There should be a widespread perception that problems are neither created nor destroyed, only transformed. There is a mountain of gurus explaining the ideal solutions to every conflict and, despite the fact that they make a living out of it, when you stop to think about it, they have the same validity as the prophecies of Nostradamus. It was explained that the world of contemporary communication, so complicated, so global, so full of platforms and access codes, has really only two possible answers: the one given by neurons or the one given by hormones. The reasons or the feelings.<\/p>
It may be because of the law of least effort or because we are less civilized than we think. Or because culture turns out to be only a minimal veneer on the true animal condition, but the majority responses the world offers to almost everything are those that come from the hormonal realm. Sensations and feelings have a very good press because of that same accounting trap of considering that being human is for the best. Love is a feeling, but hate is not. Affection yes, anger no. We are marking our cards to make ourselves look better than we are. We are left with the half-pensionist menu. Metaphors, lyrics, exercises in self-deception.<\/p>
Don’t think about feelings, don’t think about self-help books, don’t think about Paulo Coelho and redemption through cheesy bullshit. Think about neurons and how to apply the principle of their functioning. We have to think about the fucking elephant, even if it’s a mammoth, and learn why zebra crossings were invented.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
