This is why we have RSS.
Yeah my friends and I have been reading a book of humanities theory lately. I’m an engineer. I’ve also been fucking around with a home server and starting an organization.
Yeah I like memes and such, but I try to learn a bit every day
Yep, Ars is great. The hate Elon gets in the comments is always a pleasure.

Me too…I’ve been stuck on quantum physics for the past 15 years. Soon, I’ll be able to start wrapping my head around chemistry and maybe some biology before I die.
i mostly try to keep busy with things, rather than stuff. Reading is a great way to learn, but you have to be very directed for it to be productive. Which to be fair, isn’t incredibly hard.
Find things to do that keep your brain stimulated, and exploit the ever living shit out of them, that’s why smart people exist. That’s what they do really well. Knowledge is 50% of intelligence.
Ohhh thanks for sharing that site, it’s lovely!
This…feels too accurate. I don’t like this. No one told you to wake up today and call me out. :(
That’s right! It goes in the square hole!
I got a crush on that girl.
I need to understand everything, memes included
Based
sociology, while fun, is i think, the closest thing there is to hell on earth.
Nihilism is the brain child of philosophy. Same for anti-natalism. Sometimes it’s fun though, others it’s just a fucking mess.
Nihilism is the brain child of philosophy
But so is existentialism, absurdism, cynicism, and whatever Nietzsche was on about, which all refute nihilism.
Every time I understand another horrible aspect of human society, I desperately wish for the “fuck go back” button to be real.
Ignorance is a lot more comfortable in the face of seeing all the problems for what they are, and being so near powerless to do anything about them, you may as well be.
i like the feeling of my brain being in pain trying to conceptualize something. It’s like the most primal form of confusion.
I blame stress/responsibility/burnout. Kids/teens generally have more time to enjoy learning.
The first one gets exploited, the second one can become president. Welcome to the age of information, everyone.
Your brain just needs more practice at being bored. Then you’ll be able to enjoy long form content again.
Control your dopamine intake.
It’s not because your body produces it that it’s necessarily good for you.
Those are all things I say to myself every once in a while just so you don’t think I’m coming at you with any sense of higher ground.
I like this meme.
