Exploring the inner world of chaos and meaning.

[Lu for Alaska @luinalaska]

I let my 21 year old son live with us for free because he’s single, he’s got a real job, he’s helpful, and he has saved enough to pay cash for a truck today so he’ll have no car payment. I will not boomer my kids into debt. They’re always welcome. He won’t be saddled with debt and unable to provide for a family on my watch if I have the ability and space to help him set up for success.

It is impossible to understate how much having a "classical historical education" helps combat modern propaganda.

If you just read old books, you can essentially undo all of the damage done by 21st-century fanfiction posing as scholarship.

@bowlingnols @Cookie_BigRick @JoelWBerry Can you point out where Michel Foucault advocates sex with infants? I'm not all that well-read but it does not sound like something a rational thinking person would say and I'm not about to google it. Also this has nothing to do with the orig. video which is an obvious joke.

@mrice97 Modern day Sisyphus. We are still free to choose to be happy despite the repetitiveness and meaninglessness.

[Philosophile @scispeak]

@Cookie_BigRick @JoelWBerry From close-minded hatefulness to acceptance of others' lifestyles. If you're bothered by this video, you should look carefully at your own agenda. This is coming from a straight father of 3 straight children. You want free speech or not?

@marketsmeowmeow Also, don't give up. Only this moment matters. You can always work on yourself. Slowly come to terms with your past and set new goals. You won't be able to help but find a new purpose in life.

[Philosophile @scispeak]

@marketsmeowmeow Thank you for sharing your cautionary tale. So often you see people bragging about their gains. Seems most of the time they are selling something or narcissistically bragging, probably omitting full truth. Most better off just playing with $ they can lose.

@sleuthslayer1 @Kevin12266263 @TicTocTick What got me from this vid. is the Dad has done everything that you would do to discourage their child, not talking to him to for years and finally he has accepted the decision so maybe they can start having a relationship. You dismiss that as "woke BS"?

[Philosophile @scispeak]

@sleuthslayer1 @TicTocTick Open-mindedness means you don't know what the future will bring. Failure as a parent for me would be if I refused to love my child for choices they make as adults. I wouldn't force any views on my kids, especially parroting bigotry and hatefulness found on social media.

For those under 50

Life wasn't like this just a few decades ago

Those stories of 1 job per family w/ a pension, wages enough to buy a house, a car, put your kids through college and STILL have a few bucks to save

Its not a fantasy

They took it all away for greedy corporations

[Philosophile @scispeak]

@sleuthslayer1 @TicTocTick Are you a parent and do you have a heart? You never know what circumstances you will find yourself in, better to be open-minded than just dogmatically "anti-woke".

[Philosophile @scispeak]

@wclemente What's worse is many people would prefer this distraction to the complicated and not instantly-gratifying truth of what you say.

[Lyn Alden @LynAldenContact]

I hereby propose a countdown for @elonmusk.

The @RudyHavenstein account is the single best anti-establishment truth/art account on Twitter. He's currently banned, unfairly.

Any serious admin would unban him if they have followed him for a long time. He's a good artist.

Do it.

Meekness is a martial virtue—

I am on a mission to reclaim the good name of the virtues, and rn I want to talk about one that has been slandered to death: meekness. 🧵

[Mark Cuban @mcuban]

Actually people are tired of the tribalism.

[Philosophile @scispeak]

@TicTocTick Kind of touching, thanks for sharing. As a parent of a 5 y.o. boy I wonder how I would react. I hope I can be open-minded and not destroy our relationship if that was his choice. I wouldn't like or encourage it but you can't force someone's hand.

@GraduatedBen Here's an article if you were clueless like me. https://t.co/u02bOFYMMP

@Crypto_McKenna @ThinkingBitmex King can't move to D4, he would be in check. Knight to F2 is checkmate.

[Philosophile @scispeak]

@ThinkingBitmex How about knight to F2?
