I read The Invention of Morel earlier this year. It's great, and surprising in a way I can't reveal without spoiling the story.

Very nice. I've added folk to the thread title. https://youtu.be/3M7YAfc1-BU

:up: If you're anything like me you never log out, in which case you'll never see it.

The following message, visible if you're not logged in, is pinned to the top under the title Joining The Philosophy Forum: Those emails go to me, and ...

Disagree.

Great book. I had some difficulty with it in the beginning: I read the first two or three stories in part one, The Garden of Forking Paths, and though...

I wanted to say I didn’t know if we were out of the woods yet but I was worried that was just a Britishism that nobody else would understand. I was ju...

Adrian thinks it's partly because the posts on this forum are especially large. But it's mostly uploads. When I deleted the big ones I freed up some s...

Update: the disk was full again. I'll have to clear out a lot more files than I did last time. With uploads turned off I didn't think we'd fill up the...

There's a risk that Plush, our current platform, will cease operating before we manage to set up a new forum and move all the data across, so I've tri...

It's not a replacement for TPF or the place that TPF is moving to. It's to make sure nobody gets lost if the worst happens, or just somewhere to hang ...

For breakfast, a new discovery: vegan black pudding. The one I got is from the Simon Howie brand, and it's really good. Actually tastes like the conge...

Hello and welcome to TPF!

Welcome to TPF. :smile:

Cool. I guess it might have been an Iberian. Its hair was quite long though, so I don’t know. What I do know is that I’m quite hungry.

Saw a big hairy black pig today. It had some beech woods to itself. It was snuffling around and munching on the beech nuts. I'm not a porcophile but I...

Take pleasure in it while you have the chance, for a storm is brewing on yonder horizon.

Aesthetics is cool. It comes under philosophy of art, and we have a category for that. There's no requirement for elaborate argumentation; there just ...

I deleted it for low quality. If you want to critique philosophy, do it intelligently rather than with a rant. Note that there is a feedback category ...

:up:

I don't think so. If I recall correctly, I started it because there had been one on the old forum, and if anyone else had done it that would've also b...

It certainly would be if explicated and developed, because it's a good thought. It's because it's non-theoretical that it probably doesn't belong in a...

It probably doesn't fit in Philosophy of Art, but I might not have moved it to the Lounge if it had been placed there originally, because I just like ...

Aside from prison food, metal compartment plates are used a lot for Indian food. If they served that kind of food in prison I wouldn't worry so much a...

Chole is chickpeas (garbanzo beans) in a spicy sauce (also called chana masala), and bhature is puffy deep-fried bread. Lassi is a yoghurt drink. Yogh...

Indubitably. But what happens is that once I've found the inner beauty, the outer beauty of the book as physical object pales into insignificance; it ...

My updated suggestion is that you're talking out of your hindquarters.

The OP was not a hit and run. I promise I'll come back and respond to some of what's been said. Also, I'll remove any more posts that include personal...

There's also the fact that Marx and Engels were using the term Wissenschaft, which is broader than science as commonly understood in English today. Th...

Do you mean that he revealed this about analytic philosophy with his criticisms, or do you mean to characterize his own philosophy as exemplifying thi...

I give up

Almost. I fixed it for you.

:party:

Fish fingers in soft pitta bread with lettuce and sriracha mayo.

A nuanced view is possible, like the following from Allen Wood, philosopher and scholar of German Idealism: It's a great book, by the way.

Good question. I've now removed the capacity to upload, at least temporarily.

:cool:

Thanks. To keep the site running smoothly over the next while I've just deleted some of the bigger old ones.

You can use https://pasteboard.co/ (or other similar image hosts) to share your images here. It's very quick and easy. Any questions, ask me and I'll ...

Another option is to move to the medium plan, i.e., pay more money, but I'd rather not.
