  1. I wouldn't take it if that's the benefit you want?
  2. That's not fair. Users took time to think about and to try to assist by answering in earnest.
  3. What type do you have? I've had two removed, so technically had cancer twice. Have you received a terminal diagnosis?
  4. @AerisVahnEphelia Underdetermination problem
  5. Imagine if Palantir got it's filthy hands on this shit in some sort of horrific merge. Flock: reality = data Palantir: data = intelligence Some fucking Orwellian shit. Human misuse as well.
  6. This is what I term manifestation 😅 Literally visualising and outcome, putting it in my thoughts. Constantly. Learning and understanding how it works, applying and taking action in reality. Mastery. Manifestation. If you compress it down "I visualise with my mind = my thoughts become reality" mANIfeStATiOn is just a word to compress all the shit that occurs between thought - result that no one wants to inspect, let alone to deconstruct. The process of mastery. No one wants to talk about the repeating, habitual, daily execution that is required to get from A to B. Better to slap "magic" on it
  7. I think if we aim for understanding - we will need to know if a moral judgement is required or not. As a matter of definition. It is hard to have an objective definition of something when subjective factors come into it. Without an objective definition, understanding is harder and requires more work to be clear.
  8. Does a final answer involve subjective morals?
  9. "If your moral commitment is strong enough, salient, and psychologically integrated, it will normally constrain your behaviour." @Leo Gura is the above closer to your claim?
  10. Don't pretend like anything I say will ever convince you, or make you consider you are wrong. You have been systematically uncharitable toward me.
  11. If you cannot recognise, connect and acknowledge the mundane, average nature without us all - if you reject this part of you - you are more likely to reject the mundane of another. You will miss seeing them fully. It is easy to think we are all special snowflakes. But we are threaded through and connected by how similar our experiences, anxieties, worries, joys and passions are. This is what it is to be human.
  12. Please don't use such derogatory terms when speaking to other users!!!
  13. @enchanted This doesn't follow from what you said, though. Saying “Natasha, you're not alone; men also experience terrible forms of disposability and suffering.” can be compassionate. But if we then produce several posts about: male homicide, male war deaths, women outperforming men. Women receiving too much social sympathy & "female genocide” being questionable... then the rhetorical effect is no longer merely to comfort. It is redirecting the conversation toward whether women actually have it worse than men. It's not about that. No one claimed men don't suffer. It's an assumption to think others aren't aware of mens suffering.
  14. I'm personally wary of the heavy metals. It's a larger fish so has a lot more accumulation of toxic doses of various elements. Not that one dose will kill, more than the levels are higher in tuna which leads to toxicity faster with regular consumption. I think mercury is the largest concern I limit it to once a week in my sashimi
