But what about "the medium is the message"? I haven't read the book, but I'm remembering a quote mentioning how the technological mediums become extensions of our nervous systems, through this optic, internet and devices maybe really do have this kind of potency...

I guess it's cause cursive is no longer a thing in the US..

So now we're supposed to become the idea guy? Goddamnit.

I was put off too, this money speak now feels way too stale and lifeless for me.

My dad always had a notorious sleep apnea but also has notoriously been strong & 'youthful' all his life, very active, even up to this day at almost 70(never working desk jobs, always moving, etc). This always leaves me wondering about how relevant & impactful this kind of thing really is..

How about the seasoning? Years ago I used to do this microwave rice but I threw in some powdered flavoring and it would boil & stick everywhere :/

How old?

Old-school internet vibes

To me just like driving there should be a policy that mandates people respect & act in a way that both you & everyone can move freely and comfortably, lightly, this would be an actual order. We need something like alien philosophy/religion and let us be ruled by it, or, like, everybody just start acting japanese.

Fellow nic addict of 18 years here. If you haven't yet I'd recommend trying out Tabex. I'm still addicted but was able to cut it off by like 85% this year with its aid.

You can find some things online on a thesis that some nicotine addicts could be self-medicating indeed.

I dunno about young people, but me and some acquaintances discovered and got into stoicism and we just mixed it up with whatever we enjoyed before and that was anarchism, leftism, critical reasoning, philosophy, science, history, etc. It was just something else that was orthogonal..

Bigots get way too much credit?

'we' who?

Its in the words themselves, society is not culture, society means bonding of people/association to a thing, generally implied "civil society". This has nothing to do with some guy being a punk rocker skateboarder anarchist and the other a Mormon and the other a rural farm guy, that they cannot be a part of the same society. That's just not it.
