  • The US is actually going to implement a nationwide abortion ban and the measures for how it's gonna be handled are already in the works

  • I seriously doubt that. It's rabble rousing.

  • How do you think independently?

    Jump

  • I think that isolating oneself in a cave might be best.

    Imagine an illusion, the matrix, built not of scifi machinery but of habit, maintained by the presence of others.

    Get alone and the habits dissolve. And then the invisible becomes visible.

  • Because drugs are bad mmmkay?

    And drugs are defined by tv shows. Drugs are pills.

    Also, talk about drugs anywhere and you'll encounter 40-somethings with an unreasonable hatred of drugs. They get crazy. That's the "just say no" propaganda talking. It was pushed in the schools in the 80s, and we still hear the echoes.

    It's a testament to the power of media and propaganda.

    Hanna has chosen to emigrate to Equestria and to change her name to Princess Luna. She is a very pretty pony.

  • I might add, "become comfortable with uncertainty". Because nothing drowns you in a swamp of bullshit like an excessive need for certainty.

    You sure are, dipshit.

  • Repeating "they are bad and dumb" ad nauseum is no way to inspire sane conversation. It's just echo chamber circle jerk.

    The fact that this is a real image is infuriating

  • I find that the people who use terms like "right wing loser" are indistinguishable from the people who use terms like "left wing loser".

  • That's fair. But I actually admire the guy. And you people tend to witch-hunt like a bunch of Monty Python extras on crack. So you see where I'm coming from.

  • our thoughts are given form by language and vocabulary

    And our experiences, and our intelligence, too. Right?

    Which makes the challenge one of navigating that mess.

  • No. Can you link me?

    EDIT

    ok, watched the video. Ya, that's a pretty fascist salute there.

  • There is the theory that we feel emotions first and then we think only to justify the emotion.

    This would imply that it isn't the thinking that needs to be managed but the emotions.

  • Everything written by Greg Egan for the first decade or so of his writing career

  • You read an article, written by somebody you never met, accusing a person you never met, citing evidence you never saw. Now you feel angry at the accused person. What does that make you?

    Jump

  • Sure

  • Paying attention is actually ignoring because when you pay attention to one thing you ignore everything else.

  • Ever tried to play a difficult video game while also baking a batch of cookies and discussing Christmas plans with your parents?

    You see how it works.

  • What big tropes are found in the movies of some cultures but pretty much absent in others?

    Jump

  • Godzilla (Japan). In one zap of the breath weapon takes out 100,000 people. No pause for reflection or comment on the meaning of it. Just immediately cut to next scene.

    We don't do that in USA

  • Immortal 2004. (A very kickass movie if you haven't) (French). Horus (The egyptian god) has this relationship with Nickopol (badass poet/politician). It's hilarious. Horus sees humans as at best children or pets or disposable tools. There's no aside or smirk or "yeah but..". No, they just go with it 100%. 100%! That's something you don't see too often.

    Reality is made of the physical world and talk, but talk has recently gotten much bigger. How has this changed reality?

    Are the dreams of youth the regrets of maturity? Really?
