Why?

Discuss.

It is very hot here and stuff. Just be tolerant mkay.

I don’t think my heart and mind experience life in that manner but many people do.


Because you can only ever really do nothing for a very short time

Doing nothing is as good as not existing

Doing a million things would rapidly make you nonexistent.

I agree.

We need to be more accurate with the math.
Like for example, I could say the figure below is doing several things. But I could also claim she is doing zero things.
I could even claim that, including all the molecules involved in her being she is doing millions or trillions of things.

Well, let’s start with the obvious: those things that [objectively] all of us must do in order to subsist: obtain food and water, secure shelter, defend ourselves.

Which then takes us to this question: Why in one manner rather than another?

Which [ultimately] takes us to this question: why choose to exist at all?

And you all know where that takes me: dasein, conflicting goods, political economy.

Anyone care to go there? :wink: :laughing: :wink:

Not counting Turd of course. :animals-chickencatch:

Doing nothing is dying.

Doing too many things at once backfires, that is true.

Hmm…

Makes me wonder why you put this in the philosophy forum at all? :wink:

Fixed Cross, it is pleasant that you were able to express complex ideas with few words.

I see Pandora, Arcturus and Jakob on that pic.

Ive 7 younger siblings.

And I work with non English speaking children.

Wow! You must be a real dynamo. :mrgreen:
Are you the little Duracell bunny who never stops?

Doing nothing when an individual is usually swamped/has much to do can feel like/be like a mini vacation.

Perhaps you might define what you mean by that from your perspective.

:laughing: Can you elaborate on that, Magnus?
That was funny.
