@burgwx I’m on mobile

@burgwx @burgwx where do I toggle this view? Can’t seem to find it. I live on the big island and this tool has been really greatly thank you.

@ImpulseLabs_ On your checkout page the cancellation policy link shows an empty pop up on chrome. So not sure if/when order can be cancelled.

@mbateman Check the kid for iron deficiency. Keep away from dog parks.

@paulg This analogy suggests that an ideologue’s cache works about the same as someone else’s. But that’s probably not right. For an ideologue a true cache invalidation typically invalidates the entire cache.

@paultoo This "narrative understanding" is very similar to the structure of scientific discovery that @DavidDeutschOxf describes in "The Fabric of Reality". One could say facts and experiments flow from a narrative understanding of physical reality. It's in science too!

@antoniogm Arendt was duped by Eichmann and got him wrong. But even then it is still an insightful argument. Same thing happens in On Revolutions. Reminds me a bit of Herzog’s “ecstatic truthiness”. Although you would hope for a bit more forthrightness in a thinker.

@JayNDonde can you share the thread about how IDF and modern militaries make decisions to bomb certain targets? Twitter is being buggy as hell and I can't load most of your posts.

@lacker Makes me wonder whether the comparatively mild version of “de-nazification” sped things up or slowed it down.

@DavidDeutschOxf @AliHagras14 @richard_landes Sartre?!! That is surprising given what I have read of your work. But I’ll take a look!

[Levy Klots @levyklots]

@DavidDeutschOxf @AliHagras14 What is a good book on the subject of the roots of antisemitism? I came across Arendt’s work on the subject. Is that a good analysis?

@yishan One of two things:
1. You’ve had an unusually important role in my life (FB, Hawaii) but for someone like that I feel I barely know you.
2. I have never run into you on island despite living 1 minute away.

It’s like you are both there and not there. But love you all the same!

@PohakuloaArmy Thinking about bringing a few 2-4 year olds with supervision. Is that too young for such an event you think?

@Noahpinion It does bring the faith into question but the result is that it will strengthen the faith! See “When Prophecy Fails”, a seminal work in social psychology, that established the concept of cognitive dissonance and the counter-intuitive result in failed prophecies.

@benadida I think you may find this episode about politics and unconscious enjoyment interesting. The quality of dialog is not great but the ideas discussed are deep https://t.co/NtzWrBBkSI

@benadida If you thought Lisbon was a gem wait till you visit the Azores islands. We visited Pico and Sao Miguel and both were magical in their own distinct way. Highly recommend especially for Boston folks since it’s so convenient.

@janmpdx Brothers Karamazov. And whoever replies “Thus Spake Zarathustra”, just know that I hate you.

[Levy Klots @levyklots]

@patio11 It’s like the capitalist version of the game “Papers, Please” yet even more soul sucking. Go figure!

[Levy Klots @levyklots]

@yishan They are either Syrnyky or Oladky I think. There is a Ukrainian stall at the farmers market on Saturday that sells pastries and they would know. I’m pretty sure you can convince them to make it as well!

@janmpdx @janmpdx do you know what the reading list for that course was? Or even better, anyone giving a similar series of lectures on the topic?
