Stupid Club


Liberal ART

(not to be confused with the liberal arts:
them majors &  minors & capstone events
we  take courses in for our ab, ma,  & ph
degreed. )

“Neither logic nor sermons convince,”
says Whitman.

"Many disagreements in human affairs turn
not on differences in data or logic but on how
a problem is framed.

People disagree because they frame a problem
with a different metaphor and make a mess of
their lives because of the implications of these
frames, which [we] use without awareness."
(Steven Pinker: Stuff of Mind)

My belief & bias, prejudice & conviction
homeland security system is a comfortress,
impenetrable. I can’t even tweak it my own
self, let alone let anyone else fool with it.
Family jewels: intact and protected. Meta
Force be with me.

I can tell when a border has been broached,
breached, crossed, transgressed.     Hurts.
Emergency bells & whistles. Stunned stupid.
Stunning. Prerequisite for study & student-dom
