The Hail Mary Dynamite

What I call homo-sapiens who have abscesses.

Person 1: Do you have an abscess?
Person 2: Yes.
Person 1: Good...you are now "The Hail Mary Dynamite".

Theory of Constructed Dynamics

The view that the perceived "energy" or "flow" of social situations—momentum in a movement, tension in a room, stability in an institution—is not a mystical force but is built from countless micro-actions, shared perceptions, and feedback loops. The "dynamic" is an emergent property constructed by the participants in real-time through their words, silences, body language, and adherence to unspoken scripts.

Example: "The meeting had a 'toxic dynamic.' The Theory of Constructed Dynamics says that wasn't a fog in the air. It was built minute-by-minute: the manager's dismissive sighs, the team's hesitant silence after a failed joke, the way side-conversations validated frustration. The dynamic was a fragile, co-constructed artifact, as buildable (and breakable) as a house of cards."

Theory of the Dynamics of Scientific Paradigms

The study of the lifecycle of a paradigm: its birth in a revolutionary insight, its consolidation during a period of "normal science," its gradual erosion as anomalies accumulate, and its eventual collapse and replacement. This theory looks at the internal and external forces—technological, social, economic—that drive these dynamics, treating science as a historical and sociological process, not just a logical one.

Theory of the Dynamics of Scientific Paradigms Example: The Dynamics of the Newtonian Paradigm followed this path: revolutionary triumph in the 17th century, two centuries of triumphant "normal science" applying its laws, the creeping anomalies of Mercury's orbit and blackbody radiation in the 19th century, and final overthrow by the twin revolutions of relativity and quantum mechanics in the early 20th century.

Theory of Social Dynamics

The study of the patterns, processes, and forces that cause change and stability in human societies. It focuses on the mechanics of how social structures, institutions, norms, and relationships evolve over time through mechanisms like innovation, diffusion, conflict, cooperation, and adaptation. It's more granular and mechanical than dialectics, looking at the "how" of social motion rather than the overarching philosophical conflict.

Example: Using Theory of Social Dynamics, a sociologist might study how the social media algorithm's incentive for outrage (a force) dynamically reshapes political discourse, accelerates the formation of polarized in-groups and out-groups, and destabilizes traditional media institutions, mapping the causal pathways of this digital social change.

Law of Dynamics-Complexity of Sciences

The foundational principle that for any field of inquiry to qualify as scientific, it must study either dynamic systems (systems that change over time), complex systems (systems with interacting components that produce emergent behavior), or both. Static, simple systems may be mathematically describable, but they're not truly scientific—they're just puzzles. The law of dynamics-complexity explains why physics is science (dynamic, often complex), why biology is science (definitely both), and why some fields struggle for scientific status—they're studying phenomena that are either too static, too simple, or both. This law also explains why your love life feels like an unscientific mess: it's dynamic, complex, and completely resistant to prediction, which actually makes it more scientific than a simple, predictable system. Small comfort.

Law of Dynamics-Complexity of Sciences Example: "He tried to argue that astrology was scientific because it made predictions. She invoked the law of dynamics-complexity: 'Science studies dynamic, complex systems. Astrology treats human lives as simple, static outputs of planetary positions. That's not science; that's just wrong.' He said the planets were dynamic. She said not dynamic enough. The argument was dynamic and complex, which at least made it scientific."
