks again with me involved m, he can blame it on me - there is always that!

15% for what's at sake - I'll take it and run with that first.....

Goodnight.....

Well, it has started:

Super busy.

There are literally mountains of receipts to add up. That and being old (the exemption is bigger) should help me out with the taxes - we shall see.....

Work on the Meta package has started. Don't hold your breath but the actual play is worthwhile.

New music is on its way but officially we say nothing until it shows up at iTunes (usually the first).

Goodnight.....

I'm stuck in a service centre replacing my dad's license plates. I truly dread this stuff as it takes forever and reminds me of Cold War communist lineups.

Anyway, things keep moving ahead otherwise. I am impatient but the world does not care. We all think we have some effect in the world but really we don't. The only way you do is by luck and happenstance if you actually have some ideas and it all comes together somehow. This is why I play the luck and probability games when doing this stuff. Don't flatter yourself with your own personal power to change the world. Luck is a bigger probability to your dreams than willpower. That is a reality you have to deal with.

I don't have to understand luck and happenstance to be able to manipulate it - if it infact exists - understand that. I can drive a car without knowing how the engine and transmission works. It is what it is.....

We have no control but luck and happenstance (being prepared for luck and being at the right place at the right time is how you score) can present opportunities if you are ready to take advantage of them.

Goodnight.....

One thing I have found as we worked up our way up that ladder of advocacy is that the people who run the world are just ordinary people. Many got their chance - not by merit, but simply because of socio-economic status (money) and connections. Merit never enters the equation most times. I was within a few feet of them at they trotted out to make speeches at the UN, screwing up their lines and all that. Trust me, the people - world leaders - who have such determination over your life, walk around with their fly open, walk into poles and all the rest. I thank the people whom gave me access to these rare events to see exactly how the world works and empower me by the experience!

It is good that people always think that to gain such positions they have to be better than we are - but they are not. The people of ability who can change the world are people probably right beside you in your everyday life.

For me I wanted to right the wrongs of my past and in doing so make the world a happier place which gave rise to the Positive Mandate for Humanity. My advocacy was upwardly mobile and with the ideas and drive allowed "others in the machine" to help open doors for me to get into the game internationally. Others would actually summon you to their office and tell you bluntly how it all works and let you do you.....

To do what I do you have to go from the position that there is no god - at least not one the way it is traditionally thought of. God won't save you if you fuck the world up. Nice aliens won't come down and save us. It is all on us, people in communities everywhere - and - if some have abilities to make things better for everyone, then they are under a moral imperative to do so - just as I have always told you.

I'm lucky. I took business at Ryerson and philosophy at York. I even took a year off in between to consolidate my ideas so I would not be swayed or limited by what I learned in the philosophy education. I started with anthropology and then physical anthropology. Then neural anatomy as I had to understand how our brains worked and then mental functions and different ways of thinking and perceiving the world. I wrote it all down, binders of ideas.

I took a few years after that to try out marriage and maybe a family. That fell apart so back to my "Man of the Word" fantasy now sort of turned into reality. Hanging around the United Nations and those people in Power and leading scientists and writers and all of that - and having them ask you to explain things sitting beside them at meetings - well - it emboldens you to take the initiative and push your own ideas for the betterment of humanity on the world stage.

Me at the UN, a learning curve of sorts!

Oh, and if you think I made that up about people with all kinds of degrees and accolades and high positions asking me to explain stuff - yes it is true!

Things went fast for me as I should be dead of old age by now but we Alis are long lived and I may see things through from start to finish which in reality is really rare BTW.

So there you go - in a nut shell, that is my position and why I'm doing what I do.

In Other News:

Lucifari's latest song has started showing up, first on Spotify, then Amazon Music. Usually it's YouTube Music and iTunes. So I'll be checking to see when it hits all the big distributors and then we will officially release it through the label.

Goodnight.....

Saturday is personal tax day and it helps that it is a rainy day.

Also, I'm satisfied with how the organizations are setup since the beginning of February. I now have the options I needed.

Goodnight.....

The taxes are done - it took the weekend but the personal taxes are: Done!

So for this round I have eight corporate taxes in Canada (for the CRA ) and four corporate taxes for the IRS with my personal taxes and companies in there. That is never ending insanity but the goals are good.....

A walk around the mall on Sunday and looking at my guitar collection and that is the weekend for me . The family stuff is in there but I keep that out of this blog of sorts as it has little impact here.

The single "Go Alone" gets released tonight which is Monday in England as I dislike Sunday releases. I was wondering what happened to iTunes and found out it's not in the Canadian Store? It's all worldwide releases! Anyway it's there now but really?

I was watching some movies and parts of Chronicles of Riddick. The ending reminded me of The Governor in The Walking Dead. In Riddick, all the dude wanted was revenge from the man who lead the evil cult in the film. He gets his revenge in the end but killing the leader of this cult means he becomes its leader. I smile when success for him means everyone is lost and inches around him as their new leader and bows to him. He doesn't want this in any way shape or form. Similarly The Governor in The Walking Dead was a ruthless leader of a group and went a little crazy and took off eventually starting a family and liking it - then he's expected to become a leader again and hates it but to save his family he has to take over and tells the current leader he's replacing that he doesn't want it! This is true as he really does not want it again, but to keep his family safe he is compelled to do it.

The reason for the rant above is that it is not a given that we should all want to be the leader. It's actually a crappy job and ages you - but - if you have ideas, if you have a goal for the group - then you want the job. If I became ruler of the world - I'm not lounging on some chaise lounge having some half naked woman feeding grapes to me one at a time! No: I have all sorts of ideas to make the world a better place and my ideas do not impact those that disagree with me - yes, I'm not forcing my vision on anyone that disagrees. It's a new layer of interaction separate from the traditional ones. These ideas have a chance and I want the chance to make it happen!

Now it's back to the Meta advocacy and we shall see what happens there.....

Goodnight.....
