It's an American/English terminology/coinage/manner of speaking. The preceding "-wise" affix(i?)ation denotes context. Generally used when a lone word...
That. Or being polite about an interlocutor's ignorance and unrefined level of understanding about a topic in a way that won't offend fragile sensibil...
Gosh that's a lovely stump. Shame to think of what used to be there, especially in tandem with the careless whim of whomever created it from what it o...
While this is basically a fact of reality only a fool would dispute, one could, hypothetically, argue that "engaging" and "attempting" vs. being able ...
Bruh. I mean, all that aside. Scientific fact states the human mind isn't done developing until the age of 25. Beyond that, actually. If children coul...
@"Jamal" Trump's take on "Negative Dialectics" (watch the last 15 seconds, starting at 1:30 if you're not really a fan of the guy.) https://www.twitte...
While this may look like a porcine, and they might spill the beans and squeal, I don't think they'd have much interest unless you offer something that...
I feel a deep sense of unease and outright "disturbedness" looking at this "alleged" scientific supply website. Yet I can't stop. Not unlike this site...
I actually wasn't called "scurrilous" no, just the recent exchange in the "Negative Dialectics" thread featured the use of that particular word half a...
Sure. If someone happens to be, say, I don't know, grossly overweight or perhaps short or disabled and you just say "Ha, that person is .", that's qui...
I don't like the word "scurrilous". It makes it seem like telling the truth, attempting to clarify, or otherwise trying to protect others from true an...
Is this sort of like when someone watching the same sunset next to you says it makes them feel "happy" and "at peace", despite the two concepts being ...
Honestly? Little short of absolute monarchy I'm afraid. That or a literal Ice Age. :smirk: Frankly, and while it may be an unpopular opinion, I'd say ...
That's what it is! You are smart. A little too smart. Well, anyhow. I wonder which term came first and what sort of debate (if any) spurred the creati...
Indeed it is. And in fact has been done long ago, irrespective of such terminology, condition, or circumstance. It's called The Law or "the Constituti...
What would your response be to women and parents of young women who object to the idea of a male (biological or not who otherwise possesses a male sex...
The real question is: are people who claim to be something, especially young people, actually that something just because either A.) they've convinced...
I first read this as literally being "ran out", like as if you were forced out of using the Internet ever again by someone or something. Which inspire...
@"I like sushi" You've been away a while! Also, your channel is down. I enjoyed your musings. Great content during breakfast or even anytime when comi...
Like I'm trying to get into Jamal's "Negative DIaletics" topic. Now I understand. Some things here are just above my head. Which is why I like this pl...
Unlike these cheapskates (I kid, of course) I actually went out of my way to make something special; custom. Well, at least AI did. https://i.imgur.co...
Is that a "Yes" or a "No"? As far as the question of: "Do advertisements work or are near trillions of dollars a year and unfathomable levels of resou...
See, now this is a fair counter-argument or reasonable challenge in support of your point. More or less. Most would find it hard to even fathom an exa...
Eh, perhaps that was a bit of a reach on my part. But nonetheless, simply because " word against " happens to stand and seems to be of utmost permanen...
So, you're simply unable to imagine any sort of reality or situation where all of a sudden you're not in the position you have become accustomed to? N...
See, the thing is, I can tell you're smart. Well-educated. And I'd argue you should be grateful for such good fortune. Likely a combination of caring ...
Sure. But riddle me this. Say people doing a dangerous job in a dangerous environment say with electricity are communicating to one another. "Is the v...
Some lies are criminal ie. slander, defamation, inciting a riot. If I point at you and say "he stole my wallet" or "he just touched me/my child" and y...
Huh... definitely got a bit more than I bargained for with that inquiry and resulting reply. :grin: Interesting, and thanks for the (indirect) reading...
So first off this is just a beautiful post. For me personally, it's the genuine nature of it as if we were having an in-person conversation coupled wi...
"Famously?" No wonder I've never heard of the guy. The underlined random assertion simply doesn't logically follow the preceding factual statement. It...
@"Hanover": same. I don't have much to look forward to in this life, at least, nothing that hasn't become old, tiresome, and cripplingly predictable. ...
Oh please. Don't sugarcoat the lowest form of thought as if it was something even possible to dress up as or purport as anything but exactly what it i...
I did have to Google it. It's, well not technically a belt, but essentially more or less the same thing as far as any average person would process or ...
You can't "drink" a non-liquid. Dust on a belt doesn't really make much sense since, unless the person has been dead for quite some time, they obvious...
A risky venture, honestly. All things considered. Supposedly, from what I'm told, most restaurants hardly break even the first two years. Meaning, the...
What's complicated about it? Lots of people suffer, go through trials, have pain, misfortune, etc. In fact, that's pretty much par for the course. Wha...
"The same" as in can be used interchangeably in any case, context, or scenario? Clearly not. Nobody is, apparently. :smirk: Special? It must be, hence...
That's your culture and your people's take on how the world should work and how those in it should live. Stop trying to push your beliefs on other peo...
Let's take the bat example. I find it difficult someone of your intellect would find it surmountable to create a video game (assuming you knew everyth...
This is most interesting to me. Why not? Do you think there is an animal that is somehow more advanced than say, the average person? Surely such a not...
So, this would mean, language is not primarily for utility. At least, it has another significant function. Whether by intent or not. Sort of like how ...
Justified by who? One's self? One's social circle? One's town, village, or city? Anything greater than that is exclusively a modern phenomena, I'm sur...
That moment you realize... all of that IS the strategy and principle... (Hey I don't agree with it, but you pander to your audience. Cheap seats fill ...
Well, show us the post then. Do so successfully, and I'll never post here again. I'll offer that in exchange. Do you know why? Because I know it doesn...
