World Makes Sense?

CNN Article Distorting Public Opinion On Former Korean President Moon?
An article on CNN - South Korean and US fighter jets in show of force to Kim Jong Un amid fears over North Korean nuclear test - states "Yoon has consistently emphasized his desire to strengthen the South's military -- a departure from predecessor Moon Jae-in, who had promoted dialogue and peaceful reconciliation."
The article implies that Moon had no desire to strengthen Korea's military, which is ridiculous.
Conservative Korean media relies on this type of subliminal messaging, but an article in CNN? Unintended?
Remember other CNN articles on Korea with issues.
If this latest apparent mistake in editing is corrected, this post will be deleted.
Wanted to complain directly to CNN or the writers, but couldn't.
Writing was helpful in business. Maintained extensive 'to do lists' and such. Too long to do just from memory.
Writing helps to organize, remember, and refine thoughts. Also enables recognition of the physical self and metaphysical self. hehe

Meet Your Maker?
Are Thoughts Reflected In The Physical and Metaphysical Universe?
Perfectly worded questions that seem to resonate just keep popping up?
Organisms programmed to survive usually just chill or play when faced with free time. Humans drew, spoke, and wrote. Seem to be programmed to find out why, for some reason.
Are we exploring the universe as the eyes, ears, and brains for some thing? Slaves to knowledge or some metaphysical energy trying to explore and find out what it is?
Hmmm... Life is the result of some thing trying to explore and find out where it is, what it is, etc.? Seems true.
That would explain why no other species evolved to do calculus. No need.
Would also explain why humans developed intellectually so quickly. Explains many things?
So, we are like fingernails on a bigger thing? Likely. Too gloomy. We are part of the knowledge that is accumulated? Better.
Even better. Life is part of the consciousness waking up and exploring the universe?
Just imagining?
Another mystery revealed - How psychedelic drugs work in the brain.
A study states that psilocybin seems to reduce activity in the medial prefrontal cortex, an area of the brain that helps regulate a number of cognitive functions, including attention, inhibitory control, habits and memory. It could reduce focus on the self and related constraints, thereby impart an "open mind" on the individual.

Use overtones when talking about resonate? Okay.

Stars Are More Massive, The Further Away
According to a study in Science Daily: New discovery about distant galaxies: Stars are more massive than we thought
"... stars in distant galaxies are typically more massive than those in our local neighborhoods, and that the farther away the researchers look, the more massive the average stars become.", the study stated.
Maybe, dark matter might not be needed to explain 'missing mass' of spinning far off galaxies and stuff?
Still need something to explain dark energy. Wonder if black holes turn mass into space? The two great unknowns might have a connection. If mass can be turned into energy in stars, maybe mass turns into space inside a black hole? Who knows? Space is related to time, energy and mass, so seems likely. Maybe even space-time.
In deep learning, AI software is designed to work like a human brain for certain functions. For example, placing importance or weight on current information over outdated information.
In a decade or so, there should be enough AI software to mimic most basic functions of the human brain? Eventually, probably mimic a human. Could it be then that the The Question is answered?

Resonance And Dissonance
Resonance and dissonance are relative and depends on the reference frequency or key.
So, the key for metaphysical, or maybe thought, resonance is truth? Logically.
Or, is it constructive knowledge can be built on truth and true assumptions? Seems to be both.
Resonance tends to linger longer than dissonance?
Strange society, if one thinks about it. Full of contradictions. Some people kill each other for fun in online games. Should be more advanced than that.
Wonder if mass shooters played FPS games.
Heroic rescuers, kidney donors, and other highly empathetic people have larger amygdalas than normal, per CNN report on heroes. The amygdala is related to generating the experience of fear and empathizing with other people's fear, the report said.
Fear is a mostly physically-based emotion? Can cause dissonance?
Lived in Manoa Valley, for a time. Language can be confusing. Interchangeably use so many words...
Overcoming Social Addiction?
Could too many people be too dependent on their society and status quo?
If you are not a part of society, apparently there is something wrong according to society. Anti-social is a dirty word. But everyone is anti-present society, right?
Most people don't agree with many aspects of society but due to education and peers...are caught in loop, it seems?
Avoiding social contact as much as possible works wonders but is hard to do, at first? Love, friendships, excitement, etc., are like addictions and hard to stop, even for a while? But one needs to take a break for proper perspective.
They say friendships are good for health and longevity. True in many cases, but depends on friend and person.
Being mostly alone is hard to do but recommended to older people for a change. Seems to free time to get acquainted with the 'void'.
Younger people might need friends and a sense of belonging. Older people have already had the experience and need to try something else or new?
Talk about metaphysics and crowds will become sleepy and thoughts clouded. Discourse on metaphysics in the future could seem like speaking in tongues.
Are many too dependent on talking to pass time? Is talking too much an addiction? For some? For one? Used to be. For all? At times?
Also, does too much speaking lead to cognitive dissonance? Sometimes, the mouth seems to run off with the thoughts. The conscious loses control of thoughts and something false is spoken.
Definitely messes up thinking. If sufficient time is taken to recognize and realize the falseness of the thought, then the dissonance is resolved? If not, problem gets compounded and seemingly infinitely complex?
Were humans meant to evolve from being centered on survival to being centered on exploring the universe? Or is something driving humans to do so? Or were our brain genetics or epigenetics changed by radiation, chemicals, peyote, or something? Could be all of the above.
Society and media places a lot of importance on friendship and getting together to have fun.
Since I can remember, media has touted 3 meals a day, family and friends are good for health and longevity, and other themes. Why not bombard people with stories about eating 3 meals a day is too many calories and unhealthy? Or negative friends and family can ruin health?
Shouldn't scientific studies have moved on from family and friends are good for health to more detailed studies? Same thing for over 50 years. People are like sheep, but come on.
