What I miss

No, I don't miss my friends,
Who were always there for me
In our simple world.
So distant it seems now,
Our laughters, our stories,
and numerous debates.
And even more so,
The sweet smell of sweat after long days,
And late night walks on deserted streets.


No, it's not what I did that I want back,
Skipping classes and lectures?
Living in the WALA, GODA, BUS or APAYA,
With bent necks and red eyes,
A week before the finals?
Nor is it all the posters we drew,
All the lanterns we made,
The meetings! Campaigns!
Or any other events we did.

I dont think it is,
The tireless hearts or the feather-like soul we shared.
Or my only dear possession,
The Sony Ericsson, with its camera.

Misty Ambewela,
Dark green Sinharaja or,
Windy Anuradhapura,
There are plenty alike here,
If compared in a geography book, it is.
So no, I do not miss them either.

Yes, I know what it is,
That's sunk in my heart,
Making it heavier everyday,
It is just me I miss,
who I used to be.

Can we rescue science from consciousness?

🙆  Physics is (just) the theory of machines that record information?  (been trying to say f u to science for a minute, and maybe this sticks... take it as seriously as any gen AI ofc) -- perplexity: https://www.perplexity.ai/search/take-the-following-definition-2By0vc6xRVeB46Y4SrKwZg#3  ) 1. What Is a Machine? Science is about experiments and data, and data means measurements we make with machines. So if we are to talk about science, we probably should first understand what we require it to be.. A theory of measurements made with machines... So, let's say that a “machine” is any device, natural or made, that marks the world in a measurable way. It could be a telescope catching light, a computer bit changing from 0 to 1, or your eyes perceiving motion. Each machine records  values , and it does so in a  space and time  grid—call it 3+1D, three dimensions of space, one of time. ​ But the grid is only our way to track things. It doesn’t have to be straight o...

🚬 was good! But was it? Am I better than? A break, a swim around the lake,  With thoughts, with clouds...  Done better than that, could I have not? ⚠️ But It's all physics, right! ... right? I am but some star-dust. Dead, a long before.. But am I? 🚫 🙊 well what would that 'I' do, Next? This bunch of gore and light! Well, 👆 is all just Physics,  ⚡| ➡️ ? I mean I feel that I am, Like I feel that I choose! But why , you say it weak , when that's  all that I am? But is it. what. I. am? Can 'I' be not, but i be conscious? Can that not be what 'real' freedom is? But would that not be free (the) will, But not be free-will?  So maybe 'I' must exist for free will, but not free will, for i But what do I know of a life without, So pardon me, for the halts,  - by 'I'

All humans ♟️ deserve ☮︎!

🙏 Dear Charlie, I see many people deeply animated by your passing. Some deeply sad, and some do believe you are with the creator. Or closer to home, at least. So I assume you may understand, and will forgive me, but I wanted to put this into words at least for the sake of the loved ones you left behind, if not to save myself from the wrath of those who do not understand the divine plan, yet! My heart pains when I think about the kids you left behind, who will now have to grow up without the guidance of a loving father.  Instead, they will have to grow up under a shadow of a man. Erected by the most vile parts of our society. As their guiding pillar. (But kids learn the world better than we do, so I have hope that they will find the way ✊) So yes, of course I give a fuck about their plight. And yours too, to be propelled to the forefront, and used immensely, building up so many hopes, only for all those to be taken down in an instance! So I am sorry that I haven't given my fucks ea...
