We poke fun at your love for these simplistic cartoons. You reply, “misogyny”!!

Can you feel my low-hanging fruit?

My friend, a girl, was having trouble loading a large pumpkin into the back of her subaru hatchback. I, a boy, offered to help, but she refused.
After 5 minutes of this her strained whimpering became too much to bear. So I put the pumpkin in there for her.

If you like to play with a good toy now and then, that says something about you.
Also consider, this toy involved no fantasies of mass murder.

My friend was told by a psilocybic manifestation that the mushroom is the body of a wizard from a thousand universes away who’s here to introduce us to the larger world and hold our hand and such.

Nuh. My links are stronger than your links

Ow, my ego

True level must be like true symbols (like, in the idea that there are true names and words. Like a divine language).
If you have a true level or symbol then you have something, just as good as reality, but manipulable like language. The best of both worlds.
And even better, you need never leave the confines of the inside of your mind ever again. You can live, within your construct of perfect god-language, and interact with the world from there. Safe and powerful.

That’s definitely an option
Another option is a little of all three, marrying none.

I start nice then my disgust starts outweighing my reason and it’s downhill.
Then the patronizing vultures swoop in.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
Well the fellow that I replied to implied that understanding is necessary for agreement/disagreement. And then I said that it ain’t so.
So you might try addressing that very definite and relevant point.

Yes, in the ideal world, the sheepherders are wise friends and behaving as a sheep (let’s not quibble) is the winning strategy.
But I dislike sheep.

Expertise is a thing? Really? Well now I have seen the light.
Thank you for stooping to aid this pitiful worm, in his confusion. You truly are a kind and generous soul.
But really. You people act like 12th century Christian zealots about this stuff.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
Gee, nobody can accuse you of overlooking the obvious.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
I think that you are too dumb for this conversation.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
Don’t be defensive, address my point instead.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
I’m disputing the confidence with which you people assert your secondhand truths and persecute unbelievers. You are behaving like cattle, herded by a glowing screen.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
But you don’t know if he’s an expert. You’re going on pure theater.
You people have all the epistemological rigor of 12th century villagers.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
Knowing isn’t required for either believing or disbelieving.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
You insinuate that these people might be gullible dopes who swallow whatever it’s popular to swallow, no brains involved.
We have a zero tolerance policy for that attitude.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
It wouldn’t even be less. We’d just have to reign in the capitalist feeding frenzy a bit.
2000 brands of shoes? Advertising? 99% of our production is wasted.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
But you people will believe anything that science guy says. All he has to do is say stuff like “chloroflurocarboins” and you get a hardon.
- Comment on CFCs 1 month ago:
I dunno man. Does believing the popular narrative really make you smart? Does disbelieving it really make you dumb? I don’t think so.

You are merely seeing through pedantic eyes.

When you zoom in on those pristine facets it looks like a gravel driveway

You could get serious Van der Waals off a couple sheets of that.

Not to mention quantum fuzzing
- Comment on Do straight lines and flat planes exist in nature? 1 month ago:
Curved space, perturbations from air currents, molecular irregularities, quantum fuzz
I was thinking a ray of light. But even then.
- Comment on Do straight lines and flat planes exist in nature? 1 month ago:
Right after they mow, otherwise it’s rather fluffy.
- Comment on Do straight lines and flat planes exist in nature? 1 month ago:
Then, o pedant, do straight or flat objects (thus linelike, planelike) exist?
