this past 24hr news cycle has been more critical of biden for violating institutional norms to pardon his own son for low level criminal offenses than violating international and us laws to aid israel in its genocide of palestinians. i feel like im losing my mind.

How do vou tell the difference between a divine being that doesn't manifest itself in reality to a divine being that simply doesn't exist? They're indistinguishable.

“A wise man proportions his belief to his evidence” - David Hume

I love this quote. I was indoctrinated and grew up believing so many things about the world that didn’t have good evidence to support them. Skepticism is vital if you care about the truth and want to be attached to reality.

Unexpected robot dog sighting at the gym. The owner said it was a Boston Dynamics knockoff, and honestly it was a damn good clone. Impressed.
