Where can I find Galileo's words about language?

That was shite. No idea what the big deal was. Although thank you for reading the book. You were appreciated just not the book.

Most people are so dead that they will argue at length that wage slavery is the only way to live. And start calling people who think this way as mad socialists... They don't know what is socialism.

3 and half hours in... WTF ... is going on??? Maybe I will change my mind.

$1.3 billion short against the market is still the most insane shit of all time

"Identification with the self." Whose identifying with the self? Wouldn't that just be another self? My identity is Consiousness! That still feels dualistic: there's "me" and then there's what I identify with. "I" lost me sense of self? Then who am I? And if the self is an illusion then how can you identify with it much less lose it?

cant finish the video, russel is such a dipshit.

Too many midrolls on this 30 minute essay someone else wrote almost 100 years ago.

It’s 2024, the movie is from 1999. To this day, I still want this steak.

Look at his eyes when he thinks about it, his brain works so fast and without a break

Hes the man

Listened till 5:22: 00, then went to Goodreads to see reviews. Since most refer to it in the horror category of sci fi I decided to stop, since things like Alien creep the heck out of me. But I was fairly interested and thought I was sort of keeping up with the scene changes and characters. The reading was pleasant. Thanks.

Fuck capitalism

Whole lotta words just to say he's a friendless loser

This is the living Socrates. Sapolsky is a smart man, but his ideas are complete nonsense. He ignores thousands of years of philosophy and comes up with his own idea of free will and disproves it. It's ludicrous.

I know this steak doesn't exist, but the Matrix tells my brain it's tender and delicious,(and needs a hat). Ignorance is bliss.❤

Thank you. Gonna find a way to save this to my phone!

Thank you. This is my favorite quote of all time.

Thank you for the upload

Some people describe themselves as "redpilled". I've gone full circle and now just want to forget and live my life in blissful ignorance. What else can you do really? Either drive yourself insane trying to keep up with all the words ills or just focus on controlling the good around you, in your own little slice of the world.

Im the one btw i can do magic and wonders and i can make a reality everything that was said on this video. Take care and find me Let the heaven begin

The peasants long before the enlightenment knew destituiton or poverty was found when one began to earn a wage.

Im confused on liberalism being credited with what actually was the glorious peasantry....artisans, craftsmen, guilds, and susbistence farming.

Thank you Jo Rogan

Did Joe Rogan bring anyone else here?

I love the concept or what the book is about, but I can’t with the word salad. Probably a character flaw, but yeah ):

Thanks so much! :)

In a funny way, this book (and a lot of Thomas Ligotti's work) has helped me immensely....I used to always wake up each day looking for a higher purpose, looking for the good in others, a connection with people and hoping that by having a big heart, i would somehow become fulfilled.. recently I got out of a 12 year relationship with a woman who I loved with all of my heart, missed, cried over, helped out, felt betrayed over, etc..only to recently (finally) discover that my love was never reciprocated, she in fact never did miss me and my love was only ever measured by the things I could offer...as soon as I needed help, became ill, or needed support; poof, she disappeared.. every time. Reading this book has made me realize, there really isn't an answer or ultimate "fulfillment" in life, there is no reward for being good or big-hearted, and there is no point in expecting anything like a meaningful connection or to find the good in other people. Now I say ; "f*ck it, I don't go out each day expecting anything good from the world or from anyone else, I'm just gunna be selfish, be isolated (master loneliness , because there's no point in having hope in connecting with others anyhow) and do whatever I want to do in order to feel these momentarily feelings oh "happiness". It's actually alot more satisfying than waking up each day filled with "hope", looking for the good that doesn't exist in people or in life, only to feel disappointed and exhausted at the end of each day. It's true that consciousness (as far as looking for a purpose or looking for good in others) is a nightmare, also having a big heart is actually a curse

I need that today, thank You <3 Long Live Chomsky

Hearing the reader drink and swallow periodically is very off putting 🤮 Mute your mic

Is the town Marseille?

Still early on in the reading and I'm thinking a lot of the difference in style with The Stranger.

the audio :(

2 hrs in and this is as boring as a hand job from R2D2 . Cold metallic blip bleep from the autistic inheritance of a blood sucking fantasy hero pumping legless sidekick.

"I know you're out there. I can feel you now. I know that you're afraid. You're afraid of us. You're afraid of change. I don't know the future. I didn't come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to tell you how it's going to begin. I'm going to hang up this phone, and then I'm going to show these people what you don't want them to see. I'm going to show them a world without you, a world without rules and controls, without borders or boundaries, a world where anything is possible. Where we go from there, is a choice I leave to you." ~ Neo, The Matrix

Brilliant book loved it. Enjoyment of the absurd.

*I always watch this on loop when eating steak.*

Wonderful stuff, thank you for the audiobook (:

Wow, my boss is more powerful than Starlin because of a dresscode and scheduled bathroom breaks

why can't they turn this into a movie already
