wait people think the bathroom should be the same room as living/sleeping/cooking? what the actual fuck. like that could kinda almost work (not really) with literally one person in this multi-function room, but having families or groups live in something like that is just asking for increased risk of SV/SA imo. your horny uncle should not get to watch his niece shit. teenagers need private spaces to experiment with masturbation. a significant portion of adults and adolescents with a penis likely wake up with a rock hard erection in the morning, you should not have to go through that in the same bed or room as the rest of your extended family. i'm glad i'm not on twitter.

based kim training the populace to be ninjas with comically difficult anime training regimens (pulling trains, strapped to missiles, forced to hunt rats for survival, etc.)

yea, especially for military models of historical and real stuff.

even if i were to accept that, it only moves the goalposts of understanding linguistically. what is the soul made of? where is it? how does it interact with our body? these questions make sense whether you use the word 'soul' or 'consciousness', and regardless of your ontology

yes, i definitely feel that as someone that loves offroad vehicles and racing in general

hmm now why might a country like america need a bunch of air support so far from its borders all the time? most other countries seem to get along fine with only one or two carriers or none at all...

thats basically already what they are, most aircraft carriers have at least one other level on the inside where aircraft are stored and maintained, and there is usually a big paved elevator platform to move aircraft between the flight deck and the interior hangars

this seems true for pretty much any male-dominated hobby, men ruin everything they form communities around. its true for games, guns, history, military, sci fi, martial arts, metal music, anime, etc.. how do straight men even stay attracted to straight women, they gatekeep each other out of their hobbies (or rather, men gatekeep both women from 'men's hobbies' and men from 'women's hobbies'), idk how any straight couple survives without shared interests other than fucking. like the stereotypical boomer couple doesn't do anything together except eat.

also his ukraine takes

materialism resolves into animism when analyzed closely

humans = complex physical processes from whence 'human minds' arise as an emergent property

in other words, when a physical phenomena becomes complex enough, or has a structure of a certain type, it is capable of producing the 'immaterial' (in the sense that 'information' is immaterial, or is 'the same information' regardless of its physical instantiation in different media) phenomena we call 'thought' or 'mentation'

its a main facet of materialism that mental phenomena supervene upon/arise from/are equivalent to physical phenomena, are only instantiated in the form of physical processes

now compare the relative complexity, in terms of information processing instantiated in the form of physical processes, of a human and, say, The Sun

is The Sun any less complicated, in all its detailed particle movements, than a human brain? Sure, the structure is vastly different, but there remain regularities (homeostasis, even) in a dynamic physical process.

Is there any real reason to say, then, that consciousness (in its material conception as a physical process or emergent property of such) can only arise from one kind of physical phenomena (human/earth animal brains/nervous systems) and no other? What, specifically, about the earth animal nervous system differentiates it from EVERY SINGLE OTHER PHYSICAL PROCESS in this sense of ability to generate consciousness? What about the physics of the human brain would ever imply anything like the rich inner life we have, any more than a plant or a rock or a vibrating quantum field or a calculator or empty vacuum?

If one special physical process can mysteriously generate the phenomenon of consciousness, in a way that is difficult to verify in others in an objective sense even with verbal self-reports, how can we say whether any other physical process can generate this phenomenon or something like it?
