No Magic Monday this week

[ecosophia]

 I will be traveling to a speaking gig tomorrow and will not have internet access for most of the day, so there will be no Magic Monday this week. Tune in next Monday for a new round of questions and answers.

You should be able to use your smartphone to access the net.

just pulling your leg :)

No doubt, if I had one.

A smartphone, I mean. I have legs.

But can we pull them?

[ecosophia]

You can try!

Out of curiosity, what is the gig?

US government is seeking advice from JMG on future plans after reading his two operational manuals, I mean futuristic novels. They want to fast forward Retrotopia and for the whole country :)

I expect that to happen shortly after woolly mammoths go figure skating on the glaciers of Hell.

A Masonic lodge in Boston asked me to come up and do a talk about the remaining traces of the old medieval stonemasons' lodges in modern Masonry. I've given the same talk to other lodges -- it's nothing worldshaking, but it's interesting and popular. So I spent an hour on the train, a couple of hours roaming around Boston (where I haven't had the chance to spend free time before), and then a few more hours hanging out with brother Masons. None of that was especially conducive to fielding questions online!

Donald Trump is looking for someone to play the role that some people (erroneously) ascribe to Dugin, vis-à-vis Putin. This'll give him depth, he thinks, if he can have a thinker produce a doctrine that can then be attached to his action. So he shops around for beardy guys, capable of "producing doctrine"!
1st day:
- So, you look the part, I'll give you that. I'm willing to put you on the payroll, if you can come up with something... Something that'll be called The 5th Political Theory. Title non negotiable.
- Oh, I don't know, really... I've got a paper on Catabolic Collapse, if you want ? It may precisely help your action, see ?
- No, that's, that's... No.

And that was that.

Hope the gig goes well! Anything juicy? :-)
