  1. Having so much free time makes me spend it unwisely
    Having so much free time makes me spend it unwisely
    Yeah, that's why self-employment is so hard and most people just cannot do it. Because it takes serious vision and self-discipline to be able to lead yourself. Most people are sheep who suck on the tit of society. They need a boss just to tell them when to wake up, otherwise they would become vegetables.
    The self-determined life is not the easy life. The easy life is working at Starbucks for 40 years and then retiring without a single dream or deep thought about life.
    You need to have a serous over-arching vision and purpose to your life if you're gonna go it alone. You need to be a fuckin boss on yourself.

  2. Is Logic True?
    Is Logic True?
    @123456789 Take a closer look. They are all circular.
    You must break through the illusion of knowledge. No knowledge is actually possible.
    You cannot take science at face value in this work. You MUST contemplate for yourself.
    Even more fundamentally, all human language is circular. And science is a human language. You cannot do science, math, or logic without language.
    So really what you should start contemplating is, What the fuck is language? How is language possible AT ALL?

  3. Logic thread
    Is Logic True?
    You have to be very careful to distinguish formal logic from the word "logic" as it is commonly used in mainstream culture.
    Certainly formal logic is not what you use to run your life. Not anywhere close it.
    And even in the case of formal logic, did you know that there are an infinite number of different formal logical systems with varying truths? So which one are you gonna say is the truest one? How will you decide? By using some meta-logic? But then there are an infinite number of meta-logical systems with varying truths. So you'll need a meta-meta-logic, and so on to infinity.
    As Kurt Godel proved, no logical system which is complete is consistent. And no logical system which is consistent is complete. This is because Truth is infinite and cannot be captured in a finite set of symbols.
    Most people who tout themselves as being "logical" have no clue what logic really is and its limits. In everyday life the ego co-opts logic to commit devilry. Even the craziest and most deluded people think they are being "logical". So how can you trust logic then? You could think you are being perfectly logical whilst you are totally deluded. So logic is no guarantor of truth.
