Originally posted by Common De-mominator Like… Entirely?
Pretty much. Honestly think I stopped because I couldn't handle potentially having shit taste in music. I don't do well with being criticized about art related things, be it creating it myself or just appreciating someone else's. It's like my single biggest weakness. Mock me about pretty much anything and it's fine, but mock me for a shitty attempt at art or for liking someone else's and it absolutely breaks my heart. Easier to just cauterize the vulnerability by ignoring music. -

2019-06-11 at 10:55 PM UTC in I had another prophetic dreamI had a dream last night about a man who was so powerful he had to consciously modulate his breathing for the sake of safety, because if he were to breathe naturally it would be catastrophic. I've been watching a lot of WH40K lore videos lately so that probably had something to do with it. ๐คท
Point is your dreams (like mine) are fucking dumb, not prophetic. -

2019-06-10 at 12:15 AM UTC in Why are Greek philosophers considered more prolific and noteworthy than Roman ones?
Originally posted by Lanny The romans just didn't have much in the way of notable philosophers. There's Cicero, if you want to be generous, in like the late republic/early empire, then much much later you get Boethius and Aurelius of course, but beyond that there really wasn't anyone of any great significance. And even the most significant among them, Aurelius, was really kinda just developing on/rehashing the Greeks.
Largely the romans just didn't seem to care about philosophy. Their high culture took a lot of cues from the greeks but they just didn't really seem to be as concerned with philosophy. They used Greek mathematics quite a bit but even there I don't think the romans are notable for developing it. And I guess it kind of makes sense, even late Rome was a much younger culture than the greeks at the time of Socrates. Rome had developed from a minor settlement into the dominant power in Italy quite quickly and was at war for most of its existence, they had professional soldiers and a government built around warding off existential risks, I think it's fair to say they were a far more militaristic people than the greeks of, say, Athens, and as a result probably a lot more pragmatic. And less interested in activities like philosophy which takes a lot of time, requires a good bit of excess resources, and isn't particularly economically productive.
Plus, why would the Romans focus on philosophy if Greece was doing it for them at little cost? It's kind of like asking why America doesn't have as many prominent manufacturers as China. They reap all the benefits of Chinese manufacturing without any of the associated cost, just as Rome reaped all the benefits of Hellenistic thinking. The consequences of this reliance are similar as well, with America growing economically dependent on foreign manufacturing and Rome eventually becoming Hellenized and culturally dependent on the philosophers of Greece. ๐ค -

(Korea)

I dunno fam, architecture from around the world is beautiful and impressive. Even Africa. Remove the idyllic forests and sources of water from that picture of Europe. Just looking at the buildings, we're left with nothing that really exceeds the beauty of what I just posted. Europeans are really nothing special. ๐ค -

Clearly suicide. Poor guy threw himself down a flight of stairs, stabbed himself, and shot himself in the head twice in a fit of rage.
