Originally posted by ohfralala Well I might have been wrong about Zanick being the last true romantic of our generation…
If he can find true love, it sets aspark an endless realm of possibilities for the rest of us.
I will be his (second-in-command) knight of defense against all pessimism and cynicism with regards to love.
True romantics like us will keep love alive. -
2018-11-07 at 1:08 AM UTC in Unban KarenLegit, my homeboy Zanick is heart broken, and I can't stand idly by to see a fellow space-nigga endure such atrocities.
Whatever unspeakable thing this Karen has done, I stand before the courts, nay, kneel before the courts, and sing my praises for Zanick and his plight.
Release Karen from the stranglehold she is unjustly wrapped up in.
We must make this romance right. If you stand idly by without contributing your words of encouragement, much less your voting power in a (at least quasi) democratic NIS, then forshame.
Zanick is one of us, and true members of the NIS elite will not stand idly by as he is left hearbroken and uncomfortable. -

Originally posted by Glokula's Homabla so why did you even post this? do you think i havent heard of this before?
higher brain activity because im constantly stimulating my mind
Fair enough, but it's still a pretentious thing to say.
Most people are constantly stimulating their minds, and perhaps some more than others.
But those of us who are going above and beyond the average tend not to gloat in that fact. -

2018-11-05 at 11 PM UTC in How can a conscience be determined?Ok, there are two different things at play here:
1. A psychological conscience.
2. Morality.
A psychological conscience is the result of millions of years of evolution. Altruism has evolved in humans in order to create cohesive bonds built on reciprocative acts of goodness.
Now, when it comes to an objective source of morality, that is a much thornier issue.
One could argue that whatever nature gave us as a moral compass (i.e. a psychological conscience) should define morality, and that's that.
But of course, centuries of debate have arose surrounding such definitions of objective morality, or even if there can ever be such a thing. -

Originally posted by Zanick I think we have a lot in common! I major in your minor and I love it, and I'm planning to go to grad school. I might try to take up programming to fund my degree if I can find the time or the discipline, assuming it's still viable by that time for someone outside the field to get in on merit. Everybody has a different path, and I guess it makes sense for a lot of people to go to school with the expectation of a related career, but I doubt we've ever been that sort of people.
Philosophy is an absolute blast. If I ever do end up going back and going to grad school, it will likely be in a philosophy field, probably philosophy of mind.
Or maybe something along the lines of Heidegger's work. I took a class focusing on Heidegger's Being and Time and holy fuck did that course ever fuck me up.
And bruh, if you ever want any advice on how to effectively teach yourself to program, come to me. I learned so much through sheer trial and error.
My first bit of advice that I always give anyone setting out to learn programming themselves, is start with Python. It is as close to executable pseudocode as you can get, and yet it has all the bells and whistles.
That being said, another very useful learning technique is to do the complete opposite (as well as, not instead of, the above), and to play around in assembly / machine language. It really forces you to understand how all the higher-level programming languages (like Python) are ultimately translated into hardware-understandable code. -

He will always be my Mace Hindu. -

Originally posted by HTS That sounds nice and nostalgic. Reminds me of my youth too. *sigh*
How would our young selves react if they knew who we were to become, I wonder? Crack is whack, my dude. 😅
Holy fuck I wonder that all the time.
I kinda want to travel back in time and blow a huge hit of crack smoke into my 10 year old self and be like "get cool like me." :sunglasses:
But for real, to be honest, I don't so much regret the drugs, I guess I just regret the fact that I made them so central to my life.
If I could go back in time, I wouldn't so much warn myself about drugs per se, but more about the general need to consider the future whenever making potentially life-altering decisions. Sure, experiment a bit, but expand your horizons onto other things to.
Or something of that nature. -

Originally posted by Sophie Dysphoria is a good way to describe it. Weed is like the anti-opioid it makes me dysphoric and paranoid. Unless i like smoke a microscopic amount and have half a bottle of likkah before i do.
Man, if there is one thing about drugs and drug culture that just annoys the shit out of me, it's the 'drug-supremacists'.
I, too, get dysphoric and paranoid from weed. It is an incredibly unpleasant experience for me.
But all the drug plebs are like "weed just like, chills you out man. just take a toke and stop acting like it's a Real Drug TM, unlike all those chemicals you put in your body."
Fuck, for a bunch that claim to be so enlightened (because somehow weed makes you smarter than everyone else), they are pretty damn ignorant when it comes to the fact that different people react differently to different psychoactive compounds. -
