I retired 7 years ago and can relate.
Same. It's why I hate change. You know how much it hurts to regrow your brain? It hurts a lot!
It really depends on the capacity for knowledge.
Most people (these days) can painlessly regrow a brain with just a few YouTube tutorials, viral videos & a couple of memes.
Finally understand republicans
Dem property taxes!
why do our manymanymiles of roads suck! damn DMV taking forever! taxation is theft! downtown looks pretty shitty, they should clean that up more! I don't want my tax dollars spent on non-car infrastructure!
This is a great example in support of something I often think about. We see our consciousness as "me" and as "the thing in charge" of the body, but really it's more of an ancillary subprocess that the body runs for its own benefit. It's just a special subprocess that does its job best when it mistakenly thinks of itself as being the boss of the body.
Consciousness is 100% an emergent property.
Can you explain what this means?
There's no biological structure the creates consciousness to the ppint where you can say "if you have x, you're conscious", to the point where saying "humans are conscious" or even "only humans are conscious" aren't always true. Many elephants are conscious. Some dogs are consciohs. Some humans aren't. And no, the split between humans are/aren't conscious ARE NOT CORRELATED WITH DEMOGRAPHIC (fuck Nazis and racists), nor is it easy to draw a line in the sand because it's a spectrum.
It comes from having a brain that's complex enough. Decision making process start interacting together in unexpenced ways, with subtle variations caused by genetics and history. Literally just read the wikipedia page the previous person posted and apply that same logic to brains and minds.
Like why Reubens are so good. I don’t like salty protein, bread with caraway seeds, thousand island dressing or Swiss cheese, but fuck is a Reuben delicious.
Reubens are the only beef food I used eat in my 20s. I've since switched to seitan, but there's something about the combo that just works. The rye bread is a key part of it.
That’s why I said salty protein :) Swiss cheese is imo so unremarkable that the dairy free version is just as good, and a vegan Reuben is still a perfect sandwich.
I've never seen an organic political stance before... that's amazing.
This hurts, I got denied for a loan for a house a few years ago.
You should find a rock and then digest your brain.
Seeing your reply out of context made me think "what did I do to get hatemail this time?"
If this is a typical example, you must get some top quality hatemail. There's nothing quite like being told to digest your own brain to convey the poster's opinion of you.
I wonder if we can get the fortnite/counterstrike kids too use this instead of the old classic: KYS
There's just something more refined about it
Average US voter
They do think. It's just that they're bad at it. All the stuff they complain about is just in their heads.
I'm just glad I'm seeing the democrats start pushing back with the same vitriol republicans have used, and are finding out the other side is full of snowflakes who can't take the heat. Good job, USians! One step in the right direction. Get down and dirty with it, it's about damn time.
It is nice to see them grow part of a spine, but based on history, the Dem party leadership will nip that in the bud by next summer when the mid term election cycle is in full swing in a lame attempt to sway moderate and conservative voters.
again
Just because it didn't work the last 17 times doesn't mean it won't suddenly work now!
Fil was arguing Obama care shut down his doctor because too many patients were using it. Then I said hmm thats interesting so all those ppl didn't have health insurance before then? Then started blaming Obama for again for decreasing health insurance profits. I went to break Then.
These are some of the closest relatives of the vertebrates, by the way.
Sea squirt looking at us doing dumb things to the planet: ..... nah, don't know those guys, not related at all
I mean, it's not like we're the worst. Stromatolites completely fucked up the atmosphere and it's still full of poison billions of years later.
In that context, we emerged to thrive on and require that poison like some kind of ghoul feeding off a river of demonic ooze from hell.
Makes sense why we keep fucking shit up.
Me, rotting in bed
Me too buddy
Lucky bastard
