he didn't refute it, he recognized it as an error in the logical faculties of the mind in that it is naturally employed in our logical reasoning but it cannot be proved via logical reasoning. OP is retarded and thinks he was saying that if you sit on the toilet and release your sphincter gold might come out, which is not his point (although not entirely contrary to it either). his point is that the necessary, a priori connection of your sphincter to whatever comes out of it in your reasoning must be an error and ultimately an illusion, as it is a chimerical logical leap, confusing experience and association with pure reason. He does not posit that there is no connection, just that none can be isolated and identified in pure reason, let alone one that clearly defines the cause and the effect.
kant of course offered a refutation of his theory, but hume was a genius for recognizing the issue, regardless of wether or not you think he was right.

I have no interest in defining myself by my mental illnesses, nor using the labels to justify anything. Just to try and get a greater understanding of how these things operate.

All except for BPD. I never knew what BPD was until looking it up and realizing it fits me like a glove. Then I remembered how a psychiatrist I saw years ago in high school said I was borderline, which at the time I didn't know what that was, so I thought she meant that I'm on the edge of something. I don't think I ever got an official diagnosis for it.

I'm going to take a bath tonight.
I want to listen to a short story while I bathe.
Can anyone recommend me any good audio performances of short stories on youtube? Preferably something with a philosophical edge to it.
Beyond that I don't care what the story is as long as it is good. I just don't want it to be more than an hour and a half in length. It can even be a nice collection of short stories.
