Aneristic Illusions / Re: The Resistance 2.0!
Last post by DishpitDipshit - Today at 09:53:18 PM Now that the midterms have passed, I'll probably go back to being a critical asshole about the democrats, since I have strong doubts that they will do a goddamn thing to protect people or rights. At most I think that the dems will not be blatantly stripping them away. I truly hope that I am proven wrong.

Aneristic Illusions / Re: The obsession with control...
Last post by Sean - Today at 09:42:09 PMBy the way, the other day I look for how specialists formalize the odds of an event and I happen to land on this page listing current trends, but it mostly makes me realize how much theory fails as soon as a grain of sand gets involved. A player misses a pass, the weather shifts, and the whole mathematical model collapses.
So, I would love for you to share your views and experiences on this. Do you trust predictive calculation systems to guess an outcome, or do you think everything is pure illusion and randomness always wins in the end ?

Aneristic Illusions / Re: The obsession with control...
Last post by Sean - Today at 09:35:53 PMRight now I take a deep interest in how we try to guess or anticipate uncertain events, whether for friendly bets, everyday choices, or analyzing the dynamics of a sports match. My partner claims that only cold statistics matter, but I remain convinced that the human factor and total chaos disrupt any calculation.

Aneristic Illusions / The obsession with control : w...
Last post by Sean - Today at 09:32:27 PMHi everyone. Following what I shared in my presentation about our way of looking for order where there is none, I am asking a slightly practical existential question today. I know you have a critical mind around here, so I prefer asking real people rather than an ai or cold articles reciting theoretical probabilities without a soul.

Propaganda Depository / Re: I introduce myself
Last post by Sean - Today at 09:26:31 PMIt is my interest in the philosophy of chaos and the way everyone tries to rationalize randomness that pushes me to register. I look for people who do not take themselves too seriously but love to dig deep into topics. I want to read your feedback, understand your own contradictions, and share my thoughts when I get stuck on a concept or a line of thinking.

Propaganda Depository / I introduce myself
Last post by Sean - Today at 09:20:49 PMHi everyone.
I am Sean. I spend quite a lot of time exploring weird corners of the internet and I finally decide to drop my bags here. In everyday life, I operate a lot through an obsession with details and a need to understand why things rarely go as planned. With my partner, we spend our time analyzing coincidences, dissecting everyday absurdities, and trying to plan the unpredictable, which often leads to comedy scenes at home.

Last post by Faust - Today at 08:38:47 PMYes, I was being unfair there, it doesn't matter what personal reasons people had to vote against the laziest and most insulting of cons, they did do it, hopefully that will hold true again in two years.

Last post by Abbot Mythos - Today at 04:16:46 AMOn September 17, 1787, upon leaving Independence Hall on the last day of the United States' Constitutional Convention in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Benjamin Franklin was asked, "Well, Doctor, what have we got, a republic or a monarchy?"
Franklin replied, "A republic, if you can keep it."
On November 3, 2026, although most probably didn't realize it, "We the people of the United States, ..." voted to keep it.
So, I'm celebrating the win, knowing full well it's only one battle in the current war to keep the United States a republic.
