“try thinking of it this way”

though i should probably stop directly engaging with futanari observer, the point is that it’s not jonas

also when i reply like that to her i hope it’s clear i mean it like “just go for it, im interested in hearing what you have to say” rather than brow-beating superiority

to defend indirect engagement for a moment: partly it's because i think squabbling can sometimes preclude the full expression and development of one's own perspective, and partially it's a matter of some positions best being best expressed in the tone "try thinking of it this way"

you can always just use your favored vocabulary and the proof will be in the demonstration

This sort of philosophy does not work piece by piece, analyzing concept 11fter concept, or testing thesis after thesis. Rather, it works holistically and pragmatically. It says things like "try thinking of it this way" - or more specifically, "try to ignore the apparently futile traditional questions by substituting the following new and possibly interesting questions." It does not pretend to have a better candidate for doing the same old things which we did when we spoke in the old way. Rather, it suggests that we might want to stop doing those things and do something else. But it does not argue for this suggestion on the basis of antecedent criteria common to the old and the new language games. For just insofar as the new language really is new, there will be no such criteria. Conforming to my own precepts, I am not going to offer arguments against the vocabulary I want to replace. Instead, I am going to try to make the vocabulary I favor look attractive by showing how it may be u11ed to describe a variety of topics

@tpiece.org i think you’d like

likes from the mary feed are the only records i would mind having a via field

i think it’s fine actually, like people used the expression before computer mice. felt less whimsical and more brainrotted in the moment though heh

tech ppl entertain the most silly ideas (not endearing)

i should’ve brought a blankettt

my brain is fried, i just tried to lock my apartment door by clicking my car key at it

guy who describes pressing a physical button as “clicking” is more fried than previously thought

hm i’m always just slightly incorrect

this right here is my pretty boy swag

im gonna evidence dot zip the united states government

wow my day was more tiring than i thought

i wanna join vc i think

but i gotta be mindful of energy

exposed to sunlight and i immediately have a headache

yay today was nice, it’s gonna be a dark week bc officemate is gone yippee

i’m just so much more productive

how i learned to stop worrying and get good at my job

now deleted

god that really hit though, so raw

it hit both for the bar itself but also in the context of the meaning of that post and my recent life, like post-willow has been feeling more actual but less thought about. the asexuality interpretation fits too tho lol

also *practically* actual

as in like both the practicality sense and the “roughly, not quite there” sense which makes “become” (past tense) even more crazy

incredible post all around. i made lots of sense of it

i don’t know if i should be approaching hegel so personally, as so down to earth and practically concerned, but it’s just so exciting

though i also see the tension of “being less thought about” and “thinking less about others” being an impediment to my actuality, which is a lovely twist

reposting for Practically Actual because that’s metal asf

developers are so cool, i wanna reply to emails in one barely grammatical sentence like them

emc2 takes like 3 hours to update itself

don’t have much to say, this too is recap

i should write something about the significance of the similarities between the cyclical processes of schizoid compromises in psychology and problematic situations in pragmatism and what they can learn from one another

this post is that writing

the cancelled ollie visit is still marked on my calendar and it makes me choke up every time i see it

i haven’t cried in a while, nice to know my heart still has weak spots

bring back at work feels very strange and uneasy

do you think it’s bad to park your car on an incline every day

my eyes are looking a lot better, dots are smaller and much less red. hopeful that they will be cleared up after the next two sessions. eyelashes got a lil zapped but that’s the cost of doing business
