Das Leben aus sich selbst heraus verstehen

Eva, der Apfel und der Wurm, darauf folgt die Erbsünde, wie die Schlange im Paradies. Jene ist mythologisch positiv besetzt, wie Vogel und Flügel zusammenpassen oder Schmetterlinge die Vollendung der Raupen sind. Findet der Vogel den Wurm, schneller als der Fisch im Meer, schließt sich der Kreis. Denn zu Beginn der Zellteilung in Evas Leib nehmen wir zuallererst die Form eines Wurmes ein.

Okay just....just hear me out alright?

[ID: A human version of Holism leans against a doorframe with one arm upraised and the other holding the opposite side of the doorframe, it is wearing a tshirt that is riding up where its arm is upraised, exposing some of its hip. It is wearing jeans with tears and patches with band logos on them and has a belt chain. It has swept back fluffy hair and long eyelashes, its eyes are hooded and its smirking at the viewer flirtatiously. It has circuitry tattooed on its left arm and a geometric pattern on its right. /END ID]

Human!Holism is now chewing on my brain stem and I'm mad as shit about it. Headcanons under the cut.

It's a professor (has a doctorate but will not use the title Doctor) at the same college Peri teaches night classes at, its classroom is across the hall. It teaches various humanities and intro to economics and is generally considered a highly desirable professor because it's very enthusiastic about its subjects and also very invested in making sure you pass. Its the kind of teacher that checks up on you and maybe brings you a snack by way of treating the whole class if it notices you're hungry all the time. Just generally an actually good person. It is also arrogant and pushy and makes itself seem incredibly self centered while being honestly very occupied with everyone around it. It flirts with almost everyone, just an all around charming person.

It's openly poly and in a relationship with Professor Sum Total (Creative writing/English) and a semi-QPR situation-ship with Doctor Autopoiesis (biology/botany).

It has been hitting on Peri for like three years and Peri thinks it's just an insufferable flirt, but it honestly thinks Peri is cute. Sometimes they get into arguments right in the hallway. Holi thinks this is just another way to flirt but Peri actually gets deeply flustered and annoyed with it. Aphelion watched this happen a couple of times when it was in town picking Peri up for dinner and thinks it's the funniest shit it's ever seen.

I'm torn on if I want Sum Total to be an author/creative writing professor or if I want it to be an engineer

I want Holi to restore classic cars, but it doesn't actually keep or drive them it just restores them and sells it to but it's next project car

But it owns a 1969 Chevy Chevelle because it can't sell it. It bought it illegally modified for street racing and learned a valuable lesson about inspecting project cars before purchase. It keeps thinking it will rip out the nitro injector and actually restore it but then it moves on to another project. Peri is unfathomably jealous and Wants It So Bad, I Can Safely Drift a Schoolbus Can You Imagine What I Could Do With That. Based on a car my dad had for a while, hated that Chevelle it was a miserable ride.

Its daily driver is probably like a Honda Civic or something Auto has a Prius and is a certified plant parent, it's house is full of plant varieties and its yard is full of fruiting trees and edible plants. It pretends to find the neighborhood kids eating off the trees annoying but everyone knows that's just to save face Sum Total has the most tricked out house for Halloween. Like it's won awards.

I have more art but I'm still cooking it and lots of other ideas but I'm also trying to work on my actual fic and sobbing into my hands please someone send help I don't need this in my life right now

Book of the Day - Les Idées. Leur habitat, leur vie, leurs mœurs, leur organisation

Today’s Book of the Day is Les Idées. Leur habitat, leur vie, leurs mœurs, leur organisation, written by Edgar Morin in 1991 and published by Seuil. La Méthode 4, by Edgar Morin. In La Méthode IV, Edgar Morin continues the monumental task begun in the previous volumes: the reconstitution of knowledge through a complex epistemology that integrates science, philosophy, and anthropology into a…

The moment you think you understand love, it transforms into something else entirely. It's like watching a city evolve - each interaction between people creates patterns that shape future interactions, yet the whole thing moves and breathes in ways no single interaction can explain. Love operates as both architect and blueprint of itself: your small acts of care shape your partner's responses which reshape your tendencies, spinning out loops that transform both people into versions of themselves that couldn't exist alone. Yet the moment we map these beautiful feedback loops and emergent behaviors, we've somehow missed love's essence - as if describing a dance by listing the positions of feet without capturing the music. This is love's fascinating paradox: it follows the most predictable patterns while remaining fundamentally unpredictable, uses the machinery of systems to create something that escapes systematic explanation entirely. It's both the most analyzed human experience and the one that most stubbornly resists analysis, leaving us with insights that feel simultaneously profound and incomplete.

It is a profound patterning, a poetic poiesis.
