CATCH OF THE DAY 🤤 There’s little more exhilarating than feeling a tug at your line and battling to reel in a fish.💥🎣 Whether it’s the one that got away or your biggest catch ever, either way, the highlight is the heart-racing thrill of the chase.🤩 To pursue someone we desire is much like fishing.🤤 Sartre warns that this turns people into an object to be possessed.🥺 Though different to hooking a fish, we want the object of ...

PRACTICED AND PERFECT 🍆😍 When looking at what we know, philosophy seems to be stuck in the mind.🧠 All fucking facts and beliefs.🧐 But in life, most of the knowledge we use is how to do things, not what things are. Like riding a bike.🚲 You can’t study riding a bike.🤓 You can’t learn from reading or watching videos.📖 Hearing from world experts does little good either.🗣️ You don’t use your mind to learn skills, you us...

CULTURED COCK 🛫🍆 “Truth is relative.” Essentially meaning, with enough work, every opinion can be justified.🧐 The idea largely comes from the study of other cultures, which became popular in the early twentieth century.🧭 At the time, the search for truth was focused on language, with great minds like Wittgenstein saying we can’t conceive of something we can’t talk about.🙊 But when other cultures were studied, some languages...

WANT TO PLAY? 🫦 💦 No one wants to fuck someone only interested in themselves.🙁 Even when chances of getting off are few and far between, acting like a selfish prick doesn’t pay off.👎 Why? Ask Game Theory.♟️ Hitting the bigtime in the 1940s when genius geek John von Neumann🤓 worked out the maths proof, the idea of Game Theory has been around since the Ancient Greeks. But it was Thomas Hobbes in the 17th century who set the sce...

SWING INTO SPRING 🍆👀 We can’t escape the seasons, that 23.5-degree tilt of the Earth means we are always swinging back and forth from the sun.🌞 But smack bang in March we hit the sweet spot: a time when it all balances up and everyone has the same length day.🌗 The equinox welcomed in spring and became one of the biggest parties of the year.🎉 It was such a big fucking deal that the Pyramids of Giza, the Angkor Wat temple in Cambod...

GET YOUR HANDS DIRTY 🫶🌱💦 It’s a fucking understatement to say a lot has changed in the last few generations.😛 A hundred years ago, if you lived outside of a dense city centre, you probably had connections to the land one way or another. You lived rurally or your backyard more than likely had a veggie patch.🌱 Today, you’d be lucky to find a vegetable growing in suburbia with backyards of domesticated grass, entertainment areas a...

MINDFUCK TIME 🧠👌👈 Go look at the night sky and think hard about what you can see. 👀 You may realise that you’re not looking at space at all but, actually, time in motion. ⌛ The moon appears how it was 1.3 seconds ago. 🌖 Venus, the brightest object after the moon, was 3 mins 46 seconds ago. The sun you see is from 8 minutes in the past☀️, and Jupiter, 33 minutes. Outside our solar system, Alpha Centauri is how it was 4.4 yea...

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY! 🩷🫦 Love as we know it is a relatively new idea. 💞 To fall in love, to adore from afar, to have a soulmate, just wasn’t a thing once upon a time. Why? Because we weren’t monogamous and could fuck anyone who took our fancy. Monogamy creates a tension between moral ideas on how we should live 🧠 and our primal instincts 👅, creating a feeling we now call love. 💘 We didn’t use the word love ‘til aroun...

HELLENISTIC THIRST TRAPPERS 💪 👀 ❤️🔥 The impression exists that the great Greek philosophers were a bunch of balding, tubby old men sitting around bullshitting while sipping wine 🍷, when nothing could be further from the truth❎ ‼️ Socrates was famously short and ugly, but he was also a fucking muscle-bound war hero who charged headlong into the enemy during the Peloponnesian War to rescue captured officers. 🙌🎖️ Pl...

IS HOUSEWORK SEXY? 🧽🧹 ❤️🔥🫦 Maybe in raunchy underwear 🩲, but generally, the answer is no.👎 Philosophy disagrees, of course, and sees magic in mundane dusting and mopping. 🤓🪄 It’s easy to kill the mood if you have dirty sheets, leave your stuff everywhere and get the place smelling like garbage.🤢💔 But there is much more to housework than clearing things away. Housework, or any work for that matter, transfor...

TOO MUCH XMAS? 🎅🥳 I hope you didn’t overindulge this Christmas, but then, that’s what it’s all about isn’t it? 😋 Pampering the senses with decorations, lights, carols and Christmas feasts. 🎉🍻 Lavishing each other with parties, gifts, and oft-times, new experiences. 😍🎁 And it’s something we’ve been doing for thousands of years. To celebrate the passing of winter, the Ancient Greeks held the festival of Haloa aro...
