I don't believe it's as big as a foot.

More complexity! :scream:

My claim was your definition was cherry-picked. Providing multiple definitions that all deviate from yours is ample proof yours is incorrect because n...

Oh excellent, we have a poster who cannot read or count. First off, there's no such thing as an "official" definition of fascism, which you just made ...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Definitions_of_fascism As I said, cherry-picked and exaggerated as a result.

Yes, wonderful exaggeration and cherry-picked definition.

Let's not make the world more complicated than it needs to be. It all works well enough and should be a good bit of fun not a tortuous journey with 4 ...

Glad that made you laugh. But on a more serious note and for more clarification: I was sucked into this story, the bird names kept me wondering whethe...

I think people are overusing the predicate "fascist" without really understanding what it is, with now both sides levelling the same accusation at eac...

"best democracy in the world"

I would've down-voted this poem with the shitty, heidegerian rhyme at the end. So I just saved his or her ass.

As I said: like sheep. Nothing to see here! :rofl:

It's a hint.

Am I the only one that immediately made this connection?

Change it back. It was submitted after the deadline, so too bad. Otherwise I have several updates I can provide for my short story now I actually have...

Actually, the system doesn't show that. It merely shows which thread you haven't watched yet, which is the same for every system of ordering: namely, ...

No, that's actually autocorrect. It was supposed to be "in".

To me it's all subjectivity. Different viewpoints can open up new avenues of thought both while interpreting and when writing the next story. I don't ...

Here's a picture so maybe you can understand it. /uploads/resized/files/qs/p17m4rrw8b2yc2hu.jpg I repeat. There was no disagreement on the existence o...

That was a paradigm shift but neither contested the existence of gravity. So a shitty analogy.

I should be done with commenting anyway.

Red, white and royal blue...

Typhoon.

Well, they're AI generated and I thought the poem was disturbing as well. Same with the other one really.

OK. So you have nothing to add to the discussion, failing once again to be specific. Then just kindly shut the fuck up.

I think next literary activity will be in Dutch. We need a handicap system to make things fair.

And then called him an idiot while doing so. Seems to me you don't feel that bad about it all and are now doubling down. :naughty:

@"frank" still waiting on an answer here: https://thephilosophyforum.com/discussion/comment/829000

I was travelling along with the writer on the stairs as he build his story step by step. Then he tumbled down and broke his leg and I was left standin...

What scrolling? /uploads/resized/files/c4/ztne18ye3v1j4qs1.jpg Are you using a Nokia from 1999 or something?

Seems like Tobias had a dream again. I'm missing the twist. It still remains in the bounds of reality and this story is begging for something weird to...

Tumultuously our cup runs over Warring words strike like thunder Afterwards kisses and hugs, my lover

Quite so, except that his allusion to a "science and technology group" doesn't square with this being the problem he was thinking about.

You still do. The thread title is bolded when you haven't seen the last comment yet.

Thanks. It works better for me this way. Hope nobody else is now annoyed!

Very good. I like it. Probably multiple causes any way, not least of which the actual material circumstances of its citizenry.

My theory is that with only two parties, political identity becomes much more entrenched. Part of that identity is hating the other party so even if a...

@"Baden" Is there any way for next time to lock the stories in place? So that they don't change position just because someone replied to it? I don't n...

OK, let me rephrase, I prefer the taste of fresh meat, fresh salad and fresh bread over the taste of pickles.

That's not what I said... :cry:

It's all a bit softer, less explosive tastes but that allows you to better taste what you're eating as well. If it's like a rollercoaster, you're goin...

Not relevant with respect to the intent that matters. It's not what he believed to be true. I can believe you're part of a Martian invasion and kill y...

Still waiting for you to explain what problems exactly are unsurmountable. What "group" are you exactly a member of? Or are you just making things up ...

To be eaten with particularly fatty and hearthy dishes to help the digestion. A bit like a side dish but in tiny quantities.

I'd ditch the red onion to avoid fisticuffs with the wifey but would like it otherwise. Don't understand combining pickled peppers and mustard though....

Oh OK. Different culinary habits I guess. It's an eastern European thing too to add pickled crap on sandwiches. I think it's a waste of good ham.

You're from the US?

Nice slice of life story and as such well executed. I'm not sure if there's a deeper meaning here, at least it's not apparent to me. Wondering if I mi...

Because the pickle will overpower the flavour of the ham, which a regular cucumber doesn't but it does give it a nice bite.
