Can you even construct the degree of fake sympathy for the innocents in Iran if it were Jews who were doing it?
The protests, riots, propaganda, attacks, violence against Jews would be WW2 like.
It is a sick fucking world. Humans can’t think with a few exceptions and their norms and morality are dealt to them like a dealer with his cards.

Just some heart-warming news to be aware or not…
More like blood-curdling than heart-warming. The Islamic Republic is a human slaughterhouse.
Never mind Panpsychism. Is there UN-psychism, Woke-psychism, Peacenik-psychism, MAGA-psychism, Trump-psychism, Media-psychism, Academia-psychism…

Another thing about food recommendations:
The committee saw a number of papers in Hispanic, Black, and Asian communities where dairy wasn’t a prevalent part of the diet, whether due to lactose intolerance or cultural food preferences. DGAC suggested changing the language to make dairy an optional, not integral, part of a good dietary…

I am not “me”, an unchanging physical entity. I am a sequence of highly similar spacetime regions whose internal structure overlaps. I once described myself as a “constantly merging shadow copy”. That is I am the person I was yesterday plus some incremental changes. Keep that idea going and each day (or minute, hour) I am a different person.…[Read more]

Panpsychism is an attempt to avoid “consciousness from nothing” by baking mind-like properties into the foundations of physics. That is almost like an argument for Creationism. For me, consciousness is an emergent property, not a fundamental physical property. It is not present in parts that can be assembled. In the same way that water mol…

Question for block universe supporters. That is definitely me 🙂
We don’t experience “motion through time.” We accumulate records and memories and have stable correlations between them. My brain at one spacetime location contains records of other locations. (The “block” is the four-dimensional spacetime structure). Nothing in block univers…[Read more]

Question for block universe supporters. If moving forward through time is an illusion, why can’t we have the illusion of moving backward through time? It should make no difference, right?

RFK Jr. on the Food Pyramid and Tylenol.
Will everybody stop with the talk about Ultra-Processed Foods!
Nobody has yet given a coherent, sensible definition of what Ultra-Processed Food is, and as is the case with our favorite Omnific Being, if you can’t say what it is, you can’t say that it is.
And where in the U.S. Constitution is…[Read more]
