Leibniz was the dude that is typically credited with the ideas of non-contradiction and sufficient reason. P cannot be P and not-P at the same time and so forth. Everything must have a sufficient reason and so forth. I'm pretty sold on the non-contradiction piece. Meillassoux uses it for his argument and it is groovy. Meillassoux, however, is not a fan of the sufficient reason idea. In fact, Meillassoux has his own principle of unreason. In Hume's log on fire example it's like yeah, but oxygen, yeah, but thermodynamics, but what about oxygen? O2? Why? Why? Why? What is underneath? I don't know man I'll have to ask some scientists. I'll have to ask Meillassoux. Meillasoux says there is no reason for anything. I know some scientists and got at least 1 to read After Finitude so we'll see what she thinks. I also need some lovers of Kant or full blown Kant scholars to read After Finitude to see what they think about the correlationist vs speculative materialist situation. |

I have Busuu, I have the Anki flashcards, I have the Language Transfer content, I am looking to do like 2-3 italki sessions per week... I'm looking to survive Paris in about 3 months. But in reality I may never go to Paris again. Speaking of Paris it's tough to tell over here what exactly is going on over there. Moving to Paris is a pipedream. And I don't really have a choice where I live, at least not yet, at least not for 12 years. I will move to Ohio and that is really the only choice I have. It will not be my spiritual and intellectual homeland but that is ok. I can still access my culture through the internet and there is a good library nearby.
Who knows if this little flourish of French will stick? I don't think I actually have the motivation to keep it up. I'll just have to make it a habit and a custom. It would be so much easier to touch up my German and move to Berlin (another pipedream). I think very few people dream of moving to Ohio. It's not bad. I'll be near family and some friends. The outlook there is brighter than my existence here. I've let my existence here get a little out of hand. I'm just lucky I'm content with going on walks, reading philosophy, and doing math problems all day. |

Je veille
avec les chouettes
J'écoute battre le silence
Mon âme guette
Je contemple l'essence du vivant
Mon esprit erre
Je flâne
pour
pour
quelque chose, rien
Me faire revivre |

Je suis le prince des rats
Je trotte dans les souterrains à la recherche de pain
En chaque miette, je trouve ma force |

Je suis las comme un paresseux
Je me balade dans la gadoue
J'ai perdu ma chaussure
Que ferai-je?
La chaussure est perdue
Que ferai-je?
Je n'en peux plus
Je dormirai dans la boue
Que la vase m'engloutisse
Laisse-moi dormir pendant deux jours
Le bourbier sera mon tombeau
Et la nuit suivante, je ressusciterai comme un vampire
Et je me nourrirai du sang de ton cœur |

Je vais te manger le cœur
Accompagnez-le d’un vin rouge de Bourgogne
Boire environ vingt verres
Puis vingt verres de plus
Je suis soûl
J’ai retrouvé mon âme
Je marche sur le monde
Ne t'inquiète pas, ce sera bientôt fini
Il s'est évanoui couvert de vomi
Il flotte un parfum de cœur et de Bourgogne
Pour cette nuit, il s'est éteint |

Je flâne, mélancolique, parmi les feuilles d’or
Mon esprit s'égare au souffle de l'automne
Je regarde fixement les tombes dans le cimetière
Un jour, ce sera mon tour
Reposer avec les vers
Manger les pissenlits par la racine
C'est comme ça
C'est la vie, c'est la mort
Un toast à l'existence
Jusqu’à l'extinction des nôtres

une journée à la plage
sentir la brise, observer les oiseaux
trois mouettes et un pigeon
une peste de quiscales
je marche tout doucement
le ciel est d'un bleu éclatant
nul nuage à l'horizon
le seul blanc est la mouette en quête de nourriture
ma faim finit par m'entraîner, moi aussi, dans une quête
l’heure du déjeuner est passée
je veux du pain comme la mouette |

God is good?
x is an element of A
A = {... African children working in cobalt mines, Africans getting their eyes eaten by flies, Chinese sweat shop workers ...}
That's a LARGE set of human sufferers.
Maybe there is a God but if so it is not good. Maybe there is not a God. Maybe someday there will be a just, loving God. |

Around 75 billion chickens are slaughtered globally each year for meat. |

I would like to believe in a future just, loving God that resurrects trillions of chickens and puts them in chicken fun parks where the factory farms used to be. |

Chillin' killin' some time before dinner listenin' to some Portishead in the crib. My head hurts a little getting through a bunch of set theory problems. Who the fuck sits around doing math problems at 44? I'm a bit sick. No course, no instructor, just me and my math problems. I basically just did math problems and read philosophy all day. I'm kind of intellectually spent which never happens to me. I am usually always hungry for more. Now, I want to scroll Reddit or watch some stupid tv show. But I won't. This is kind of a breather. I don't think I'll top my last post: A just, loving God that resurrects trillions of chickens who shit fresh lavendar.

dilemme spectral
Dieu existe et il pue
ou
Dieu n'existe pas et ça chelingue
mais
un Dieu juste et aimant pourrait exister à l'avenir
cela pourrait ressusciter toutes les morts injustes
sûrement les humains anthropocentriques d'abord
la volaille abattue?
Le Dieu juste et aimant ramènerait les poulets par milliers de milliards
le Dieu juste et aimant mettrait les poulets dans des parcs d'attractions pour poulets
et la merde alors?
le Dieu juste et aimant ferait en sorte qu'ils fassent de la lavande fraîche
lavande transfinie pour tous
a lavande plutôt que les fermes-usines
un Dieu futur, virtuel, juste et aimant, plutôt que la puanteur d’un Dieu puant ou que pas de Dieu du tout |

la vache
la vache mange de l'herbe et boit du bourgogne millésimé tout en se faisant masser
elle vit jusqu'à l'âge de 30 ans, où elle prend sa retraite pour manger de l'herbe, boire du bourgogne millésimé et se faire masser
ne voit jamais un couteau de boucher
