This board is dedicated to philosophy and the meaning of being, specifically absurdism, though any kind of philosophical discussion is allowed.

Men make their own history, but they do not make it as they please; they do not make it under self-selected circumstances, but under circumstances existing already, given and transmitted from the past. The tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living.
We'd be wise to listen to the voices that shaped us, but we'd be fools to pretend they were right about much.

What is a definition? Is it simply the determining or settling of something? Or a statement of the
meaning of a word, or word group? Or is it something else?
Is it also a.. Deaf Phoenician?
Perhaps it is more along these lines, because the Phoenicians and the Canaanites have defined
the way that we speak, and the way that we listen or hear each other.
“He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.” Matthew 11:15
To be a Deaf Phoenician means that one stops at what the words are defined as in the
dictionary. Deaf Phoenician = Definition
It doesn’t look into the deeper etymology or phonics into what the word is actually saying.
Etymology + Phonics
It is my intent to give you, the listener, a key. A key that has been hidden by the secret societies
of the world. Such as the Knights Templar.
In fact.. Templar is Spanish for “Key”
A key is a means to open something that is locked, and once you have the key to unlock these
secrets, everything will start to make sense

First, one has to understand the basic definitions of the words being looked at.
1. Definitions need to be understood.
Secondly, the etymology will have to be looked at as well, which is basically the study of the
origins of the word.
2. Etymology of the words needs to be studied.
Thirdly, the phonics will have to be used, and this is where the Phoenicians are tied into
phonics. Thus Phoenicians - phonics.
3. Phonics is utilized in everything.
..And that’s where we get Phoenix from or talking on the phone. Thus the Phoenicians gave us
the word for phone and phony when someone sounds phony on the phone.
PHOENICians = Phoenix
PHOENician = Phone = Phony
Phonics are also how the words are heard towards us. Such as word Sea. When you look at it,
it’s either the letter C, or Sea as in the ocean, like a sea, and when we see with our eyes.
C / Sea / See

First Example: Audio could be turned into Au / Dio whereby Au is the symbol used in the
periodic table of elements for “Gold.” (Element 79) Dio is Italian for “God,” Bosnian for “part,
portion” and Spanish for “give, hand.” Put tog, this provides an alternate translation of “Giving or
handing a portion to God.” This is connected to the Spanish word ‘Adios’ which literally means
“To God.”
An example of word-splitting can be given by using the word ‘Language’ where we would have
Lan, Gu, and Age. Language = Lan / Gu / Age
When we take ‘Lan’ in it’s Chinese and Vietnamese context, it’s actually a feminine name for
“orchid.” But in Vietnamese, with an accent over the ‘a’ with ‘lán’ we actually have a different
male context with a creature called the Ký lán, and that was a dragon-type creature that was
said to only protect the noble ones, and it was also known as the ‘Qulin.’
‘Lan’ is the feminine Chinese and Vietnamese name for “orchid.” The Vietnamese lán changes
this to the masculine context meaning “unicorn” coming from Ký lán. When Ký lán is translated
from Vietnamese to Latin we get the word “unicornis.”

We are going to first look at the process of commerce as pertaining to the Phoenicians who
were known as the great merchants of the sea, and why this process with all of its complex
implications continues unabated to this day, albeit for very sinister reasons as will be shown.
Let’s first look at how one is born into the world, or “whirled” into the world. Why are we
“whirled”? First off, from a pedantic perspective this should be obvious since the world is
‘whirled’ on its axis. The writers of the matrix movies also knew why because the main character
Neo is actually derived from the Latin word ‘neo’ that means “spin, weave,” or “produce by
spinning.” How this process works in our reality is similar to the way the “colors” on a DVD
movie are read by the DVD player. Each color is separated and read at different intervals of
time. This is in exact correlation to the different “distances” of each planet from the sun, and the
different lengths of “time” each planet takes to whirl around its own axis while also being spun
around the sun.
The sun is the centrifugal force which each body is forced to be pulled and pushed away from.
This separation works in a seven step process which is why there are seven major planets that
give us the seven days of the week. There are seven notes in a mode of music and we also see

That's the best time to whistle.
Sophia has been proven to be a solipsistic bitch, who never fails to depress. Once delving into her affairs, there's little to no self insertion within all of her since she's been with practically everyone.
I prefer Eris, because she's been rejected for her chaos, which is so much more applicable for me to insert myself into(ba-dum-tss) for the simple reason that through the ever changing nature of chaos one can find oneself. Having to relate to something of an everchanging nature brings up common themes and problems which ultimately are the product of -pope-. 
So my preference is waifu Eris over basic vitch Sophie any day.

Allowed by nature, blocked by society. Is it always a smart idea to do it? Hell no! I believe that it's okay as long as it doesn't harm the others. Gotta let the stupid kill themselves.

Good for you?
Utilitarians don't generally care about whether you act in a reasonable manner, as ligas you don't hurt someone.

Of course, utilitarianism doesn't deal well with the fact that your actions have unpredictable consequences. What if the added train you put on the sewer system by eating exclusively bacon eventually leads to a catastrophic sanitation issue that wouldn't happen otherwise? You just don't know, and being a dumbass doesn't generally excuse you from acting ethically.

Deontologists, on the other hand, have this ides that ethics comes from reason, so almost by definition you have to be reasonable to act ethically. Of course this also falls apart because no being can be completely reasonable; even the choice to be reasonable is inherently unreasonable.

I think the answer is to just not care about ethics as long as you're not doing something real bad.

Death is the price of orgasm, my friend. Life has many gambles on offer.

the folly/genius of any action or belief will lie in its unexamined nature. I guess the personal fault shows in the purposeness/ignorance of the action; whether one is truly conscious of their actions. Whatever that might mean.

My dreams tend to be foretelling dreams and gives me wicked deja vu more often than not. 
My dreams usually show me odd situations, things I'm about to buy, people I might meet. The problem is there is no certainty as I tend to forget as I awaken. I only remember when I'm living the dream

Lucid dreaming can function as an escape pod of sorts when confronted with a nightmare.

Face paint, of course.  I grew up in a family of traveling carnies, although I was never an acrobat IRL.  As a child, my parents had me doing mime schtick on account of me not speaking.  They started calling me Ladybug because I always painted ladybugs on my cheeks, and I still sometimes do (although I am not really a full-time carnie anymore and I have no idea if my parents still are).

I am not nearly as familiar with the Monroe Institute as I am with the Coney Island Amateur Psychoanalytic Society and their experimental dream films, but now I am definitely intrigued.
What are the implications of a carnie lifestyle for a would be lucid dreamer?
Asking because of how the kids like to say that the kids like to say liminal these days and being an outlier always in between gigs seems to be what that business is all about.
Had a dream where, in the last episode, someone negligently pulled a rope out of the ground at a fun party gathering, flinging me a lethally-high way in the air and me falling to the ground.
Wasn't hurt or notably injured but famed television vet uh doctor proceeded to run concussion tests on me just to be sure, (except they were very dumb physical tests that IRL would have made it worse, like rapidly changing direction kind of like running between ropes on a boxing ring). Despite the disorientation inherent to dreaming, I didn't fail any. Shit doctor, huh.

I wonder if lucid dreaming could have allowed me to be even more aware of the ridiculousness and tell him to fuck off and have fun.

The ignorance and laziness of future generations has irreparably made our entire planet and its atmosphere toxic. There's no cleaning all this up. How the fuck are you going to get even half the nanoplastics out of the wind? How will we get them out of our muscle tissue?
I think the answer is that we don't.

Recall the final scene of Dr. Strangelove. The doomsday nuclear fallout vision is just a faster-acting poison than the environment Earth was already in. That final scene, where they have accepted the doomed future and explore options for preserving humanity, feels more familiar than I ever knew it would. The only difference is, at least they're still uncontaminated.

But consider their solution - bunkering. We can create a sterile environment, ideally on land but perhaps it must be under the surface or even in space. If done properly, maybe we could even decontaminate our species and others within a generation or two. But in our arrogance, if we were to be isolated in deep Earth or space, we would probably only preserve the species we've decided we like or need, which we decide are valuable, and leave the rest to fend for themselves. The chaos of evolution will be left for dead. How long will it take life it rebuild a character after that?

The best decontamination I could hope for is for

Please reference myco-remediation. 
There are scientists working to find viable solutions. The most viable are using fungus or bacteria to digest the plastics. 
I believe that a big major downside is that the digestion process of micro plastics produces toxic byproducts. 
I assume in two or three generations that people will come down with bacterial and fungal infections that could be deadly because the bacteria and fungus are digesting the micro plastics in your muscle tissue leaving a buildup of toxins.
They would sure like to have to select a bunch of their buddies and a whole lot of fertile women to repopulate the human race with. No more constituents or nations to deal with, just your little underground fiefdom and your harem. What a horrible burden for them.

>decontamination
not possible. Those few humans that are still fertile with microplastics in their reproductive organs will inherit the future. The demographic cliff might even be advantagenous, since it's easier to feed a smaller population. Dumbasses will fight, losers will lose, Discordians will laugh and some of us will survive, probably.

I have been wracking my brain over this site and it makes me confused. I have spun. I have meditated. Still I am confused. Hail Eris?

I cannot bring myself to see the difference Hesiod as so eloquently put. I feel like he perhaps did suffer from indigestion. To me, the goddess Eris is a bitchy mix of both those deities he has described. 

Further more, the internet consensus seems to be right: that the Roman's had right all along; as they lacked to make a distinct difference between Discordia and Discordia. 

I wonder, then, if there is a distinct difference between Aneris and Harmonia/Concordia

Eris is one and the same, I blame the beekeepers for forcing a split, shepherds think they can force you into a pen by splitting an entity of chaos, like what?
Worker be good, fighter be bad.
Nope, discord is just that - discord. It is objective, it will pass, but it's a recurring law of reality. Trying to delay it is delaying the inevitable and will just create a bigger apple.
The apple here, is a torus - as in magnetic field theory. Matter is the inanimate accumulation of energy, while Eris ensures for the animate part which is full of accelerating energy.
Through discordia, mater is split and tension is created, leading to released energy which can be harnessed. 
So sow chao, of sow and cow.

Briefly looking over it, I immediately noticed this website contained an error.
Nevermind the strange imagery, the passage from Hesiod's Theogony does not line up, as it excludes Logoi from Eris's children.
Ideally Eris would have 15 or 16 children, depending on which manuscript you trust to spell "Pseudologoi" or "pseudea, logoi".
This fact is laid bare in the rotation of the Moon Dysnomia around Planet Eris lasting 15.78 days. (Approx 3*5, 5 being Horkos's day of birth)
Moreover this page leaves out Hesiod's Shield Of Heracles wherein is described that Eris arrays the throng of man in tide of war.
We deserve factual scripture and dogma, not hodgepodge!
