What job bro? Hope a good one, brosophicus.
July 21, 2018 at 21:52
Bro, I am so bummed right now. I don't know what to say. The poverty is so unbrotherly right now...
July 21, 2018 at 21:49
Bro, that was brosophiny brolequent. I bronot compare.
July 21, 2018 at 21:42
Brudda, I have no money for beer. The butthurtness is unbelievable!
July 21, 2018 at 21:38
Yah, brosophicus...

I'm a solipsist! AMA
July 21, 2018 at 19:34
If I were a solipsist, yes.
July 21, 2018 at 17:37
All three, although #2 isn't me redefining solipsism, I think.
July 21, 2018 at 16:37
I'm still not getting the discrepancy between what and that statements for a solipsist. In my mind, they are both the same for a solipsist...
July 21, 2018 at 16:37
What do you mean by that? I read the thread; but, in my opinion differences between that and what get muddy when confronted with solipsism due to the ...
July 21, 2018 at 15:36
So, you're saying that the belief that I am a solipsism, is open for doubt? Again, that's not solipsism. I must be certain that everything I believe i...
July 21, 2018 at 15:32
Well, if a solipsist doubts that they are the only self, then that's no longer solipsism, yes?
July 21, 2018 at 15:22
It's discrimination, I tell you.
July 20, 2018 at 14:46
You can't have your cake and eat it too. Just save some for later. :halo:
July 20, 2018 at 14:41
So be it. You can't have your cake and ice cream too.

Oh, nothing much, been preoccupied with the Tractatus thread. Been doing some deep thinking on myself also.
July 18, 2018 at 14:03
I have no clue what's going on here. :lol:
July 18, 2018 at 13:40
Yeah, I leave it to Banno to clarify the issue.
July 18, 2018 at 07:45
This is from the Morris companion:

Dubya, did play the idiot card pretty often; but, boy is Donald killing it.
July 18, 2018 at 06:36
Yeah, this I agree with. Yes, they complement one another. What isn't said is said through what can be said. Kinda tautologous. Please clarify. Thank ...
July 18, 2018 at 06:34
So, as promised, I'm returning to this post. Yet, I'm not entirely sure what the question is. If you could possibly specify further what you are askin...
July 18, 2018 at 06:30
No, but seriously, please report posts more often, and if possible can we add a disclaimer as to what specifically is being reported, to ease the live...

Boaty McBoatface, my distant cousin, is sailing the seven seas. Everyone wish him well.
July 18, 2018 at 05:51
Well, I still encourage the draft thread to be utilized. In practice, it would indeed be too burdensome on any team of moderators to sort out through ...
July 18, 2018 at 05:48
Yes, I think that was the intent, but got carried away with targeting a harmless sheep that psychology is.
July 18, 2018 at 05:39
Take: 2.1513 According to this view the depicting relation which makes it a picture, also belongs to the picture. 2.172 The picture, however, cannot d...
July 16, 2018 at 18:32
I'll get back to you on that.
July 16, 2018 at 18:23
I'm not quite sure; but, I have the feeling that Wittgenstein deviated from Frege and Russell. I don't think there is much isomorphism due to not asso...
July 16, 2018 at 18:23
This could use some expanding on. What do you think?
July 16, 2018 at 17:13
Well, going back to 1.1, The world is the totality of facts, not of things. So, no. Pictures don't represent things, but facts. About sense, I'm not q...
July 16, 2018 at 17:12
To answer this better here is a passage from the companion I'm using, which should clarify the issue:
July 16, 2018 at 16:48
I hope this clarifies the issues we've been having about states of affaris and atomic facts, @"Srap Tasmaner" https://i.imgur.com/p0xaYfr.png
July 16, 2018 at 16:38
I'm going to upload the companion I'm using, which is excellent. Anyone else welcome to refer to it too, as we go along. Any other companions welcome.
July 16, 2018 at 15:50
So, the Roman Catholic Church has lost it's mojo or what? :lol:
July 16, 2018 at 15:37
I'm in agreement here. I just wanted to highlight that there is no infinite regress here, which presupposes substance in the form of atomic facts comp...
July 16, 2018 at 15:23
Sorry for being ambiguous. I meant to affirm the former you're talking about.
July 15, 2018 at 21:19
As far as I understand, Wittgenstein uses the terms existent and non-existent, so we might want to stick with that; but, yes-I think so.
July 15, 2018 at 21:02
Cool!
July 15, 2018 at 17:29
Thanks for the insightful comment. I really like the Buddhist slant, though, that wasn't my intention in posting the OP. But, I guess it can make sens...
July 15, 2018 at 17:29
What do you mean by that last part? I'm unsure.
