The part about the World Cup I am enjoying the most is the fans enjoying themselves, win or lose.
I am pretty proud of my countrymen and women being good hosts and showing the world that we are not awful collectively.
Finally, I want to set up a distribution deal to get ranch dressing to Europe.

This is the prompt I am using:
"Overview of Arther Schopenhauer and his Philosophy focus on his influence on existential thought and his academic feud with Hegal."

Fiddling around with Deep Research from Gemni—I am asking it about Hegel and Schopenhauer's feud as University instructors and its influence on existential thought.
🏴‍☠️ 🐻
I will share my findings.

I am feeling a bit ornery today.
Here is a controversial hot take.
Foucault is a better writer than Deleuze.
There, I said it, now fight me!

Today, I have a new blog post about the 'manosphere' and how we could do a better job of getting men and boys involved in the economy.

The difficulty of growing up is made worse by people exploiting those pressures for fun and profit.

Enjoy responsibly.

Hello #philosophy people can I get some recommendations for books about #pragmatism ? I know Dewey wrote a few but are there any introductory texts. Some coworkers in Europe are struggling with the concept.
