    On challenge - On the Past

    You aren’t who you WERE or what you’ve ALWAYS DONE, you are who you are and what you do NOW + what Vanilla Sky (or Abre Los Ojos)’s got to do with it.

    August 23, 2018 - By Dave

    What you’ve always done, how you’ve always acted, how you react to certain tough situations, the guilt you get in certain situations is because you always have done it. It’s because you chose either the circumstances to cause it, or your reaction to whatever just happened. Every moment, from now, or after you react in a way you feel you always have,…

    On Nostalgia (for the ‘thing’ vs for the ’emotion’)

    April 17, 2018 - By Dave

    Think back to a time that was enjoyable (at least a bit). A time that you miss. Do you miss the actual thing, or the time in your life, or the person? Or do you miss the way you felt about it, or them? It might be that you are nostalgic about the emotion you felt (which, more often than…

    Missing the point? + A Deep Dive into: Time [pt.2] – Schopenhauer’s idea that the past, future NOR the present can be enjoyed assumes that the past, present and future are actually things.

    February 22, 2018 - By Dave

    Time is that by virtue of which everything becomes nothingness in our hands and loses all real value. Just because my dog Chunky gets excited when I come home doesn’t mean that he remembers me. Our view of nature is skewed in a way that if it must act in similar ways for us, or else render itself not useful.…

    What is Last Thursdayism?

    February 20, 2018 - By Dave

    The past is not an indicator of (and definitely doesn’t prove) the future. But maybe the past doesn’t even prove the past. Our perceptions and memories all twist with time, but maybe the past get can totally twisted in ways it’s hard to imagine… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SaLCdhj_5Q

  • On future - On the Past - On the Present

    The philosophy of Snufkin [pt.6] – Is the only person –and the only moment– that exists this one right now? There’s no past you, no past you, no future you, but only this one right now?

    January 2, 2018 - By Dave

    Tomorrow and yesterday were at a distance. – Snufkin There’s a theory that the only real you that exists is the one you are now. And the only moment that exists is this one right now. And that’s one’s now gone (ie. doesn’t exist anymore). You don’t live in the future (or die in it either) –you live and die…

    Why Time travel (at least backwards) is not possible – The Philosophy of: minutephysics and the Grandfather Paradox

    December 23, 2017 - By Dave

    Time travel’s a tough nelly. And largely because Time only goes in one direction. And maybe that’s enough to prove that traveling backwards in it is not possible. Well, this paradox from minutephysics is something that could make the whole thing at least a bitch to do, makes the whole idea a non-starter, and ultimately maybe impossible:

    The philosophy of: Que sara sara

    November 20, 2017 - By Dave

    If the past is the complete opposite of the future, then if the past is set, that must mean that the future is set in absolutely 0.00000000 ways. There may be a few highly probably things that will happen in your long and short term future, but there is a slight probability that you may be dead by the end…

  • On Providence - On the Past

    Things are the the way they are, there’s no other way they could be.

    November 19, 2017 - By Dave

    When you look back on forks in the road, it can be tempting to think, ‘If I had/hadn’t done x, then I wouldn’t be with/doing/living in y…’, but the only way things could have gone is the way they did. This is something my mate, Matt says – whatever situation you’re in, it just is. There is no ‘By this time,…

    What you haven’t been able to do has no effect on what you can (& The philosophy of: Richmond FC Coach Damien Hardwick)

    The past don’t define you, Even if it creates you. – from Illy – Two Degrees  Today, Richmond Football Club play for a spot in their first Aussie Rules AFL Grand Final since 1982.
