Today we're finally living in the year 2025. I know for some people it's just another year but the fact that I've lived to see 1/4 of a century finished feels significant. What has the 21st century meant to you? How do you feel or think about the 21st century?
Kinda dark, but yesterday I received a birthday notice for someone who died 5 years ago. Nobody deleted his social net page. So the system doesn't know he's dead.
It got me thinking about how one day, everything we have written down, all the memories and texts, will be nothing but a memory...
Solutions require a void.
For example: when I used to live in a block of flats, we had to put out the communal bins for the bin collection on a Tuesday. One person in the building was doing it for everyone because nobody else was doing it. He complained about it all the time and said we should...

My friend and I have this joke: "We can't afford meat, but at least we have a brain!"
We live in a country where shit is shit. We keep joking about upper classes or truly better countries complaining about minor stuff. I mean, where I'm from is an illegal state where a minister is...
Horrible fucking title, I'm bad at this.
So, I've been told that I live like a monk, hermit, crusader, etc. They call it "hunger amidst plenty". Just recently, in philosophy class, we learnt the definition of "asceticism". I technically knew it, but my former classes had made it something so...
Like many people on this forum, much of my life has been defined by a search for meaning and fulfilment. I've read many books, both ancient and modern, trying to find a philosophy or world view that accords with a percieved "correct" way of how one ought to live their life.

Me personally, from various webpages I've accidentally went through, some from https://www.debunkingskeptics.com/ (which I still don't know how to navigate their website), and other things,I still...
My alarm went off while the sun rested just below the horizon. The night before I had that craving I get when I am still for too long, to run like all hell until my legs can't take it any more. I don't normally run, and though I'm fit from years of sport as a teenager, these last few years I...
I'm sure many of you can remember the day you dedicated your life to something, or made such an impactful decision in your life that was supposed to change it forever. And as time moved on; things changed, ideas shifted, you met someone who opened your mind to other experiences, possibilities...
Yeah I'm copying @SomaSpice as quite frankly I feel unless I declare this publicly and put down some collateral then I'll not commit to this as well as I want to.
2020-2021 weren't the greatest years for me, while I did achieve a lot I slipped up in some areas too, and I feel it has affected...
