New posts today at ILP? Nearly 40 threads. A lot of activity of late. But the first 25 [at 6:30 PM] are not on the philosophy board. In fact only 2 threads are on the philosophy board. One from me and one from zinnat
I’m sitting on my couch, watching a video of the alabama/lsu game while smoking a bong and waiting for chinese food to be delivered. I was thinking of getting someone over here to clean the place. This is usually what I’m doing, I’ve seen this game about 130-140 times now. Or I’m in the bathroom someplace, bored and using my phone to post on message boards while I poop.
Quite the contrary. I still have any number activities in my life that bring me enormous fulfillment and satisfaction. And though I have health problems, none of them are even remotely life threatening.
Instead, for the few hours a day I come in here. And I can’t help but recall how much more fulfilling the experience was when the posters by and large actually did seem to love philosophy.
