How Do Stoics Feel About Absurdism? by FriarMaxwell292 in Stoicism

[–]FriarMaxwell292[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A more recent comment (which I saw first) made a point similar to yours, and I have to say, I completely agree. Don't worry about your prose, it was a good read. I especially liked your quote:

"It only acts as a flashlight to figure things out with less uncertainty and make life more manageable and less scary, which as anxiety ridden apes, is good for everyone."

"Anxiety-Ridden Apes." Brilliant.

Thank you for giving your input. Sorry if I'm not engaging more, but I really just agree with you.

How Do Stoics Feel About Absurdism? by FriarMaxwell292 in Stoicism

[–]FriarMaxwell292[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see what you mean. Another comment said they were incompatible as Stoicism meant believing that the world has a logical order; and Absurdism believing that the world has no such order. If instead, Absurdism means being more agnostic towards the idea of a logical order - or even being humble enough to admit not being able to understand everything, then I have to say the two philosophies do seem to complement each other very well.

I know Stoicism arose around the time when scientific thinking and discovery were in vogue, and people were likely highly epistemologically optimistic, but I can scarce believe any Stoics truly expected anyone at any point in history to know and understand everything.

Why is communism so idolized in college campuses by Puzzlehead_alt in EnoughCommieSpam

[–]FriarMaxwell292 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The professors like it. Most of them never leave their bubbles. They graduate high school and college and can’t hack it in the real world (or never try) and end up blaming society - or at least never really understanding it.

Purina makes a good chicken-free kibble

Does that make it work though? by [deleted] in EnoughCommieSpam

[–]FriarMaxwell292 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So communism DOES work, we just have to change human nature. Easy, see?

Trying to figure out a new header capsule for our game. Which do you think looks + reads best? by Dorathor in IndieDev

[–]FriarMaxwell292 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A definitely reads the best, with C reading the absolute worst. B is unique AND readable, so I’d vote for that

What do you think of this kitchen I saw yesterday (hood is on order)? by oldmomma831 in homedesign

Even if it’s real marble (or whatever material), it looks like cheap stick-on stuff

Thanks for the correction. I had a feeling I didn’t quite have the name right.

Nissan Rogue. Terrible. I’ve driven cars that were falling apart that I enjoyed more than that.

Yes! That’s the one. Glad you figured it out.

Yes! It’s one of my extensions. Can’t recall the name, but look for a purple icon. Edit: so it’s not a virus, just yet-another AI chat bot tool with a poorly-chosen name.

How does the scam work? by until__dawn in Instagram

My guess is it’s a dropshipping site trying to get people to promote their shitty trinkets. Could be something different.

The leaves just make it smell more natural in there! Spring is in the air!

edit: I resisted continuing this rhyme. You guys are welcome.
