Isolde

I love how you’re attacking a person for a comment about a sawmill they didn’t shut down, and a president they didn’t vote for. All while completely ignoring the two parties in this article that have any true fault.

Apologists like you, are just as bad as the supporters, since you share the insatiable drive to find some other party to blame.

Also this is lemmy, if you were so into semantics, you would have thought about your comments a little more carefully. People who throw around the “you belong on Reddit” insult are just as pathetic as the trolls that are still over on Reddit. They have a slew of “communities “ if that’s what you prefer; for apologists. Why not check it out?

Explain how Tylenol works.

I’ve seen that book referenced and recommended. Do you know what the main topic would be, for any wondering minds?

Just because there is an objective explanation to something doesn’t mean it is known. The human brain is widely a mystery even now, and to say anything different would be magical thinking.

That would be a fair argument if logic was a monolith, but it is not. My personal logic is not the same as yours, they are still valid and logical. Logic and mathematical certainty are quite different from each other.

We are also prone to overthinking, acting against our better interests, and a whole slew of things that are still interesting to explore. I don’t disagree, but there isn’t enough evidence to say that’s the only factor.

I don’t believe that there aren’t various scientific and chemical processes happening in our brain and things like this can be a product. However, there isn’t enough information about the processes of the human brain to say this is the only thing happening. The stories are interesting, and are anomalous occasions most humans seem to have in common more times than others.

I can also subscribe to the thought that acute concentration can help you put things together; but maybe there is something else as well. I’m glad you were at least able to piece it together.

Sure, and not everything that you intake as information is conscious. It just goes to show how little is really known about the human brain.

Crazy stuff, I’ve had things happen to me on a small scale like that. “I should move that” then something happens that wouldn’t have if I had moved it.

Yes, I’m aware it’s not rooted in mysticism but science. I still think they make good stories to tell, and most people have some experience with it.

I’m glad you’re here to talk about it! There were some parts that definitely had me rolling, like; why stand there thinking about whether it can hurt you or not? It’s a snake! I avoid them all. Also every time I see “lizard brain” it makes me giggle.
