Who is your favorite philosopher and/or preferred philosophy? And why?
Mine is Marcus Aurelius, and his take on stoicism. His "Meditations" (translated by Gregory Hayes) helped me immensely in my earlier twenties. From issues with anxiety to spitefulness, stoicism has really helped straighten out my thinking. It has also allowed me to take my outlook on the world and see it in wonder and awe with a child-like curiosity. I would even dare say that "Meditations" is a self-help book!

My favorite philosopher is Soren Kierkegaard. His idea of a "leap of faith" is particularly inspiring to me. He believed that we must take risks and make decisions based on our own intuition, rather than simply following what others tell us, or conforming to society's standards.

What do you think about prison planet theory?
I think it’s another attempt to give meaning to something meaningless. People struggle with acceptance that their life is just biological cycle meant to reproduce their species same to other animals or plants

The Sanction of the Victim
If you wish to avoid the trap and the errors of the sanction of the victim, you must learn to pronounce objective moral judgments. You must learn to distinguish, in any given situation, whether the fault is yours, or whether others are taking advantage of you unjustly. This is not always easy to... read more

The Comical World of Ghosting 👻
Ghosting! It's the new punchline in the stand-up #comedy routine of life. It happens to everyone, everywhere, every day; like caffeine, but less energizing. Honestly, it makes me chuckle now. It's the latest social norm that has swept across the globe faster than a viral #cat video. In this new... read more

Do you feel like your relationship does not matter if you can't tell that person everything about yourself goof and bad. I want to be open with people but I'm so ashamed of my past that I feel like I will never be able to find someone who can look past it.

Randomly felt pulled to this book
And I haven't been able to stop reading, which is crazy because my brain has been so messed up, and reading use to be my escape, so its a lot of levels to how great this feels.

Is science an ideology?
First we need to understand what ideology is. For the first time, this concept was introduced by Tracy and Condillac, who understood by this word the science of the general principles of the formation of ideas and the foundations of human knowledge. However, over time, this definition of ideology... read more
