Every other human around you has almost the same genes as you. Just being kind to others is already a tiny contribution to the survival of the species and the genes we share. Pretty sure one would have to be actively suicidial or a Bond villain in order to not to help the genes that survive on with every breath anybody ever takes.
- Comment on The hills are alive with the sound of music! 🎶🎵 3 weeks ago:
It’s not limited to direct reproduction of one’s own genes. Keep in mind that we live in a society. Contributing to that society means helping others of our species (with almost the same genes) pass their genes on. Just being kind to others is already great. You’re valid.

Fair point, but despite how we as a society treat artists, I still think that the underlying impulse to do art is an attempt to capture the interest and appreciation of others, building social bonds. Rarely is art made without a tought of presenting it to others. This is how art seems to happen with every other species on earth that does it.
- Comment on The hills are alive with the sound of music! 🎶🎵 3 weeks ago:
Perhaps not with conscious intent. I suppose even staying alive and contributing to a society still means that you help your relatives pass their genes on. Even gay penguins do this when they adopt an orphaned egg.

If you really boil it down, all that any species ever does is in some way an attempt to propagate its genes. We aren’t any different either. The artistic spark that got Davinci to paint the Mona Lisa was there due to such behaviour being an evolutionarily beneficial trait (being good at art increases the social standing of a person and thus increases their chances of reproduction). I don’t want to sound cynical about this because I’m not. That’s just life. It really doesn’t matter. The painting is still beautiful.

I think someone is just utterly clueless about how any of this works, and decided to wipe the slate clean and start again.

Or maybe they just left it in a cold place for a while. Strong spirits freeze at around -27°C and Jaegermeister (35%) freezes at around -19°C.

Identity is just something our brains invent to better make sense of the world. It doesn’t exist as anything other than a thought. You are the universe and the universe is me. The only thing that goes away when anything “dies”, is the illusiory and self-imposed border between the “individual” and the rest of it all.

Also the environmental impacts. I don’t own a huge polluting coal powerplant that is actively contributing to fucking up the planet that I live on, and as such I’m still allowed to criticise them. Why should the meat industry be any different?

This. The meme is inaccurate in that the polar vortex is in fact currently unusually strong. It’s just unusually shaped placed. I hope the two following images show up correctly.

No. An object within the event horizon is still reflecting light just as it was before falling in. The only difference is in relation to where that reflected light can or cannot go from there.
- Comment on I wanna ROCK 4 months ago:
That is what I said, yes.
The point being that the event horizon deals with the structure of spacetime, while reflectivity is a material property. An object doesn’t get painted with vantablack when it passes the event horizon.
- Comment on I wanna ROCK 4 months ago:
The event horizon only obscures objects that are inside it, it has nothing to do with reflectivity of the object itself.
An observer situated between the singularity and an object within the event horizon could still intercept the light reflected from said object.
- Comment on I wanna ROCK 4 months ago:
No event horizon is made up of matter. Do you mean the matter around and behind the black hole, by which the location and size of the black hole can be inferred?

Ahchchcually USA has by far the most metal bands, but yeah Finland leads the per capita list by far.
- Comment on I wanna ROCK 4 months ago:
The event horizon isn’t a physical object. Does a singularity reflect light? (I’m guessing it’s still a no)
