I've posted my debut album on my YouTube for free. It's an odd vibe - not quite fitting of any genre, but every bit honest, creative, and unapologetically transcendent. And that was exactly the point. 🎛️😎

Another ponderance on Substack: Old English Stoicism, Wyrd, and Anglo-Saxon ontology read through a Nietzschean lens and drawn to a modern parallel. Pleasing comments on this piece in the IWP Journal too. 👍

[Jack Dolan @IcelationWorks]

This is a three-part series in which I discuss the philosophical undercurrents of Old English poetry through a Nietzschean lens. The three essays cover The Wanderer, The Battle of Brunanburh, and The Seafarer. Written by anonymous Anglo-Saxon poets during the early Dark Ages, each poem contains what I'd argue is a remarkably coherent philosophical worldview, and one that predates and yet closely parallels both classical Stoicism and Nietzsche's later thinking on will, impermanence, and the creation of meaning in the absence of reliable outcomes.

The core argument running through all three is straightforward in that the Anglo-Saxon tradition understood, long before Western philosophical vocabulary existed to describe it, that the world offers no metaphysical guarantee of justice or reward, and that this is not a reason for despair but the very condition that makes genuine bravery in the face of (perceived) nihilism possible. The relevance to today is, I think, fairly obvious, for these are texts written over a thousand years ago that have, if anything, grown more relevant rather than less.

It’s a niche subject but it's something I've been wanting to examine for a while.

[Hesse Philosophy @HermannHessed]

“He who jumps into the void owes no explanation to those who stand and watch.”

― Jean-Luc Godard

[Athenian Stranger @Athens_Stranger]

Nietzsche on aristocracy:

“Not knowing anything about commerce is noble — To sell one’s virtue only at the highest price, let alone to practice usury with it as teacher, civil servant, artist — turns talent and genius into a shopkeeper’s affair.”

[Rage ❉ @ragecvlt]

social media itself its at point that comoditises the human. which means that everyone is just fuel

its not based on community thus social media is not social

for what use are social medias then?

its like, better have an AI interface in your place & check its work once a week

anything u wanna do, let dead internet talk in your place

memes, cats, emotional fueling politics used for rituals, entertainment, sports, music, gossip

might aswell just automate it all and bots talk to each other.

and it seems like owners want such thing but also customers have no choice because the only one that can actually own something are big tech conglomerates

so whats the end goal?

>no one likes each other
>everyone hates
>everyone attention fueling economy

algorithm does not promote knowledge/information but attention grabbing methods

so whats the point? tell me

tell me

what purpose do i have as a human in a automated and AI environment full of bots, manipulators, tech giants that sell attention from people as caviats

if the art is taken from the artist what is the point of creating, of giving

money?

the fuck do i need something that doesnt have human soul?

the fuck i need something that doesnt have people united

the fuck i need ANYTHING while i watch YOU and OTHERS, and ANIMALS, and NATURE suffer because of choices that people make for profit

ok say you have a child, and you abbandon it to fend for himself but the society is constructed in such way that they cant fend for themselves because its parasytical, it can only provide if you feed a piece of your flesh

but your child can only know what it is taught
what is taught is what society taughts

which is adultury, manipulation, hate, usury, individualism, sins, display of power

while every display of god is corrupted with some individualistic projection people make about themselves and such gods are given attention by a community of people that hate themselves

god (yes, god not God)
god becomes fallable

that child worships the amalgamations of creations made by the shadows of man

you as an outsider who may have higher consciousness, can see that child suffering in its own ignorance

or as some people say about jesus " boiling in its own excrement "

equally your child suffers in its own shit and others shit which noooo one wants to clean up and take care

now zoom out

that child is a dog, a cat, a plant, your street, your river, other human, the sky

everyone is trying to survive, sick, begging for mercy to survive

2 choices
they choose : adultury, manipulation, hate, usury, individualism, sins
>they get food
they choose: not to sin but act by heart
>they are ignored and die sick and suffer

each day you wake up with your little bit of consciousness you watch old people suffer while being pure, and in their own ignorance because no one taught them more or gave them more

each day you wake up you might see a dead animal, a cat or rat on the road left over no one to touch

each day you wake up you might see a begging animal for food but society is not constructed in such a way that they can provide for themselves, so the streets offer nothing

do you understand

streets offer nothing you fucker

they go dig on trash to feed themselves on the yesterday

humans chosing to act as they own anything
you dont own anything you fucker, God does
you're supposed to take care of each other
to take care of its creation
not murder it, not starve it, not suck it dry, not crucify it

you see different consciousness of people going into different niches of people to find themeselves
>music > death, fight, drug, sex, abuse
>social media> politics, hate, fun fun fun fun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun funfun fun fun
>world > :) :) :) ( ):

no one really knows themselves but tries to find themselves in the shit of each other

fragmented find fragments,fragmented find fragments

but if the fragments are all the shadow shit of someone else and all the fragments of God exhausted, all that remains is fragments each other shit

everyone feeds themselves shit in human centipide style and world runs around until the next day starts again :D :d :d :d :d :d :d

do you understand how painful it is to know and to understand but no one's heart to speak to and no one heart to help?

because we really dont have each other, we are alone, and everyone is trying to be alone but in a grandiose form like some celebrity

>ah yes that is going to fix my problem

no it fucking wont

you and everyone is a miserable piece of shit because we dont have sense of community
you cant stand each other
you hate each other and above all, you hate yourselves

OHOHO U WANNA CREATE AND SOME AESTHETIC WOHO

all its built on the back of those ancestors who had a sense of belonging and truth

you open news > attention, fake shit, drama
you open ads > more fake fuckers trying to sell themselves to suck you dry
smiling and behaving in fun way, but really?
i see it in their eyes, dry, hate, dark, no love

just pure usury

all products humans made?
>cooks cook with hate
>products made with machines
>animals used and chopped like replacable trash, even trash gets treated more kindly
>those animals are boiled and cooked with whatever processed shit the business owner can put
oh it falls into the ground or its expired?

WHO THE FUCK CARES HAAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

>SEASON IT AGAIN AND COOK IT REMOVE THE SMELL
>SERVE IT.

>every marketing product shown?
BEAUTIFUL WITH MANY COLORS
(rotting inside)

oh what about humans?

females are taught to be commondities

their fathers are missing because their father fathers and mothers abandoned them
no sense of community, mothers hated herself, fathers couldnt provide (becomes missing) because society doesnt give a shit to encourage and support families and communities

so things split apart

so the only thing that people are supposed to protect, women, is alone
she gets taught to hate men, to hate herself
to change herself, to sell herself, to show off so someone can "buy" her (give her attention), in order to use her

oh yeah, those hit up flirting lines guru experts that make videos how to get a female
"do you know what you look like, you look just like my future wife hahaha" hihi
>use her and leave her
"you dropped something, my heart" hahahah hihihi
>use her and leave her

oh but lets say someone choses to stay but these kinds of males chose to stay? they will fucking hate her
but on the outside will seem fine

months,years pass

2 choices
> man becomes absent
> man becomes abusive

woman gets raised alone with their child just like the street cats feed themselves in the trash for food of yesteday

that woman gets raised to hate men, and thus her child rebels against the system

how?
emotionally

how the fuck can a child rebel agaisnt the system

there is no family or community or values the child can protect himself from a certain idea

so it choses comfort and rebellion

HAHA YEAH KILL CHARLIE KIRK
HAHAHHAA YEAH KILL THAT OTHER PERSON WHO CARES
LOOK AT ME I WILL CHOSE WHAT I WANT FOR MYSELF
I WILL CHOP MY DICK AFFIRM THE VALUES IN A SOCIETY THAT THE LEADERS HAVE CASTRATED THEMSELVES IN GOD OF SODOMY

oh from another side?
men who are taught that their mascuilinity is toxic because of society who hates men

one choses to become a total cuck in order to validate himself in a society of cucks
one choses to becomes a better man but its labeled toxic

- on the toxic man ? he doesnt know how to handle his emotions because no one taught him how to channel that energy
taught by society that he should take it in and shut the fuck up, he represses his energy

after some time that man becomes an inflated balloon of repressed emotion agaisnt the society that hated him for loving

(man with no way to express his emotions in a healthy way and not taught properly, especially alone)
have the tendency to become aggressive not because their aggresivity its innate but because he doesnt know

now there are 2 types of men

1 - the one that loses themselves in the world , material
2- one that tries to be the best version he can be between material and spiritual

the first option 1
can be a type of man that doesnt give a shit about shit actions (he does logically, but in a corrupted moral societal community, the illocial is logical to him)

so he choses to abuse the purity, use females to personal egoistic pleasures, use people hearts to gain money

and second one
hold himself tight, alone because information is scarce thus doing his best with what he has, reading learning, getting himself up out there without violating his moral values which are also balanced to the degree his heart is.
(which is taught by mothers and God)

ok so because of these family dynamics of male female issues we also have

left and right

extreme left , left, middle, right, extreme right
(these depends on the extremity of trauma and cognitive dissonance)

ALL HATE EACH OTHER AND NO ONE UNDERSTANDS EACH OTHER
good
perfect

k what now?
like really... what is the next step?
because it seems like no one knows the nextstep and everyone is acting like some big balls gang shit that knows what they are doing

knowing these things
really what are we waiting for things to become?
then what the fuck is this society really hoping for really?

things are so easy honestly

so fucking easy you have NO IDEA
but no one really knows who to listen to and those who lead are those that shouldnt

people vote as if it will change anything.
it WONT

because its the consciousness the all prevading knowledge behind each human and creature

its not its flesh

so no matter who you vote, you are voting people who hate themselves, who hate each other

you dont have a choice, its just illusion of choice in everything that you eat, do, drink, buy, vote, get,

anything that you do
its an illusion of choice

because if the consciousness behind the flesh is fucked
you are chosing something distorted one way or another

>the businessman who raised animal in torture
>the person who butchered the animal in hate
>the person who hates food they cook for others
>the person who hates their job of serving food

you the fool who eat hating your day ahhahhahahahhahahahhahahahah

WHAT CHOICE
DO YOU
HAVE

WHICH OF THE FOODS, AND WHICH OF THE BUSINESSES AND WHICH OF THE PRODUCTS, AND WHICH OF THE POLITICANS, AND WHICH OF THE CONTENT, AND WHICH OF THE _________
ARE YOU REALLY CHOSING
IF THE CORE CONSCIOUSNESS IS THE SAME

really what dream is west or east, or north or south hoping to achieve

cause honestly it seems like its own destruction
while some quantum demon takes over the earth from people hearts and feed themselves on your flesh of heart

while the cultic sodomic elitist leaders praise these demon gods as their saviour promising them some eternal ass-fuckery

man fuck you
fuck you
fuck you and your society
your ideals
your and your whatever the fuck you hope to dream

you need each other, its us who make the heaven
here, now
not us dying and then going to heaven

you need each parts of consciousness to raise with each other
you need all parts of creation to raise with you to heaven

each animal that helped you and feed you
each plant that made your day beautiful
each person that existed

because as consciousness, you cannot exist alone
only a demon can exist alone, an materialised eggregor spirit feeding on something distorted

you need each other man
if you didnt need each other, you would have 1 head and no body
if you didnt need each other you would have 1 chakra
if you didnt ned each other you would be a 1 braincell fucker not multi-cell biological organism

all creation needs to ascend together

and there are many of them who want to bring it down in order to please their overlord just to have a place in the fake heaven, then turning into dust

i mean creation after all will always exist and nothing will ever be destroyed

but to have millions of years of evolution start over again its quite painful

God will wait because its eternal, and angels will keep helping because both are outside of time

there are people that come, help the creation, like Jesus, Krishna, Buddha, Rama, etc
and then ascend

become an angel outside of time

earth gets destroyed and this solar system because of the corruption on people hearts?
oh they wait, people and ascended masters come, help and ascend again outside time.

it is those who have been stuck here for idk how many years that is the problem

millions and billions and trillions, gozillions of souls

mothers and fathers and sisters and brothers and friends and foes

i just hope you realise that we have to ascend ourselves and together

because as you cant be born without parents
(although these corrupt fucks want to destort laws of creation)
so do you need each other as creation to help it ascend

and until we realise our differences, honestly we will keep fighting and blaming

and i see a lot of issues and a lot of patterns of past and present

i wish i could help

if i was selfish i couldve stopped writing, stopped giving and focused only on myself, my own awakening and bye

but i also know that divine spark is in all creatures
and if there is a chance to give back whatever i was given i will

because for all you and me know
is it because of many around and beyond and behind us

@AlfieFrost2219 @JacCymro1400 The Welsh are both. 'Welsh' is an Old English term for 'foreigner', referring to the pre-Germanic Britons as the Saxons saw them.

[Jack Dolan @IcelationWorks]

@Kengetskeltikos @JacCymro1400 I agree with the sentiment, but as UK citizens, the English can rightfully see themselves as part of the historic British collective.

@catgirl7733 @Diocletian212 @_CultureCrusade It came from the Anglo-Normans who settled south of the Landsker Line in "Little England beyond Wales", Pembrokeshire. The name became Mick-licked via Norse-Irish ethnogenesis in settlements like Wexford, Kilkenny, and Mayo.

@englishcounties Gaels aren't the same as the Brythonic tribes who inhabited the region prior to the settlement of the Angle and Nordic tribes. The Irish influence came later. It doesn't make it a predominantly Celtic region.

I think WSH ancestry is fairly evenly distributed amongst Insular Celts and North Germanic peoples. Prior to recent archeological discoveries, I had long opined that the Gaels and North/West Germanic tribes are essentially the same root folk speaking different languages. The Irish, Scots, Angles, Saxons, Danes and Norwegians all share a starkly similar warrior mythos, for example.
