what’s your opinion on nihilism
Baby's first atheistic philosophy. Built for edgy teens who had their first introspective thought a week ago. The problem is, people use the term nihilism to justify being lazy with their own beliefs - that's why u get a lotta dummies claiming they're nihilist, despite doing zero research on what it actually means to practice that philosophy (which is a lot more neutral on things than pessimistic)
Just because you gave up believing in a religion doesn't mean that you should simply stop growing either. The "I don't believe in God"-part of your worldview is the least interesting part, and it's not the finish line, that's the fucking start. Now you gotta figure out WHY things matter -- despite God, despite 'floating on a rock in the middle of nothingness' -- that's when you've put in enough effort to reflect on yourself, and not a moment before.
I think there are far more constructive philosophies out there that explore how life really operates besides nihilism. Just because we're 'floating on a speck' doesn't means shit, it's not like you nor I in our day-to-day lives can even recognize that we're floating on a speck, so it naturally doesn't matter to our daily lives, our cultures, our ethics, or anything, really.

“Those poor boys”
“She deserves to be punished too.”
“I’m not saying I support rape, but-”
“Sorry to say - she deserved it.”
“She put herself in harm’s way”
“But if she was fingered, then that’s not rape.”
“She ruined their lives.”
Pulling resources from the nearby dump was... Interesting. Signage indicated it was not only well guarded, but that it was routinely patrolled by workers and a public health agency. Despite that, nothing beyond wildlife moved past 9 pm local time. Useful to me, certainly, and I'm sure the owners of the dump will appreciate the fact it will soon be entirely stripped of all waste, leaving only their actual equipment and infrastructure intact, but probably concerning for the blatant misuse of funds and false advertising.
My first extractor won't do much, it can barely sort through a cubic meter in an hour. Thankfully it is both scalable and limited by my lack of resources, so I will be able to clean this site in a week at most, and start sending out mobile versions soon after.
What really has my attention, though, is the way my new senses interact with the cacophony of scents.
What I clearly remember was a noxious miasma of rot and filth is just... information, sensations and concepts I could never differentiate.
Here is a mass of good rot, almost usable for compost, save for the heavy metal tainting it. There is a cluster of oils, somehow having gotten into the main dump rather than the chemical disposal zone. Useful for me, being in the open like this, but it would have been a concern for the town in the future.
If only I could get some actual sun on my leaves, I'd be a happy abomination in a world unprepared, but instead I'm suffering under constant overcast skies. Despite being in the middle of Utah, of all places.
Ah, right, the salt flats. I should get a beacon nearby, salt is soo useful at almost every level of tech I can think of.
reblog with a spoiler for your wip with zero context. no context allowed.
hey so, some time ago I found a piece of Samus art showing her reacting with despair to a 23andMe letter showing that she's got British heritage, and the art style heavily resembles yours, but I can't find it in your Samus or Metroid tags on your blog, and there's no signature on the art, anyway does that at all sound familiar to you?
this was indeed me
It's also just a weird as hell take? They are literally saying "oh, more people might play our game, and some might play it longer... We don't actually want that money, thank you-"
Like, what? Isn't 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒇𝒊𝒕 the thing all these big groups want???
"we can't include {xyz accessibility feature} in our singleplayer/coop game because it would make the game too easy for abled people!" counterpoint:
i will kill you
it will hurt the whole time you are dying
Encyclopedia Bullshitica is now for sale through Barnes and Noble!
The first facts-i-just-made-up book can now be purchased through Barnes and Noble here. It's still available directly from Lulu.com, where I get about $7 per copy, but but Barnes and Noble can order it to any of their stores if that's helpful or more convenient.
If you like the blog, please check it out!
Sounds like a skill issue, but whatever.

My friend suggested I give Samus a more monstery form than my usual design. Here’s the concept sketch :)
Probably a terrible idea, but that won't stop me.Youtube: @FacelessEsper, Twitch: www.twitch.tv/facelessesper
