"My Reflections"
It's worth having kids!
I don't want to compose about politics today, but I'm not moving distant from it. On the another hand, I would like to answer to Mrs. Jagoda's letter "My Reflections" (Angora No. 45) in which she describes the situation of her neighbour. I'm appalled! To make specified young people (a neighbour of Mr. Berries) endure chronic diseases – this is simply a scandal! This – on specified a massive scale as present – most likely never happened before. So we request to take care of... having children in advance! Preferably at a young age, so that he can take care of us in old age.
Unless we want to end up like in the book “The Sad End of Life” which was quoted in Jack Binkowski's review in this issue of “Angora” and: “...to surrender to systemic force in a place where there is always a deficiency of staff who could spend adequate time on each resident?” and where older and frequently sick people “must want to halt being healthy and forget about full freedom of movement and election due to the fact that it is not and never will be.” From myself, I have heard that sometimes residents of specified places are calmed by psychotropics. Dear woman Jagodo!
There is no uncertainty that your 35-year-old neighbour made bad choices in her life! She's single, childless, has no close family. All she has left is her neighbors. What happens erstwhile they get sick? Who will take care of your neighbor, who will aid her”? There are 4 apartments in my third-floor stairwell. In the first there is simply a busy household with 3 children of school age, in the second middle-aged couple, without children, and besides busy. In the third, there is simply a 93 - year - old female who is cared for all day by her son, daughter - in - law, aunt, and 2 grandchildren. I live in 4th with my son. Conclusion? It's worth having kids! Then there is individual close to us who will come, bring a warm meal, talk, perceive to us and hold hands. What has given your neighbour education and good earnings”?
By acquiring them, she neglected (for deficiency of time) to start a family, give birth to children, and eat well. Effect: Chronic disease! If she had a husband and children, she would gotta feed them and herself if she wanted not to. It could not be junk food (as in college), but fresh, with a limited amount of salt, a controlled amount of sugar and white flour. The proposal is simple – priorities request to be changed! First household and children! In my youth, money was said to be important, but not important. Mrs. Jagodo! All chronic diseases can be cured, although sometimes it takes as much as you worked for it. In order to heal your neighbor, I urge Dr. Joel Fuhrman's books: "Heal heart disease" and "Super Resistance. How to get healthy with food.”
There's nothing fresh in these books. It's a return to tradition, to eating our ancestors, based on natural foods. due to the fact that nature is smart! From myself I can add that the recommendations of the author of books (those and respective others) truly work. I want Mrs. Berries (a beautiful name!) and her neighbour. And erstwhile the neighbour gets well, let her have a household and have children immediately! With respect. A.W.
“My Writing”
Respect alternatively of censorship
In the 46th issue of “Angora”, Mr Andrzej Zawadzki in his letter “My Writing” describes his peripete in relation to the criticism he has committed in the housing newspapers against unruly cyclists. “On the sidewalk, I gave way to cyclists, even if they didn’t call me...”. Fortunately, winter is coming and cyclists will not be masters of public roads and sidewalks. But Mr Andrew raised a more crucial problem: Criticize or keep quiet? Should we pay attention or pretend we don't see a individual passing through a red light with a baby with a cell telephone at his ear?
In the 44th issue of “Angora” ("Warnings, Threatened") I wrote about the failure of the authorities of my residential cooperative with the disabled, who are refused taxis with the driveway under the cage, due to the fact that abroad entry is prohibited. The president of the Jaga taxi corp told me that the answer to the request to let taxis to enter was: ‘no’. Why not? – the president of Jagi asked. - No, it's not! erstwhile I criticized this strategy of humiliating the disabled and seniors on the settlement portal, the admin on the services of the cooperative threw me out of a group of nodding local government authorities.
I worked in the media for almost 20 years, had to deal with censorship all day. Journalists employed in the RSW Press-Book-Move had forged in memory that negative writing about the russian Union and its leaders was prohibited, it was not allowed to criticize the Pope, the organization dignitaries central and provincial level, but it was allowed to throw mud at locker area and bikiniists. erstwhile I tried to smuggle the opinion in the paper of the voivode that he was not as stupid as his opponents thought, he paid attention to me in order to alleviate the hidden criticism of the voivode. We agreed that he would remain, "...not naive as his enemies believe." There are volumes written about criticism in the media, but this 1 is inactive unwelcome. fresh examples.
The planet widely criticized Donald Trump before the election as uncouth, self-righteous, court-martialed, and thus a criminal, in addition to the father of 5 children with 3 different women. In a word – the Republican organization candidate for president of the superpower was disgusted. Among the critics of the Republican candidate were Polish politicians – Trump is simply a protofascist, Hitler, undertaker, Russian agent, and his place is in the Dumpster of past ("Angora" No. 46, interview with Prof. Lewicki). What's going on? To blame the U.S. presidential candidate can (was!) without consequences, in the country the challenge of political opponents is on the agenda and even belongs to a good tone, but to draw the driver's attention that he is driving against the current, threatens by self-righteousness, which we have late seen. Dear Readers, let's get married. Yours sincerely. HENRYK KIN From Białystok
The kids got candy...
For children's Halloween games, thunders spread. Innocent dress-up and knocking on houses with the slogan “sweeties or pranks” proved to be the biggest insult to God in Poland, the work of Satan, the worship of the Evil One. It can't be that Pole small replicates pagan American patterns! The child’s soul must be saved from the inevitable descent into the core of hell’s pits, where only tears and teeth are crushed! The condemning speeches of all levels of church hierarchs began: from the simplest vicar, to bishops and archbishops, multiplied over the measurement of the creators of spiritual podcasts, devolutionary actors and singers, haunted by the abrupt religion of a teenager, and at the end of God-fearing politicians.
And they went into conflict with the spell of the Defender of Faith, the actual Poles, the Worshipers of Mary, for whom “God, Honor, Homeland” are the highest value. They stuffed chocolate with nails, pins, needles, staples, scissors removed from pencil sharpeners. What a hell of a scare! Let the wicked see straight how severe and inevitable the punishment of God is, let them endure pain, suffering, and how well they will swallow, then may death be? And here no of these keen defenders of the actual Faith, followers of the One, Good, Merciful God of these nails have condemned. MARGORATE
Abortion
For more than a century, Poles and Poles are waiting for the right to abortion, and MPs are spreading. Members and Members, you are to be a right, and alternatively you are serving us with lies and hypocrisy! After all, the right to remove unwanted pregnancy does not force anyone to remove it! Our religion says that God will justice us after death, so let people make mistakes. God will settle everyone according to his actions. But if you want to punish for the removal of unwanted pregnancy, you should punish men too, for that it takes two.
I wonder if Members of the Sejm would be so willing to punish. Especially since it's mostly men who get women to have abortions. Do not be hypocrites and hypocrites, but blame your own shoulders. The fight against the right to abortion has continued since independency was regained, and always the opponents of that right are accomplices to the act, that is, unpunished men so far. 1 of the German scholars, the punishments imposed on women for abortion, called the biggest criminal law crime, and Boy- -Jelenski wrote about it. He was right. It takes 2 to tango. Yours sincerely. K. Mr Gruszewski
The right line has our power...
Yes, it's a quote from the iconic “Miscia”. Years go by, governments change, but that ridiculous motto inactive stands. due to the fact that all power knows best how to delight society... This present 1 has imagined that the countrymen will be happy erstwhile as much as PLN 180 billion (!) will go from our hollow budget for army and reinforcement. As if there were no more urgent needs in Poland... In a country where nearly half of the population (17 million) lives below the alleged social minimum (according to the Powerty Watch 2024), and in utmost poorness there are already 2.5 million people (including half a million children!). And this rate has doubled in 1 year!
Such a success... Isn't that why Poles went to elections so massive a year ago? After all, we were to remove the Law and Justice mainly to choose a better future, normality, simply to live – without all this ideology, threatening war, waving swords, hating strangers, xenophobia... Before the election, it was said that Tusk had allegedly turned left. This would mean a direction towards human rights, including women's rights, social security, wellness protection, discipline and education, etc. As a left-wing voter, I fell for it. What do we got now? After a year, I feel like I'm in a potty. Hospitals in debt, Polish discipline lies on shoulders, poorness increases, asylum law is repealed, and women are inactive waiting for the promised changes... But our “cold war hawks” (and American) are happy, due to the fact that Tusk abruptly turned right and entered not only the PiS shoes, but even the soldier boots. And it's getting more comfortable. So, alternatively of the bright future, "dark I see."
And I'm not convinced that we're going to tighten the belt again due to the fact that the enemy at the gates, we're going to gotta spend billions on American and Korean scrap (because in a fewer years it'll be just scrap metal). I was hoping that the overextended acquisition plans of Błaszczak (e.g. 500 Himars!) would be verified, limited, cured... I mean, who would be able to operate these himars, where are the shelters prepared for them, where do they get millions of rounds of ammunition, if the production of the indigenous arms manufacture is adequate for a fewer days of combat, for a dozen, possibly volleys? So, naive, I miscalculated again. due to the fact that the fresh power is even more paranoid on reinforcements and springs of muscles... like any kind of soldate (such a forgotten name). due to the fact that he's expected to have an ambition to own the world's 5th army! Why? due to the fact that we're a generation that goes to war again, like any generals dream of? It means "bagnet for weapons, you request blood". And they put these idée in to fix politicians who know war and military only from films of 4 armored or c.k. deserters. But Putin has been stuck in Ukraine for 3 years.
So give me (I ask about this frequently alleged dogs of war) at least 1 argument and reason why he would make armed aggression against Poland, NATO country! I can't find the answer... (and the reasons why he invaded Ukraine, I found rather a lot... And not that I approve of it). Our beloved power and generality now boast that we already have over 200,000 soldiers under arms. But they want 300... Not all of them, however, want to admit that half of this army is actually not even military material. Fulfilling the wishes of the erstwhile power and entering her shoes, the "inflated" army was artificially inflated.
According to the frequently abandoned ideas under the fresh “On Defence of the Motherland” Act, a circumstantial “branch” was ordered, that is, everyone who wanted to gain over 6,000 per hand for free was taken. And in the lowest degree, in the lowest position, without education, without any skills and no responsibility. And that's how the cooks in the military canteens that have cooked peas so far as civilian workers are already cooking as soldiers. The same applies to secretaries, referees, typists, accountants... due to the fact that if you can make 6,000 alternatively of four? Why not? (It is simply a fact – I know about specified a recruitment, about specified a negative selection, due to the fact that I have many friends in the army).
But the furda there with specified trifles, with specified doubts – we yet have a wanted, professional, "great army". So that a large part of these "soldiers" have no predispositions and skills of soldiers, no weapons, no real training, no training, no training and no training... I won't even mention the war anymore. So we have “more and more costumers, more and more hard to get the original”. And it's going to cost 180 billion. I anticipate our fresh power to verify its priorities, its promises to voters and, above all, its moral principles. GRZEGOR BROMBERGER
I'm against it!
I am 93 years old and I hatred old age – old age is simply a horror! I come from Volyn, and Volyn to me is heaven in stars, meadows in flowers, forests in blueberries. And Grandpa's home on Horyn... besides bad it belongs to Ukraine today...
Since 1942, I have had a very sad life. I loved my father, I loved him very much. He was shot as an innocent hostage. UPA has provoked, brought Germans. He's lying, poor, in a mass grave in the woods under the Klevan. Today, I don't even have the strength or the money to go there, put the tulips down. My father was a legionary.
But why am I writing this letter? Well, I read “Angora” from cover to cover. erstwhile in a infirmary I wanted to give a paper to read to a caregiver – she did not want to, she said she did not read this newspaper! I went to the geriatric a fewer days ago. He's sympathetic, but he doesn't read the paper either, and he doesn't even "take it in his hand." What's all this about? Does this mean that I would not read “Angora”?! Churchill said Poles were wicked people. And I guess he was right – hence scandals, hatred, murdered newborns. Dealing with Tuski. And I like Tusk! Poles – God-fearing, yet mean, inexpensive and quarrelsome... This life is wasted, so I must have another – joyful and happy. It's all fast, it's besides fast... IRENA K.
PS I compose due to the fact that I like to write, but I have difficulties. any sadist, with no heart or conscience, hiding in the form of a yellow spot, took my eye! Me, a individual who doesn't walk (spent knees), just sits and reads. Take my eye distant from me! It was rude and insolent! And life began so beautifully – colors, smells, baths in Horyn... Well, no more pathetic. Man lives besides short, even animals get better due to the fact that they don't know they'll die. But... you gotta enjoy life even with a death sentence! They asked Woody Allen how he felt about death. "I am against," he replied. I'm against it too!
Cheers! I.K.
Artificial manipulation
When I was in advanced school – and this was erstwhile the students had to do homework at home, and the teachers wanted to check it out – our large Polishman showed up with a alleged amazing nose. He brought a stack of notebooks with our homework, discussed them, pointed out mistakes, sometimes praised someone.
Normal – would like to say. But there was something peculiar about this check. If individual has taken advantage of someone's work in writing their own paper, the prof. has picked it up and said: Kowalski (no individual with specified a name in my class attended, so I can call them here symbolically), I see that this time you downloaded from Jessica (there was no specified thing, not those times). That was all time and all Kowalski. The Polishman most commonly sensed whose thought was in a abroad text. Why am I writing about this now, after half a century? due to the fact that there is an era of alleged artificial intelligence.
It's neither intelligence nor artificial, which I will effort to justify. Until recently, naively, I thought that everything I put online, including this text, would someway supply a resource of information for artificial intelligence. Turns out, no. AI creates texts only from what individual has “put” previously into its resources. It is intelligence, and in fact the views, integrity and attitude of the man who creates the ‘draw’ decide what this expected intelligence will yield. A celebrated example from Krakow. If from the earlier statements of Wisława Szymborska, any passages of texts were to be chosen in a biased way, and so would they be, the content of the statements would be different. In this case, Michał Rusinek accepted the thought and – as I realize it – besides what was given to AI.
However, the creators of artificial intelligence do not agree that they should be obliged to indicate what content the computer then uses. This computer doesn't choose its own content. There's 1 more thing that came to me about it, this time it's farming, association. Seeds can be made of cereals obtained straight from the field, that is, grains, but they can besides be made from milled grain and even from plain grass. All of this is of large importance to the horse's seed.
If the food supplier for AI is an anti-semite, racist or another powerfully identifiable man, what will spit out AI will be different than fed with a dunk from a Democrat, a woman, a man delicate to beauty, etc. Discussions on climate change are a good example. Clearly, there is evidence for all thesis. Just skip any data and get the bias text. Only that in the case of a simple text individual signed it, and artificial intelligence is anonymous, though only by appearance. Clearly, the law is not keeping up with technology. Kind of like with cops who are always behind criminals. Moreover, well-paid lobbyists, who are not only utilized by politicians to do something for them, offer arguments of an ideological nature. It turns out that even full countries are helpless.
Maybe it's worth trying. Computers can do faster present than my Kowalski did, get something out of our texts for a given subject. However, whether the device uses Jessica, Frank, or Janek’s work for this intent is determined by the person’s views. And we don't have the tool (intelligence) of my Polish to check it out.
