If a table is a table...then why is a table a table?
A concept is like a word. Imaginary. For words are thoughts, and concept, and reality. But... WHY is a concept a concept if a concept is a concept? Why are things the way they are? It could have been any other way. We could a been a hundred feet tall. And the world 10 thousand in diameter. Giants living in a small world. Or we could have been gelatinous blobs of matter just wondering aimlessly thought a dead universe. Or we could have been aliens in a planet of the apes with aliens mixed in. We could have had dragons and magic...and yet reality made itself strict A dot on a dot. Connections upon connections. Matter onto matter. Gravity. Light. Physics. Dimension. Decisions. And all sorts of bizarre alterations. Designated our ball of dirt and water as, Earth. Continents as continents. Man and women. Animals. Cats. Dogs. Lizards. Flamingos. Skyscrapers as skyscrapers Designated the human confition as indisputable. Things could have taken a thousand directions and at the end of the the day they all aranged themselves as you. Yes, you, reading. Firing electric signals in your brain to believe, to read, and know, and be. BUT If you are you then...why are you? (edited)

My eclipse experience
A little late but went to Dallas to check out what an eclipse was like. Got to say... I am pretty sure the world is going to end now
