I don't know the exact phrase, but anyone pontificating
about anything and the way it should be,
might get someone else to say
"who died and made YOU the authority?"
And so it was, many years ago, that a writer wrote stuff, and over time, became the absolute authority on Angels, or the organizational management structure of Christian heaven.
Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite (that's his name, don't wear it out)
Has angels and sub angels and minion-angels.
But it's cute.
Prolly wrong, but cute.

Ahhhh, see? |
I learned a new word today, (only I forgot it again)
"Hasbára" (I think)
It has to do with explaining stuff, but then it gets all specific and the generic meaning is lost.
Diplomacy?
Propaganda?
I guess it depends on who is saying it.
Here are two A1C diabetes charts.
One is very rigid, disapproving of my sugar.
Another is happy with it.
7.0 is good. |
7.0 is NOT good. |
I could pick and choose my hasbara's, I guess.
Plus the meter or the program ignores when my sugar goes low, saying it never happened.
I don't know what to make of that...
Rereading the first chart, um, well it starts out saying "Normal" so it might be targeted at people who don't think they have diabetes at all.

It's a meme? |
The second chart might be doable if you micromanaged doses like you were carefully doing a chemistry experiment, (think "Titration") but you might not get much done.
My body seems to maximize that rule; it's like some very slow-moving river.
But....
A guy wonders if the big-chunk dose a person gets every six hours, could be broken down into smaller doses?
Google thinks so, with all the standard disclaimers.
I'm not doubting it, I'm just doubtful of the workability...

They want a nice, neat, variable-ridden algebraic solution.
"TRICK QUESTION" (think, "Twilight Zone")
If you are twice as old as your friend (and they don't die,) as you age, they age.
What's the point?
Math is meaningless and we're all going to die.
