Evolution of an Aristocrat. An Exploration of Neo-Aristocratic Lifestyle. July 21, 2013. You Both Already Are and Never Will Be. I love the momentary confusion of seeing two apparently contradictory statements. The pause in daily life as your eyes narrow at the sentence and you wonder, "how can that be? Take, for instance, this sentence:. You both already are and never will be a Neo-Aristocrat. By our rules of grammar, this sentence is nonsensical. How can someone both be and never be something? The evol...

Evolution of an Aristocrat: November 2013
http://evolvingaristocrat.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Evolution of an Aristocrat. An Exploration of Neo-Aristocratic Lifestyle. November 9, 2013. This past week, autumn swept in with a vengeance. When people say their favorite season is autumn, I doubt they mean this half. The image I have been meditating on is metal corresponding to The Knife. A knife cuts away unnecessary things. It parrs the fat, rids us of the waste. In our hectic world where we define ourselves by what we do. It is hard to say no and to bring things to an end. There are fears of di...

Evolution of an Aristocrat: Francis Bacon and the Neo-Aristocrat
http://evolvingaristocrat.blogspot.com/2013/07/francis-bacon-and-neo-aristocrat.html
Evolution of an Aristocrat. An Exploration of Neo-Aristocratic Lifestyle. July 22, 2013. Francis Bacon and the Neo-Aristocrat. Nature to be commanded must be obeyed. This quote may be the most concise explanation of the Neo-Aristocrat's philosophy on life that I have seen yet. For those who don't know, Francis Bacon was a scientific philosopher born in London in the 1500's. His book, Novum Organum Scientiarum. How can you command something if you must obey it first? But if we ignore these laws- if I deci...

Evolution of an Aristocrat: Introduction
http://evolvingaristocrat.blogspot.com/2011/09/introduction.html
Evolution of an Aristocrat. An Exploration of Neo-Aristocratic Lifestyle. September 29, 2011. Something is missing in the world. I see in the people around me my own reflection: hunched- shouldered, slack- eyed, enclosed continually in a miasma of technology and over scheduled lives. Mistaking efficiency and a checked off chore list for a good day done. I feel the lacking in the nostalgia that rises from reminders of by gone eras where elegance was at forefront of every consideration. Applying the Aesthe...

Evolution of an Aristocrat: On Polyamorous Relationships
http://evolvingaristocrat.blogspot.com/2013/09/on-polyamorous-relationships.html
Evolution of an Aristocrat. An Exploration of Neo-Aristocratic Lifestyle. September 12, 2013. Naturally, I've been thinking a lot about relationships lately and one of the considerations has been the number of people in a relationship: a polyamorous vs. a monogamous relationship. I thought I understood the appeal of an open relationship. Think of the possibilities in bed! Think of the gifts you could receive from not one but two people! Communication becomes even more essential. Jealousy is a normal ...

Evolution of an Aristocrat: What's in a Name?
http://evolvingaristocrat.blogspot.com/2013/07/whats-in-name.html
Evolution of an Aristocrat. An Exploration of Neo-Aristocratic Lifestyle. July 16, 2013. What's in a Name? It is impossible to deny that the historical term of 'aristocrat' has baggage associated with it. For centuries, the upper classes treated lower classes as chattel or less while monopolizing the money, leisure, education and culture. However, if we could step back from the historical connotations and consider the etymology of the word. Probably. But I am a unique individual and deserve a tailor ...

Of, relating to, or being a method of harvesting or using a resource so that the resource is not depleted or permanently damaged.

Evolution of an Aristocrat: RAC: What to do with Old Clothes
http://evolvingaristocrat.blogspot.com/2013/09/rac-what-to-do-with-old-clothes.html
Evolution of an Aristocrat. An Exploration of Neo-Aristocratic Lifestyle. September 10, 2013. RAC: What to do with Old Clothes. A sort of stunning picture. The zipper doesn't work. There is a hole in the material. There is a permanent stain down the front. The cloth is all but worn through. Two buttons are missing. So what to do? Second, if the material is 100% something and you have a compost bin, try slicing it up into strips and composting it. I've heard this from a few other sites- not sure how t...

Evolution of an Aristocrat. An Exploration of Neo-Aristocratic Lifestyle. July 31, 2013. What an Aristocrat Should Know: Part II. Isn't this a lovely gazebo? I am tired of people being nervous to commit to a set body of knowledge which everyone should know. These are a list of things that a Neo-Aristocrat should know:. 1 An Aristocrat (of all genders) should know how to iron a shirt. 2 An Aristocrat should know the quadratic equation. 3 An Aristocrat should know how to recognize at least three bird calls.
