I was asking myself this as there were several construction sites in my area with cranes appearing and disappearing all the time until I did catch them!
- Comment on My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories 1 week ago:
But that’s my point. There is access to healthy food and there are no food deserts because people care about food. Of course there is still crappy food.
- Comment on My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories 1 week ago:
I would say this holds true for the USA considering all this fast “food” they eat. A culture that loves food doesn’t do this.

Is this the Saul who became Paul? So he didn’t become good he just changed his name and defined what is good?
- Comment on Outer Wilds drawing I made 3 weeks ago:
I understand you. The DLC is scary af but not really horror. There is nothing more malign there than the anglerfish i the base game and as you may have noticed this creature chasing you doesn’t even make you die.

No, having kids now I am sometimes super tired only being able to function for the daily activities without much planning and thinking about others. This made me realize this state (or even worse) is probably normal for a lot of people.

Now I am wondering about the reason Kashoggi was killed. Maybe he found out about all these connections.

Even your bread is full of sugar.
- Comment on Anon travels overseas 5 weeks ago:
Carbs are much worse than fat. So drinking dozens of grams of sugar every day and putting sugar in every food is worse than eating fatty food.

This is also a common philosophical argument to not eat meat. How we mistreat and kill animals negatively affect the humans who do it.

Going to eat as a first date is bad anyways. Should do something where you are a not forced to sit in front of each other for a fixed amount of time. Why not go for a walk in a park, take a coffee or other things that are more “open”.

Interesting categories, but I don’t find myself in any of them: We don’t know if there is a god therefore I neither believe in its existence nor in its non-existence because it doesn’t matter anyway. If god(s) exist they either don’t affect human lives or they do it without letting us know how and why. In both cases there is no reasons to change anything in my life.
I think this view is called apathetic or pragmatic agnosticism.
- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 2 months ago:
I don’t know but there are probably explanations. One that I could imagine is that there really is only one consciousness or soul that splits itself up in as many parts as it wants to experience the universe and itself.
You could ask questions like that about the belief that there is no reincarnation or soul as well. Where does consciousness come from? What is it? How can electrochemical reactions be the equivalent of tasting a pizza?

Sounds rather arrogant to me to think there is a default position for something like that.
- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 2 months ago:
I am rather saying it is nothing we can prove or disprove and both views ar equally legit. It just seems to us one view is more legit because of our cultural background.
- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 2 months ago:
Same as with God? I don’t think so. Don’t you think there are things that cannot be proven or disproven? My point is the default position depends on the cultural background.
- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 2 months ago:
That’s exactly my point. What’s the concrete data against reincarnation would someone from a buddhist culture ask (probably even when they aren’t religious). I am just saying what we accept as default and for what we demand evidence depends on the cultural background.
I might have formulated it exxagerated. But believing in “YOLO” is as evidence based as believing in reincarnation.
Similar as atheism is a belief as well: believing that there is no god. How do they know? It seems my point of view is more agnostic than most here.
