oh and as a final word - the real issue is that religion in any form simply isn't a "live hypothesis" for me (to use james' jargon). that is of course unless you uses religion in the broad and empty supernatural sense that only the most ardent positivist would object instead of his other definition.

but james can't even appeal to the short term lol

nietzsche's got u covered

i mean kinda yeah

i have so many thoughts about this passage

asshole

reflection inspired by:

motherfucker

somehow it used to be closer

while we're here this will never not be funny to me

this was first messages post-stalking uwu

not me desperately composing an email tone discord message to keep contact with the most captivating person i’ve ever been around

i don’t know shit about shit

its funny that he kinda says as much but phrases it in characteristic pluralistic fashion alongside other definitions

rorty says this is his favorite passage from dewey and it makes complete sense i can appreciate it, but mostly in the sense that it makes clear where the battle lines are between the reformist and revolutionary pragmatists

@kasey.cafe talking about philosophy of math would be fun

again in my defense, this is what it looks like to run a simple cat command lmao

rorty is philosophically correct but politically wrong

its clear that he's very connected to his time and place, which is fitting for one of the founders of pragmatism i suppose, for some reason its still a little [strange? no. disappointing? no. idk] how politically moderate they all are.

the comments on my audiobook upload are hilarious

coming off the back of Rorty this comment is fascinating tbh

those edifying philosophers with the bravery to be hermeneutic in the face of systematic epidemiologists, those will be our heroic companions while untangling ourselves from the stultifying familiarity in which we find ourselves

what an odd persistent little trait, if i had to levy a conjecture i imagine it would be some sort of mangled historicist position became lodged in me in such a way that i could never convince myself that severance from ones past relations was productive, even aspirationally

so true so true

society if we let LLMs make porn and be racist

LLMs are groundbreaking, they said. a massive disruptor, they said.

girls when they’re the same person

forgot how bad this quiz was tho. the most egregious example being this question, which gives points for scientific socialism when you agree to something anti-marxist www.marxists.org/archive/marx...

yes meow :3 here’s another

can the women in my life stop deleting their damn replies

you all laughed but look at her now

hitler’s strongest soldiers be like:

the goldfish is right and that’s why schooling is bad :)

yea graeber o_0

it's not your money.

blame her

piggybacking on my boy N

rorty might be my favorite lib

the whole book is basically an extended meditation on On Truth and Lies

rorty and geuss are cute

youtube recommendations know me so well

radfem nietzsche

it’s actually (a surprisingly narrow range of tracks)
