He acknowledges that not all beliefs are chosen. I do think it would be hard to argue that logical truths are indubitable. Most famously, Descartes' q...

This is a very limited epistemological theory that doesn't take into account anything other than matters of certainty (e.g. Cartesian logical entailme...

Do they yank out dental implants from corpses? I got no problem with a cadaver implant if it'll save me a few bucks as long as they wash the taste of ...

A guy I work with saw his father go through shingles, so he got vaccinated and he told me he had a rough couple days from the vaccine reaction. So get...

But where do you arrive at the rule that not partying is righteous? There's this ongoing view in this thread that says something like this "Come on, w...

Just typed in "dentists within 5 miles of me" and there were 12, and I'm 30 miles from the city, so there's a lot of them. Anyway, I've been going to ...

Drugs are only needed if you're having to wait. I broke my tooth yesterday and got the root Canal today, so there's no pain anymore. Actually called t...

OMG! Thank you!! :hearts:
September 01, 2022 at 10:05
I can do the same, except instead of being able to shut off my own pain receptors, I'm able to be completely oblivious to the suffering of others.
August 31, 2022 at 21:54
Can you do that root canal? I've got other things to pay for right now, and I'm thinking you're on the cheap.

The problem is that I couldn't find anything hard in the pizza, so I think it's probably a fractured tooth and the pressure from biting caused the pai...

Speaking of mouthfeel, I was just eating a pizza and I bit down on something hard, and my tooth hurts like a motherfucker. Holy fuck does it hurt. It ...

I do enjoy the thicker mouthfeel as well.

I think cod is thicker than haddock.

Limes green, lemons yellow.

Cod tastes a little more like haddock than trout, so that's how you can know it's cod

We must decipher intent from behavior. That's all we can ever do. That's how criminal trials are conducted thousands of times a year.

If desires are our purposes, why confuse the issue with the pesky term "purpose" and just instead say "desire"? I think we have the separate terms bec...

Generally I do whatever the mod group advises, so fired he is. I'll run down there and tell him.
