Bring back intelligence! It's not about rationalism or empiricism, nor enhancing IQ through technological means. But, we must resist anti-intellectualism & enable a holistic understanding of intelligence that integrates the mind & body, combining emotional and mental aspects into a unified system.

The tragedy of corruption lies in the loss of good people—those we once loved—who have become tainted by our disdain, not for them, but for the things that separate us from them. What we hate is the infringement on our liberty and our rights. We resent the theft of our opportunities and potential.

I’m about to apply to grad school for philosophy. Intense anxiety has consumed me around rewriting my essay for submissions. What advice do grad students have that help unburden the weight of rewrites? #gradschool #philosophy

Nietzsche didn't realize how close his project was to feminism. The feminist philosophical project is a restoration of agency, and so was his—but the culture blinded him to the obvious.

What are we being blinded by today?

Cultural stagnation and brainrot are synonymous. Gen-Z culture is riddled with nihilism and absurdism, and both are just huge copes. Neither are real fixes, which is why we see so many Gen-Z returning to conformity through religion and traditional values instead of pushing through to something new.

Aesthetic history is important because when you blindly follow trends you are allowing history to repeat itself.

There is revolution to be had in poetry. It will return us to a time before the Greeks, taking us back to the reign of the free-thinker.

I am going to start taking up twice as much space—lay into the corporeal, project my spirit in the material, and go beyond my comfort zone.

Went to a beautiful installation of Islamic garments. The focus on slow fashion and sustainability, mixed with divinity, was quite beautiful.

I’ve always had an interdisciplinary approach to philosophy. I feel that at the highest levels of most academic fields, disciplinary walls begin to fade. I know philosophers who are in neuroscience, law, psychology, and business departments. We have to stop policing boundaries.

It’s a beautiful Midwest day, & I have been basking in the sun, reflecting on quitting smoking & how my relationship w/ going outside has radically changed. I now read, play w/ my pets, & take walks. Whereas before, I used to chain smoke as an excuse. I now affirm life🙂‍↔️💖

Since this post, I decided to start doing something about the issues beauty workers face, so follow me if you like #beauty #aesthetics #feminism #workersrights #philosophy 🫶🏻💖

Embracing the paradox of being an unserious philosophical e-girl with serious philosophical pursuits.

But at the end of the day, it's all about that ass🫏🍑

The way corporations are restructuing beauty education for workers should be called out for taking the humanity out of beauty and making it all about numbers and money

Indiana University takes up 13.4 percent of the land in Bloomington

I really wish there was a way to interact w/ the internet that didn’t revolve around being terminally online. My posts get 0 engagement bc I am an inconsistent poster, which is penalized by the algorithm. It’s weird to be ostracized for being reality present, abandoning escapism, & rejecting FOMO.

Seeing what kind of interaction I get on here: I am looking for essay and book recommendations about the body as an object. I have been going down the Sartre B&N hole, but I need more current discussions and perspectives.

The mental, emotional, and physical labor cosmetologists endure is ridiculous. I could talk endlessly about the many jobs they do and how exploited they are by industry and the public
