Lux Colloquii: The Non-Human Internet — Or, There’s an AI for That

The digital realm is no longer solely human — if it ever was. What we experience online is increasingly shaped, manipulated, and controlled by algorithms, AI, and non-human entities that outnumber us. While many suspect this, few grasp the full extent of the transformation underway. As artificial intelligence becomes more embedded in every facet of society, from commerce to governance to personal interaction, it’s worth asking: where does this road lead? And more importantly, what does it mean for those who refuse to relinquish their autonomy to a machine-driven world?

Lux Colloquii: Falling for the Trick

We’re not here to fix the world. Not really. The idea that we must engage endlessly with the problems handed down to us — repeating the same outrage, the same struggles, the same attempts at revolution — feels less like progress and more like participation in an elaborate, self-sustaining illusion. The trick isn’t just deception; it’s the mechanism that keeps us fighting within the game, rather than seeing beyond it.

Lux Colloquii: Spiritual Frameworks as Control Systems

It’s easy to get lost in the labyrinth of ideas — past lives, reincarnation, karma, hypnosis, and the nature of reality itself. We’ve been told that we are bound by cycles, debts, and lessons, yet the more one examines these frameworks, the more they start to resemble the same old control mechanisms dressed up in spiritual language. If we are fragments of an infinite source, why would that source impose rigid, Earth-centric laws of punishment and reward? Perhaps the deeper truth lies beyond the narratives we’ve inherited — beyond the neatly packaged stories that keep us tethered to a cycle we never agreed to. Maybe the real journey isn’t about atoning for imagined past sins, but about breaking free from the illusion that we were ever bound at all.

The Homestead: Sovereignty, Self-Reliance, or Continued Dependence?

What do you really want? How often do you make the conscious effort to sit and let your thoughts be free for a time and to see what sort of inner guidance, questioning, answering, and authentic motivation may surface?

Many of us are feeling the effects of the ongoing “Big Squeeze,” wherein costs of living continue to rise while overall quality and standards are always going down. The costs of having shelter, feeding yourself, educating yourself, and pursuing your best life are, for many, being priced out of reach. As a result, many are actively, and perhaps finally, seeking alternatives, ready to alter their trajectory toward a different path. But what path would be best for you and your family?

Transitions

Blessed and self-empowering be your new year, friends. Good luck in 2021, but know nothing will change right away. This epochal transition is here for good, for bad, and forever to change us and our reality.
