There is no news that is news that looks like the same news when someone else reports it. It is the most elusive thing, and it’s owned by the people who serve the same interests as The Dark Lord, which bonds them together. It might be that... in cocktail-hour terms... they don’t even like each other, BUT... when birds flock together, and when common interests coincide... you will find them in cahoots by natural grooves of pursuit.

I like to say what... someone far more eloquent, and closer to the mark than I, once said... which is, “by their works ye shall know them.” This is how I got into Trends and Patterns, and also Intuitive Physiognomy. In the one case, you look for consistencies and similarities in action. In the other, you look for similar characteristics of appearance.

You know how you see people and immediately like or dislike them, OR... at least find yourself attracted to or made wary of them... without any thought being involved? No conscious thought anyway. That’s Intuitive Physiognomy, and all of us are subject to these whims of automatic judgment. From here, I could take you through many a curious and winding labyrinth of rabbit holes that go all the way back to the dawn of time; even mere speculation finds a blind acorn now and again. This wouldn’t be speculation, though. This would be the way of the law(s) of association. We group things by common appearance, by proximity in time, and by similarities in function, and there are also... other ways of sorting and measuring in theoretical space.
