@erikdevoch7236 11 months ago Zak and the entire band made this album when they were like 16-18 years old. To make something that monumental at that age… at that time in history before fucking she/her/he/piss stain/ass clamp/lemonade….. is priceless. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lz1itJmb8pI

raymond geuss, utopian thought between words and action seminar, pg 340 Then of course, you’re going to say (and its perfectly legitimate) if it’s not the case that all forms of utopia are good, how do we tell which ones are good and which are bad, and then of course I say what you know I will say, which is that you can give some general principles about that, such as the ones that are cognitively closer to what we see the reality is like, but with those general principles you can’t get an algorithm that will separate them, in the final analysis you will have to decide on the basis of contextual factors. Then you are going to have to ask me what context means, of course. I’ve been through this – and then I’m going to have to say: context itself is something that can only be contextually determined. And then you’re going to say, well at that point, doesn’t anything go? And I’m going to say no, it doesn’t follow from the fact that everything is contextual, and that you can only say contextually what counts as the context, that you can’t make some distinction between what is reasonably to be taken as context. So I say, it depends on the context, you say – what’s the context; I say the context is contextually specified; you say how do I contextually specify the context; I say, that is something that can only be contextually specified. Then you say, haven’t you lost the plot there, and I say – no, because to say that what the context is can only be contextually specified is not to say there are no criteria at all for saying what it is, it’s to say that the criteria that there are, are in that context. So, from the fact that there is always a further context, it doesn’t follow that in any given context, anything goes as the next context. And at that point, generally, the discussion stops, and I don’t know whether it stops because I’ve won or lost, or because people have become fatigued.

richard rorty, contingency, irony, solidarity, pg 46 Berlin ended his essay by quoting Joseph Schumpeter, who said, ''To realise the relative validity of one's convictions and yet stand for them unflinchingly, is what distinguishes a civilized man from a barbarian." Berlin comments, ''To demand more than this is perhaps a deep and incurable metaphysical need; but to allow it to determine one's practice is a symptom of an equally deep, and more dangerous, moral and politi­ cal immaturity." 3 In the jargon I have been developing, Schumpeter's claim that this is the mark of the civilized person translates into the claim that the liberal societies of our century have produced more and more people who are able to recognize the contingency of the vocabulary in which they state their highest hopes - the contingency of their own consciences - and yet have remained faithful to those consciences. quoted alt text backfill: raymond geuss, utopian thought between words and action seminar, pg 349 As you know, I have a lot of criticisms of Rorty, but he did say one thing that I thought is right, and I think it's a quotation from someone else. He says 'it's a sign of civilization that you can know that your own beliefs are contingent, your own values are contingent, and you can stand by them'. Not of course in all

richard rorty, contingency, irony, and solidarity introduction, xv For liberal ironists, there is no answer to the question "Why not be cruel?" - no noncircular theoretical backup for the belief that cruelty is horrible. Nor is there an answer to the question "How do you decide when to struggle against injustice and when to devote yourself to private projects of self-creation?" This question strikes liberal ironists as just as hopeless as the questions "Is it right to deliver n innocents over to be tonured to save the lives of m x n other innocents? If so, what are the correct values of n and m?" or the question "When may one favor members of one's family, or one's community, over other, randomly chosen, human beings?" Anybody who thinks that there are well-grounded theoretical answers to this sort of question - algorithms for resolving moral dilemmas of this sort - is still, in his heart, a theologian or a metaphysician. He believes in an order beyond time and change which both determines the point of human existence and establishes a hierarchy of responsibilities 9 metaphorical" is bound to be inconclusive and question-begging. For such use is, after all, the paridigm of coherent, meaningful, literal, speech. Such arguments are always parasitic upon, and abbreviations for, claims that a better vocabulary is available. Interesting philosophy is rarely an examination of the pros and cons of a thesis. Usually it is, implicitly or explicitly, a contest between an entrenched vocabulary which has become a nuisance and a half-formed new vocabulary which vaguely promises great things
rorty, contingency, irony, and solidarity, pg. 18 Uttering a sentence without a fixed place in a language game is, as the positivists rightly have said, to utter something which is neither true or false - something which is not, in Ian Hacking's terms, a "truth-value candidate." This is because it is a sentence which one cannot confirm or disconfirm, argue for or against. One can only savor it or spit it out. But this is not to say that it may not, in time, become a truth-value candidate. If it is savored rather than spat out, the sentence may be repeated, caught up, bandied about. Then it will gradually require a habitual use, a familiar place in the language game. It will thereby have ceased to be a metaphor - or, if you like, it will have become what most sentences of our language are, a dead metaphor. It will be just one more, literally true or literally false, sentence of the language. friedrich nietzsche, on truth and lies in a nonmoral sense What then is truth? A movable host of metaphors, metonymies, and; anthropomorphisms: in short, a sum of human relations which have been poetically and rhetorically intensified, transferred, and embellished, and which, after long usage, seem to a people to be fixed, canonical, and binding. Truths are illusions which we have forgotten are illusions- they are metaphors that have become worn out and have been drained of sensuous force, coins which have lost their embossing and are now considered as metal and no longer as coins.

Raymond Geuss, Who Needs a World View?, 19 the future can be expected to hold surprises for us. Just as Marxists claim that large-scale “utopian speculation” about the future is empty and futile, either wishful thinking, an exaggerated projection of current fears, or just an extrapolation of present trends, pragmatists insist that the future is open, and we don’t know which features of our present situation are fads, idiosyncratic accidents, or passing phases, and which are not. If we did know this, we would not be in the situation in which we find ourselves. The concept of “truth” as traditionally understood prevents us from focusing appropriately on this openness and changeability of human experience, and thus constitutes an obstacle to free enquiry and human growth.

there is a degree of sleeplessness, of rumination, of the historical sense, which is harmful and ultimately fatal to the living thing
Untimely Meditations, Nietzsche, pg. 62 In the case of the smallest or of the greatest happiness, however, it is always the same thing that makes happiness happiness: the ability to forget or, expressed in more scholarly fashion, the capacity to feel unhistorically during its duration. He who cannot sink down on the threshold of the moment and forget all the past, who cannot stand balanced like a goddess of victory without growing dizzy and afraid, will never know what happiness is -worse, he will never do anything to make others happy. Imagine the extremest possible example of a man who did not possess the power of forgetting at all and who was thus condemned to see everywhere a state of becoming: such a man would no longer believe in his own being, would no longer believe in himself, would see everything flowing asunder in moving points and would lose himself in this stream of becoming: like a true pupil of Heraclitus, he would in the end hardly dare to raise his finger. Forgetting is essential to action of any kind,
