s n a p p e r h e a d: Research Notes (NOV 2021)

(So-far-successful) aural learning project based on anecdotal, experimental, results:

Headphones (recommend open-back, wired, with an in-line amplifier).
YouTube subscription (to eliminate ads).
Firefox (or similar browser which allows simultaneous open tabs).
Loop a viscerally recognizable, non-lyrical, song in a YouTube Music tab (e.g. Air - La Femme d'Argent).
Open any want-to-implant lecture/story in a separate tab (e.g. Lao Tzu - Be Like Water).
Adjust volumes so vocals are recognizable but not dominant.

Time must forward. Entropy is a logical reason why this is/was/will forever be (don't take the word 'information' too-literally).
Historically, currently, and forever-in-the future, rational thought/critical thinking skills is a rare activity in humans. Consequently, if you are someone who insists on evidence and your "brain recognizes a functional state which you have labeled 'uncomfortable' since you began the practice of thinking in this manner" whenever you witness -- in others -- signs of irrationality and illogical thoughts, Issac Asimov explains why you are an outlier and how to understand the lack of rationality prevalent in the masses.
Ponder a foundational supposition: Quantum computers (technology utilizing quantum entanglement) might make it possible to send information backwards in time, in much the same manner as posting an article or video on the internet today is the equivalent of sending information into our future's time-line. (Publishing a hard-copy book has always been communicating with our future selves, but digitization of books make future needle-in-haystack searchs more target-successful. The yet-to-be-discovered task is how-to verify the information sent back in time remained accurate.
There are recognizable-logical reasons that most mammalian bilateral symmetry (say that fast) has evolved into today's vital organs with either two co-functioning halves in one organ (penis, vagina, tongue, brain), two completely separate organs (eyes, ears, kidneys, lungs, testicles, ovaries) or the rare, single-organ exceptions (liver, heart, skin). Does heart count with four chambers? Is pancreas part of the liver? And where does one's individual bacterial biome fit-fall into this system of constantly growing, partially dead and alive cells we call a body?
The largest single organism on present-day Earth is either a fungal system or a massive collection of trees comprised of one underground 'root system' and millions of cloned above-ground fruiting bodies (organs). Both are allegedly in the western US and began living long before we (the conquering majority) arrived and took governmental control of the continent from the thousands of indigenous human tribes who were populating the land (albeit without a continent-wide means of communication or government).
If you find yourself awake after several hours of sleep. Get up! Find out if the right-creative side of your brain is waking you for its own "creative" reasons (you can nap or meditate later). The left-governing side of our brain (once awake) will draw its own, separate, conclusion as to why it is now awake (bladder, cat, noise, thirst, sinus, temperature, etc) and, unless you prime-that-pump with a "pay attention to the night-shift supervisor", it may not consider the thoughts of the right-hemisphere and, instead, guide you to return to sleep.
The brain's association cortex is where creativity begins. Drawing conclusions which "others are not able to make" from an otherwize unrelated series of slices of information.
