July 23, 2021 at 16:40
So, how to bring that out of the box ? How about having pop-up pieces of creativity - as inspired by TPF, perhaps linked to the thread. 'The Symposium...
July 23, 2021 at 16:30
Amazed at what I am discovering on combining thoughts from different TPF threads - short stories, postmodernism, art - the mix of a who a person is, t...
July 23, 2021 at 13:14
And stories aren't just for competitions, are they ? I was wondering about having this as a long-term feature in the 'Symposium' where people could ex...

Excellent :up: And I know this might be a stupid question but I'll repeat it anyway:
July 23, 2021 at 10:02
I am reading this thread for the first time. I admit to never understanding or concerning myself with postmodernism. Perhaps I have absorbed the 'era'...

Is this what you consider 'evil' ? It is a natural feature of who we are, isn't it ? As well as its opposite. We create, destroy, recreate... It is re...

Ah well, now you know :wink: A story about life philosophy, and attitudes towards any perceived 'evils' or sufferings. I think a good one, don't you ?
July 22, 2021 at 11:36
Thanks, Possibility, that is indeed the story I was thinking of. I didn't know it was from the Huainanzi. Sorry for not @-ing you. I should have known...

Is that a good or an evil emoticon ?
July 21, 2021 at 18:58
You keep telling us about mundane stuff like this and why you can't discuss further. Nobody needs to know this. Seriously. As for using it as an examp...
