Hot take:
Analytic philosophy is *not* obsessed with word meaning. Correct word meaning is crucial to any discussion! 90% of pointless argument is because nobody defined the meaning of a word or the purpose of an endeavor.
It's like claiming mathematicians are obsessed with symbol meaning. Fah!

If your circle isn't discussing:
~ The 27+1 Dead Apostle Ancestors
~ One worships birds
~ One is a forest
~ One's left arm is The King of All Rats, the Third Most Beautiful Rat In The World
And is instead discussing:
~ Anything else
Then it's time to elevate your circle

"It costs nothing to be kind!"
I'm sorry but what are you talking about, it's the most expensive and dangerous thing in the world. That's why people who remain kind in all circumstances are such heroes, they're giving of themselves and voluntarily making themselves vulnerable.

if a stranger asks to borrow something, and it would not ruin you to replace it, i think you should always let them
in my experience, they almost always return it. you made their day at zero cost
but if they don’t bring it back, they needed it more than you, and you helped
thats a win win to me

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

if you're going to a protest today I wish you luck. The only specific thing I will beg of you is this: don't use milk to wash out tear gas or mace. if you see a street medic with milk, yell at them until they throw it out. do not continue to spread lies about emergency medicine.

The budget of the final season of Stranger Things is about half a billion dollars. Once it's over the world will need another "Small town losers vs cosmic horror" series and I know of one that could be made for no more than twice that amount, I think we could keep it under a bill per season

The weirdest bit of movie trivia I know: in the book No Country for Old Men, Sheriff Bell references the recent assassination of a federal judge. That was a real case and the killer was a hitman named Charles V. Harrelson... who happens to be the father of actor Woody Harrelson, who is in the film.

When I come across that I counter with an adaptation of another sci-fi adage in response:
"Any sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistinguishable from malice."
Somebody fucks up long and hard enough, it makes sense to assume there's ill intent at least in allowing it to continue.

yes, what's good about Stephen King, the author whose books appeal to and are respected by reader of genre fiction, general fiction, and literary fiction alike, is that "his posts are 🔥🔥"
Stephen King will never love you
