PTSD/C-PTSD too. Trauma can lead to a state of numbness and partial dissociation, like you're just floating (kind of apathetically) through your own life.
Huh? I explicitly said I would separate self defense for both sexes, because I believe those aren't what we are talking about. I wasn't defending or excusing "women".
Also, both women and men kill because of serious mental disorders ('insanity' in legal terms in the U.S.). How many of those maternal infanticides can be explained by post-partum psychosis or similar conditions? I wouldn't count murders by insane people (from neither sex).
I suspect you're not as unbiased as you'd think...
How many of those were self-defense (from either sex)? I wouldn't mix them for this discussion.
Ecce Homo is... interesting. Quoting Tears for Fear:
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
It's one of his last books and it's obvious his eccentricity is bordering madness already. It contains chapters like "Why I Am So Wise", "Why I Am So Clever", "Why I Write Such Good Books", and "Why I Am a Destiny". Some scholars say it's a provocative or sardonic way of presenting an autobiography; I wouldn't be so sure.
Thank you, although I'm just a master of none... Yes, I imagine looking for a job with a philosophy degree is limiting. On TikTok, I've noticed some recent graduates working on self-made projects (magazines, private classes, etc.). That's a creative solution that I hope works out for them.
I'm sick and tired of this Reddit-ass kind of "advice" meant only for neurotypical white men. Male defaultism is one of many things we should not import here.
Too late... Or maybe it was already like this before we migrated from Reddit. Comments are very black-and-white and tend to favor men over women, STEM over other fields (just read the comments here), global north over global south, etc. It's obvious who the majority is and how biased the opinions are.
It is funny because Lemmy is the leftiest site I know, and still these problems are invisible.
I didn't graduate in philosophy, but the little I know about it is useful every single day.
I guess monetary success is capricious in philosophy; they all cannot be Chomsky or Žižek (because unfortunately intellectual stardom is reserved for a few by definition in any given field). Also, academic environments are depressingly unfair and are influenced by ridiculous factors more than they should. But is money all there is to life for someone that most likely loves to learn, to ponder, to explore? Answers might vary among them.
Communities for news, papers, and general conversation around humanities and social sciences. Communities for underground music (e.g., goth music).
My first Nicole message was today. You'll join the club eventually.
They already got half of it in the 1800s. 1900s were busy times. The 2000s are for northern expansion: Canada and Greenland. God bless Donald Trump /s.
The land was already discovered, by the people living in it and even by outsiders like the Nordics. The people from the Pacific islands (I don't know if the correct term is Polinesia) are also said to have come into contact. From the 15th-16th century onwards, some outsiders decided to destroy civilizations and claim the lands. Yes, the modern nations wouldn't exist without imperialism and colonization, but I think many indigenous people would have preferred to develop and see the rise and fall of their nations during those centuries (and into the present) without said imperialism and colonization. My latter point is that it is not a "flex", in case you were thinking it is.
