Reminder: practice exercises, online courses (including using this blog as a course), and ethics

This is just a quick reminderr that I have some practice exercises posted at https://gnwmythr.blogspot.com/2023/09/post-no-2572-practice-exercises.html, and links to online courses (including using this blog as a course) at https://gnwmythr.blogspot.com/p/on-line-courses-on-this-blog.html. 

 

 

Also, don’t forget to do everything - including any psychic work - ethically. 

I discuss that at https://gnwmythrsglossary.blogspot.com/2023/05/ethics.html, but I would like to add/emphasise the following - the details of which are subject to the current laws of whatever jurisdiction you live/work in, so if you have any concerns, consult a suitably qualified/registered/experienced expert: 

• even if you do not charge people, you may be liable for the advice you give them. As an example, if you told someone to give their money to a shonky person, even if you did not charge them for telling them that, you may be liable (you SHOULD be, IMO); 

• legal protections go both ways, so you are likely also protected against attempts to blackmail or threaten you; 

• mind your Mӕgan. 

I consider many people who are not outright fraudsters get themselves into trouble because they are actually seeking emotional validation for their beliefs - especially if they wish to talk about or “demonstrate” proof (see Victor Zammit and  Dean I Radin's “The Conscious Universe: The Scientific Truth of Psychic Phenomena” [Harper One (2010), first pub. Harper Collins (2009), ISBN 978 0062029096, Amazon] on that topic before getting in to any debates/discourse). I suggest doing the emotional work to be able to move away from physical proof and live with spiritual values and ambiguity/uncertainty - you will be more effective for yourself and others, and less likely to damage the entire field that way.

Remember: we generally need to be more human being rather than human doing, to mind our Mӕgan, and to acknowledge that all misgendering is an act of active transphobia/transmisia that puts trans+ lives at risk & accept that all insistence on the use of “trans” as a descriptor comes with commensurate use of “cis” as a descriptor to prevent “othering” (just as binary gendered [men’s and women’s] sporting teams are either both given the gender descriptor, or neither).

Post No. 3,465 - An explanation and response to my post “Post No. 3,458 - An activism email about budgets”

The following article contains both an explanation and a response (derived independently of my work) to my post “Post No. 3,458 - An activism email about budgets”: 

“Moving on: from normalised people to the politics of care”   https://www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2026/05/31/moving-on-from-normalised-people-to-the-politics-of-care/   The commentary about Adolphe Quetelet, who “noticed that many human characteristics clustered around an average. Height did. Weight did. Physical measurements of all sorts did. Given enough observations, patterns emerged that could be described statistically”, but “What had begun as a statistical description gradually acquired social significance” - and the Wikipedia article includes “His work on measuring human characteristic to determine the ideal l'homme moyen (“the average man”), played a key role in the origins of eugenics”, is important:   “The problem arose when averages ceased to be descriptive and became prescriptive.   An average tells us what is common. It does not tell us what is desirable. Yet the distinction between those two ideas became increasingly blurred”   The article continues on to show how this is related to the current generalised and problematic governance approaches (“what could be counted tended to become what mattered”), and how to change this.   

Possible flaws 

Where I can, I will try to highlight possible flaws / issues you should consider: 

• there may be flawed logical arguments in the above: to find out more about such flaws and thinking generally, I recommend Brendan  Myers’ free online course “Clear and Present Thinking”;  
• I could be wrong - so keep your thinking caps on, and make up your own minds for yourself.
