@Helenreflects I think it's surprising that more similarly talented people don't do what Leibniz did.. if you're a big genius, it seems only natural to find & engage the other big intellects of your age (Newton, Locke, Spinoza).. maybe the way he did it was not a good friend-making strategy tho

[Kate Kirkpatrick @philosofemme]

75 years ago #onthisday the first volume of Simone de Beauvoir’s The Second Sex was published. Within a week, it sold over 20,000 copies. Within months, Beauvoir expressed astonishment that it attracted the attention—and attacks—that it did.

@MikeBenchCapon @spinozism what if it helped them run a lot faster?

[λ☆woke☆🔥 (he/it) @DenkenAnalysis]

@MikeBenchCapon couldn't we put them in their backs?

[Nikki is an infernal shame @illocutie]

Some say having kids is the most meaningful thing you can do. But that's utterly one-dimensional! Really? *Any* kids? What if the kid is one of those gays who refuses to breed? Not so meaningful then, is it?!

[noam chompers @NoamChompers]

has anyone considered writing a paper about how their specific subspecialization in analytic philosophy is actually crucial to addressing systemic injustice?

Gonna start sending emails like this

[λ☆woke☆🔥 (he/it) @DenkenAnalysis]

@MikeBenchCapon that makes sense... maybe not, I will have to read and see ig. why do you think Spinoza believes/is commited to the multiverse tho?

[λ☆woke☆🔥 (he/it) @DenkenAnalysis]

Is Spinoza’s position really that the actual world is the only possible world - necessary - or is that just a funny way of saying modal concepts just don’t apply to the one substance - the world is amodal? (I’m finally starting the Spinoza reading I have been meaning to do)

[λ☆woke☆🔥 (he/it) @DenkenAnalysis]

@14JUN1995 that's spinoza's view ig?

[λ☆woke☆🔥 (he/it) @DenkenAnalysis]

@IsomorphicPhi no

[λ☆woke☆🔥 (he/it) @DenkenAnalysis]

@14JUN1995 well, of course Leibniz would say that, the question is whether Spinoza or Leibniz has the adequate idea of possibility

[λ☆woke☆🔥 (he/it) @DenkenAnalysis]

@MikeBenchCapon and you promise me that those reasons won't bottom out in brute facts about fundamental natures of objects tho? because if they do... it might just be a non-modal view in disguise

[λ☆woke☆🔥 (he/it) @DenkenAnalysis]

@CarloMonteschio I'm aware Spinoza has modal talk, I wonder whether he's really commited to modality in any substantial way or everything can either be cashed out in non-modal terms ultimately or the modals are merely epistemic. pls do tho
