Dear Tastycle,
if discordians no here
why me a dog can type???
For my part, I've replaced optimism and believing the best of people by default with a grin and the absolute 100% certainty that if they cannot find a pig to fuck, they will buy some bacon and play oinking noises on YouTube.

Okay, written off.
Quote from: Norman on July 04, 2019, 10:16:46 PMIt's true tho. I got good grades, but then I did a year glued to my bong and used more MDMA and shrooms than my brains, and now all the knowledge about science stuff I couldn't discuss with my druggie friends are gone. I know many more black metal bands tho, so maybe it evens out.Quote from: TastyCle on July 04, 2019, 08:24:26 PMQuote from: chaotic neutral observer on July 04, 2019, 07:30:46 PMI was pretty good at highschool physics before DRUGS.Quote from: TastyCle on July 04, 2019, 05:12:03 PMThere is no law that says a word must mean the exactly the same thing in different contexts.Quote from: chaotic neutral observer on July 04, 2019, 02:53:18 PMIf you say that the concept of social laws is detached from the physical laws then why, for the love of Eris, do they use the same word?

Attend a class in highschool physics, and you will learn that words like "energy", "power", and "momentum" have more rigorous meanings in a scientific context, which sometimes don't reflect how they are used in day-to-day language.
lolwut

I'd argue they map onto each other quite well. Molecule with no right to exist would be physically impossible according to the physical laws we choose to use to describe the world. The reality doesn't give a shit if it has to break those laws when they are bullshit.

I've seen people shitpost in facebook. They are not fun at all.Quote from: Faust on July 01, 2019, 11:30:44 PMI decided that university is for nerds, mainly because they didn't let me in. So now I'm gonna get a real job from trade school. How does one convince to itself and ones around it that it's actually unhealthy to be intellectual. Do I need become an unronical Pol Pot fangirl or something to save my ego?
So, how are things? (you, yes you reading this)
Nothing wrong with the trades, but there is nothing more dismal and banal than a tradesman griping about college kids.
Yep. Aside from the fact that college give you formal education in the basics of a range of subjects before you specialize, it makes you defend your ideas. It's not the only way to get those skills but if your GPA is on the line it's going to motivate you to do it. It also hopefully makes one realize that you're scratching the surface of subjects and respect expertise.
Society needs both tradespeople and academics.

2. I'm not sure about that superlative buddy Are you really gonna award me the title of evil overlord for just wandering into morally questionable side of the argument?Quote"raison d'etre" = "reason for existence" and you didn't want to use the understandable form of the term because..?
3. I'm not gonna google your fancy terms.QuoteDo you know what "sophistry" is, or do I have to define that for you, too? This is the reason intellectuals cannot reach people.
6. No, I didn't say sarin has a right to begin it's existence.QuoteRights are a social construct, not a physical one. A pebble on the road has neither rights or obligations. If I say that I think humans have the right to free speech, then I necessarily endorse free speech. If you say chemical weapons have a right to exist, then you endorse their existence. Social rights follow social laws, physical rights follow physical ones. I was antropomorphizing all the way. I even kept referring Sarin as they.
7. Stems from the idea that everything has a right to exist. Imagine if it didnt.QuoteWhat kind of amoral psychopath would give sarin a chance to exist? They wanted to end the war quick to minimize the losses.
8. If sarin cannot manufacture itself that's its own choice. We gave it a chance tho.QuoteThere are no good guys with sarin, because it is already illegal for mortals.
9. The only thing that can stop a bad guy with sarin is a good guy with sarin.QuoteSo which is it? Are you stupid, or malicious? ...nah, I'm just kidding. I already know. I may be braindead, but my nose still works. You stink.
10. You either keep mistaking stupidity to malice or you really want to make me question my morality. Or something entirely different.Quote...wait...am I talking to a teenage boy? Eww. I have handcuffs and shit.
If ya wanna take this off the streets, I have a comfy cellar. PM me for the address.

You could always cultivate an attitude of disdain toward the institutions of indoctrination, while still pursuing your own intellectual improvement independently.
Quote from: chaotic neutral observer on July 03, 2019, 02:26:06 PM1. Yep. Imagine if they weren't.
1.Chemical weapons (of the lethal type) are brutal, horrific, inhumane. (Let's not pretend we're talking about pepper spray and tear gas in this context. Not that I'm a fan of those, either...)
2. Only the most horrible monster would believe that chemical weapons should exist.
3. Sarin's only raison d'etre is as a chemical weapon.
4. Sarin is a molecular compound.
5. Sarin only exists if someone synthesizes it.
6. The unqualified statement that all molecules have a right to exist is equivalent to claiming that Sarin should be synthesized.
7. You have claimed all molecules have a right to exist.
8.Therefore, you have claimed we should manufacture Sarin.
9. Therefore, you are a proponent of chemical weapons.
10. Therefore, you, personally are a horrible monster.
Quote from: chaotic neutral observer on July 03, 2019, 04:37:51 AMWhy would I want to fit into your frame of valid answers? I bet you have already built heurestics to counter each of the 4 options you presented. That discussion would've been terminally boring, as we've both wandered down that path.
Quote from: chaotic neutral observer on July 02, 2019, 08:56:31 PMWell at least Sarin knows what they want to do when they grow up.Quote from: TastyCle on July 02, 2019, 08:30:49 PMSarin is a synthetic molecule, which is used in chemical warfare. It does not appear to occur in nature, nor does it appear to have any use other than killing people horribly.Quote from: chaotic neutral observer on July 02, 2019, 07:22:03 PMEven prions have NOAEL, our biology is just noninclusive.
Sarin.
Do you believe that this molecule, Sarin, has a right to exist?
